Best of 2025

Kent Wedding Photographer | James Davies Wedding Photography

The past year has been incredible. 2025 has taken me across some of the most beautiful wedding venues in Kent. I’ve returned to favourites like Chapel House Estate, The East Quay Venue, Winters Barns, Port Lympne Safari Park, and Quex Park, while also photographing at a handful of exciting new venues.

As always, my approach has stayed true to my style: natural, candid, relaxed and documentary, capturing real moments as they unfold. This year brought no shortage of them, from emotional pre-ceremony tears and nervous grooms with their best men to bright and colourful confetti walks, couples dancing back up the aisle, and portraits taken in everything from glowing sunsets to dramatic stormy skies.

If you like the way I photograph a wedding and want natural storytelling images of your own day, I’d love to hear from you.

I’m now booking weddings for 2026 and 2027 across Kent.
