Phil & Tina at St Audries

We had a great day at St. Audries with Phil and Tina. starting in the morning with Celfie with the hair and makeup, then Eden, the florist, arrived with the bouquets. We captured some wonderful pictures of the girls and boys getting ready. A memorable moment was when Tina's dad visited her early on. The weather was a bit wet in the morning, so umbrellas were required!

The ceremony took place in the orangery and went smoothly. We took confetti and group shots in the orangery due to the weather. Later, we moved outside for bridal party pictures and some stunning shots of Tina and Phil. KB Videography worked alongside me all day!

During the speeches a surprise as singing waiters entertained everyone and lifted the energy. After the speeches, we took Tina and Phil outside for more pictures since the weather had improved. We then proceeded to the cake cutting, made by Dreams and Wishes. and first dance with Geoff from Somerset Wedding DJ Services. As the the sun went sown, we were able to do sparkler photos outside. then some blue flash pictures! these nighttime shots a last opportunity before the late summer evenings!

Wedding Fair Season!

Its Wedding Fair Season!

A busy time of year with so much planning and excitement about 2024 weddings and beyond! Have you got all your suppliers yet?

The Fair at Dunster Tithe Barn was a great success with many people looking to book, this weekend I am at St Audries Open day on Sunday 28th and the week after at The Castle Taunton Wedding Fair!

Hope to see you at one of these upcoming events for a chat about you day and the possibilities, there will be so many quality supplier options available to suit everyone! As well as things you may not have even thought about!

 

A few things to think about your wedding photography:

Apart from pictures of you both, what is the most important picture you want to capture on the day?

How important are groups shots to you?

What areas of the venue would you say are important to include in your photo’s?

Would you like all the pictures outside or a mixture with inside being included?

Please ask me anything when I see you at the fairs but also via email or just over the phone!

First wedding of 2024

It was a beautiful January day in North Devon the sun was shining and the cool crisp morning air was refreshing! Today was the day Marc & Claire would get married at the lovely Sandy Cove Hotel in Ilfracombe! It was such a relaxed day with a handful of guests, just the way they wanted it! The service took place early afternoon near the terrace of the hotel overlooking the sea! We had a subtle Disney theme and the cake very much embodied that! After some small groups pictures we visited the beach for some creative images! and later some nighttime sparklers and flash images, what a great start to 2024 Congratulations and best wishes for the future Marc & Claire!
