Hannah & Alister’s Devon winter wedding yesterday

What a wonderful winter wedding Hannah & Alister had yesterday. Despite the gusty and wet weather they had a fantastic wedding day – and the bride looked gorgeous in her vintage styled wedding dress! Following their church ceremony in Plymouth everyone moved on to Kitley House Hotel for the reception and the warm Christmas setting was wonderful. I can’t wait to show a preview of some of the photos over the following week.

Wedding photo of the week

Whilst moving my studio this week to a new business premise in West Devon, I’ve come across so many great wedding shots that I’ve not looked at for a while. And thought why not share them with everyone if one catches my eye.

I love this particular photograph and remember the wedding at Yealmpton near Plymouth in the South Hams followed by the reception at nearby Kitley House Hotel. Just love the bride and father of the bride’s glances to each other at the altar.

Wedding photo of the day

Whilst designing an album for a couple whose wedding I photographed in August I was drawn to the beautiful and atmospheric light of this shot. The bridal party and me stopped off for some photos on Dartmoor and this stream setting was perfect – brings back so many great memories from their amazing day.

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!

Sunny October wedding of George & James in Devon

Wow the sun really did shine for George & James at the weekend! With one of the hottest days of the year – in October! The ceremony was held in the idylic setting of St Bartholomew Church in Cadleigh, Devon with the reception at the stunning new wedding venue of The Corn Barn near Cullompton.

What a wonderful time was had by all enjoying the last of the summer sunshine!

Davinia & Richard’s Wembury and Langdon Court wedding

From the moment I first spoke to Davinia & Richard I knew their wedding was going to be so much fun. They didn’t disappoint on the day and neither did the weather. The sun broke through the clouds on the happy couple leaving the St Werburgh Church overlooking Wembury Beach near Plymouth, Devon and continued thoughout the day. After some fun photos on the beach Davinia & Richard moved onto their wedding reception at the beautiful Langdon Court Hotel.

Here are a selection of photos from their day and I wish them every happiness for their life together.
