London Wedding Photographer.

London is a city that rewards curiosity – every street, venue, and piece of architecture offers something different. It’s a place where history and modern design sit side-by-side, and that contrast creates an incredible backdrop for a wedding. Whether at Kew Gardens, Claridge’s, Marylebone Town Hall, Trinity Buoy Wharf, or The Ned, each setting brings its own character and atmosphere. My approach is to document the day with an editorial sensibility, focusing on light, design, and the people who bring the city to life.

What I love most about photographing weddings in London is the variety – no two days ever look or feel the same. One weekend might be an intimate ceremony at Marylebone Town Hall, stepping out into the buzz of the city, and the next could be an elegant celebration inside the Art Deco corridors of Claridge’s. Kew Gardens brings soft botanical light and open space, while Trinity Buoy Wharf offers industrial edges, river views, and late-night energy. London has a rhythm that naturally shapes the flow of a wedding day, and it’s that interplay between people and place that I’m always drawn to.

My work in London leans into what the city provides: strong lines, bold architecture, unpredictable light, and a sense of movement. I document things quietly and instinctively – letting the moments unfold, finding the balance between editorial structure and documentary honesty. Whether it’s a black-tie celebration at The Ned or a relaxed gathering on the river, I aim to create images that feel modern, atmospheric, and true to the couple. The city adds its own layer to the storytelling, giving every frame a sense of context and character.
