About David Howard Photography, who are we?
First thing about David Howard photography is a camera coupled with the skillful hands of a keen-eyed artist can bring out the personality, emotion, spirit, and magical moments that may not be achieved through other means of self-expression.
That is the mantra that we choose to work with, and it has allowed us to capture moments and scenes in ways that only our customers can appreciate with wedding photography. And it has served us well so far, given the number of photography requests David Howard Photography gets per month. Simply put, we have managed to excel in a way that we consider a blessing.
How did photography start for David Howard well in fact when I was a little boy. My first camera was a Kodak Disc 4000 film camera. Compared to modern gadgets, this was a one of a kind camera. I remember its film was placed on a circular shaped disc, which stood out to me as very odd.
I also remember taking pictures with it, and even though those images pale in contrast with what modern camera equipment can do, later in life it inspired me to go into the photography business, and in 2014 David Howard Photography was born.
So that’s how I started, a starry-eyed teen with a passion for cameras. It is this passion that has seen me grow from an inexperienced young boy to the owner of David Howard Photography.
The main guy, the guy who owns DHP Photography, I will be the first person you get in contact with, I am that starry eyed teen from above with a passion to capture the world through a lens.

So I’m Jason, or Jase, I answer to either!
When I started taking photographs 9 years ago as a hobby I had no idea where it would take me.
I had my old iPhone and an interest in wildlife, and I set off to capture nature. As my interest and passion grew, so did my camera; onto a Galaxy, a point and shoot, and then my very first DSLR, the Nikon D60. And since then my interest and love for wildlife and capturing rare and precious moments has grown beyond anything I thought imaginable.
I’m in my element capturing a wedding and equally as at home capturing a bird in flight.
Since joining David I have to capture more than 100 weddings and given so many families memories to last a lifetime.

My children, Lacie-Jo, Dainton, Liam and Dakota. they are my world.
Armed with an iPhone and a love of capturing something a little different I set about snapping some images for my mother in law at my brother in law’s wedding in Zante.
Using my legs as the zoom (we all know how appalling the Zoom function is on phone cameras!) and trying to capture as much as I could, I went home from the wedding eager to invest in my own camera start a new hobby.
Then when my good friend Mr Howard complimented some of the pictures I began to seriously consider the option.
I was thrilled to be asked by DHP to assist on some of their weddings and events, and I’ve pleasantly surprised myself on occasion as well.
