Annabel & Jonny's Morden Hall Wedding (even a fox came)!

Having photographed celebrations across the UK, I’m proud to be a recommended wedding photographer for couples planning their wedding day at Morden Hall.

I walk my black Labrador along the banks of the River Wandle at least three times a week, passing the impressive Morden Hall with its spacious lawns and immaculate flower beds. Having photographed numerous celebrations across the estate, it’s easily one of my favourite South London venues. If you’re currently planning your wedding day here, be sure to check out my full Morden Hall Wedding Photography Guide for venue tips, photo spots, and planning advice.

Documentary Wedding Photography at Morden Hall

Today I was back on the estate to document Annabel and Jonny’s full-day celebration. As a local photographer who knows Morden Hall inside out, I love capturing how the light hits the grounds throughout the day—from prep in the dressing rooms to sunset portraits along the riverbank.

Both families helped bring the vision together: Annabel’s aunt created stunning floral arrangements, while a close family friend baked a delicious homemade cake (which began a gentle tilt in the summer heat, but tasted incredible!). From sweet quiet moments—like Annabel heading down to the bottom of the garden with her young nephews—to the older guests tearing up the dance floor late into the evening, the energy was fantastic from start to finish.
