Macarons & A French Couture Gown

 

The bride’s impeccable taste stole the show at her Almonry Barn wedding.

With sleeves crafted from exquisite Calais lace, and billowing skirts, Rachel’s dress was relaxed but stylish. Amber Persia’s florals were as luxe and lovely as ever, Anna Cake Couture created an elegant cake table, and delicious cuisine came courtesy of The Pickle Shack. Applying a light touch to the palette and style allowed my favourite Somerset wedding barn to shine, and made the perfect backdrop for this beautiful, happy day.

The French Connection

Destination Wedding At A French Farmhouse

 

“Flowers, wine and food in my Aunt’s garden in France” wrote the bride.

It all came together on the day for this completely gorgeous couple. Family was the key to their relaxed, beautiful couple of days at a family gîte in Lot-et-Garonne. From venues to catering to flowers to cake… family and friends spared nothing to bring the vision to life. And in the midst of it all they found energy to welcome and count me as part of the family. (Check out the credits below to find out who created what.)

Sopley Mill Wedding

Sopley Mill Wedding

The Victorian Romance

At Sopley Mill 

an autumn wedding at a victorian heritage venue.

Sopley Mill is a Victorian Watermill, tastefully renovated in modern industrial style to provide the perfect blank canvas. The Mill’s iconic red brick walls overlook the water meadows in the Dorset countryside. The couple created a classic, vintage chic vibe with a nod to the 1950s and lashings of pink.

Winter London  Wedding

In a Library on Pall Mall

 

This winter wedding was rich with berry red, gold and green tones. The style was kept simple and classic, allowing the vibrancy of the venue and the couple’s style and personalities to shine.

I love to indulge my passion for architecture and interiors. History is full of fascination for me, be it through paintings, sculpture or buildings – perfect for me as a London wedding photographer.

This London wedding beautifully referenced the careers of the bride and groom with its setting of a private library. Both being university professors there was no better place to celebrate their union than an antique library stocked to the rafters with leather-bound books.

Portraits were shot in the garden of the Pall Mall Club, overlooked by iconic Georgian London townhouses. Afternoon golden hour afforded a few extra shots on the balcony.

Elegant white-washed chapel wedding

Classic Fine Art wedding

Today I am sharing a beautiful fine art wedding, captured on film in a country village.  I really love it when couples keep it elegant and pared back.  Featuring pops of red and a cream tea reception, this is a classic and elegant fine art wedding.  I shared this lovely couple’s engagement shoot a while back.

Autumn/Winter Colour Palette

Finally we have the first snow in years here in the West Country! It’s a real winter wonderland out there, so before it melts away I want to share this late Autumn wedding. With lush greens and rich berry reds it features a beautiful wintry colour palette to the florals and cake, in addition to the fading hues of the Autumn leaves. There are lots of pretty details here – and the most darling flower girl and pageboy!

Country Chic

The country chapel ceremony for close friends and family was followed by a relaxed Cream Tea in the sweet old village schoolroom.  The minimalist interior of the Somerset chapel – with light-washed walls and dark oak pews – gave a great backdrop for some crisp imagery. I shot the ceremony mainly on black and white film.

Afterwards in the old schoolroom mouthwatering profiteroles, meringues and scones were laid out on trestle tables, and washed down with local cider! All provided carefully and with exceptional service by local caterer Jean.

Luxurious film tones

A change of venue and outfits saw the second part of this wedding in London, which I will share later. But for now, enjoy the gorgeous Kodak film tones of this lovely Autumnal Somerset wedding!
