About
Shot on film.
Felt for years.
Elena Marlowe photographs weddings on 35mm, medium format and Super8 — honest, nostalgic, timeless. Nothing staged into stiffness; just the day as it felt, grain and all.
Based in a little stone cottage near Kingham in the Cotswolds — shooting across the UK and Europe, all year round.
Also: @elenamarlowe.families for family stories · @elenamarlowe.afterdark for the quiet, in-between frames.
Kind words
From the couples.
We wanted the day to feel like a memory, not a photoshoot. Elena disappeared into it — and the little Super8 film she sent us made my mum cry. It looks exactly like the day felt: golden, loud, a bit teary.
Neither of us likes being photographed. Elena never once asked us to pose — she just followed the light around the orchard. The frames are honest in a way phone photos never are.
Our vows under the old cedar lasted four minutes. Elena caught all of it on film — including James crying before I had even walked in. We will show our kids these one day.
