WHY I LOVE BLACK AND WHITE WEDDING PHOTOS AS A YORKSHIRE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

As a Yorkshire wedding photographer specialising in a relaxed, documentary style, I LOVE the timelessness and emotional depth that black and white edits bring to wedding photography. Don’t get me wrong, I love how colour photos show the vibrance of your wedding day, but stripping back that colour to focus on the story of the image gives me all feels. If you follow me on Instagram and Facebook, you’ll already know I LOVE BLACK & WHITE PHOTOS SOOO MUCH.

Ok, let’s go a little deeper…


Black and white wedding photos stand the test of time. There’s so many different editing styles out there that come and go with the trends but this doesn't apply as much to black and white photos. I'd go as far to say that you’ll love a B&W photo now as well as twenty, thirty years down the line.

Story telling… black and white wedding photography has an ability to evoke mood and atmosphere and really tell the story. By removing the distraction of colour, the focus shifts to light and shadow, texture, and composition creating images full of emotion.

It’s versatile… from an editing point of view I love creating B&W images of your special day. From high-contrast images that emphasise drama and intensity to soft, ethereal tones that evoke a sense of nostalgia, there are endless possibilities for creative expression.

To wrap it up, in a world filled with fleeting trends and fleeting moments, black and white wedding photography stands as a timeless reminder of the love & emotion you experience on your wedding day. It’s the perfect story teller…
