About

Last update: July 2026

Photographing around 50-70 weddings per year and in 2014 venturing into "hybrid" wedding coverage of both photography and video. I like to work discreetly from a distance and use natural light as much as possible.

My style of photography is timeless with use of natural colours and a wide dynamic range.

The GO-TO photographer!

I honestly can’t recommend Kane Young highly enough. From the moment we booked him to photographing our wedding on 5th August 2026, he was incredible every step of the way.

As the groom, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but Kane made the whole day feel so easy. He struck the perfect balance between being professional and feeling like one of the guests. He was so down to earth, approachable, and genuinely cared about making sure Hollie and I were relaxed and enjoying every moment.

Nothing was ever too much to ask. Whether it was organising everyone for photos, offering advice throughout the day, or simply checking that we were both okay, Kane went above and beyond. His calm attitude and attention to detail made such a difference, and it really helped us make the most of our wedding day.

It’s rare to find someone who is not only exceptionally talented at what they do but is also such a genuinely lovely person. Kane didn’t just capture our wedding, he became a memorable part of it.

Thank you, Kane, for giving Hollie and me memories that we’ll treasure for the rest of our lives. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer, I can honestly say you won’t find anyone better.

Kane Young Photography - Kane is an absolute professional. His photography and drone skills second to none. He is friendly and approachable, with excellent communications. He has an ability to turn our vision, of our days, totally captured in both our photos and drone video. The turnaround time to receive our photos and video was outstanding. Kane has such an artistic eye, he captures not only the portrait but also the unposed emotions, allowing us to be who we are!

Kane has a very high level of professionalism. Amazing photographer with excellent communications and flexibility where possible. Kane provided an excellent service and beautiful photos of our small celebration, of our marriage at Seaham Hall. We also arranged a post marriage photos and video drone footage in one of our favourite places in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Kane was flexible in moving our photos time as there was heavy rainfall on the day. He didn’t have to do this, but he was able to that day and so he did! This was hugely appreciated, as it involved Kane travelling later in the day. The delay meant the rain had passed and we could go on walkabout to the falls and local area that was special to us. We don’t like being centre of attention, but since it was a special day for us Kane just somehow captures you at your best. His artistry capturing candid moments, unposed emotions and making us feel at total ease. Kane captured beautiful moments and even did drone footage of us looking at the falls from the bridge and drone footage going under the bridge capturing the falls in all their splendour. He also captured drone footage of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Kane delivered great photos of our special place and amazing drone video footage of our day and the surrounding area of our cottage stay. Turnaround time for photos and video were outstanding. Such happy memories made for us. Great value and would highly recommend Kane for all your photographic needs. Thank you Kane Young Photography, so much appreciated.

100% Recommend! Captured the emotions of our day perfectly

We honestly cannot put into words how amazing Kane was as our wedding photographer. From start to finish he went above and beyond, making sure every special moment of the day was captured. He went out of his way to make sure the day even flowed like it was supposed to, he’s very talented at what he does and we could not recommend him enough!
Kane was amazing at capturing our individual and group photos that we’d requested, he made sure they were done quickly and made the whole experience feel very natural.
We loved Kanes candid style of capturing us as well as all our guests. He captured the emotions of the day perfectly. Thank you so much!

Great photographer

We honestly couldn’t recommend Kane Young enough.

Kane photographed both our pre wedding shoot and our wedding day, and from start to finish he was brilliant. He made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, which really helped us relax and enjoy the whole experience. On the wedding day itself, he captured everything perfectly all the natural moments, the emotion, and the little details that made the day so special.

The photos are absolutely stunning and something we’ll treasure forever. Kane was also really helpful after the wedding, advising us on where to get prints done and even arranging for our wedding photo album to be printed for us, which made the whole process so much easier. He also created an amazing video highlight that captured the day beautifully.

