Black jumpsuits for wedding photographers
Declan Cotton Culotte Leg Jumpsuit by Popsy Clothing, £48
This is 95% cotton and 5% elastane, so breathable and cool for those warm weather weddings whether you’re in Santorini or Skegness! We love Popsy because their products are designed and made in the UK and they have a huge range of prints. Also, the single most important feature for any wedding photographer: it has pockets. So you have a handy place to put your lens caps, mobile phones, and emergency sewing kits in! This design is also available in navy, or there is a slightly cheaper polyester/elastane mix version in Teal which might work for cooler wedding days.

How bloody awesome is that?! MAD PROPS to Lucy and Yak! This Finn jumpsuit comes with a 4.75 star rating from over 90 reviews! Made from certified organic cotton and linen this would be perfect for the eco-conscious wedding photographer!
