I find as a London wedding photographer you want effortless editorial style wedding photography that makes you feel amazing but lets you focus on your day not hours of photography.....whether it is the chelsea town hall or st paul's effortless editorial style with edgy documentary is key
Style can be fun...

I love London, I lived in Shoreditch for 17 years. East London and London itself is my heart. I live just outside now but all my time is spent there where possible and most of my weddings are London based because I know it so well. If you want someone who just totally gets the vibe of an East London wedding or the chic style of a Central/West London wedding then yes I am a London wedding photographer who not only gets it but celebrates it
i love london style ....
When planning your London wedding you need to consider a few crucial points.
Venue, if you have booked one ive got lots of advice on this !
Reception, again from a few favourites like The Kings Cross St Pancreas Rennaissance Hotel for a big affair to Fredericks In islington for intimate affairs ive got the lowdown. Hair and make-up in London? Well this used to be my area ! so I can recommend many hair and makeup artists that will not only create superb hair and makeup but also brighten your day.....
See some of my recommendations for your London wedding planning a little futther down and if you want to bounce ideas of someone Im the perfect sounding board ..
From a Times style DIY wedding, to a wedding planner affair at St Pauls my wedding photography has been there, Budget is not the connecting factor but rather those who want stylish photos with a little edge but with a lot of substance, emotions, humour.
A selection of some of your london wedding's from intimate weddings at Chelsea Town Hall to Black tie weddings at Langans. Or fairytale castles in Greenwich.
My style of informal photos with lots of emotion are key, with fashion forward attention to styling details.

I no longer live in central London but it is my designated home and chosen city for nearly all of my weddings. I lived in London for 17 years I know it so well. You want someone that gets the vibe of your London wedding day. A shoreditch wedding is often very different from a west London wedding. The London wedding venue and the area will often have a vibe that you resonate with. Its being able to tune into that vibe you want that makes me and you kindred spirits. Although I naturally resonate with areas like, Shoreditch, Hackney, Clerkenwell, I have been many people in London. Ive lived in Clapham common, Clapton, Camden, Notting Hill and South London. I know London wedding venues well. I am a passionate Londoner at heart and I get it. I am hired from the uber cool affairs at Hackney Town Hall to full lavish affairs at The Kings Cross St Pancreas Rennaissance
Photography and video
Editorial, candid, film aesthetic
A London wedding photographer that is right for you depends on the style you would like. Each London wedding photographer has thier own signature style of wedding photography. If you are choosing myself as your editorial style wedding photographer my signature style is to capture your unique memories in a way that is fashion imagery inspired but ultimately timeless. I have a history in the arts and fashion so your images will have that edge to them. But I also combine documentary imagery which means very authentic images shooting funny, emotional images.
This wedding at the London Town Hall Hotel I would say is a great example of style, humour and authenticity.

Felicity and Andrew met in University and stayed together through it all. After 10 years of being together they took thier vows at the simply stunning Ftizrovia Chapel London.
They followed this with a classic London wedding routemaster bus. Whilst thier guests filtered from the bus to the reception I whisked Flick and Andrew off for more couple photos on the super cool streets of Hackney.
The reception at The Hackney Co. was loud, wild and super chic, well done guys !!. Thank you Flick and Andrew what a day!, it was a pleasure being your And huge congratulations
