Photography

I booked Doug for my wedding after my sister used his services for her wedding. He offers a very affordable wedding photography package which includes an engagement photo shoot which is what I really wanted.
We is very flexible and was able to meet us for our engagement shoot at the park we loved near our home and involved our dogs.
We recieved all our photos (and there were a lot) a couple months after the shoot.
Then he arrived to shoot our wedding day and 11am and stayed until around 10pm that night. We were able to get shots of everything we wanted and Doug was very professional and personable throughout the process. I didn't have a shot list but he has done this so many times he was able to gather all the shots I wanted.
I love all our photos and we received the wedding photos only about 6 weeks after the wedding.

Doug and Krista were absolutely amazing!

I'm not sure that we would have had as much fun as we did on our wedding day without them. Everybody thought they were awesome. From our first meeting I knew that Doug would be the photographer that we would work with because it was clear to me how passionate he is about his work. He is highly experienced and that was very important to me. Doug and Krista made wedding photos a breeze they told us exactly where to stand, how to pose and it was quick! While we don't have the photos back yet as the wedding was this past weekend I'm sure they will be absolutely beautiful just as beautiful as our engagement photos.

One of the main reasons I was not stressed on our wedding day was because I knew I had picked the best vendors to work with and I knew they would work well together for me. Doug and Krista have lots of experience working with carmens and I think that made the day run more smoothly because they knew what to expect and knew what carmens needed. They not only did our wedding photos but also ran a photobooth at the reception. Everyone loved the photobooth and we love that we get a copy of all those pictures.

I highly recommend Doug Wolters photography for your wedding or any other occasion that might need professional photography, they're fun they're professional and they know exactly what they're doing. Thank you Doug and thank you Krista for your help and your energy on one of the most important days of our lives.

Good photos

We found it difficult to contact them, but service was great and value was great. Wish the photographer had suggested a few different things (asked if I had a nicer hanger for my dress-I did but in time pressure forgot to hang it on the nicer one). Angle of many of the shots was from underneath as I and my husband are taller, I would have done better with some shots from above (better angle). Still have a lot of really beautiful pictures. May have helped if they hadn't used one photographer for engagement shots to "get used to us" and a different one for the wedding who didn't know us at all. Joseph you handled us like a champ though! We really appreciate all you did!

Jack of all trades

Doug was not only our officiant, he worked with the Winery to find an alternative ceremony area because the weather turned for the worse. He practically quarterbacked the whole thing. He kept everything moving and did it with grace!

Meet the team

Doug Wolters
Doug Wolters
Owner & Lead Photographer

Doug picked up his first camera in 1983. In 1989 he shot his first wedding, and that started his career and he never thought it would bring him to where he is today.

Starting off in Sutton, Ontario, he ended up moving to Toronto to shoot freelance for a variety of different studios there. Throughout the 1990's and in the early 2000's, he gained a lot of experience shooting many weddings from different cultures. In 2002, Doug moved to Oakville and had the opportunity to manage an existing studio. This allowed him to familiarize himself with Hamilton, Halton and the Niagara Regions. This also gave him insight into the business aspect of photography that prepared him to branch out and start his own company, Doug Wolters Photography. In 2012, Doug Wolters Photography became a reality for him. The same time he started his studio, he moved to St. Catharines and began his amazing life.

Doug has been fortunate that his experience in Law Enforcement, his certification in American Sign Language and his love of working with people, have been assets in his Wedding and Portrait Photography. He has been able to build a loyal client base that continually invite him into their lives to capture their most precious moments. This is the main reason that his passion continues to grow and allows him to continually give his clients, past, present and future, what they need and more. Give us a closer look, you will not be disappointed!
