The 5 best photographers in Malta who can find your best angles (Guaranteed!)

  • Portfolio Quality and Diversity: We reviewed these photographers' portfolios and evaluated their versatility and expertise in various styles. These include portraiture, wedding shoots, and lifestyle photography.
  • Technical Expertise and Equipment: We verified whether these photographers utilise high-quality, professional-grade equipment that ensures sharpness, clarity, and vibrant colours. This criterion also highlights their technical skills, including lighting and composition.
  • Pricing Transparency and Packages: We compared these photographers’ rates with other options in Malta to determine whether they align with the quality of work and services offered.
  • Responsiveness and Availability: We evaluated each photographer’s timeliness in responding to inquiries, clarifying doubts, and ensuring a seamless booking experience.
  • Specialisation and Local Knowledge: We prioritised photographers with a strong understanding of local environments and cultural nuances. For example, those skilled at capturing iconic locations, such as Valletta or the Blue Grotto, offer added value.

Malta might be small, but it’s packed with views worth capturing—rugged cliffs, sun-soaked architecture, and the mesmerising Mediterranean blue.

Even the most casual snapshots often turn out halfway decent… or so I thought, until a wine-fuelled sunset picnic at Għajn Tuffieħa proved otherwise.

Awkward selfie angles and my friend’s overly enthusiastic “photography skills” (including a blurry wine glass) left us with zero usable photos. That’s when it hit me: moments like these deserve someone who can truly capture their magic.

So I decided to find the best photographers in Malta who understand storytelling and fine details. Trust me, the results are worth checking out. You’ll want to bookmark this one.

How much do photographers charge in Malta?

Photographers in Malta charge around €150–€2,500, depending on services such as vacation, wedding shoots, or hourly rates.
However, there are also affordable packages and customisable options available for different needs.

Their editorial-style shots? All about catching those real, unfiltered moments that actually feel something. Somehow, this team blends art and adaptability as if it’s second nature, and the end result is always kind of amazing.

However, with their reputation as one of the finest photography studios in the region, securing a booking during peak seasons may require some advance planning.

    Captures natural and beautiful moments effortlessly

    “Couldn’t be happier with our choice of photographer for our wedding in Malta last year. Matt made us feel at ease and was so lovely and personable. He made sure we had a great time whilst capturing natural and beautiful photos of our day. He was also amazing with our 8 month old and 3 year old boys. The photos are just what we wanted to capture the love and fun we had on our wedding day. Also the wedding videographer Hush Studios partnered with (Ricky Bugeja) was just as brilliant. We almost forgot he was there as he wasn’t intrusive at all, however the videos are stunning and have captured so many moments we’d either forgotten or simply missed in the whirlwind of the day. Highly recommend both if you are getting married in Malta at all (which is also a fantastic place to get married).” 

    Exceptional storytelling through photos and videos

    “I decided to propose to my beautiful fiancee during our short trip to Gozo and thought we should have a professional to register this moment. Found Matt and David from Hush Studios on google and since the first contact by phone I knew they were the ones to make it happen. David who I spoke first was super helpful and refereed me to Matt to take care of the shooting. Matt recommended places and sent me the most detailed and accurate description of the spot I could have ever expected. Now, 2 days later we received the pictures and my fiancee cried all over again. Fantastic job! We’ll keep you guys in mind for our wedding pictures in Thailand 🇹🇭! With all our love and deepest appreciation, Guilherme & Kate❤️💙”

    Anton Bell is known for taking awesome photos, including artsy ones that are also super on point. One of the things that stood out to us was his impressive journey as a photographer.

    And it’s not just talk because his work has been showcased in The Washington Post, giving him international credibility. 

    His versatility is another thing we love. Whether you’re after an event photographer or a private session, Anton has you covered.

    We truly like that he even collaborates with a talented make-up artist to ensure every detail is perfect. And trust us, that extra attention makes a huge difference.

    Not gonna lie, Anton’s magic doesn’t come bargain-bin cheap. So if money’s tight, that could be a dealbreaker.

        One of Kyle’s standout qualities is his ability to capture candid, authentic moments—not just posed shots, but real emotions that reflect his clients’ personalities.

