Jewish Wedding Photography
Mark Seymour
During my professional career I have been honoured to be selected as many couple’s Jewish wedding photographer. I have a good reputation with the Jewish community in London and the UK for my documentary wedding photography; capturing traditional orthodox ceremonies and more modern Jewish weddings. You can trust my experience to understand and photograph the different aspects of the Jewish wedding; including the Tisch, Bedekken, and Katubah – naturally and unobtrusively, so that every important and special moment of your day is documented sensitively.
Many Jewish couples marry in some of London’s exclusive hotels; the art nouveau interiors of The Rosewood, the luxurious Savoy Hotel and Dorchester in the heart of the West End, and the Mandarin Oriental with its beautiful views over Hyde Park. I have also photographed many beautiful Jewish weddings at Finchley’s Kinloss Synagogue, and stunning outdoor Chuppah’s at the Watford Grove Hotel.
I have been the Jewish wedding photographer at some incredible weddings coordinated by the fabulous Philip Small and his team as well as some fantastic Bar Mitzvahs; look out for photographs and links in my wedding blogs. Jewish weddings are about families and friends, so before the wedding I will talk with you about your group list so we can ensure these are planned as part of your wedding day. One of my favourite parts of photographing Jewish weddings is the dancing. I use off camera Manfrotto led lighting to ensure I get the very best images on the dance floor, recording all that wonderful ambient light and atmosphere. I have seen some awesome bands perform including Muzika, and The Gilev Showband, and the incredibly soulful singer Fil Straughan.
I would love to be your Jewish wedding photographer, we can set up a meeting to talk about your day and look at some of my couple’s wedding albums. I have both digital photography and wedding album packages for my Jewish weddings, if you would like a price list and more information please contact me here.
“Photography is not just my job, it’s my passion; I am so humbled every time a couple choose me as their wedding photographer, and each and every wedding day is as unique and special as the couple.”
Making Memories
I’ve been a professional photographer for twenty years and in that time not only have I established a very successful wedding photography business, I’ve carved out my own distinctive style of photographing and editing. My photographic style is embedded in the genre of documentary photojournalism, also described as reportage, candid and photoessay. My documentary images are focused on the observation of people, events and emotions which is why I refer to my work as ‘observational documentary wedding photography’.
