Berkeley Castle Wedding Photographers – Model Photo Shoot

As a highly recommended supplier to Berkeley Castle, we were invited to exhibit at their recent ‘Wedding Inspiration Day’ and were asked to do an impromptu photo shoot around the beautiful gardens. Berkeley Castle have recently won the ‘Best UK Wedding Venue’ Award and couples welcomed the opportunity of exploring the castle & gardens. With hair/makeup by Double Dutch, beautiful bridal gowns by Rosella Wedding Gowns and bouquets by Sorori Design Florist, Chris captured some beautiful photos of Grace & Sophy. Chris and I have photographed many weddings at Berkeley Castle: both Civil Ceremonies in the Great Hall and Church Read More

Berkeley Castle Wedding Photographers – Lizzie & Neil

We can plan for most things except the weather and, it would appear road works! Like those which appeared the day before Lizzie & Neil’s wedding right outside Lizzie’s parents’ house. So we had diggers, traffic cones, lights, signs and one way traffic to contend with. Thankfully, Lizzie’s parents were on the case and when Lizzie was ready to leave, the helpful workmen cleared an area beside the house, turned both sets of traffic lights onto red so that Lizzie could cross the road to get into her wedding car and set off for her fairytale wedding at Berkeley Castle.

The Bay Tree Wedding Photographers – Rachel & Neil

MARCH! Can someone please tell this weather that it is March and we are all waiting for Spring to arrive! Heavy snow was forecast so we decided to follow the boy scout motto and ‘be prepared’ so we opted to take the 4×4 and bump along the country lanes to Burford. We had our wellies, blanket, flask of whisky (sorry that should say hot drink) and shovel ready for action but we were greeted by an icing sugar dusting of snow, how disappointing. We love weddings at The Bay Tree, a beautiful 16th Century Inn set in the Cotswold and Read More

Berkeley Castle Weddings – Kate & John

Berkeley Castle Weddings. Kate & John held their wedding at Berkeley Castle, one of our favourite venues and just up the road from us. Kate was early for the ceremony, that’s so unusual but so very welcome as we were able to capture some lovely, relaxed moments in the courtyard. Some guests however, were not quite so punctual! Kate looked stunning in a San Patrick satin gown with beaded straps and asymmetric ruched bodice adorned with unique appliqué down the side. There were few funny moments in the ceremony, I won’t embarrass John but some of the wording was changed Read More

Berkeley Castle Wedding Photographers – Claire & Chris

Claire & Chris were married at Woodchester Priory, a beautiful church high on a hill in Nailsworth. The groom’s party wore kilts and as it was very windy day, all the girls were just wondering ‘what if the wind just whipped up a bit more?’ But it didn’t although I was ready with the camera! After the ceremony, Claire & Chris were driven to Berkeley Castle in a 1929 Vintage Cadillac, an amazing car driven by Steve, who is always so friendly and keeps the car immaculate. Berkeley Castle is amazing and steeped in history: one of our favourite venues. Read More

Berkeley Castle Wedding – Natalie & Jon

After atrocious weather the day before, everyone breathed a sigh of relief to see the sun shining for Natalie & Jon’s Berkeley Castle Wedding. Taking photos of Natalie and her bridesmaids was so easy as everyone was very relaxed and her Dad helped with the lacing of the bodice, a lovely touch. Natalie wore a beautiful ivory duchess satin dress with rosettes and pleated bodice, she looked stunning, certainly the right dress for Berkeley Castle. Getting married in such an amazing venue, means you need a big dress! Her bridesmaid wore primrose coloured dresses, such a refreshing colour and to Read More

Berkeley Castle Wedding Photographers – Tracey & Ross

Tracey & Ross celebrated their wedding at one of our favourite venues, Berkeley Castle, an amazing castle steeped in history, overlooking the Severn and the Welsh Borders. First stop was Tortworth Court where both the bride and groom were getting ready. Chris photographed the groom’s party, which included a quick visit to the bar and later some photos on the gun terrace at the castle. Meanwhile, I was kept entertained by the four bridesmaids who were re-enacting a scene from ‘Blue Peter’ making a stand for the confetti cones. They seemed to use everything except ‘sticky backed plastic’, a great Read More

Tracey & Ross – Lifestyle Shoot

We met Tracey & Ross at Berkeley Castle to go through the last minute details for their wedding in a couple of weeks’ time. We then took the opportunity of doing a pre-wedding shoot just outside the castle grounds and here are a few of the photos. I particularly love the ones in the field, they look like watercolour paintings: soft pastel colours, so romantic. Tracey & Ross must have agreed as they chose an image of them sitting in the grass for their signature board. Read More