        Past clients often describe working with him as a joy, even during hectic events like weddings or unpredictable family shoots with kids. His professionalism, responsiveness, and ability to adapt to any scenario consistently earn him high praise.

          4. Precious Pictures Photography

          Address: Triq San Pawl, Ir-Rabat

          Operating Hours:

          Precious Pictures Photography specialises in newborn portraits, maternity sessions, and cake smash shoots to celebrate milestone memories. They also offer sitter sessions for babies who are beginning to sit independently.

          This is perfect for bridging the gap between newborn shoots and first birthday celebrations. Their work reflects the demands of a genre that requires not just technical skill, but also patience, care, and an understanding of a baby’s needs. 

          Rebecca, the lead photographer, has mastered all of these qualities. Her attention to detail is remarkable. From tiny handmade props to perfectly styled mini sets, you can tell she puts real heart into every shot, like she really wants it to feel special. 

          One of the details we personally love is discovering that some of the props are crafted in collaboration with Rebecca’s mum. This adds a warm and personal touch, making the experience even more unique.

          It’s worth noting, however, that the studio focuses on highly curated, indoor shoots. Outdoor or on-location sessions aren’t currently part of their offerings. 

          Pros

          • Focuses on newborn portraits
          • Offers maternity and sitter sessions
          • Uses delicate and handmade props
          • Warm and personal touch 

          Cons

          • Limited to highly curated, indoor shoots

            Gentle and patient photographer

            “We couldn’t be happier with our newborn photo session. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at ease. Rebecca was so gentle and patient with our baby, handling everything with such care. She captured the tiniest details and those sleepy little expressions we never want to forget. The photos are absolutely beautiful and mean the world to us. We’ll treasure them forever. I honestly can’t recommend Rebecca enough. If you’re looking to capture those precious early days, she’s the one to trust.” 

            Kind, patient, and professional throughout the entire process

            “We had a wonderful experience at Precious Pictures. Rebecca was incredibly kind, patient, and professional throughout the entire process. It’s not always easy working with a tiny baby, but she made the whole process feel calm and easy. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Highly recommend Precious Pictures to anyone looking newborn photoshoot” 

            5. iCreatemotion Photography

            icreatemotion-photography

            Address: Ta’ l-Awrora Street, Mosta, MST 2253

            Contact Details: +356 9960 0600

            Website

            Facebook

            What we like most about iCreatemotion Photography is how they focus on real moments, like the quiet glance between a couple or the chaos of a toddler. 

            For expectant parents, they offer the choice of serene indoor maternity shoots or scenic outdoor sessions. One client who chose to participate in both sessions shared their experience, describing the results as “uniquely magical.” 

            But if it’s newborn photos you’re after, timing is key. They recommend scheduling sessions when your baby is between 5 and 14 days old. 

            And if you’ve missed that window, don’t sweat it! The team works with you to find creative alternatives that suit your baby’s developmental stage.

            Once the session wraps up, there’s a thoughtful editing process where your images get that final polish. The studio will share the finished photos within five weeks, which is pretty standard for high-quality photography like theirs.

            Beyond personal milestones, iCreatemotion also caters to professional needs. They offer commercial and event photography services for baptisms, graduation ceremonies, and branded promotional shoots.

            Pros

            • Focuses on artistry and emotion in photography
            • Offers indoor or outdoor maternity shoots
            • Focuses on newborn photography 
            • Commercial and event photography services

            Cons

            • Limited timeframe for newborn photography

              Warm, gentle, and talented

              “We had the most wonderful experience with Francesca from iCreatemotion Photography for our newborn photoshoot. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful—so natural and timeless! She had such a warm and gentle approach, especially with our baby and older son. We felt completely comfortable in her presence, and she truly captured the sweetest moments. If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also incredibly kind and patient, we highly recommend iCreatemotion Photography.” 

              Creates timeless and heartfelt memories

              “Once again we booked a photoshoot on location with Francesca and we couldn’t be more pleased with both the experience and the results! Francesca made everyone feel comfortable and at ease which made the process really fun for everyone, which wasn’t an easy feat as we were quite large group. Whilst doing all this she managed to capture beautiful photos of our son’s confirmation that we will cherish forever!”
