I'm a creative Yorkshire Wedding Photographer based in Leeds but I travel the length and breadth of the UK to photograph weddings and often head overseas as a destination wedding photographer too. Weddings provide such amazing, defining moments for the people involved that it's truly a great privilege to be chosen and trusted by my clients to record them for years and generations to come.

My aim is to capture these moments - all the joy, emotions and beauty of the day - in an unobtrusive, creative way. To get a feel for my style, check out my portfolio and if you like what you see hit the contact page to get in touch. I'd love to hear what you have planned.

I'm a wedding photographer based in Leeds but I travel all over the UK and internationally, wherever my work takes me. Weddings provide so many amazing, defining moments in people's lives and I aim to capture these in a creative, organic way. On one level, weddings are governed by tradition. There tends to be a framework to the day that is more or less adhered to and yet I aim to go into each wedding with a clear mind and eyes wide open.
I cap the number of weddings I do each year to allow me to give the absolute best service to each of my couples (Check out my Google reviews for kind words from happy clients!). I'm fortunate to receive a high volume of enquiries and get booked up early so please don't hesitate to contact me so I can check availability for your date and send over a copy of my wedding photography ebrochure.

We had our wedding this summer and John Hope was absolutely fantastic! It has been such a bonus to look back over our beautiful photos since the wedding, but John was great from Day One.
John was in touch with us throughout our wedding planning, checking in with us about potential changes with the pandemic (we luckily managed to keep everything as planned!) and responding to emails quickly and efficiently.
On the day, John was relaxed and professional, helping us to feel at ease and bringing lots of laughter into our group and couple shots which really captured the joy of the day! He knew exactly

Positive: Professionalism, Responsiveness
John's been under complete stress since August. He has been a victim of fraud by an unknown source which is being investigated. Please note that any unauthorised transactions under his company IS NOT him and he is as much a victim as us who are being targeted by this unknown source.

John is such a talented photographer and when we were looking for a wedding photographer we knew we'd be getting photos that were pieces of art in themselves as well as creative and dynamic shots of us and our guests. John was brilliant on the day itself - organised and integral to helping the day run smoothly, friendly but also discreet. We are so happy with our wedding photos and continue to get compliments on how amazing they are. Recommend 100%

What can I say about John! He is just the best wedding photographer you can find! His photos really do speak for themselves (it’s been 8 months and our friends and family are still gushing over them) but apart from that John is friendly, flexible and extremely easy to work with. He kept us very informed through the whole process and on the day it felt like he had everything under control. He has a wealth of experience and is good at anticipating things that his clients will need. Neither my husband nor I are very comfortable in front of a camera but John managed to get some excellent shots of

We can't recommend John enough! The photos are fantastic - he captured the day brilliantly and provides great guidance on how to create the perfect balance between formal and natural shots. He brings a sense of calm with him that means he's a pleasure to have with you on the day!

Nearly 1 year on from our wedding we still get told how amazing our photos are. We feel so incredably lucky that we had John to capture our special day so we can relive it everytime we go through the amazing photos. Thank you John, you are truly talented!

John did the photography for our wedding at Bolton Castle in 2017. He (and his second) did us absolutely proud on the day, capturing all we asked for and more besides. The album we received a few weeks later was absolutely fantastic; solid, stylish and well-curated. We would definitely use him again, and will wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone who asks.

Searching for a wedding photographer was one of the hardest parts of planning our wedding, but I am so glad we took the time and found John. After finding John online we arranged an initial phone call to discuss the plans for the wedding and knew immediately that he was perfect. He is a true professional both in the lead up to the wedding, on the day and in the follow up, making everything so easy and enjoyable. Neither of us are used to being in front of the camera but we barely noticed John on our wedding day as he blended in perfectly and managed to capture natural photos of us and our guests
