The hotel opened in 1873 as the Midland Grand, and nearly got knocked down before it came back to life in 2011.

George Gilbert Scott designed it, and it's Grade I listed. It closed as a hotel in 1935 and spent decades as railway offices. It's now called St. Pancras London, part of the Autograph Collection, but most people still know it as the St Pancras Renaissance.

A building that does half the work

I've photographed couples at St Pancras for years. Red brick, pointed arches and old lanterns give you pictures that could only be London.

The Grand Staircase is worth building real time into the day for. It looks different depending on the hour and the light, so it's not somewhere to rush through on the way to dinner.

For the ceremony and the reception I stay out of the way. I confirm access to the staircase and any restricted areas with the hotel beforehand, so nothing is being worked out on the day.

A small wedding with just their close family, with a bigger party in Italy a couple of weeks later. We took photographs round St Pancras before they got married. The rain had just stopped, which gave us that sky.

Portraits

Where to take portraits at St Pancras

You don't need to go far. Most of the best pictures are within a few minutes of the ceremony room.

  • The Grand StaircaseBest when it's quiet, so I plan the timing with the hotel.
  • The archesRed brick and lanterns. Good in any weather, because you're under cover.
  • The stationThe big glass roof and the Meeting Place statue on the upper concourse.
  • The frontThe clock tower and spires on Euston Road, best with some sky behind them.
