Derek McAllister Photography

What can you say about Derek. Well he is very very good at his job. We hired him to do our wedding photos. Derek was fantastic, from the start he was cheerful talkative and very easy to get along with. Definitely knows his trade. He caught the whole atmosphere of the event. We would most definitely recommend him if you are after a professional service from the very start all the way through to receiving your finished photos.

Derek was amazing from day one. His sense of humour, creativity, passion and professionalism were evident from the onset. We perused Derek's work on display at a wedding fayre. Derek didnt push his services onto us, instead he let his work shine through and speak for itself. He was, however, on hand with the answers to any questions we had. We decided there and then that we wanted Derek to capture both the candid and poised moments of our a special day- to which he did. Our pre wedding shoot was so much fun. Derek made us feel comfortable, at ease and almost celebrity-like. We were jumping off and hiding behind walls, laying in grass, lounging on benches and attempting lifts which we had only ever seen on films. All of which and more, captured both of our personalities, key aspects of our relationship and were also so much fun to do. Our wedding day was so magical. Derek arrived just after breakfast to capture the initial moments of the bride and the brides party getting ready. Derek was a huge hit with the whole bridal party and guests. I think the bridal party will genuinely never forget the relaxed, fun banter during the morning. He totally blended in and so dignified with his work. At various moments throughout the day, Derek took charge, using his powerful voice to move people along or into place in an orderly but relaxed fashion.. all whilst taking the most beautiful photographs. Derek is so efficient and his work really is an art form. He made sure that we didnt take too much time away from the guests on the day but also enabled us to have special moments together. Each image highlighted a key moment of the day and some even fill in the blanks that were missed. The hardest part is choosing the photos for the album. Derek, we can not recommend and thank you enough!
