Why couples choose us
More than beautiful photographs
01
A calm experience
Guidance when you need it, without turning your wedding into a photoshoot. Most of the day we are simply there, and you will forget we are.
02
Destination experience
Comfortable working with international couples, travel schedules and unfamiliar venues — including the ones none of us has seen until the week of the wedding.
03
Professional backup
Professional equipment, every frame written to two memory cards at once, and your images backed up off-site within twenty-four hours.
04
Clear communication
Straightforward packages, transparent pricing and a simple booking process. You always know what happens next, and what it costs.
Our promises
What every couple can count on
Nothing is published without your consent
No blog post, no portfolio entry, no social post, no submission to a publication. Your wedding is private by default and stays private unless you write to say otherwise. A non-disclosure agreement is signed on request and at no cost.
You meet your photographer before the day
The photographer on your wedding is the one you spoke to, and if a second is added you are told who they are in advance. Both have read the timeline and know the venue. Nobody learns your names that morning.
A preview in seven days, everything in eight weeks
A preview set within seven days of the wedding, and the complete edited set within eight weeks — four for an elopement. Those are commitments rather than estimates. If we are ever going to miss one, you hear it from us before the date passes.
Your archive is kept, and it is yours
Full-resolution files, a private online archive, and a print release for personal use with no expiry and no territory limit. You are never asked to buy back your own photographs.
How it works
From your first message to your wedding gallery
01
Tell us about your plans
Send your date, location and a few details about your wedding. It takes two minutes.
02
Check availability
We confirm availability — usually within 24 hours — and recommend the coverage that fits your plans.
03
Plan your photography
We discuss the timeline, locations, light and anything important to you, and a booking deposit holds the date.
04
Enjoy your day
We photograph the moments naturally and deliver your finished gallery after the wedding — a preview within a week.
Local knowledge
Getting married in London?
What matters for your photographs here: the places, the hours and the practicalities — from planning weddings in London, not from a travel guide.
Portrait locations
- Primrose Hill. A grassy hill above Regent’s Park with the whole skyline to the south.
- Leadenhall Market. A Victorian covered market of painted ironwork and glass in the City.
- St Dunstan-in-the-East. A bombed church turned into a public garden, with ivy climbing the gothic windows.
The best light
- April to June. Blossom, then long green evenings.
- July to August. Warm, occasionally hot, and half the city away.
- September to October. Low gold light down the terraces, the parks turning, and soft grey days that suit the stone.
Popular venues
- Two Temple Place — Neo-Gothic mansion, Embankment
- The Ned — Former bank, City of London
- Fulham Palace — Historic house and walled garden, SW6
- Middle Temple Hall — Elizabethan hall, Inns of Court
Good to know
- Venue end times are set by licensing rather than by the venue, and they are firm.
- Short distances take a long time on a Saturday.
- The Royal Parks require a permit, applied for in advance, for wedding and portrait photography with a professional photographer, for a limited time and group size in selected areas.
The full London guide
Wedding photography in London
We photograph weddings and elopements across London — register offices in Chelsea and Marylebone, livery halls and historic rooms in the City, warehouse spaces in Shoreditch, and the heath and garden squares of Hampstead and Belgravia.
London does not photograph as one thing the way Paris does. It is a collection of villages that grew together, which means the portrait route matters more here than the venue does — and it is the first thing we plan.
London does not photograph as one thing the way Paris does — it is a collection of villages that grew together, and a wedding here can be Georgian stucco in Belgravia, brick and iron in the east, or a garden square that looks like the countryside with a bus behind it. That variety is the opportunity, and it means the portrait route matters more here than the venue does.
The light is soft and grey for a great deal of the year, and London is built for it: pale stone and stucco, tall sash windows, and interiors designed before electric light to make the most of what came through them. A panelled drawing room on an overcast Tuesday is one of the loveliest places anywhere to make a portrait.
The practical constraint is the city. Distances are short and journeys are long, venue end times are set by licence rather than by preference, and any plan involving three addresses on a Saturday needs to be a transport plan first.
The best wedding photography locations in London
01
Primrose Hill
A grassy hill above Regent’s Park with the whole skyline to the south. Open sky and long views, best at sunrise or in the last hour of the day.
02
Leadenhall Market
A Victorian covered market of painted ironwork and glass in the City. Even, sheltered light on a wet day, and very quiet at weekends.
03
St Dunstan-in-the-East
A bombed church turned into a public garden, with ivy climbing the gothic windows. Soft, green light and a calm corner of the City; small, so early is better.
04
Waterloo Bridge and the South Bank
The river view both ways, to St Paul’s and to Westminster. Best in blue hour, when the city lights come on.
05
Parliament Hill, Hampstead Heath
Open heath and long grass with the skyline in the distance. Feels like the countryside, with soft light on grey days.
Popular wedding venues in London
Places couples choose between here, and how each behaves for photographs. A list, not a list of partners: we recommend nowhere for a fee.
Two Temple Place
Neo-Gothic mansion, Embankment
Carved oak, stained glass and a staircase built to be descended. Dark interiors that reward fast lenses and defeat anything bounced off a ceiling.
The Ned
Former bank, City of London
A vast banking hall under a coffered ceiling, with verde marble columns. The scale is the picture, and it needs composing for rather than standing in.
Fulham Palace
Historic house and walled garden, SW6
A walled garden and lawns by the river, which is the rarest thing in this city — room outdoors that is genuinely private.
Middle Temple Hall
Elizabethan hall, Inns of Court
A double hammerbeam roof and tall leaded windows, in courtyards closed to traffic. Daylight indoors in a room built before electric light.
