Last weekend was my first visit to Elmore Court, a relatively new wedding venue in Gloucestershire. It’s described as a Grade II listed mansion and didn’t disappoint on that account. It’s grand entrance doorway leads into the main wedding drinks reception room which has epic proportions and a plethora of beautifully furnished rooms spilling off it. […]
Whatley Manor wedding photos – Jeff & Anne
If you’re looking to pick the perfect autumnal day for a wedding, Jeff & Anne must have hit a home run. With Whatley Manor as a backdrop the photos would certainly turn up trumps. September offers the kind of light you don’t get in the height of summer. Yes the evenings are closing in sooner, but when you have […]
Highcliffe castle wedding photos – Oliver & Sarah
It’s the wedding with LOADS. Load of loveliness, loads of bunting, loads of teacups, loads of cakes, loads of sand, and most importantly loads of laughter. Welcome Oliver & Sarah to the blog, with a wedding that’s not your typical day out. I don’t normally indulge in afternoon tea or picnics on the beach, but […]
Outdoor wedding at Whatley Manor – Jeff & Anne preview
A quick preview of Jeff & Anne’s beautiful outdoor wedding at Whatley Manor from this weekend. If you’re having a small wedding this will be one to watch out for. Whatley Manor is a splendid Boutique Hotel in the Costwolds catering for a limited number of weddings each year, providing the perfect balance of intimacy and luxury. […]
Birtsmorton Court wedding photos – James & Karen
Since first photographing a wedding at Birtsmorton Court in 2007, it’s been a regular fixture in my diary ever since. Some years however, (2013 for one) my bookings clashed and unfortunately any enquiries I had for wedding dates, were already taken. Fast forward to this year, and I have 2 weddings at Birtsmorton Court in […]
Wedding photos at The Wood Norton – Scott & Emily
On occasions, some couples really stick in my mind. Scott & Emily are one of them. With meeting lots of couples and photographing around 40 weddings a year my mind space becomes very consumed with work, new people, wedding dates and so on. To try and remember everyone is a tough act, yet I still […]
Eastington Park wedding photos – James & Susanna
The weather often forms part of my preface to a blog post, and with the extensive flooding we’ve had this winter throughout Gloucestershire I’ve kept a keen eye on what’s been happening locally. Thankfully last weekend there was no sign of rain, instead the forecast was for wall to wall sunshine. If you’re going to […]
Wedding photography at Limpley Stoke Hotel – Nick & Sian
I’d previously met Sian having photographed her sisters winter wedding at Matara back in November 2010. Clearly time flies, and this time around it was Nick & Sian’s turn to take the limelight. I say this, but the reality was very different. Neither Sian or Nick are attention seeking types, but like it or not, […]
Caradoc Court wedding photos – Simon & Bianca
Many moons ago I was contacted by Bianca who was very excited about the idea of me being her wedding photographer. I recall her main concern at the time being the fact I’m based in Gloucestershire, and therefore would I cover her wedding at Caradoc Court (which is in Herefordshire). Safe to say, it’s not […]
