Life’s too short to waste time standing around for endless group shots or feeling uncomfortable posing for pictures that just aren’t you.

When it comes to weddings, my couples tend to be relaxed and informal with a flutter of extravagance.

As an experienced Claridges Hotel wedding photographer, I’ll be there to capture all the major moments and the little things inbetween. Ensuring I capture the essence of your luxury Claridge’s Hotel wedding from start to finish, whilst also grabbing the important family photos, some gorgeous editorial style portraits, plus all the essential details of your tables, stationery and everything inbetween.

I’m there for the emotion, the happiness and the big dance floor craziness. Some people are seasoned pros in front of the camera, whilst some feel a little bit uncomfortable, but that’s ok. I’ve been doing this job for so long, I know how to make you feel relaxed from the word go. My Claridge’s Hotel wedding photography package includes a 15 minute couple shoot that will have you looking super cool and damn fine… no hours of posing, just beautiful, art led imagery for luxury wedding lovers.

GOT SOME QUESTIONS?


Of course, I usually tell my couples to have an hour of bride or groom prep so I can capture all the anticipation, the nerves and excitement before you say I do.

Lots of couples write their own personalised vows and this gives a much less formal feel to proceedings. It’s so much nicer to write something that is meaningful.

No problem. Your wedding day should be about you spending time with your guests – not with me taking hundreds of photos. My style is very editorial and documentary, so we only spend a short time on portraits.

Gone are the days when photographers were relegated to the back of the room. These days, we’re allowed to photograph you as you come down the aisle, and during the vows. But I always shoot silently and discreetly as possible so as not to distract you from actually saying I do! But I will be there to capture all the moments as they unfold.

A wedding wouldn’t be complete without confetti and Claridge’s Hotel is the perfect backdrop. Just remember to bring your own confetti and check with your planner for any rules and regulations.

Unlike a lot of photographers, I stay as long as you want. If you want to capture some of the dancefloor madness, just add a few more hours onto your coverage.

No. Whilst you will feel like a king or queen for the duration of your wedding, hotel guests will still be enjoying the facilities, bars and restaurants. However, the rooms you book for your celebration are fully exclusive.
