Daren & Ruth’s wedding booking came very late by typical standards, only securing my services about two months before their wedding date. Clearly they must be a laid back couple, or simply happy to go with any photographer who was available ;-) Once we met up and started chatting, I realised it wasn’t the […]
I’m never really sure if Dumbleton Hall should be considered a Cotswolds wedding venue, as despite it’s proximity to quintessential Cotswold villages (such as Winchcombe) it actually has a Worcestershire postcode. The fact it’s right on the edge of the Gloucestershire county boundary and only a stones throw from my home in Cheltenham, always makes it […]
The month of May conjures ideas in my mind of fresh spring sunshine, coupled with vibrant greenery and the smell of cut grass. So why was Tuesday pouring down with rain, with skies more reminiscent of a dull November day? Scott, Hayley and myself wondered the same too, which was why shifting their portrait photos […]
I was asked recently by my friend Gemma if I’d mind sharing a few tips on capturing the best holiday snaps for an article in the Huffington Post. This made me realise it would probably be useful to share a blog post covering these tips for better holiday photos, for those of you off on honeymoon after […]
I originally met Antonia’s mum at the Kingscote Barn wedding fair in March 2012. She’d been looking for a wedding photographer in Gloucestershire and decided despite the event taking place in a marquee in their own garden, she’d have a look around the fair to meet up with a few local suppliers. I guess if […]
My routine normally evolves around weddings at the weekends, but this week saw me photograph a Civil Partnership at Ellenborough Park in Gloucestershire instead. I’ve photographed a couple of Civil Partnerships over the past few years, each very different. On this occasion it was an intimate ceremony with only 13 guests, followed by reception drinks […]
If you’ve arrived at this blog post, it’s either a random act of Googling, or you’ve contacted me as you’d like to become a wedding photographer (or perhaps a photographers assistant). Whilst I wish I had time to respond to all these enquiries individually, unfortunately the reality of running a full time photography business means […]
If quintessential Cotswold village life is what you’re after then Moreton-In-March, Gloucestershire is going to tick the box. It’s here that Andy & Caroline chose to have their wedding at Manor House Hotel, a charming 16th Century Manor House in the heart of the Cotswolds. This is a venue I’ve photographed weddings at on several […]
I photograph quite a few weddings at Kingscote Barn, but being on my doorstep in Gloucestershire it’s always a trip I enjoy. Not only are the staff always very welcoming but couples who get married at Kingscote Barn tend to be good fun, easy going, and have a wedding day that goes with a bang. […]
Last weekends wedding at Kingscote Barn had a rather unpredictable start to the day. It wasn’t weather related either, in fact we’d had a rather nice run of weather in Gloucestershire the past week. On this occasion it was the groom who took centre stage, with a potential no show on his wedding day. Cold […]
