When it comes to planning your wedding, choosing the right photographer is one of the most important decisions you’ll make. Your wedding photographs are more than just images – they’re the lasting record of the emotions, connections, and beautiful details that make your day uniquely yours.

As Plymouth wedding photographers, we at Fox & Co Photography combine a timeless documentary approach with refined, editorial-style portraits. The result? A gallery of images that feels both authentic and elevated, telling the story of your day exactly as it happened.


Why Plymouth is the Perfect Wedding Photography Location

Plymouth offers a stunning mix of coastal charm, maritime history, and vibrant city energy – giving couples a huge variety of backdrops for their celebration. From intimate seaside ceremonies to grand receptions in elegant manor houses, the city has something for every style of wedding.

Some of the most popular Plymouth wedding settings include:

  • Boringdon Hall Hotel & Spa – A romantic Elizabethan manor on the edge of Dartmoor, known for its luxurious interiors and stunning grounds.

  • Royal William Yard – A striking waterfront location with beautiful architecture and views across the harbour.

  • Mount Edgcumbe House & Country Park – Just across the water, offering gorgeous gardens and coastal vistas.

  • The Orangery at Mount Edgcumbe – A romantic glasshouse surrounded by landscaped grounds.

  • Langdon Court Hotel – A historic manor close to Wembury Beach.

  • Plymouth Hoe & Waterfront – Iconic and perfect for golden hour portraits with sweeping sea views.

(While we haven’t photographed at every venue listed, we work closely with couples to create stunning portraits in and around the Plymouth area.)

Our Approach to Wedding Photography in Plymouth

We believe that the best wedding photographs happen when you feel comfortable, relaxed, and able to truly enjoy the day. That’s why we blend into the background for much of the celebration, capturing genuine, unscripted moments – the laughter, the tears, and everything in between.

When it’s time for portraits, we guide you just enough to help you look and feel your best, without over-posing or taking you away from your guests for too long.

Making the Most of the Coastline as a Plymouth Wedding Photographer

One of the biggest advantages of getting married in Plymouth is the easy access to beautiful coastal backdrops. Even if your venue isn’t directly on the seafront, a short drive can take you to dramatic cliffs, sandy beaches, or charming harbours – perfect for couple portraits that make the most of golden hour light.

We work with couples ahead of time to plan where and when to capture these moments, so they feel natural and fit seamlessly into your wedding day.
