When we feature weddings from the award-winning York Place Studios I always feel like I’m sharing something secret. It feels so special to be letting you into the world of these most admired London wedding photographers. Add to that the beauty of Colette and Rhys’s day, and I feel insanely proud of this wedding website and the incredible photographers we feature. Because York Place Studios is one of the most internationally recognised and respected brands in the world of wedding photography, they’re sought after by couples looking for authentic wedding photography as well as speaking at photography events worldwide.
So this is a real wedding with a difference. I’ve been scrolling through these stunning photos from Georgina and Kyle’s Buckinghamshire wedding, by York Place Studios, and it’s so inspiring to see how their day evolves.
There’s such a unique, beautiful story to be told – as with every wedding – and I love how you can really feel the emotions from excitement to nerves to joy to hilarity as day turns to evening. Georgina and Kyle had an amazing wedding. Documentary wedding photographers York Place Studios captured it brilliantly, and with a focus on people and personalities and connection, their images offer a different take on how a wedding unfolds. Because a wedding isn’t a visual leap from the aisle to the confetti to the reception to the dance floor. It’s a million moments in-between all of those.
Two amazing bridal looks. A gorgeous groom and stunning bride. Hundreds of really squeezy hugs, smiles and happy tears. Fabulous florals and a packed out, riotous dance floor. Incredible images to remember it all by… today’s wedding is perfection.
If there’s a dream team in weddings, it’s got to be York Place Studios and Stone Barn. I’ve admired York Place as the gold standard in documentary wedding photography since the very early days of English Wedding: they’re a huge part of the reason I love this photography style more than any other. Stone Barn too, is one of the very best: part of the fabulous Cripps & Co’s portfolio of wedding venues. Experts in everything about modern weddings, they’ve blazed a trail to turn barns into beautiful spaces for celebrations since the 90s. Safe to say Ellie & Alex made the BEST choices in their wedding supplier team and their day was out of this world.
If you don’t need a photo of your bridesmaids all lined up, this is for you. If you’re a little lost in wedding photography choices and just want gorgeous photos that are utterly real, this is for you. If you want to immerse yourselves in every second of your wedding day, and not have to worry about posing for photos, you’ve come to exactly the right place.
We’ve got a brilliant collection of images from Aoife and Rory’s Clapton Country Club wedding to share with you. But they’re different from many images you’ll see on wedding blogs and in magazines. They’re so full of life, vibrant and authentic. They’re by some of the very best documentary wedding photographers in the world: London-based York Place Studios.
A curious question: does life stop for weddings? Should it? In some senses, a wedding day is utterly different from any other. Having all of your favourite people in one space, seeing them celebrating together, meeting each other for the first time perhaps, even shedding a tear or two – is huge.
The rollercoaster of emotions you might feel, from nervousness to overwhelm to wondering if your heart could ever be this full of joy.
That’s weddings.
But there’s even more than that. Life doesn’t stop for weddings.
