York Wedding Photographer

Real, Candid York Wedding Photography — No Staging, Just You

Weddings in York are special. The cobbled streets, historic venues, epic architecture, and that uniquely Yorkshire mix of warmth and character make it one of the most incredible places to get married – I’ve lived here over 20 years, and photographed weddings in York for almost 15 so I know it well! But what makes your day truly unforgettable are the people, the emotions, and the fleeting, unrepeatable moments. As a York Wedding Photographer, that’s what I focus on.

As a documentary wedding photographer, my approach is all about letting the day unfold naturally. I’ll be right there in the mix – not directing or interrupting – but capturing everything as it happens. The laughter. The hugs. The nervous looks. The euphoric chaos of the dance floor. I believe your wedding deserves to be remembered exactly as it felt.

Let’s Talk About Your York Wedding Photography

Whether you’re getting married in a York Minster-adjacent venue, planning an outdoor party near the city walls, or saying your vows in your own back garden, if you care about moments over poses, I’d love to hear from you.

I only take on a limited number of weddings each year so I can give every couple the best experience possible. If you’re looking for a York wedding photographer who’ll capture your day with honesty, creativity, and zero cringe—let’s make it happen.

Weddings in York – Why I Love Them

I’ve photographed countless weddings in and around York—from intimate celebrations at Grays Court, to full-blown parties in barns and tipis on the outskirts of town. As someone based locally, I know the city inside-out. Whether you’re tying the knot in the centre, by the Minster, or further afield in the Yorkshire countryside like Hornington Manor, I know how to find the best light, angles, and backdrops to tell your story authentically.

What Makes Me Different?
There are a lot of York wedding photographers, but here’s what sets me apart:

Award-winning documentary style – No stiff poses, just powerful storytelling that captures your people, your love, and your vibe.

Effortless presence – I blend in like a guest with a camera (often mistaken as one of the family!) so you can be yourselves without feeling watched.

International experience – I’ve photographed weddings across the UK and around the world, but York is where I call home.

One-of-a-kind images – Every wedding is different, and your photos should be too. No cookie-cutter galleries here—just your unique story, beautifully told.

Videography option – Want it all? I also offer a relaxed, storytelling-led video add-on so you can relive the day in motion.
