A recent wedding at St George's Town Hall in East London was one of those special days that I’ll always remember. Elodie and Adam, who met via Hinge in November 2020, brought their unique love story to life in this beautiful setting. Their connection, with its delightful mix of French and British cultures, added an extra layer of charm to the day. The weather couldn’t have been better, providing the perfect backdrop for their micro wedding.


St George's Town Hall, with its iconic staircase and warm, welcoming rooms, is a venue that documentary wedding photographers like myself truly appreciate. Elodie and Adam’s wedding had a particularly magical feel, not least because of Elodie’s incredible talent as a designer. She created her own wedding dress, which looked like something straight out of a Disney film, as well as their wedding rings. It was clear that every detail of the day was infused with their personal touch.

"Gary is a very talented photographer.. He understood our vision, our needs, our ideas and made it happen with his creative touch. It’s unbelievable how he was able to transcribe our beautiful moment in a photo reportage, capturing all emotions throughout the key highlights of the day."

—Elodie and Adam

After the ceremony, we captured some group shots on the steps before heading around the corner to a nearby church for couple photos. The setting was perfect, offering a stunning backdrop for documenting their love. As a London-based documentary wedding photographer, these moments of genuine connection are what I love to capture.


The reception at The Gun Pub in the Docklands was equally memorable. Rather than taking a cab, Elodie and Adam chose to ride the DLR, which gave us the chance to snap some unique and fun wedding photos. Once at the pub, it was time for the champagne toast, marking the start of a lively and joyous celebration.


If you’re looking for an East London wedding photographer, especially for a venue like St George's Town Hall, I’d love to help you capture your special day in a way that’s as authentic and meaningful as possible.
