Information For York Place Studios

We are documentary style wedding photographers and videographers, focussed on capturing natural, unposed moments and celebrating the fun, crazy, hilarious and unforgettable scenes of a wedding day.

At York Place we believe that clichés were made to be broken.

To us weddings are not just about tradition and romance, they're also about friendship and family, belly laughs and crazy dance moves. They're about big moments, tiny moments and the random, unpredictable, spontaneous and perfectly imperfect in-between moments. They're about living and loving every single second of your day, then reliving those feelings with every page of your album.

We don't want our couples to remember when they pretended to do something, we want you to remember the real thing, every time. No false smiles or uncomfortable poses, just the genuine joy of spending a day of pure happiness and celebration with the people you care about most in the world.

Our style is not influenced by any pre-conceived idea of what wedding photography looks like, in fact our artistic ideas are more aligned with street photography. But ultimately our photography is not about following the rules of any genre, it's simply about celebrating people; about documenting life, relationships, joy and connection. And nowhere are those qualities more abundant and beautiful to behold than on a wedding day.

Top Wedding Tips

There are no rules. Forget about what's gone before, don't worry about trends, or 'must-haves'. It's your day, just be you.

Your wedding is not a photo-shoot. Don't try to impress or worry about what 'looks good on camera' - if you're enjoying and expressing yourself then every photo can't help but be perfect.

Invest in making memories. Focus on the things that will make you happy not just on the day but in 20, 30, 50 years time when you think back on your wedding day. Trends change but memories are forever

I'm Dominique, one of the photographers at York Place along with my brother Liam. We also work alongside our two fantastic videographers - my younger brother Alex and my husband Matt. I've been obsessed with photography since I was 14, shot my first wedding (on film!) at 16, started York Place aged 21 and in the 17 or so years since, this hobby that I'm fortunate enough to call a job has taken me places I could never imagine, from representing camera brands to shooting street in Tokyo to speaking in front of hundreds of photographers in far-flung destinations around the world. I'm happiest though when I have a camera in my hand and people around me just being themselves and having fun, and a wedding day is the perfect place to capture that! For me a wedding is not only about traditions and romance, it's also about having the rare opportunity to bring together everyone you know and love in the same place at the same time. Our photographs and films are not about capturing the story of a wedding day, they're about capturing the story of you, your relationship and this time in your lives; trying to capture the little, off-guard tiny moments that reveal the true personality of your family, friends and relationships. Ultimately we want to capture not just the look but the feel of your day, so we can take you back there with every single frame.
