Award‑winning Harrogate wedding photographer capturing authentic, documentary-led wedding and engagement images. Charlotte focuses on relaxed storytelling, pre-wedding shoots and cinematic highlights.
Charlotte Hedgecock Photography is a Harrogate-based specialist in wedding and engagement photography, known for a modern, documentary-led approach that prioritises real emotion over stiff poses. Charlotte believes your wedding day is made up of the quiet, candid moments and the big, joyful highs — the ones you’ll want to relive for years. Her work blends reportage storytelling with creative portraiture to deliver galleries that feel both timeless and alive. Why choose Charlotte? Her experience photographing a wide range of Yorkshire weddings — from intimate registry ceremonies to grand country-house celebrations — means she knows how to use venues, light and landscape to their best advantage. Based just outside Harrogate with a studio near the Harrogate Registry Office, Charlotte is ideally placed to serve couples across Harrogate and the wider Yorkshire region. She builds strong relationships with local venues and brings a calm, organised presence to the day so couples can enjoy the moments without worry. What makes her approach special is an emphasis on atmosphere and authenticity. Charlotte works unobtrusively to capture candid interactions, laughter and tears, while also creating elegant portraits that feel natural and unforced. She often recommends pre-wedding (engagement) shoots to help couples feel relaxed in front of the camera and to plan the photography flow for the big day. When appropriate, she uses drone photography to show venue settings from a cinematic perspective and collaborates with videographers to produce highlight films that include sound and motion — a perfect complement to her still imagery. How Charlotte works with clients is simple and personal. From an early meeting she focuses on understanding what matters most to each couple, tailoring the coverage to their day and building trust so everyone feels at ease. On the wedding day she leads with sensitivity, balancing documentary coverage with gentle direction for portraits and family group shots. After the wedding she delivers carefully edited images in a shareable online gallery and offers luxury album design for couples who want a tactile keepsake. Charlotte’s passion for wedding photography is clear in every frame: a love of storytelling, attention to detail and a commitment to creating professional, heartfelt wedding memories for couples across Harrogate and Yorkshire.
