Suffolk Wedding Photographer
The amazing wedding of Harriet and Thomas in Debenham, Suffolk.
City Centre Weddings needn’t be busy or bustling, but sometimes they are, and that’s fine too of course.
We are blessed in the United Kingdom with the places brides and grooms have to choose from when it comes to organising their wedding.
Some, of course, will opt for a quiet countryside retreat, others a small church and others, a city centre wedding.
I’ve been privileged to be the wedding photographer at many weddings both here in the UK and abroad too.
When it comes to planning City Centre weddings, it’s imperative to select a photographer who will be able to work with the often more challenging logistical conditions.
I pride myself on being able to shoot weddings in any condition, and as discreet as possible.
Because I use very small, discreet cameras (in fact, I’m an official Fujifilm Ambassador) I can very easily move across big cities such as London without any need to concern you with parking requirements etc.
I’ve been shooting weddings since 2008 and I would say around a third of those have been busy City Centre Weddings.
My aim, when shooting any wedding is to give my clients a real sense of emotion and story from their wedding day. Shooting weddings in a busy city does not mean that my philosophy changes. In fact, I embrace city centre weddings and look forward to
Below is a selection of City Centre Weddings that I have photographed. If you appreciate my documentary wedding photography style and would like to talk to me about your wedding, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

A lot of you will know that I’m primarily a wedding photographer, and I shoot in what’s known as a wedding photojournalist style. This means I don’t spend time organising people or contriving shots. The images are real, absolutely real, moments…
The First Look ~ Why I love this picture. It’s all about the eye contact…
I’ve been X-T1 Shooting for over a month now and I hadn’t really had much time to do any casual candid photography with it until very recently. I decided to take my new favourite camera with me to the Cheltenham Festival that I was attending with a group of friends. Now, you must understand that…
A little while back I need to do a X100S Studio shoot for the portraiture chapter of my forthcoming book (Fujifilm X100S: From Snapshots to Greatshots) and I got a chance to work at the Damien Lovegrove studios shooting some models . Traditionally I’m more of a social documentary / reportage wedding photographer but I really wanted to…

My first few days with the Fujifilm X-T1 have been great…partly because I’m in Japan but mostly because it’s a really great camera. See what I think….
I’m spending time with the Fuji X-T1…and loving it so far. A very quick few images before a fuller X-T1 initial review tomorrow evening.
I first became addicted to use custom settings on my old Canon 5D Mark II. On the Mode Dial was the option to choose C1, C2 or C3 which were customisable pre-sets if you like. It became extremely useful when working as I could easily switch between settings for low light, fast moving subjects etc. And so…

A very quick post this morning to mention a couple of recent sucesses in the SWPP Awards Monthly competition. I’m an active member of both the SWPP and the ISPWP and I enjoy the benefits of both. One of the best things about both of the societies is the competitions and it gives me a…

I’ve done a few Whatley Manor Weddings now. It’s a wedding venue very close to my home here in Malmesbury and is probably one of the very best hotels in the whole of Europe. As a wedding venue Whatley Manor is perhaps one of the places I look forward to working at the most. The…
I’m adapting my Image-of-the-Week series a little this year. Mostly, because I never managed to do the posting on a regular weekly basis. So, for now, I’m simply going to talk about an image that I like, explain why I like it and discuss, perhaps, a little about the technicalities behind the shot. I hope…
A Wiltshire Wedding here in my home town of Malmesbury, or a gorgeous late July Saturday afternoon? Yes please!

