Documentary Wedding Photography meets Natural Portraiture

Yes, you can have both!

Documentary wedding photography

True documentary wedding photography is capturing candid moments that create a narrative within photographs. All without the photographer’s direction. I feel it is to capture the real, honest, raw character and emotion of everyone at your wedding.

I am for the couples who don’t like posing

I do not believe a wedding should feel like a photoshoot. A wedding is a day of unity and celebration with the people who care about you most. Who wants to spend it posing for hours when you could be partying? Not me! My job is to capture the real you, without it feeling contrived and taking you away from the fun. When it comes time for couple portraits, a chill 15 minutes is all I need to capture your natural authentic self’s.

Check out some of my featured weddings

When you book a wedding photographer, you want to see what a real wedding looks like. Not just a styled photoshoot. Every part of a wedding day is filled with photographic opportunities. And being a specialist documentary wedding photographer in Kent, I like to be there to capture it all. From the in-between moments when mum helps the bride into her dress, to the kids running around in the background during the ceremony. It’s all important to me! View some of my featured weddings from the start to the finish.

Hey, I’m Scott!

A Wedding Photographer in Kent

I am a specialist documentary wedding photographer in Kent focused on capturing real couples who want their wedding day photographed in an authentic style.

Over the 9+ years of being a full-time wedding photographer and the 200+ weddings I have photographed in Kent, I have witnessed some pretty crazy moments. And I’m here for all the shenanigans!

My Approach

A wedding is not a photoshoot

There are so many ways a photographer might capture a wedding. But I truly believe the documentary approach, with a hint of natural portraiture, is the best way to remember a wedding day. I love to capture weddings so that my couples and their guests can remind themselves just how it felt, lots of laughter, love, tears, emotion and dancing. I document all the best bits and in-between moments, which are often my couple’s favourite memories from the day.

“Scott Kendall... Where to start!

I can say with absolute confidence that this guy is one of the most immediately likeable, knowledgeable, and capable creatives I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with.

Above and beyond, Scott was not only able to capture perfect memories and candid shots of our special day but also lent a hand in countless ways throughout the proceedings. When someone (groom) forgot the buttonholes and confetti, Scott was on hand with spare pins and knew how to sort us out. When the bride was having difficulty pinning up the train of her dress for the evening, Scott was even there to step in when the bridesmaids couldn’t.

I hope our marriage lasts a lifetime, but I would almost get married again just to use Scott to photograph our wedding again!”

Like what you see.
