Last weekend saw me photograph a same sex wedding at Friars Court in Oxfordshire. It was Pete & Nick’s turn to tie the knot and they chose the splendid setting of Friars Court gardens to have their outdoor wedding ceremony. This venue is perfectly suited to outdoor wedding ceremonies (which are becoming ever more popular) […]
Several wedding venues I’ve worked at have other purposes besides, well, weddings! Firstly many are actually lived in homes, but are often used as film sets too, and Dorney Court is another such example. With Miss Marple and Poirot being filmed here previously this wedding venue was packed with historical charm. With accommodation on site and a […]
In my 10 years as a wedding photographer, as yet I’d not photographed a New Years Eve wedding. James & Naomi’s day was a first therefore, and it’s such a fun day to have a wedding. Clearly you’ll have all your friends at hand to celebrate, and who doesn’t want to party on New Years […]
Winter weddings are ever more popular and over Christmas this year I was at Eynsham Hall to photograph Jay & Laura’s big day. Wedding photography in winter is always a challenge, time is against you, it gets dark very early, typically it’s cold outside and guests are reluctant therefore to step out unless they have mulled […]
Over the Christmas break I photographed my first wedding at Eynsham Hall, an impressive Grade II listed country house near North Leigh in Oxfordshire. This is a venue I’d not been to previously, somehow it had escaped me (maybe as it’s not in Gloucestershire), but it’s certainly one I’d be delighted to return to. I’m leaving you with […]
The scene was set in this charming part of Oxfordshire, from the moment I pulled up at Catherine’s parents home. Today would fall into the category of, a quintessentially English wedding. It ticked all three boxes, the beautiful Georgian (?) manor house, classic vintage car and a marquee wedding reception in the garden. Albeit the latter had a 21st […]
Sit back for a stunning collection of Ardington House wedding photography which I must admit has as much to do with my bride being gorgeous, the weather superb and Ardington House a fantastic wedding venue, as it was down to my skills behind the camera! Sometimes it all falls into place, you have enough time […]
I had a doubler header this bank holiday weekend with the first wedding at Friars Court in Oxfordshire. This venue is perfectly suited to outdoor wedding ceremonies (which are becoming ever more popular), but a spanner can be thrown into the works when the weather has other ideas. Reported 25mph winds and heavy rain aren’t […]
Although Friars Court is a wedding venue I work at fairly often, I don’t actually know Oxfordshire all that well. As a general rule I photograph more weddings in Gloucestershire, but certainly enjoy a trip ‘slightly’ further afield in the Cotswolds when possible. Last weekend it was Lee & Tracey’s turn to tie the knot, […]
Saturday the 18th August is a special day, not only was it Ashley & Laura’s wedding day, but also my little girls birthday. In true Matt Davis style though, I postponed birthday arrangements and ended up at work in Oxfordshire, returning to the popular wedding venue of Friars Court. I did miss out on pony […]