Chelsea Old Town Hall
Register office, King’s Road
Wide steps down onto the King’s Road, and ceremonies that run to a tight schedule. The ceremony is short, so the portrait walk afterwards carries the day.
When to marry in London, and at what hour
April to June
Blossom, then long green evenings. The most reliable stretch of the English year and the busiest.
July to August
Warm, occasionally hot, and half the city away. Light until late and rain on any given day.
September to October
Low gold light down the terraces, the parks turning, and soft grey days that suit the stone.
The kind of place
- Private members’ clubs and livery halls, panelled and tall-windowed
- Georgian houses and garden squares in the west, stucco and plane trees
- Warehouse and gallery spaces in the east, brick and steel and very different in register
- Historic churches, several with their own firm rules about photography during the service
Planning a wedding in London
- Venue end times are set by licensing rather than by the venue, and they are firm.
- Short distances take a long time on a Saturday. Every move between addresses is planned as a transport problem.
- The Royal Parks require a permit, applied for in advance, for wedding and portrait photography with a professional photographer, for a limited time and group size in selected areas.
- Many of the most interesting rooms in the city are in private clubs with restrictions on where photographs may be taken and what may be published.
Most London weddings are booked as Half Day coverage, from €1,450 for up to five hours, or Full Day coverage, from €2,250 for up to ten, with one photographer and a second available as an addition. A register-office ceremony and a walk afterwards fits our elopement coverage, from €850. Travel is quoted at cost, and exact pricing comes in reply to your inquiry.
Two constraints shape the plan and both are the city’s rather than yours. Venue end times are set by licensing and they are firm, so the evening is built to finish. And short distances take a long time on a Saturday — any day involving three addresses is a transport plan before it is a photographic one, and we build the portrait window around the traffic rather than the other way round.
Preview within seven days, the complete edited set within eight weeks in a private online gallery with full-resolution downloads, and a personal print release. Many of the most interesting rooms in this city are in private clubs with restrictions on what may be published; nothing is published without your written consent in any case.
More questions about London
- How much does a wedding photographer cost in London?
- We quote the UK in euros. Half Day coverage starts at €1,450 for up to five hours, Full Day coverage at €2,250 for up to ten, and an elopement or register-office wedding at €850 for two hours. Every wedding is quoted individually, travel is quoted at cost, and the exact figure comes in reply to your inquiry.
- How far ahead should we book in London?
- For a summer Saturday, nine to fifteen months ahead is typical, because the venues set the date. A weekday register-office wedding can often be arranged at much shorter notice.
- Can we elope in London?
- Yes, and the register offices at Chelsea Old Town Hall and Old Marylebone Town Hall are two of the most photographed steps in the city. A short ceremony, two witnesses and a walk through the streets afterwards fits our elopement coverage, from €850. Notice requirements are for the register office to confirm.
- Is grey weather bad news?
- No, and it is worth saying clearly because everyone worries about it. An overcast London sky is an enormous softbox: even light, no squinting, no hard shadow across half a face. The photographs we like best from this city were taken on days the couple apologised for.
- How do we plan around the traffic?
- By reducing the number of moves. Short distances take a long time here on a Saturday, and every address you add costs more than the map suggests. Where three venues are unavoidable, the portrait window is placed to survive the worst of it.
- What time does the evening have to end?
- Whatever the licence says, which is the building’s decision rather than yours or ours. Worth confirming before the band is booked.
- Can you photograph in the royal parks?
- With a permit, yes. The Royal Parks issue permits for wedding and portrait photography, for a limited time and group size in selected areas, and they are applied for in advance. We tell you whether your plan needs one and help with the application.
- Which month?
- May and June for blossom and long green evenings, which is the most reliable stretch of the English year and the busiest. September and October for low gold light down the terraces and the parks turning.

Wedding photography in London: your questions
How much does wedding photography in London cost?
Elopements start from €850 for one to two hours, a Half Day from €1,450 and a Full Day from €2,250. The final price depends on your date, location and coverage, and any travel is itemised at cost — we send an exact quote when we reply.
How far in advance should we book?
Nine to fifteen months ahead is usual for a weekend between May and October, and the most popular dates go first. Weekdays and elopements can often be arranged with less notice, so a closer date is always worth asking about.
Do you photograph intimate weddings and elopements?
Yes — often. An elopement or a wedding of a dozen guests gets the same care as a large one, with coverage from €850 for one to two hours and help choosing the places and the hour.
Can you photograph weddings at our venue?
Almost certainly. We work at venues across London and beyond, and if we have not photographed yours we plan it from the light, the layout and the timeline before the day. Tell us the venue when you check your date.
Do you travel outside London?
Yes. We photograph weddings across the United Kingdom, the rest of Europe and the United States. Travel is quoted separately, itemised and at cost, so you can see exactly what it adds.
How many photographs will we receive?
It depends on the day rather than the clock: a full day usually comes to several hundred edited photographs, an elopement fewer. We do not set a minimum, because a number becomes a target — everything worth keeping is delivered.
When will we receive our gallery?
A preview within seven days, then the complete edited gallery within eight weeks for a wedding and four weeks for an elopement, with high-resolution downloads and personal printing rights.
Do you require a deposit to book?
Yes. A short agreement and a booking deposit reserve your date, and the deposit is part of the total, not added to it. The balance is due before the wedding.
What happens if the weather changes?
We plan a covered alternative for the portraits with you before the day and adapt the timing on the day itself. Soft rain and cloud can make beautiful photographs; nobody is sent out into a storm.
