One Whitehall Place Wedding Photography

Elegant London Wedding Venues

Lauren and Alex had planned a classically London wedding and One Whitehall wedding photography. Starting with a ceremony at The Temple Church where Alex was once a member of the fabulous choir, and finishing with the wedding party at One Whitehall Place. It’s an elegant Grade II listed wedding venue at the heart of London. Documentary Wedding Photography can be challenging as a photographer. One of the reasons is having to convey a little of the sense of location in the photography. There’s often a link to the venues chosen by a couple for their wedding.  Knowing that is the key to be able to provide meaningful, story-telling photography.

The Temple Church

I headed off to South London to photograph the final stages of Lauren’s preparations, while Joan headed over to photograph the groomsmen getting ready. We both met back at The Temple Church a couple of hours later to photograph the guests arriving at this wonderful church, steeped in history. Alex had once sung with the choir, and became Head Chorister. The church recalls the circular Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. This is what gives it fantastic acoustics. It was in fact built by the Knights Templar, the monks founded to protect pilgrims on their way to Jerusalem in the 12th century.

Documentary Wedding Photography – Natural and Unposed

The circular design gave Joan a superb vantage point to photograph Lauren’s arrival. We could find lots of great angles during the wedding ceremony. It also meant that while we spent ten minutes after the ceremony taking some formal family group photos, we could continue to get some great documentary images of the guests.

After the wedding, we all made the short walk over to One Whitehall Place. It would be a great setting for the wedding reception and party. It’s another superb London location, with great architecture, allowing for interesting compositions. The speeches in the Gladstone Library were very entertaining. Then the party began in the Reading and Writing Room, where our coverage ended as the night was finishing.