10000% recommend

We honestly can't thank Kane enough for capturing our wedding so beautifully. He truly is a master of the art and you can tell from the minute he turns up he gives 110% to the job, and is not shy to get stuck in to get the right shot. He is a pleasure to have around and honestly makes it so enjoyable. Coming from a couple who weren't to keen on posey photos too much, we absolutely love those of them we got. It doesn't feel forced and Kane can definitely be trusted to use his own creative vision. Our wedding photos are utter perfection and so was the whole day which he helped keep on track. He is not shy to tell people what to do or how to do it to ensure the shot is perfect and that is definitely what you want. We ended up with over 2000 photos and we honestly can't pick even 20 favourites because there are so many beautiful ones. Myself and my husband can't put into words how grateful we are and we would 100000% recommend for any event but especially YOUR BIG DAY!! THANK YOU :)

Robson wedding 2026

Kane was absolutely fantastic from the day we met him. He provided us with excellent advice for the wedding day before we had even booked him. All communication was clear and quickly responded to on the lead up to the wedding. On the day, we couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. He knew exactly what he was doing and made everyone feel at ease. The formal photos he took were absolutely stunning and he was very good at capturing beautiful moments throughout the day without us even noticing! 100% would recommend his services to others

Colin and Julie Wedding 13/12/25

What can we say other than wow! Kane arrived on time, very personable and professional and knew exactly what he was doing. He managed to organise the photos in a timely and efficient manner in a tight turn around. He just mingled throughout the day and most of the time we didnt even know he was there. I received my video and photos literally 2 days after the wedding and they are stunning. I wasn’t sure about a budget when I booked him but I checked his portfolio against other photographers and felt that his prices were reasonable. Thank you so much Kane for capturing our perfect day.

Above and beyond!

Kane was very professional throughout and was very reassuring on the calls leading up to our wedding day. On the day itself Kane has took incredible photos and even stepped up to coordinate venue staff and ensure our day went smoothly. I couldn't recommend Kane enough.

The perfect eye for our perfect day

We couldn’t be happier with the experience we had with Kane for our small, intimate wedding ceremony. From start to finish, he was not only professional but also incredibly warm, thoughtful, and intuitive. He made us feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera, which truly showed in the natural, heartfelt moments he captured throughout the day.
Despite the intimate nature of our wedding, Kane managed to tell the full story with his photography and videography. Every detail from the quiet, emotional moments to the candid laughter shared between our family was beautifully documented. His style is timeless yet creative, with a fantastic eye for composition, light, and emotion.
What truly stood out was how unobtrusive he was. He blended seamlessly into the day and felt like one of us, capturing authentic moments without ever making us feel like we were posing or being directed. Watching the final video and seeing the photos brought all those special moments rushing back we have laughed, we have cried, and we are genuinely in awe of how he managed to encapsulate so much feeling in each shot.
If you're looking for someone who is not only incredibly skilled but also kind, reliable, and an absolute joy to be around with good energy and humour, we wholeheartedly recommend Kane Young Photography. His work exceeded all our expectations and gave us memories we’ll cherish forever.
Thankyou so everything

Outstanding photographer!

We chose Kane to photograph our wedding and he did not disappoint! He was amazing from start to finish, from our initial appointment talking through our vision and expectations to making them a reality and more! Kane is fun, friendly and professional. He has excellent communication and organisational skills ensuring our day ran smoothly, he is very responsive to messages and also had our beautiful photos turned around less than 48 hrs after the wedding. He captured our day perfectly and we would 100% recommend him for weddings. We have received so many compliments on our wedding photos!

Thank you Kane!

Look no further - than kane young ♥️

When you’re a wedding photographer yourself of 20+ years experience, who do you choose to shoot your own wedding ?
Exactly.
Luckily, I’ve known Kane for … ever it seems like, he was always asking questions when I was well established as a pro photographer and he was becoming more and more interested in becoming a professional photographer.
He has a great personality and is a whole lot of fun, as well as a highly skilled photographer.
His wedding photography has developed over the last 10-15 years and I can say he’s probably one of the very best in the North East, if not the north of England.
He works a wedding very like I used to. Gain the confidence of the bride and groom before the big day, then on your wedding day, he’s like a ninja, popping up here and there, always capturing the important images, but with the minimum of fuss.
He’s always in the background taking many candid images of all the guests. He’s always up for fun, always open to suggestions, but Kane should just be left to ‘do his thing’ basically, and he will not disappoint you with a large selection of great images from your very important day.
First class professional, and a great wedding photographer.
Cheers our friend !

Kane Is Thee Best!

Kane is an amazing photographer.. He didn’t just capture our day he also helped run it and make it go as smoothly as possible. He is very down to earth and friendly and couldn’t have been any more helpful if he tried. He captured the most beautiful natural photos (even with naughty pups and husband who didn’t like his photo taken) The quality of his work is fantastic and I would highly recommend Kane to shoot your day. You won’t regret it. Thanks again Kane. xx
