Best Pre Wedding locations London

 As I do quite a few pre wedding shoots in London I often get asked about the perfect locations.

Well, to start with I’m going to talk a little about the timing. Last time I googled London has a population of just over 8 MILLION people. That’s a lot. Not to mention the tourists which flood the streets in the summer and autumn… So timing plays a part on pre wedding shoots. With sunrise and sunset being the best times – or the quietest times with the best light.

I tend to schedule London pre wedding shoots for week days, because as you might imagine the weekends are chaotic.

With that in mind here are my top 10 locations for London pre wedding shoots.

St Paul’s Cathedral

It’s pretty rare that I come to London and don’t stop my St Pauls Cathedral. It’s an iconic building in London (with an amazing history.) Whilst security is pretty tight there are some top spots on each side of the building. I love the columns, the flagstones and the gardens and it’s a great spot for sunset.





Paternoster Sq

This is probably my favourite spot – a modern sculpture that can get some great light if you time it right. It is a bit of a 1 spot wonder, and there are only so many photos you can take here – but it’s a it different and looks great.






Embankment+Big Ben

As maintenance work is being carried out on Big Ben and the houses of parliament it’s not a great choice as a backdrop. With scaffolding it’s a bit of an eyesore at the moment. That said I don’t think it looks ‘that’ bad but most people don’t bother these days which is understandable

Southend Barns Wedding Photography - Albert Palmer

One of the good things to come from a quiet time of year is that I finally have time to catch up on my blogging! Today we’re heading back to Jacky & David’s wedding. They got married at St Mary’s Church before heading on to Southend Barns wedding venue. They lucked out with a beautiful day in August which ended with the prettiest of sunsets. It was my first time at Southend Barns although Jacky and Dave found me through a recommendation from this wedding at Upwaltham Barns. Not only did they have a fab Cadillac wedding car their little dog attended the wedding ceremony. Looking at these wedding photos now quickly brings back all the memories of the day. The guys smoking cigars, playing law games, eating amazing food (and cake!) Whilst ‘at work’ I’m always trying to find unique wedding photos and I struck gold! One of my favourite images is of the couple asleep together on an outdoor sofa. It had been a long day and after the wedding breakfast these two crashed out in each others ar...

Pembroke Lodge Wedding — Albert Palmer

 I return to Pembroke Lodge every year for a London wedding. Since I haven’t blogged very many since this Pembroke Lodge winter wedding I thought I’d share a sunnier blinder! A few of my favourite photos from Krystal and Luke’s wedding. I have to say a big shout out to bridesmaid Pinar for recommending me from her beautiful wedding at Falconhurst Estate . I started at Krystal’s sisters (beautiful) home with everyone getting ready. We then headed off to Pembroke Lodge for the ceremony in The Belvedere. The beauty of this room is the amount of light that floods in as well as the proximity to the terrace (for drinks and views!) I hadn’t met either Krystal or Luke before, but boy was I in for a treat! Literally my dream couple. Starting with a shout out to Luke’s suit! Pretty similar to my own wedding suit – that blue looked so good! He was relaxed all day, through the ceremony, couple photos, possibly even the speeches! All day he was beaming. Since the sun shone so brightly we took ...
