Highcliffe Castle Wedding Photography | Alex and Tom

Highcliffe castle wedding photography
Alex and Tom held their wedding at the marvellous Highcliffe Castle, one of the country's most beautiful examples of Romantic architecture. Not only is it a delight to view, but with the beach just a short walk away and gardens and woodlands to explore, it offers many lovely backdrops.

Some particular highlights for me were: an epic guys vs girls dance-off, bannister sliding (including from the bride and groom!) and what must be the most romantic sparkler kiss ever.

Enjoy these selected shots from the day.

Somerset wedding photography | Holly and Andrew

Somerset wedding photography kiss under trees
Wow what an awesome wedding this was! Firstly it was super convenient for me as it was held just a stone's throw away from my parent's home on the Blackdown Hills, so no long drive at the end of the day this time!

Holly and Andrew held their wedding ceremony at St Giles Church in Bradford-on-Tone and followed this with a spectacular marquee wedding at Holly's parent's home. The day included entertainment from the mesmerising String Fever, who totally wowed the crowd with their after dinner performance. Another highlight for me was when I took Holly and Andrew out for a dusk shoot on the adjacent meadow... beautiful light, romance and not forgetting the bare chested guest who photobombed us! In fact I think he could could well be doing a grand jéte after some ballet research... or he's just being a big lad ;)

The evening saw a packed dance floor with everyone loving the tunes from band Munch. Andrew got to try crowd surfing and Holly was given more delicate handling by being lifted up on a chair, much to her obvious delight! I left the newlyweds to shake and shimmy it till the wee small hours. Here are some of my favourites from the day.

The Corn Barn Devon | Elly and Rich

Corn Barn wedding photography
A beautiful setting, sunshine, a gorgeous bride and handsome groom, Tibetan flags, singing, dancing and lunging into the night! All making for quite the celebration at Elly and Rich's wedding held at the Corn Barn in Devon. It was wonderful to capture all the action and by the time I departed, it felt more like leaving old friends.

Enjoy this small selection from their day.
