Wedding Photographer London
London Wedding Photography
As an experienced wedding photographer in London, I specialise in capturing natural, emotional and beautifully composed wedding photographs that tell the genuine story of your special day, from the excitement and anticipation before the ceremony to the laughter, love and unforgettable moments shared with family and friends.
My London wedding photography combines creative portraiture, documentary-style storytelling and professional lighting to create timeless images that feel authentic to you, whether your wedding takes place in a London town hall, luxury hotel, historic venue, church, private residence or one of the many beautiful wedding venues across London and the surrounding areas.

Why Chose Me as Photographer?
Natural Wedding Photography
I combine natural documentary-style photography to capture your wedding day as it genuinely happens, while creating beautifully composed images that stand out from traditional wedding photography. From emotional moments to elegant portraits and important details, every photograph is carefully created to tell your story.
Photography Experience
With years of Professional Wedding Photography experience, I bring a calm, organised and professional approach to every wedding and event. I understand how quickly a wedding day moves, which moments matter most and how to work discreetly while still being ready to capture your important life moments on photographs, emotions and interactions as they happen.
Professional Camera Lighting
Great wedding photography is not only about having a good camera — lighting, composition and experience make a huge difference. I use creative lighting techniques when needed to produce beautiful images in challenging indoor venues, evening receptions, dark churches and outdoor locations, giving your wedding photographs a polished finish.
About Me – Your London Wedding Photographer
My name is Raphael Carpenter, and I am a professional wedding photographer with over 15 years of experience in photography, specialising in creative, natural and beautifully composed images that tell a genuine story. Based in Kent and working across London and the surrounding areas, I am passionate about capturing the emotions, personalities and unforgettable moments that make every wedding unique.
For me, wedding photography is about much more than simply taking pictures. It is about understanding the atmosphere of your wedding day, anticipating those special moments and creating photographs that allow you to relive the emotions, laughter and happiness for years to come. From the quiet excitement before the ceremony to the celebration on the dance floor, I aim to document your wedding naturally while also creating stunning, timeless portraits that you will be proud to display.
My approach combines documentary-style wedding photography, creative portraiture and professional lighting techniques, allowing me to adapt to different venues, lighting conditions and wedding styles. Whether you are planning an intimate ceremony in London, a traditional church wedding, a luxury celebration or a modern wedding at a beautiful venue, I work with care and attention to detail to create a collection of photographs that reflects your personality and the story of your day.
I believe that the best wedding photographs come from a relaxed experience, genuine emotions and a strong connection between the couple and their photographer. My goal is to help you feel comfortable in front of the camera while ensuring that the important moments happen naturally, without making your wedding feel like a photoshoot.
If you are looking for a wedding photographer in London who combines professional experience, creativity and a personal approach, I would love the opportunity to be part of your special day and create beautiful wedding photographs that you and your family can treasure for generations.

Photographer Reviews


Raphael recorded my wedding in December 2018! I was a pregnant bride and understandably hormonal. Booking process was easy, communication was great and the footage captured the most treasured parts of the day. Would recommend 🙂

Really good photographer, Raphael was so relaxed and easy going and his attention to details was amazing while at the same time keeping all the photo's natural with no stiff posing, all the guests really enjoyed his approach to wedding photography and a couple want to use him for their wedding, highly recommended A++

Amazing photographer and videographer! Very precise and fun to work with. Would highly recommend! Value for money.

Raphael done our wedding photography and video for us 3 weeks ago. He was brilliant from start to finish. Very professional. Previously met up with him to have a pre wedding shoot and from the start made us feel at ease. Absolutely thrilled with our wedding photos and can't wait to see the amazing work he's done with our video. Thanks again for capturing such lovely photos 😊

Professionalism, sense, unique style, perfect pictures ! customer approach, patience, commitment, passion. Very nice and contactful man, and at the same time fully focused on his work photographer. With all moral responsibility I recommend Raphael!

his photos are amazing! I've been part for a wedding where Raphael was the photographer and he was great! & since then I enjoy seeing the wedding pictures he takes, they are all beautiful!

I would first like to say how amazing and generous Raphael was. My Photographer went bust 2 weeks before my wedding! I was in a right state. I put a status on fb warning others incase they were with the same Photographer. Raphael saw this post and offered to do my photography & videography FREE OF CHARGE! I could not believe someone could be this generous. But it was true, he arrived the morning of my wedding and captured what was the best day of my life, both on camera and film! he was very professional, he obviously has a good eye for what is needed as I loved the images. The cinematic trailer he did with my wedding video was amazing! I would highly recommend this man! He deserve every success.

Raphael work is second to none. Absolutely first class. He captures every single moment (even ones you wished he hadn't) haha. Through his photography we are able to relive the day through and through. I cannot give any higher recommendation and was so pleased he was at our wedding, not only as a photographer but also as a guest. A special thank you from us 🙂
