About Raphael Lionel Photography

I shoot wedding love stories that celebrate beauty, treasured eternal connections, and family. Let me tell YOUR story!

Easy to book. Beforehand, easy in person. On the day, easy to work with. And your images? They should be easy to love!

Many of us do this once in our lifetime. Even if not, we want it done right. It is crucial, therefore, that your images are true to the feel of your theme and the mix of your personalities.

Beautiful, honest images contribute to that exciting wedding day feeling being felt for a long time. Better yet, the day of the vow can be looked over with fondness for years to come!

Raphael Lionel Photography Details

  • My focus is telling the love story of your day, through candid, creative, and reportage imagery. I document your day as it unfolds. I love authentic moments, showing couples what it's like looking in on their love story.
  • I have been shooting for over 10 years and currently run a portrait studio in Birmingham, where my leaning to personal narratives is seen in shooting portraits, and personal branding for small businesses.
  • My studio story telling background, is something I combine well with my creative shots for your big day and couples are always drawn to my backlight, couples portraits and intimate, final light of the day. images.
  • I use one supplier who, in my opinion, is the best wedding album provider on the market - Graphistudio, based in Italy. They provide beautiful, layflat, bespoke albums that really compliment modern story telling. You will get an album, you will love!
  • My collections range from £950 to £2850 and I do believe there is something for everyone. Do not hesitate to contact me to enquire about my collections and availability.
  • As a special I will provide a bottle of Moet for every couple booking my top collection, the Romantic Collection. Look back over your album and celebrate on me!
