London Engagement Shoots
London is a city built for stories — a gritty mix of iconic landmarks, brutalist edges, and those moody grey skies that make everything feel a little more electric. The clash of old-world charm and sharp modern lines creates the perfect backdrop for something real.
Whether you’re locals or just passing through for an engagement, anniversary, or a wild and lovely chapter in your story, my London engagement shoots are about more than pretty pictures — they’re about capturing who you are, against a city that refuses to play it safe.
IT FEELS LIKE WE’RE HANGING OUT
TAKING PHOTOS.
I like my shoots to feel like a fun adventure. I know all the hidden corners, the iconic backdrops, the places that hit different on camera. I’ll help you map out a shoot that feels real, not rehearsed — from picking killer locations and when to catch this city at the most perfect light.
As a London wedding photographer, I spend my days chasing stories through this city’s streets — from the heavyweights like Big Ben and Tower Bridge to tucked-away gems most people miss. Whether it’s a pre-wedding shoot, an engagement session, or just a meaningful way to mark your trip, I got you covered.
LIFE IS A COLLECTION
OF MOMENTS.
Celebrating anniversaries & milestones, buying your first home, going on holidays, getting engaged… These are all key pieces that define your journey together through life. I’m all about preserving these into a visual treasure.
Photos that reflect you two,
JUST AS YOU ARE.
“Alline’s photos captured how we really see ourselves. She finds all of the small in-between moments and a way to just naturally make you feel comfortable behind the camera, even when it’s all new to you.” – Daisy + Clare.

How I pose my couples.
WHERE ENERGY MEETS JOY
I’m here to capture you exactly as you are — the inside jokes, the quiet glances, the way you fall into each other when the world fades out. No forced poses, no fake smiles — just the real, messy, electric connection that’s yours alone. Every shot is a piece of your story, told in a way no one else could
Spontaneity and fun are at the heart of every shoot. This energy creates a relaxed space for you both to enjoy the experience of being on camera, making it feel less like a photoshoot and more like we’re just hanging out. Instead of forcing awkward poses, I guide you through questions and playful prompts to bring out the most natural, authentic and unguarded moments.
What locations to choose.
Picking locations that are meaningful
My advice is to choose locations that hold meaning for you both. Whether it’s the place where you first met, where something unforgettable happened, or even your own home and neighborhood—these personal spots will make your photos feel even more special. It could even be your local pub, where you share casual moments together.
Top tip: If you’re camera shy, it’s best to steer clear of busy tourist spots. While I’m goood at helping people feel at ease in front of the camera, choosing a more intimate location will make the experience feel more personal and comfortable for you both.

What to wear.
WEAR SOMETHING THAT MAKES YOU FEEL GREAT!
I believe in letting my couples express themselves through their wardrobe, as my goal is to capture you—authentically and comfortably—during the shoot.
Top tip: Comfortable shoes are a must! During my London engagement shoots, we often walk from one location to another for an hour or more, so your feet will definitely thank you for opting for something comfy and practical.
Best time to shoot.
MAKING THE MOST OF THE DAYLIGHT
London is one of the most popular destinations in the world, and the streets can get quite crowded—especially on sunny days! The best time to kick off a London engagement shoot is in the late afternoon, early evening as these times offer the most beautiful light of the day, during sunset to add a perfect atmosphere for your photos.
Top tip: If you’re planning to shoot in popular tourist spots, opt for a weekday instead of the weekend to avoid larger crowds and ensure fewer people in the background of your shots.
What if it rains?
Embracing london weather
You can never fully trust the British weather! When it rains during my sessions, it usually clears up after just a few minutes. I also happen to think that the rain adds quite a beautiful cinematic effect to images, but you have to be up for it!
Before starting any engagement shoot in London, I always encourage couples to embrace the weather and go with the flow. A little wind and rain can actually add a beautiful, dramatic touch to your photos! However, if there’s a heavy storm, I’m happy to reschedule and shift our shoot to another day, depending on availability.
We are a little shy, what can you do?
ADVICE FOR THE CAMERA ASHY
I’ve got tricks up my sleeve to help you shake off the nerves and just be yourselves. Most importantly, my whole approach is about capturing the raw energy between you — the way you laugh, the way you move, the way you just are together. Whether you’re loud and wild or quiet and steady, it’s about telling your story without watering it down.
Most of the time, it won’t even feel like a shoot — more like hanging out, chasing good light, and catching the real moments as they unfold. No scripts, no posing, no pressure — just the real you, on your terms.
