About

On WeddingWire since 2017

I'm Derek Couts, owner of Derek Couts Photography, a wedding photography studio based in Little Rock, Arkansas. You should want to live your wedding again and again. Happiness is evident in your life – your wedding photography should reflect this.

Too often, couples feel fake and fabricated. Abandon Editorial. Embrace real. Our wedding photography style is emotional, natural, and energized. You have our permission to cry, love with intensity, and sneak another kiss.

STRESSED ABOUT YOUR PHOTOGRAPHY TIMELINE?

I provide plenty of wedding day coverage, so you don't have to worry about missing those incredible last moments of your reception as you celebrate the end of your day with your family and friends.

DISAPPOINTED IN SPENDING A TON & ONLY RECEIVING AN ONLINE GALLERY?

We will sit down together for a reveal party (which includes drinks and treats), where you will experience your wedding day again through the photos and your wedding album. Each of my collections includes a wedding album design and album, allowing you to grow old with and always have your photos.

WANT YOUR FRIENDS & FAMILY TO BE ABLE TO RELAX ON YOUR WEDDING DAY?

We will work hand-in-hand with your planner. I'll take amazing photos while my assistant keeps up with your family photo list so we can get every picture you want. Your planner will ensure everything runs smoothly so you can enjoy your time with your family and friends.

NERVOUS ABOUT POSING AND BEING CANDID IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA?

I'm not really into posing - I'm into real moments and capturing them as they happen. Engagement sessions are complimentary because it's crucial we get to know each other and learn what works best between the two of you.

SO WHY HAVEN'T YOU REACHED OUT YET?

With over 100 weddings documented, you deserve someone who cares about your wedding experience as much as you and makes your dream experience a reality.

When you invest in me, I will invest in you. I can guarantee photos you will love and an experience you treasure for the rest of your life.

I cannot wait to hear from you.

Simply the best!

Derek shot my engagement photos and my wedding, and our pictures were so beautiful! Everyone comments on how he really captured the feeling of the night, and I go back and look at them all the time! I highly recommend him for any of your photography needs, as he is great to work with, professional, extremely talented, and just a really kind person who will add nothing but good vibes to the special time in your life. Thanks for the awesome memories that I get to keep with me forever, Derek!!

I seriously cannot say enough about Derek! He was the absolute best and I would highly recommend him for all things engagement and wedding!! If I had known him prior to my engagement he would have been a part of the proposal to capture all of those details too but from the moment we met him, after we were engaged, we knew he was the one who would help make this journey of being engaged to married the most wonderful experience ever and boy did he deliver! My wedding photos completely and totally exceeded my expectations and I fall in love with them all over again every time I look at them!!! Thank you Derek for being so amazing!!!

Absolutely amazing!!!

I have the best wedding photos of my lifetime. Derek took the time to get to know me and my husband before even asking for the business which is what initially brought me to decide to hire him. I never imagined that I would get the most beautiful photos of one of the most important days of my life. He made my day comfortable and natural and captured some of my favorite memories. His expertise, flexibility, and professionalism was everything and more. He was not only my wedding photographer but he became a really good friend!!!
