Devonshire Terrace Wedding: Helen & Jason

Helen & Jason: A Day of Love in the capital

A Devonshire Terrace wedding is always a great event and this one was a particularly fun one for me, as I got to indulge my love of football at this wedding. Jason, the groom, is an ardent Leicester City fan and season ticket holder, and I enjoyed being able to capture him and his party with a Leicester City flag as part of the proceedings. Leicester won the Premier League title in 2017, so I can only imagine that Jason had a pretty perfect year, seeing those events unfold ahead of his marriage to the beautiful Helen.

Devonshire Terrace at a glance

Devonshire Terrace is a Drake & Morgan bar and events venue in Devonshire Square, in the City of London. The buildings date from the early 1800s, when they were built to store goods shipped from Bengal, including silk, ivory and mother-of-pearl. A glass roof now covers the western courtyard. The venue is licensed for weddings and civil ceremonies, so you can marry and celebrate in one place. It holds up to 150 for a ceremony, 150 seated and 400 standing. The in-house team handles food, drink and decor.

Having shot Jason’s sister’s wedding previously, it was a pleasure to recognise some faces from that day too, and of course, flattering to be asked back to for another family event.

Devonshire Terrace Wedding Photography

I really enjoyed shooting a Devonshire Terrace wedding in the City district of London – the courtyard venue was striking and elegant with a nice modernist feel to it. Something about shooting a wedding at the heart of London feels rather exciting and grand, and the day was only improved by the lovely autumn weather and convivial atmosphere. The settings and arrangements across the day continued the theme of elegance, and in truth, makes weddings like this easy to shoot!

Kind words

“Matt is incredible on the day. He helps to keep the flow of the day going without ever being pushy. Happy to oblige last minute decisions whilst giving invaluable input on locations for photos. As the day progresses he slips into the background and captures the event perfectly. The quality of his work has been excellent and his documentary style of photography has produced an incredibly natural catalogue of photos of our day.”

Photographing a Devonshire Terrace wedding

Devonshire Terrace has a striking, elegant courtyard with a modern feel, and it’s an easy place to photograph a wedding. Helen and Jason married there in September 2016, on a lovely autumn day. The settings around the venue kept the same smart look all day, so the pictures came together naturally. Jason is a Leicester City season ticket holder, so we made sure he and his party got pictures with a Leicester flag.
