Tailored Packages for Intimate London Weddings
Thoughtfully designed coverage for small celebrations under 30 guests — no filler hours, no minimum headcount, just honest storytelling for the moments that matter most.
Micro & Intimate Weddings
A micro wedding is not a compromise — it is a choice. When you strip away the obligation list and gather only the people who truly matter, something remarkable happens: the emotion fills every corner of the room. Laughter is louder, tears flow more freely, and the quiet moments between the two of you become the centrepiece rather than a footnote. As a London wedding photographer, I find micro weddings produce some of the most powerful images of my career, precisely because there is nothing diluting the feeling in the frame.
I have been photographing intimate weddings across London for years, from stripped-back registry office ceremonies in Islington to candlelit restaurant hire in Borough Market and rooftop celebrations in Shoreditch. My approach is calm, unobtrusive, and deeply attentive — I move around the room without directing or interrupting, waiting for the glances and gestures that no one planned. The result is a gallery that reads like a love story rather than a schedule of events.
If you are planning a micro wedding in London and want photography that reflects the true character of your day, I would love to hear from you. Browse the packages below, then reach out to check availability and begin the conversation.
Choose from the Ceremony, Half Day, or Full Day package — each crafted specifically around the rhythm of a micro wedding. There is no need to pay for twelve hours of coverage when your entire celebration wraps up beautifully in five. Every tier includes edited images, a private gallery, and a full print licence.
Whether you are exchanging vows with two witnesses or celebrating with thirty close friends, there is no guest-count threshold to meet. Micro weddings are valued for their intimacy, not their size, and my approach reflects that — the same care and artistry goes into every booking regardless of how many faces are in the frame.
Personalise your package with optional extras including a pre-wedding engagement shoot, a second photographer, a same-day slideshow, or a premium fine-art album. Add-ons can be booked at the time of enquiry or included in a bundle at a reduced rate. Everything is discussed transparently before you commit.
All package prices are listed upfront with no hidden fees and no confusing variable pricing. You will see exactly what is included, what each add-on costs, and what mileage supplements apply outside London. A detailed quote is provided with your contract so you always know precisely what you are paying for.

Each micro wedding package includes a pre-wedding consultation, your chosen hours of coverage on the day, fully edited high-resolution images, and access to a private online gallery. Depending on the package tier, you may also receive engagement session credit, a complimentary print and a full print licence for personal use.
A micro wedding typically involves up to 30 guests, though I am happy to work with any intimate gathering regardless of size. The focus is on creating an unhurried, meaningful experience rather than managing a large event — so whether you have 8 or 28 guests, the approach remains the same.
Yes — I regularly photograph micro weddings across London, from licensed civil ceremony rooms in Mayfair and Shoreditch to private dining rooms, rooftop gardens, and intimate restaurant hire in every borough. Travel within Greater London is included in all packages; destinations beyond the M25 carry a small mileage supplement.
Absolutely. The Ceremony package covers three to four hours — ideal for a registry office or short licensed ceremony followed by a celebratory meal. If you need coverage through getting-ready or into the early evening, the Half Day package at five to six hours is the most popular choice for micro weddings.
There is no minimum guest count whatsoever. I have photographed elopements with just the two of you plus two witnesses, and I have covered gatherings of twenty-eight. The packages are designed around time and deliverables, not headcount, so you pay for exactly the coverage you need.
You will receive a sneak-peek gallery of 10–15 images within 48 hours of your wedding day. The full edited gallery is delivered within four weeks. For micro weddings with shorter coverage windows, delivery is often quicker — typically two to three weeks.
Yes — an engagement shoot is available as an add-on for any package tier, or you can choose a bundle that includes it at a discounted rate. A pre-wedding shoot is a wonderful way to get comfortable in front of the camera before your big day, and it gives me valuable insight into how you interact together as a couple.
I build a natural buffer into every booking and will never disappear the moment the clock ticks over. If you anticipate a longer day than your package covers, we can agree an overtime rate in advance so there are no surprises. The priority is always capturing your story as it unfolds, not watching a stopwatch.
Every gallery is delivered in my signature warm, light-filled colour style, and I also include selected black-and-white conversions for images that carry particular emotional weight. If you have a preference for a more monochromatic gallery overall, just let me know during the consultation and I will tailor the edit accordingly.
To hold your date, I require a signed contract and a 25% booking deposit. Popular London dates — particularly Saturdays from April to September — book out six to twelve months in advance, so I recommend enquiring as early as possible. Weekday micro weddings often have greater availability and may qualify for a small midweek discount.
Tell me about your micro wedding plans in London and I will check availability, answer your questions, and send over a tailored quote — no pressure, just a friendly chat about your day.
