The Savoy Wedding Photographer — Luxury Editorial on the Strand

Elegant, unobtrusive coverage across The Savoy’s most iconic spaces—timeless portraits, natural moments, and refined after-dark images that feel unmistakably you.

Why The Savoy

Since 1889, The Savoy has hosted London’s most glittering celebrations—timeless glamour with modern luxury.

Grand rooms include the pillar-free Lancaster Ballroom (with its own stage) and the double-height River Room looking towards Embankment Gardens and the Thames. For ceremonies and dinners, the Abraham Lincoln Room offers classic proportions and elegant finishes.

Service is immaculate, spaces are cinematic, and the hotel’s history gives every moment a sense of occasion that photographs effortlessly

Light, architecture and flow at The Savoy

Each space is a conversation between light and design. In the River Room I work with generous daylight for luminous skin tones; in the Lancaster Ballroom I balance ambient warmth with discreet, refined flash so evening images remain crisp, elegant and true to atmosphere. Portraits are guided efficiently around signature locations—stage and dancefloor framing in the Ballroom; arches and windows in the River Room—so you’re quickly back with your guests. The result is a quiet-editorial narrative: poised where it should be, completely unobtrusive everywhere else