They were married at , St. Peter & St. Pauls Church, Great Somerford by Phil’s dad who the vicar for the day and then at the family home later. I wasn’t aware until during the speeches quite how much preparation and dedication…
So, Christmas has been and gone and we are now well into 2013. Amazing! Just amazing how time flies. I’m reminded by the fact that I haven’t blogged many weddings recently – due primarily to a very busy winter schedule, family vacations, conventions etc. However, I’m now reminiscing about Sarah and Ian’s lovely Wedding at The Great…
Many, many years ago, before I was a wedding photographer I attended a wedding at The Great Tythe Barn, Tetbury and remember thinking then what a great place it was. It’s a remarkable place really, on the outskirts of the Cotswolds market town of Tetbury in Gloucestershire. It’s a lovely Grade II listed Cotswold…
Kids make amazing photography subjects at weddings. Photographing Children at Weddings is perhaps one of the most challenging aspects of being a documentary photographer as they are so unpredictable . However, they do the most amazing things and funny things too. All of which, as the wedding photographer, it’s my duty to capture.
When you look through this slideshow, keep that in mind, watch for those moments, the eye contact and the love and emotion that hopefully has been captured. As a reportage wedding photographer I’m often asked “what about the details!!!”….they are there, in context of course but it’s so very important to me that I capture…
Wedding Photography Video by UK Wedding Photographer Kevin Mullins. All images photographed using a Fuji X-Pro1.
Award Winning Wedding Photos – we all love them right? It’s the end of the year! Wow.

I still have one wedding to shoot, plenty of albums to expedite and still many more…

Candid Photography: Image of the Week #22: So, it’s nearly the end of the year and I’m up to Image of the Week 22. If this was twitter, it would be attributed with the #fail tag. Next year I have some different plans for this section of my website, which I promise will be kept…
Wasing Park Weddings are simply wonderful. It’s quite straightforward. As a wedding venue, Wasing Park is one of the very best in the South of England – perhaps even all of England!

Weddings at Abbey House Gardens have to be one of my favourites throughout the year. Primarily because The Abbey House Gardens is a wonderful wedding venue. Lots of lovely gardens to explore and a magnificent country house and out buildings to plan the wedding around. I’m also fond of Weddings at Abbey House Gardens because it’s literately a 30 second walk from…
Backstory: Two colour images in two days….. something must be going on with the planets. Anyhow, following yesterdays Colour Image of the Week I thought I’d continue the theme by including another image from a very recent wedding that I’m currently editing. I was editing this particular set of images and as soon as I came…
Colour Wedding Photography, I have to admit, is not the first thing that comes to mind when most people think of Documentary Wedding Photography. In fact, a lot of people (incorrectly in my opinion) associate dreary, miserable looking black and white photos with this genre of wedding photography. I certainly hope my images don’t betray the…
Aberystwyth, Constitution Hill; A photograph taken on my iPhone 4S during a recent weekend break with my family.

Constitution Hill is a hill found at the northern end of the Aberystwyth promenade, overlooking Cardigan Bay in Ceredigion, Wales.…
Wedding Photographer Hungerford: It’s November now and I’m slowly catching up with my wedding blogs. It’s been a pretty hectic summer and there is little slow down to be honest as I’m full on into wedding album design season. All good fun of course. So, I’ll whip us back to the end of June and…
Aimee and Benjamin booked me for their Four Seasons Hampshire Wedding Photography last year during a brief visit to Malmesbury.

I began…

Pete and Nikki had approached me…

Fuji X-Pro1 Review by Wiltshire based Wedding Photographer Kevin Mullins. I’ve been using the X-Pro1 for six months and this is a round up of my thoughts.
This is a Canon 1DX Wedding Photography findings overview based on my usage of the new camera over the last few weeks. I have to pre-qualify this little post by mentioning that I had no intention of purchasing a 1DX at all. I was quite confident that my Canon 5D Mark III and my Fuji…
A couple of weeks back I found myself in Brixham, Devon visiting a camera shop. Whilst I was waiting for a valuation to be done, I headed off for a little wander around the charming harbour. I remember Brixham well from my childhood. My parents and I would holiday in nearby Torquay and often visit Brixham…

Jez and Geri commissioned me to photograph their wedding here around eighteen months beforehand. As with many weddings…

Malmesbury Carnival Photos I’m amazingly lucky to live in the wonderfully historic Wiltshire town of Malmesbury. I’ve lived here now for about seven years and it’s a place I’m very pleased to call home. Each year, the town puts on a month of festivities during August culminating in the Malmesbury Carnival. For the last two years, due…
