We live in an amazing super humongous world and yet the small, tiny island of Great Britain is full of some of the most outstandingly beautiful places I have ever seen. Nestled in the rolling hills of the Cotswolds, Euridge House & Orangery or also known as The Lost Orangery is a wedding photographer’s dream venue.
I do believe there are signs of spring starting to creep into each day, which means we are getting closer to summer sun and wedding season! Today I was lucky enough to head over to the beautiful, newly renovated Frogmill Inn just outside of Cheltenham. I will be photographing a wedding there in May and I can’t wait.
I met with Katie and Laury to talk about their wedding photography and how we can make their pictures special for the day.
It is always a good idea to meet with your wedding photographer before your date so you can just have a moment to sit down, have a beer (or gin or whatever your tonic is!) and just talk. No pressure and no where else to be. You can also go for a walk around the venue, discuss where pictures can be made during different times of the time or if the weather isn’t cooperating. The more you can be open about the day and what it could possibly hold (a.k.a the WEATHER) the better it’ll be on the day for picture expectations.
Creating photographs for a wedding that are personal to each couple is very important to me. I want to make sure I understand as a wedding photographer, who you are as a couple; what makes you laugh, smile and jump on each other’s backs! Once I have that information being your wedding photographer is just that much easier!
So, here’s to another wonderful day to come. If you are planning your wedding and still looking for a wedding photographer, I would love to meet you. I may be a Gloucestershire wedding photographer 90% of the time, but I am more than happy to travel to make your wedding day magical.
With a beautiful autumnal wedding taking place in the hall of Elmore Court; it was just the most beautiful light cascading through those windows that any wedding photographer could ask for.
The guests were seated, Tom and his brothers were waiting nervously at the top (even his brothers were nervous) with the angels looking down on them. AS the music started, I was in place ready to photograph the most beautiful Tamsin come sweeping down the aisle to her best friend Tom.
The beautiful Gillyflower. Elmore Courts room of dazzling lights and open, airy space for you and your guests.
With Tamsin the owner of White Truffle Signs , guests were in love with the beautiful variety of signs around Elmore Court.
The table centre pieces of flowers were all designed The Rose Shed with hues of orange and autumnal foliage.
Family is everything.
You don’t invite just anyone to your wedding. You invite the ones that mean the most to you.
We were blessed with a warm September’s day. On arrival at the AirBnB, I was greeted at the door by Gemma the most beautiful September bride. It was a flurry of activity getting ready and once everyone was dressed they were all whisked off to the church.
With a wonderful, touching ceremony and several laughs during the sermon, it was on to the gorgeous grounds of Bowood Hotel Golf & Spa Resort, Wiltshire. As you are welcomed through the grand gates, we couldn’t help but stop and take a few pictures.
As a wedding photographer in Gloucestershire, I get to travel around my beautiful county photographing many different wedding venues, fields and… well… more fields (I spend a lot of time in marquees in my Dubarry’s!)
On my first meeting with Katie and Laurie, I was greeted but the most fantastic energy! Katie and Laurie were full of smiles and bounce (yes bounce as in so much energy they could zap me with some of it). After out initial meeting at the Frogmill Inn and our walk around and mini pre wedding shoot (look here for a peek at it!) I was all set to be their wedding photographer.
