The moment I saw that hidden message notification pop up in my inbox… I just knew. Even before I opened it, before I saw Iman’s faded, fuzzy profile photo, I knew in my bones this was a wedding I had to say yes to.
And I wasn’t wrong. From the moment I stepped through their front door greeted by floor-to-ceiling artwork that wasn’t just visually beautiful but reflected the same values I hold close - I knew.
This wasn’t just going to be a wedding dripping in style and elegance (although it certainly was that),
it was going to be a day that meant something.
The tailored suit, the shoes, the library shelves full of books. Every detail told a story of two people with taste, with heart, with purpose. But my favourite thing about Jacques & Iman? It wasn’t just their impeccable style, it was their kindness. They didn’t make the day about themselves. They made it about the people they love. From kindly ushering people along during our street portraits in London, to stopping to say hello to their local dry cleaners, to the pure joy of surprising their guests with a boat trip down the River Thames. It was never about being the centre of attention. It was about sharing love, quietly, generously, and beautifully.
If you’re searching for a film wedding photographer in London with an editorial yet documentary approach then I'd love to hear from you! I specialise in capturing modern weddings on 35mm and medium format film, blending fashion-inspired portraiture with honest, unscripted moments. From Hackney Town Hall ceremonies to iconic London locations, my work is rooted in storytelling and artistic imagery.
What can I say … First, a huge thank you for these images. They capture the feeling of the day so beautifully that each time we look through them, we’re transported straight back. You captured the energy, the laughter and I am so pleased we chose you to be our photographer. We’re really looking forward to working with you again for the larger celebration in Paris later this year.
Iman & Jacques, Hackney London
