Andrew Franklin Photography

Andrew Franklin is a Coulsdon-based wedding specialist whose work is rooted in storytelling, natural light and a calm, personal approach. From the first enquiry to the final gallery, Andrew aims to capture your day as it unfolds — those small, unscripted moments that tell the real story of your wedding. He describes his style as documentary storytelling with natural portraits, balancing candid reportage with a few relaxed couple images so you always have a beautiful record of the day. Why choose Andrew? He brings years of full-time wedding experience, industry recognition as an LMPA Master Photographer and a collection of awards that reflect his commitment to craft. Andrew’s background in print and design and a lifelong love of photography (he still treasures his grandfather’s film SLR) inform his eye for composition, light and emotion. He seeks out natural light wherever possible and applies a considered, consistent finish to every image. What makes his approach special is the Signature Edit — a hand-crafted, cinematic look with slightly warmer tones, matted blacks, understated colour and a hint of classic film grain. The edit is subtle but intentional, designed to give your photos a timeless quality rather than a passing trend. All images posted to social channels and delivered from events are refined in this Signature Edit so your wedding collection feels cohesive and authentic. How Andrew works with couples is straightforward and relaxed. He begins with a friendly consultation to understand your plans and priorities, then blends into the day to document it sensitively. He keeps formal group shots efficient (usually 6–10) so you can return to your guests quickly, and he offers pre-wedding sessions to gently familiarise you with being photographed. After the wedding you’ll receive a private online gallery and options for beautiful albums — from lay-flat books to Bellissimo storybooks — and bespoke wall art to display your images. While weddings are Andrew’s core focus, he also offers natural photo sessions for families, portraits, pets and events in and around Coulsdon and across the UK. If you want a relaxed, storytelling wedding photographer who values authenticity, natural light and a timeless edit, Andrew Franklin is ready to start your story.
