I’m Sarah Hurja, an editorial wedding photographer based in London, capturing weddings across the UK, Europe and worldwide. I’ve spent over five years documenting weddings with a deeply human approach, blending editorial, cinematic and documentary photography to create images that are soulful, timeless and effortlessly refined.
What draws me to weddings isn’t tradition or rigid timelines, it’s people. The relationships, the family dynamics, the unspoken moments and emotional layers that unfold throughout the day. Many weddings aren’t perfect, but they are always meaningful, and being invited into that space is a responsibility I never take lightly.
WELCOME
UK + DESTINATION WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER BASED IN LONDON
My photography is rooted in empathy, intuition, and the ability to read a room. I adapt naturally to different personalities and energies, creating an environment where you feel comfortable, confident and completely yourselves. Some moments are gently guided, particularly during portraits, so you look incredible without ever feeling posed. Others are observed quietly as they unfold naturally. I move fluidly between hands-on and hands-off, always guided by what feels right for your day.
Before your wedding, we’ll talk through every detail so you know exactly what to expect. Whether it’s a London city wedding, a UK countryside celebration, or a destination wedding abroad, my focus remains the same: honest storytelling with intention and care.
I work best with couples who value authenticity over perfection, who love editorial and cinematic imagery, and who care deeply about capturing real connection and emotion.
If you want wedding photographs that feel like you, you’re in the right place.
My approach
Originally from Canada, I've called the UK my home for nearly 14 years. Behind the camera, I’m a mum to Ivy and Arlo, and our dog Cooper. I love cooking, baking and sharing meals with my family. I'm a bit of geek and love reading - novels, thrillers, true crime, biography, self help and old photography books (of course!). I choose experiences over things, whether that’s travelling or exploring the UK in our campervan.
I’m endlessly inspired by cinema, art, storytelling and human connection. All of it feeds into how I see and photograph the world.
By building a genuine connection with you, I create space for you to be fully yourselves. That’s where your story naturally unfolds.
One of my favourite quote:
"Midwife. Funeral Director. Wedding photographer. You meet them once on a delicate day. They quickly slip into the inner circle of a family to perform their role during this rite of passage, and then they are gone."- John Dolan

my inspiration / my inspiration / my inspiration
I believe wedding photography should feel personal, not performative.
Stylish, but never stiff.
Emotional, without being staged.
Your wedding is not a production.
It is a gathering of people, stories and relationships, and that is where the beauty lives.
And everywhere in between
