I'm like a 6 foot 8 Ninja out there. Slithering about the place with stealth and cunning, the likes of which you will have never seen. Occasionally pausing to drop some quick witted humour on an unsuspecting guest. With regular top ups of strong coffee, and an array of joyous souls to photograph, I am in my happy place.
You can reach me any time, any day for a good old chit chat about how we can work together. I even have some of the finest wedding venues in the country recommending me to their clients. On top of this all I now offer a Videography package within my brand, captured in true Rafe Abrook style by my long time partner in crime - Michael of NINE EMBERS MEDIA.

Yeah, so this is me carrying one of two drunk brides across some gravel to protect her feet and get them a beautiful night shot together under a pagoda. It seemed like the decent thing to do at the time. I find that by immersing myself into my weddings and becoming part of it, doors are opened for me and my shots just get better and better.
Full day coverage from Preparation in the morning, to late evening (I always stay late for the after-party!) Online gallery of all hi res images for you to download, and share with friends and family. Print order options included. While I am flexible and will try and adapt to your needs, I believe the packages above offer the best value option for most couples.
My shop is always open and I will try and respond to you as quickly as I can. There is no such thing as a daft question, and it's my job to hold your hand (figuratively) through this process. PLEASE check your junk mail folder for a response shortly after you contact me, as my replies often end up there, especially to hotmail accounts!
I am currently trying to work out the most popular date for everyone and then will get the venue booked and take bookings. These are done at my business HQ in Hitchin, Herts or for an additional fee can be done in your own home if required. I tailor each session exactly to the client's needs and experience, from absolute beginners to fellow professionals.
As Founding Partner of the Hitchin Wedding Collective, it has been one of my goals to set up a network of the very best wedding professionals in the region. The businesses below are all part of this, and come with my personal guarantee of excellence. Based in North Herts, Katy is hugely experienced, massively talented, great fun and a pleasure to work with.

Rafe recently shot our wedding and has since sent us through so many beautiful photos of us, our friends and our family that it took two sittings go get through! We so enjoyed looking through them all and had such a laugh at the memories.
We can't wait to look through them all again and was so lovely for us to see each others day, before the ceremony and everything going on behind the scenes! Rafe and Karl both did so well to capture everyone and everything and we are so so grateful.
Our family and friends have since started looking through the photos and are highly reccomending Rafe where possible

Rafe photographed our wedding in July and the whole album is absolutely stunning. He's really captured all our best moments. We aren't a fan of too many posy shots, so loved that Rafe's style is a little more natural while also getting those standard groyp shots. The photos are in the moment and completely show how everyone was feeling and enjoying the day. Thank you so much Rafe!

We first met Rafe at a wedding fair at a venue randomly in Buntingford and we took a chance as we were drawn to him & his work instantly.
What a photographer. I can honestly say Rafe was the best person for the job….if I could give more stars I would!! We hired both Rafe & his right hand man (second photographer) Carl for the whole day, lovely guys…professional, experienced & kind enough to stayed till the DJ stopped for those late night party snaps.
I was utterly blown away with our gallery. Looking through them brought back every single emotion I felt on our special day and some. We didn’t

I am so glad that someone recommended Rafe to photograph our wedding. I cannot say enough about how professional and talented Rafe is. The quality of work that he provides is excellent. I was so pleased with our session at Rowney Warren Forest and the final photos were like gems to keep.
Our wedding was in April 2021 and there were still many restrictions especially around weddings. Rafe was very responsive and helped me personally a lot to make arrangements especially that I have recently moved to the UK. He has wonderfully set up a shoot that really captured our moments in a very difficult time
