Wonderful Exmoor winter wedding in Somerset

Hi,
Couldn’t wait to share the gorgeous wedding photos from Ashley & David’s New Year wedding in Dulverton, Somerset. They’re such a fun and loving couple who didn’t let the weather dampen their enjoyment of the day. The candel lit wedding ceremony was breathtaking and a real challenge as well as a great opportunity for some really atmospheric photos.

Wishing all my clients past, present and future a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! The forthcoming year is looking very exciting and not just for all the wonderful couples whose weddings I’m photographing but all because I proposed to my partner and she’s thankfully accepted! We are officially engaged! We’re so happy and now know how you brides and grooms to be feel!

My wedding photo of the day

I was going through the many weddings I’ve photographed over the years and realised how exciting it is to view photographs with fresh eyes. Yes they all show my tell tale signs of painterly colour, use of ambient light and atmospheric quality but I can also see how my style and work has evolved.

This particular photo was from a winter wedding on Dartmoor. The day was cold but crisp and the marriage service started just as the light was fading. The reception was held on the high moor and the brides first dance was sung by the original composer and singer of a very well know and popular song – who also happened to be her uncle!

I’ll always remember it as it was amazing and reminds me again why I love weddings so much!

New feature: Photo of the Day

Hi Everyone,

I’ve some very exciting news to share. I’m going to be adding a photo of the day to my blog and Facebook page. From memorable wedding photos to portraits, general observations and my fine art work I’ll be sharing a small part of my artistic vision and some of the story behind it.

My first photo is a great wedding photo from July last summer. The wedding took place just outside Bath and with the sun shining the landscape looked stunning. The bridesmaids were walking up a farm track near the curch and acting up for their partners who wre taking their photos. needless to say I couldn’t resist taking the photo that conveyed the fun they were all having.

Somerset wedding of Vicky & Jon

What an amazing country house wedding in Somerset of a lovely and fgriendly couple. Their day went so well and their guests really made the day.

The venue near Bath was stunning and the romantic church provided a stunning setting for their exchange of vows.

Spring wedding at St Audries, Somerset

Just thought I’d share some photos from an early spring wedding at St Audries. The couple had a lovely day, and just one freak shower.

St Audries is a stunning wedding venue in Somerset and one I love photographing at.
