I first met Sam and Phil and the Detling Wedding Experience show. After a quick consultation we had a pre wedding shoot in the glorious grounds of Leeds Castle which offered the couple to try out the poses and get used to the idea of being photographed. Sam and Phil chose the Spa Hotel in Tunbridge Wells as the venue for both their ceremony and the reception. Having shot at the Spa Hotel before I knew the grounds as well as the hotel itself offer some fantastic photographic opportunities. Needles to say I was not disappointed. The light was magical, the couple were a joy to work with and the guests… well just look at the shapes they threw at the dance floor!

Sam and Craig tied the knot at the St Peter and St Paul’s Church in the picturesque village of Ayelsford and they could not have picked a better day for it. After the bridal prep at Sam’s family home I ventured down to Ayelsford to retrieve Craig from the village pub, where he was making his last minute preparations, helped by a glass or two of liquid courage of course. A brisk walk to the church later we awaited the arrival of the bridal party. Once they made it to St Peter and St Paul’s, and after a giggle or two outside the church, I was privileged to witness an intimate and moving ceremony which you can see for yourself below. Following the ceremony, we made our way to the wedding reception held at the Barnyard in Upchurch. The wedding was accommodated in a marquee located in the Barnyard’s stunning grounds, full of fantastic photo opportunities. I loved every minute I spent crafting this couples’ story and I hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I have.

Diane and Huw were one of those couples who booked me two years in advance of their wedding at Cooling Castle Barn in Kent. During this time I not only managed to photograph them during their pre-wedding shoot but also had the privilege of doing a beautiful, newborn photoshoot for their baby boy, who happened to arrive in the meantime. Working with them on the two occasions was a pleasure and it meant that they both felt relaxed and happy in front of the camera. The ceremony and reception was held in the Cooling Castle Barn in Kent, with charming grounds and rolling Kentish countryside as well as experienced team, who make organising weddings look like a walk in the park.

I was lucky to be part of Joanna and Ryan’s fabulous wedding at the Taplow House Hotel in Maidenhead, Berkshire. We started with a fun and very emotional bridal prep in the Hotel suite,which was filled with tear-jerking moments especially when the bride to be opened her gifts. Followed by a wedding ceremony at the St Michael’s Church in Bray which was made even better by the lovely summer weather. Following the ceremony, the party moved back to the Taplow House Hotel where the reception was held. After the wedding breakfast and hilarious speeches we made use of the hotel’s enchanted grounds for the bride and groom portraits. I loved the intimate atmosphere of the Hotel and the grounds which, together with a fun-loving and energetic wedding party made for an unforgettable experience.  

Back in November I had the pleasure to photograph Arianne and Alvin who are getting married next Sunday at Salomons, Tunbridge Wells. They chose this beautiful spot by River Medway near the Malta Inn in Maidstone for their shoot and I couldn’t be happier with the scenery not to mention the awesome autumn light.  Needless to say we had a fantastic couple of hours goofing around and taking photos and you can see a small selection of these below. I must say I am really looking forward to their special day too especially as it is going to be a traditional Indian Wedding and I cannot wait to be a part of it.
