LAUREN & SIMON
Cambridge is a city like no other, where history, romance and timeless architecture meet. From the slow pace of the River Cam to the grandeur of King’s College Chapel, every corner offers a story waiting to be captured.
As someone born and raised here, I know these streets, cloisters and meadows by heart. I’ve photographed weddings at many of the city’s most iconic settings, including King’s College, St John’s, Trinity Hall, Christ’s and Emmanuel, as well as nearby venues such as Longstowe Hall and South Farm.
Whether your celebration unfolds within one of Cambridge’s historic colleges or among the tranquil meadows beyond the city, my familiarity with the light, textures and atmosphere of this place allows me to capture its spirit , and yours,with authenticity and grace.
If you studied here, call Cambridge home, or simply fell in love with its beauty, I’d be honoured to photograph your story in the city that inspires me daily.
Calm presence, clear communication and quiet leadership help your day unfold naturally — so you can relax and fully enjoy it.
Calm experience and quiet leadership
From timings and light choices to gentle direction and problem-solving, my role is to help your day feel easy and beautifully unforced.
Editorial quality without turning the day into a photoshoot
Emotion, atmosphere and genuine connection sit at the heart of every wedding story I photograph.
Photographs that feel like the day felt
For couples searching for a luxury wedding photographer in Cambridge or an editorial wedding photographer in Cambridge, this balance of emotional authenticity and refined presentation is often what resonates most.
Cambridge offers an extraordinary variety of wedding venues, from the historic colleges and riverside settings to refined country houses and estates just beyond the city. Each brings its own rhythm, light and atmosphere, and photographing them well requires both creative sensitivity and local experience.
The colleges of Cambridge provide some of the most iconic wedding venues in the UK, offering grand chapels, secluded courts, cloisters and candlelit halls. The spectacle of King's College chapel, the bridge of sighs or the Great Court at Trinity College. They also come with practical considerations: access permissions, ceremony restrictions, porter routes and timing windows that benefit from experience and familiarity.
I’ve photographed weddings at over half of Cambridge’s colleges, including King’s College, Trinity Hall, St John’s College, Pembroke College, Jesus College, Clare College and Magdalene College, allowing couples to relax knowing their photography is handled smoothly and respectfully.
Surrounding Cambridgeshire offers elegant countryside venues with generous space, soft natural light and a relaxed pace — ideal for couples who love refined aesthetics without formality. These locations lend themselves beautifully to editorial storytelling and effortless portraits.
From intimate city celebrations and stylish restaurants to contemporary spaces along the river, Cambridge also offers modern wedding settings perfect for smaller, design-led celebrations that prioritise atmosphere and connection.
