Chelsea-based documentary wedding photographer Bartosz Branka specialises in authentic, unscripted wedding photography. He captures real moments with relaxed bridal and engagement sessions to complement your wedding day.
Hi — I’m Bartosz Branka, a Chelsea‑based documentary wedding photographer who loves telling unique love stories through honest, unscripted images. My primary focus is wedding photography: I travel across London and beyond to capture the real emotions, fleeting moments and quiet connections that make each day utterly personal and unforgettable. Why choose me as your wedding photographer in Chelsea? I approach every wedding as a storyteller. Rather than rely on stiff posing or fleeting trends, I look for the moments that matter — the laugh, the tear, the glance between two people — and compose images that feel natural and timeless. My goal is simple: to give you a wedding album that reads like the day itself, so you can relive the atmosphere and emotion whenever you open it. What makes my approach special is a calm, unobtrusive presence combined with an editorial eye. I know when to step forward and direct, and when to blend into the background so your day unfolds naturally. Working in a documentary style means your photos stay genuine and relevant for decades, not just for a season. How I work with couples: I treat every booking as a collaboration. From our first call to the delivery of your photographs, I’ll be clear about what to expect and attentive to your priorities. We can meet in person or online, plan small moments like bridal portraits or engagement sessions if you wish, and I’ll advise on locations, timings and light to make the most of your day. On the wedding day I give you my full attention — capturing the story while helping you feel relaxed and confident. Although weddings are my core speciality, I also offer complementary bridal and engagement sessions to help you prepare and create a fuller visual story. These quieter sessions allow for experimentation and produce beautiful, focused portraits that sit naturally alongside your documentary images. I believe hiring a wedding photographer is about trust and partnership. If you’re planning a Chelsea or London wedding and want authentic, moving, professional wedding photos, let’s talk. I’d be honoured to document your day and preserve the story you’ll cherish for a lifetime.
