Luke and Shelley’s wedding at Bruisyard Country Estate was a doozy (that’s a good thing btw!!)!

Luke is a project manager and it was clear to see how much work had been put into their stunning day. But the attention to detail didn’t detract from the fun and emotion of the day. I hope it’s clear from the photos that the day was also full of life, love and laughter, all nestled in a gorgeous venue that I hope to come back to soon.

Ollie and Zoe’s wedding at The Old Bridge Hotel in Huntingdon was super chilled as they were keen to focus their attention on their guests by stripping away some of the usual wedding traditions such as speeches, first dance and cake cut etc.

This meant time pressures were removed and everyone could focus on catching up, eating, drinking, laughing and crying (the good kind!).

The short answer is well over 90% of wedding photographers don’t offer a money-back guarantee, but I do!

There are several reasons the vast majority of wedding photographers don’t offer a money-back guarantee, so let’s look at each one in turn.

When there’s dancing on the roof of The William Cecil then you know it’s a fun wedding!

I was delighted to book Jack and Beth’s wedding because I knew Beth’s mum through helping out at a charity ball to help The Phoenix School.

I knew it would be a fun wedding because when I asked them to describe their wedding in 3 words they said it would be fun, memorable and family-oriented.

Couple that with the beautiful William Cecil and you have the perfect combo of a fun couple and a great venue.

If you’re considering a destination wedding I’d love to be considered as your wedding photographer. In this blog post I’ve linked to a fantastic resource to help you plan your destination wedding.

I’ve enjoyed photographing weddings quite a few times at The Talbot Hotel in Oundle so I thought it would be helpful to give you a few thoughts and tips about the venue from a photographer’s perspective.

This is a guest post written by The Wedding Wire (although the photos are mine)…

The photographer plays a crucial role in any wedding, documenting the special, unique moments that take place throughout the day and night. The work they do on this all-important day will be cherished for the rest of your life, so you’ll want to make sure everyone’s on the same page when it comes to your wants and needs. In this post, we highlight four questions you should prepare for before your consultation with a wedding photographer. 

Orton Hall wedding venue in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire is great for wedding photos and this blog post explains why.

It’s hard choosing a wedding venue, so I thought having a photographer’s perspective would be helpful. Especially as I’m one of their recommended photographers.

Irnham hall near Grantham in Lincolnshire is the perfect venue for wedding photos for so many reasons…

…The majestic 650 year old Irnham Hall that makes the perfect backdrop

…A lake, meadows, flowerbeds and grand old trees

…A rope swing which is far too tempting not to play on!

…Fountains encircled by fairy lights

…A grand reception hall with beautiful decorations

Rustic weddings rule!! I loved Kay and Nicole’s quirky and rustic wedding at Mayday Retreats in Lincolnshire.

There were so many highlights it’s hard to know where to start. 

Maybe these snippets will give you a flavour of the fabulous kaleidoscope of love, laughter and lunacy we had at Kay and Nicole's wedding…

The Holmewood Hall wedding venue near Peterborough, Cambridgeshire is one of my all-time favourites. 

I know how hard it is for a bride and groom to choose a wedding venue, so I thought I’d explain what makes Holmewood Hall so great while also honouring this great venue (which also happens to be very near my home!)

Most venues have something that lets them down photographically but Holmewood Hall scores highly in every department. 

The venue is beautiful inside and outside, rain or shine, in every room and in every situation throughout the day.

Let me take you through the typical stages of a wedding and the benefits of choosing Holmewood Hall for each of those stages…

Daniel and Christina had a beautiful Autumn wedding at the majestic Putteridge Bury. 

They booked me after seeing me photograph a wedding they were guests at, which is always a lovely way to get picked.

Great banter and a chilled attitude meant the chilly weather was barely noticed as we celebrated surrounded by a kaleidoscope of Autumn leaves.

This post takes you through a typical wedding day at Bassmead Manor Barns while explaining what makes it fantastic for wedding photos.

Bassmead Manor Barns is a 700 year old estate that’s been turned into a wedding venue near St Neots. It has many special features that make it one of the most popular wedding venues in Cambridgeshire.

The phrase ‘Beautiful inside and out' most definitely applies to both Mike and Mae and their wedding venue, Holmewood Hall.

Holmewood Hall is perfect for wedding photos but their 3 adorable children did their best to steal mum and dad’s thunder at every opportunity. 

They also tried to steal my dignity with a variety of games, but fortunately I don’t have any!

Flaxbourne Gardens is the best outdoor wedding venue I’ve photographed at. The gardens have so many beautiful and quirky features that will wow your guests. They are also wonderful for creating unique and creative wedding photography. I’m very proud they have chosen one of my photographs as the front cover for their new brochure.
