London Specialist
Fun, joyful, and delightfully unconventional — I photograph London's most characterful wedding celebrations with genuine documentary warmth.
London is the UK's capital of everything unconventional. From the railway arch cocktail bars of Bermondsey to the rooftop spaces of Peckham, the arts-industrial spaces of Hackney to the Georgian townhouses of Islington, the city has more alternative wedding venues per square mile than anywhere else in the country.
I'm based in Cambridge and photograph regularly in London — I know the city's photographic character well. Whether your day is at a Shoreditch gallery, a Hackney pub, a Brixton arts space, or a Highgate Cemetery ceremony followed by a house party in Finsbury Park, I bring the same attentive documentary eye to every story.
Hackney arts spaces, Bethnal Green lofts, Shoreditch warehouses, Bow Quarter — the heartland of London's alternative creative scene.
Peckham rooftops, Brixton venues, Bermondsey arches, and the railway arch spaces of Herne Hill and Crystal Palace.
Dalston jazz bars, Highgate Cemetery, Camden market halls, and the Victorian grandeur of Alexandra Palace.
Notting Hill mews houses, Soho townhouses, and Central London's surprisingly diverse selection of hidden courtyards and club venues.

Anything that reflects your actual personality rather than convention — a colour palette that isn't white, a venue that tells a story, a reception at a pub or art space instead of a marquee, a reading from a film you both love. Quirky just means distinctly you.
Yes — you can see select work in my portfolio gallery. Every wedding I photograph is different, which is exactly the point. I can share relevant examples that match your vision when we speak.
Always. London has extraordinary portrait locations in almost every borough. I scout your venue area in advance and have suggestions ready for golden hour shots or quieter portrait moments.
Tell me about your day — the stranger the better.
