Hurtwood Park Polo Club Wedding Photography

Nestled in the picturesque landscapes of Cranleigh, Hurtwood Park Polo Club stands as a testament to elegance and refined taste. It was here, amidst the rolling hills and the spirited ambiance of polo, that I had the honor of capturing a love story that unfolded against the backdrop of equine grace and sprawling greenery.

I knew from Megan and Sam's background from working in events that this was going to be an epic wedding and it sure was. The entertainment was up there with the best I've ever experienced and the dance floor was absolutely rocking!

Megan started the day in Guildford with her bridesmaids and family. It was really special capturing such intimate moments.

Hurtwood Park Polo Club in Cranleigh is not just a venue; it's an experience. The melding of polo excitement, equestrian elegance, and the sophisticated Pavilion creates a wedding day backdrop that is unparalleled in its beauty. As a wedding photographer, I was captivated by the unique charm of Hurtwood Park Polo Club, and feel privileged to have documented a love story that unfolded amidst the grace and grandeur of this extraordinary venue.

I'd love to return to Hurtwood Park polo club so if you're looking for a wedding photographer who specialises in relaxed documentary style weddings mixed in with some stunning portraits then please get in touch.


Matt and Kristen's Summer Wedding at Horsley Towers

A beautiful summer wedding at Horsley Towers

Horsley Towers owned by the De-Vere group is a wonderful 19th century Tudor styled mansion set in 50 acres of stunning grounds. It really is a fairytale setting for a wedding and every surrey wedding photographer's dream for places to photograph.

Matt and Kristen live in California so we didn't get a chance to meet until the day but after numerous very early zoom meetings we had a great rapport going. Matt grew up in the UK so this was a homecoming for him while Kristen's friends and family came all the way over from the states.

The rooms at Horsley Towers have so much natural light which is great for the bridal party while they are getting ready for the day ahead.

Time flies as everyone knows on a wedding day, it wasn't long before Kristen was being led downstairs to the Great Hall where Matt was waiting.

While the guests tucked into the most amazing looking canapés I whisked the guys off for a little tour of the estate. With all its medieval architecture and timeless appeal, the Towers at Horsley Towers are a photographer's playground. The stone walls, winding staircases, and hidden nooks create a sense of mystery and drama.

There was so much incredible looking food, the team at Horsley are very skilled at putting on a fabulous spread. After the food we had some hilarious and very heartfelt speeches before a very romantic first dance that started the evening celebrations that went on way into the night. Congratulations to Matt and Kerstin for organising such a wonderful day. Get in touch if you're organising your own wedding in Surrey.
