Desiree A. North Photography Full Description
Hey, my name is Desiree and I'm a wedding photographer specialising in Natural, Magical and Elegant wedding photos filled with LIGHT, life, joy and LOVE . Based in London and covering weddings across the UK & Europe. Effortlessly effective, and with a down-to-earth natural approach I create heirloom pieces that radiate with heart-felt moments you will treasure owning, holding and reminiscing to in years to come. Your Story Teller Gallery will be filled with all the little details you've so carefully chosen, a plethora of candid joyful moments, easy group shots, breathtaking timeless and natural couple's portraits, and stunningly photographed pivotal moments within your special day, all captured in a non-intrusive way and gently directed where you needed it the most. It's important to me that I create a bond with all the couples I choose to work with, and so I love getting to know you. I would love to learn more about your wedding and uncover how I can be the best of service to you, so if you’d like to learn more, please do get in touch on [email protected] & If you'd like to elevate your photos to the next level I also offer the option to go for a hybrid package of Film Photography alongside Digital. ​What is Film Photography? Film Photography is where you expose a roll of chemically sensitive film to light, the old school way. Film Photography has been trending in recent years and it's making a big comeback for its natural ability to render skin tones beautifully. If like me you are inspired by weddings like the likes of Nick Jonas & Priyanka Chopra, Joe Jonas & Sophie Turner, John Legend & Chrissy Teigen, and Gwyneth Paltrow & Brad Falchuk, who all opted for a hybrid of film and digital, then you are in for a treat.

We were very impressed
In summary, Desiree provided top quality service for our wedding ceremony. In the run up to our wedding, she was very transparent in providing the options for the style of shoot as well as different itineraries depending on the duration. As I am not someone who is a natural in front of the camera, she gave me a lot of pointers during the shoot on where to look or how to pose so I could feel the most confident. We were very impressed with the results of the shoot and felt that she accurately captured all the happiest moments of our special day. Thank you Desiree!

choosing Desiree was one of our best.
With so many important decisions to make for that one special day, choosing Desiree was one of our best. Desiree was so kind and patient with us throughout our wedding journey, and even helped guide us through the twists and turns of events, that I almost forgot that I hired a photographer and not a wedding planner. We are so grateful for the time she spent to get to know the feel and style we wanted, as well as her generousity of time invested working on our photos and supporting our follow on requests. Everyone always says to treasure every minute as your special day will go by in a flash, and it is true, therefore i am forever thankful to Desiree for capturing every special moment.

The photos...are absolutely beautiful
We hired Desiree for our wedding in September 2021 and she was amazing!! I'm incredibly awkward in photos, and she made us feel so at ease! The photos have just come back and they are absolutely beautiful - edited in a way that is so completely us. Thank you so much, Desiree.

We are so happy with our photos
A huge thank you to Desiree for our beautiful wedding photos ! Desiree was amazing - we moved the date, changed the brief, had to deal with rain and traffic 😅 but Desiree stayed super professional and nice and guided us all the way !! We are so happy with our photos 👏🏻 Thank you again.

Desiree is one of the most talented professionals
Desiree is one of the most talented professionals I have ever met. Her work is breathtaking and she really goes above and beyond to get you your perfect shot, whilst also presenting you with new ideas and always the most heart warming candids. She has gone above and beyond as not only a photographer, but as a professional and confidant. When the pandamic hit Desiree guided me on the next steps I should take, whilst as a bride I was bewildered. She was so flexible with all the changes in rules and regulations which then reflected in the changes to our wedding. She captured the most important day of my life so beautifully and gave me the chance to relive it whenever I look at the pictures she has taken. I cannot thank her enough. She is truly talented.

FAQs

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Natural, Magical, Elegant, Fine Art, Timeless

What about your business are you most proud of?

The bond I create with my couples, I truly care about them, and value building a trusting friendship. I've also spent a lot of time and dedication to write up a SUPER GUIDE, to help my couples plan their wedding with photography in mind. Why? Because I want their day to run as smoothly and stress-free as possible, while also produce stunning images in a gently directed but over all non-intrusive way.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Check out the aptly named book 'Don't Sweat the Small Stuff...and it's all small stuff". It's a great mantra to live by and an overall helpful way to put things into perspective when things go wrong.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

A photo collage framed print of the couple & their friends/ family on each of their guests' respective tables. This was such a nice heartwarming personal touch, which I am sure that their guests truly appreciated.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

The journey starts with a zero obligations consultation where we uncover all their wants and needs. Following this call I draft up a tentative wedding schedule along with a bespoke proposal. Booking is secured against a deposit and the signing of the contract. Thereafter leading to the wedding day I am there to assist with any planning, we share pintrest boards where required, and I also send them my SUPER GUIDE to help them set themselves for photo success. Whereever possible I also try to schedule venue visits or might turn up 1hour early to do a scout of the venue. 1 month before the wedding we schedule another call to reconfirm the schedule, we gather a group shot list, and tie up all the final details. On the wedding day, they can just sit back and relax and enjoy the best day of their lives. Following the big day, I aim to edit their photos as quickly as possible and within 30days I deliver a stunning story teller gallery. If we have ordered any albums this is when we would have an other meeting to design their uniquely bespoke album. The journey does not end there, becuase exclusively for my couples I also offer materinity, newborn or baby shoots, really cementing a lifelong friendship with my couples in years to come.

What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?

Question to the couple: What is your non-negotiable shot? or What are you most looking forward to on the day? Then that is the no1. photo I would recommend they have taken. From experience, the most valued photo is either the First Look or the First Kiss.

What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?

A Bridal Boudoir Session - honestly, these are loads of fun, done elegantly and tastefully, can be a nice treat for the groom on the honeymoon.

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Clear/ Transparent Umbrellas

Describe how you got into photography.

My parents were wedding photographers. I remember them taking me on shoots, and simply remember loving looking for compositional options, and the joy of wedding days is simply endearing.
