Weddings in Kelham Island, Sheffield & why I love them.

I’ve had the joy of photographing lots of Kelham Island weddings over the past eight years and it remains one of my favourite places to be. Kelham Island is full of texture and life which makes for authentic and artistic images. Kelham Island weddings are always super relaxed and joyful - it’s a place that just seems to attract couples who want a laid-back, meaningful and authentic feel on their wedding day. All of the Kelham Island couples I’ve worked with have wanted natural, documentary style images alongside some creative portraiture which makes use of the quirks and charm of this area of Sheffield.

My two most photographed venues are The Chimney House and The Mowbray - the food is incredible and is usually served in a feasting style at long tables where the vibe feels intimate and relaxed. The teams at these venues are joyful, lovely people who will make sure that every detail of your day represents who you are as people.

Kelham Island is busy enough to have a vibrant feel but never so busy that you feel overwhelmed by crowds of people. There are so many beautiful corners for photographs - think cobbled alleyways, red brick and painted murals.
