Hitchin wedding photographer named wedding photographer of the year

Rafe Abrook showing off his new award

Rafe Abrook Photography is a Hitchin based wedding photographer who has recently won The Wedding Business Awards National Wedding Photographer of the Year.

The process began by asking for 2019 clients to agree to submit testimonials to the judges' panel. Each category entrant had to have a minimum number of client responses to get through to the second round. Here regional categories were created, including the East of England where Rafe Abrook Photography was included. 

The judges’ panel then scored each supplier on all aspects of their business by looking at the testimonials submitted, quality of their website and social media channels amongst others. As the winner of its region, Rafe Abrook Photography progressed through to the national finals and emerged as the overall victor. Owner Rafe Abrook says, "As it’s my first National Wedding Award, it all came as a delightful surprise. My wonderful clients last year were the key to making this happen as they took the time to write some kind words for me!"

The 2026 UK Wedding Blacklist: The 10 Songs Couples Don’t Want on the Dancefloor

Modern British couples are officially rewriting the rules of wedding entertainment, according to new social listening research released today by UK live music and entertainment agency Jonny Ross Music. An analysis of social media discussions across TikTok and Reddit (r/UKweddings) reveals that traditional party staples are being systematically blacklisted in favour of curated, sophisticated setlists. The results point to a clear change in what younger couples want from their wedding receptions. Group dances, heavily played 2010s pop songs and football-style chants are among the tracks and trends couples are increasingly asking DJs and live bands to leave off their playlists.
