Jono Symonds Photo & Film is a luxury Lake District wedding photographer & videographer dedicated to telling each couple’s story through timeless, cinematic imagery and film. Jono’s style blends elegant editorial portraiture with relaxed, reportage-style moments, capturing the raw emotion, laughter and intimacy of the day while letting couples simply relax and enjoy it. Guests barely notice him at work, yet nothing is missed, from the quiet nerves of the morning to the last song on the dancefloor. What sets Jono apart is his background in the music industry. Before turning to weddings, he spent years photographing music legends including Ed Sheeran, Kylie Minogue, Little Mix, The Script and Jason Derulo, and he still shoots artists and music events today. That experience shows in his work: an instinct for anticipating the perfect moment, a calm head when plans change, and a cinematic eye that brings the energy of a live show to every first dance and packed dancefloor. Having grown up in and around the Lake District and Cumbria, Jono has a deep love for the region and an intimate knowledge of its landscapes and venues. Whether it’s a luxury country estate, a stately home, a Michelin-starred hotel, a rustic barn or a mountaintop elopement, he knows how to make the most of every setting and every light. Beyond the Lakes, he covers weddings across the UK and at destinations worldwide. Couples can choose photography, film, or a combined photo and film service, with collections also available for elopements and engagement shoots. Every image and scene is individually retouched, and couples receive a beautiful online gallery to share with family and friends, with heirloom albums and artwork available to order. His work has been featured by the BBC, ITV, Hello Magazine and Love My Dress amongst others, and with a limited number of weddings taken each year, Jono is the ideal choice for couples seeking a luxury Lake District wedding photographer & videographer.
