Alexandria French Photography

Alexandria French is a Chapeltown-based wedding photographer who specialises in capturing the emotional truth of your wedding day with a romantic, editorial eye. Rooted on the border of Yorkshire and Derbyshire, her work draws on a love of fine art and cinematic imagery—think evocative, timeless photographs with a nod to Romanticism and an editorial polish inspired by the pages of fashion magazines. Alexandria’s signature approach is about framing real connection, not forcing poses: the result is images that feel like stills from a film rather than staged portraits. Why choose Alexandria? She treats each wedding as a unique story to be told, taking the time to understand what matters most to you. Alexandria works with a small number of couples each year so she can be present, relaxed and attentive throughout your day. Clients frequently praise how naturally she blends into their celebrations—calm, friendly and genuinely interested—so that family and friends feel comfortable and moments unfold organically. Her process centres on collaboration and ease. It begins with a friendly discovery call to get to know you and your plans, followed by practical preparation so your wedding day runs smoothly. On the day she focuses on documenting emotion and atmosphere with an authentic-documentary approach tempered by editorial composition and lighting. The aim is to create a visual story that reflects how your day felt—intimate, joyous and real. Alexandria’s photography is driven by a deep love of storytelling and a belief that photographs are time capsules we return to again and again. She’s an art lover, a tea-drinker and a down-to-earth Yorkshire soul who delights in quiet moments and big celebrations alike. That sensibility translates into imagery that is both refined and warmly human. Based in Chapeltown and happy to travel across Sheffield, the UK and beyond, Alexandria specialises in wedding and engagement photography. She also offers portrait, family and maternity sessions for clients who want her signature style outside of their wedding day. If you want cinematic, emotive wedding photos captured with sensitivity and editorial flair, a discovery call with Alexandria is a relaxed first step to see if she’s the right fit for your day.
