Shane P. Watts Photography describes its work as luxury wedding photography in Malta, aimed at contemporary, stylish and creative couples. Shane is a wedding photographer based in Mosta, and he has spent 13 years photographing weddings across Malta, Gozo and further afield, mixing natural moments with elegant portraits of the two of you.
For UK couples planning a wedding in the Mediterranean, one of the first decisions is whom to trust with the pictures. This page explains how Shane works, where he photographs and how to get in touch. He is listed in our directory of photography studios in Malta.
Shane's approach to wedding photography
What appeals to Shane about a wedding is the buzz of the day itself: the nerves before the ceremony, relatives and friends enjoying each other, and the brief glances nobody else spots. He wants your album to feel like your own day, with its beauty, personality and feeling intact.
He watches how each wedding develops. A few moments benefit from gentle guidance, while others work best untouched, and during portraits he puts couples at ease so they can still enjoy the occasion. Expect pictures of you both, the details you took trouble over and unplanned moments.
One point matters for anyone comparing studios: Shane shoots every wedding he accepts himself, with no associate sent in his place, so the person whose work you admired is the person you meet on the day. His tagline for the work is your visual legacy.
Recognition
Shane's work has been noticed internationally. Fearless Photographers ranked him number 5 worldwide in 2024 and included him among its Top Fearless Photographers of 2025. He is also ranked number 1 in Malta on MyWed. His own view is that what matters most is the reaction of couples who find moments in their photographs that they had not realised were captured.
Venues and locations across Malta and Gozo
Shane lists a long run of venues he has photographed at, which helps you picture your own day. They include Casino Maltese, Castello dei Baroni, Castello Zamitello, Fort Chambray in Gozo, Giardini Lambrosa, Lower Barrakka Gardens, MCC Malta, Palazzo de Piro in Mdina, Palazzo Parisio, Popeye Village, the Salt Pans in Gozo, Saluting Battery, Ta' Qali National Park, The Phoenicia, Villa Arrigo, Villa Bologna and Xara Lodge, among others.
Many of these are places our guides cover. Read the Valletta guide for the city that holds the Lower Barrakka Gardens and the Saluting Battery, the Mdina guide for the silent city and its palazzi, the Gozo guide for the island's salt pans and fortifications, and the page on Popeye Village for that colourful seaside set. For ceremonies and portraits outdoors, our Malta weather guide helps you weigh up the best month for your date.
Pre-wedding shoots and planning your trip
Shane also offers a pre-wedding shoot and a free mobile app with tips and suggestions, plus print and product offers from ILAB Photo. Whether your plans are for a beach, garden or destination wedding in Malta or abroad, he has said he would be honoured to document it.
Booking a photographer is only part of the trip. Our page on flights to Malta from the UK shows the routes, and where to stay in Malta helps you choose a base for the wedding party. Accommodation is not offered by the studio. For another wedding photographer with a Gozo base, see Anaca Photography in Gozo and Malta.
