Stanhill Court Wedding Photography - Lizzie and Sam
It was such an honour to be a part of Lizzie and Sam's day which for me started at Lizzie's parents house in Reigate. This is where Lizzie, her mum and bridesmaids were all getting ready. A very calm morning on what was to be a beautiful day. Meanwhile Sam was with the rest of the groomsmen taking in the morning sunshine in Betchworth where the church service was to be held.
Surrey church wedding
St Micheals Church aptly situated in Church Street, Betchworth is a lovely picturesque church. Entering through the fantastic lych gate it was a short walk in the blazing sun for Lizzie when she was escorted round to the entrance by her father. There was an amazing rendition by the betchworth choir before, during and after the service which was a delight to hear. After the service all the guests waited for Lizzie and Sam who made a quick run through a tunnel of confetti to get to the Lych gate before canapés were served.
Stanhill Court Hotel weddings
I love photographing weddings at Stanhill Court Hotel. It's such a great location for a photographer. Lots of outside space, some real character inside the actual hotel and a conservatory with just to die for light. It really is an amazing victorian house which was built back in 1881 as a family dwelling but now a perfect place for a weekend away or a wedding. It's perfectly placed in Surrey to get to from all across the region. There was so much to do for Sam and Lizzie's guests. Croquet on the lawn, tasty canapé's being served, a steel band playing. It didn't then feel too long till everyone entered the conservatory and were treated to another surprise choir performance and this time our groom joined in. What a way to get the meal going! These guys know how to party and the evening was so much fun, the dance floor always heaving and lots of laughs being had. A pleasure to photograph. Thanks to Karolina for excellent assisting.

Sparkford Hall Wedding Photography - Ale and Amy
Sparkford Hall Weddings
I arrived at Alejandro and Amy's wedding to be greeted by one of the most relaxed settings you can imagine. The whole weekend was a celebration with the entire wedding party mingling with one another. Amy and her bridesmaids shared so many laughs whilst getting ready. Amy looked simply divine in her dress from Krystle Brides. At the same time Alejandro and the boys were playing it super cool at the other end of the house.
It wasn't long before Amy was escorted by her father down the aisle for a lovely ceremony in a wonderfully decorated room in the house.
The party was now in full swing and wih everyone able to relax outside in the sunshine taking in the amazing canapé's and drinking away. A hearty meat eaters delight was served outside in the adjacent marquee before Alejandro took charge with some vodka toasts. No doubt this helped the enthusiastic dancers of the party to hit that floor and bust out the moves.
A great wedding all round! Thanks to Alejandro and Amy for inviting me to be a part of an amazing day.
Rivervale Barn Wedding Photographer - Oli and Leyla
Having already photographed a wedding at Rivervale Barn I knew how gorgeous the barn is for wedding photography so was very much looking forward to working there again.
Rivervale Barn Weddings
Rivervale Barn is situated just in the Hampshire borders in Yateley and is a very popular wedding venue in the region and its not hard to see why. The staff at Rivervale are absolutely first class and the food served by Galloping Gourmet is out of this world. There is a fantastic cottage at Rivervale Barn where you can prepare and stay after the wedding and is where I found Leyla and her bridesmaids in the morning. At Rivervale beauty at the other side of the courtyard there is a separate make up studio. This really is everything in one place!
Oli and the boys were getting ready at a nearby hotel and arrived at the barn in plenty of time to welcome all the guests and it wasn't long till everyone was seated and awaiting the entrance of the stunning bride. It was a very heartfelt and moving ceremony and was a joy to photograph.
Natural and Relaxed Wedding Photography
A lot of the day I'm there to document the story of the wedding, to blend in with the guests allowing you to just relax and enjoy the day and I do the rest. This was no exception at Oli and Leyla's day and there was so much to document especially when you throw in magicians, live music, games and a sparkler exit in the evening! As usual at Rivervale Barn I took advantage of the stunning gardens which didn't disappoint as I took Oli and Leyla for a walk around. Something I thought I might not have the chance to do after the terrible weather the night before.
Huge thank you Oli and Lelya for making me feel like one of the guests at your wedding. You guys were so friendly and make a great couple, it was a pleasure to document your day. I can't wait for the next time I'm photographing at the barn again. It can't come soon enough! Thanks also to Ran Wilcox for assisting on the day.

Windsor Guildhall Wedding Photography - Mark and Tamsin
Windsor Guildhall Weddings
The english weather lived up-to its reputation but couldn't put a dampener on this wedding. I met with Mark at the Guildhall and it wasn't long before he was joined by the rest of the guests and led inside to await the arrival of Tamsin who was busy preparing at a hotel a stones throw from the Guildhall. Tamsin was looking absolutely stunning. A very heartwarming and special ceremony then took place. I managed to get a couple of photos of the newly married couple in this amazing location before everyone jumped on the party bus to the reception.
Wedding entertainment at its best
What I loved about mark and Tamsin's wedding was the pure joy on everyone's face and the amount of love that was shown. There were many laughs during the speeches as many different people spoke which made the evening a fun and lively affair. It was also great to see so many people on the dance floor partying the night away.
Pembroke Lodge Wedding Photographer
Pembroke Lodge Wedding Photography
Pembroke Lodge situated in Richmond Park is a beautiful Georgian mansion that has hosted weddings for over 50 years. This means you’re in exceptional hands. The team are absolute stars at organising and managing a wedding. I find them to be one of the best in the business.
Belvedere Suite
You have a choice of two rooms for your wedding at Pembroke Lodge. The Belvedere suite is situated at the rear of the house and was purposely built for weddings. The light in this space is amazing no matter what the weather is like outside. It has direct access to the terrace outside and those spectacular views across the Thames Valley. The Belvedere can have seating for 140 people during the day and can have 200 people for the evening celebration.
Russell Suite
The Russell suite is located upstairs in the mansion. It’s also a very bright room and you have access to the other rooms on this floor. All of them give you a different view of the beautiful surroundings. You can seat 70 guests in the Russell suite and 100 guests for the evening. Whichever suite you choose they are both incredibly photogenic and will provide the perfect backdrop for your wedding.
I feel privileged to be a wedding photographer at Pembroke Lodge. The grounds are stunning no matter what the weather. If it’s an engagement shoot, family portraits or photos of the newly wed couple you can’t beat the gardens here. There are a number of areas you can use for locations and backdrops to get some stunning photographs.
