The Timeless Beauty of 35mm Film Wedding Photography


There’s something undeniably special about 35mm film photography. In a world of high-resolution digital images, film brings an authenticity, depth, and richness that can’t be replicated. As a London Wedding Photographer with a love for storytelling, incorporating film into my work allows me to create timeless, emotive images that truly capture the essence of the day. My natural photography style blends seamlessly with the editorial feel of film, making each wedding gallery both artistic and deeply personal.

Recently, I had the joy of shooting a selection of 35mm film photographs at some of the most stunning wedding venues: Iscoyd Park, Middleton Lodge, Kin House, and Prestwold Hall, to name a few. Each of these locations provided the perfect backdrop for film photography, enhancing its organic tones and soft textures. Whether you’re planning a grand London wedding or an intimate Cotswolds wedding, film photography adds a unique, nostalgic charm to your special day.


Why Choose 35mm Film for Your Wedding?

Film has a distinct quality that feels warm, nostalgic, and romantic. Unlike digital, which can lean towards perfection, film embraces imperfections—grain, light leaks, and natural soft tones—all of which contribute to its charm. The slower, intentional process of shooting film also encourages me to capture only the most meaningful moments, ensuring each frame is filled with raw emotion. As an Editorial Wedding Photographer, I love how film naturally enhances the story-driven, editorial aesthetic that so many couples adore.


A Perfect Match for Iconic Venues

Each venue I photographed on 35mm film offered something truly unique. Iscoyd Park’s elegant Georgian architecture, Middleton Lodge’s rolling countryside charm, Kin House’s stylish and intimate spaces, and Syon Park's grand opulence—each setting came alive in film’s delicate, dreamlike hues. The way natural light interacts with film creates an atmosphere that feels effortlessly romantic and timeless. Whether you’re looking for a Cotswolds Wedding Photographer or a London Wedding Photographer, film photography elevates the beauty of your chosen venue in an unparalleled way.


Preserving Wedding Memories in a Unique Way

Film photography offers something beyond just beautiful images—it provides a tangible connection to the past. There’s an anticipation and excitement that comes with waiting for film to be developed, knowing that each frame holds a unique and irreplaceable memory. For couples looking for an extra layer of artistry and nostalgia in their wedding photos, film is a beautiful choice.

If you’re drawn to the timeless elegance of 35mm film and are planning your wedding at one of these stunning venues—or anywhere in the UK—I’d love to bring this classic medium to your special day. As an Editorial Wedding Photographer specializing in natural photography, I aim to capture your love story in the most authentic and meaningful way.

Would you believe Katie and Thomas said the same? They didn’t want anything overly staged or forced, just portraits that felt effortless and in-the-moment. Their wedding at Town Hall Hotel, London was the perfect example of how to get exactly that. Thoughtful, stylish and completely relaxed, their day gave us endless opportunities to create editorial-style wedding photographs that felt like them, without ever pulling them away from the celebration.
