Wedding Photographer – The Swan Hotel, Bibury – Rachael & Craig’s pre-wedding photo shoot
We’re really looking forward to photographing Rachael & Craig’s wedding this weekend at The Swan, Bibury. We did this pre-wedding shoot recently & guess who stole the whole show? Rachael & Craig have had the brilliant idea of using little boats for their guests to play with. Everyone will have a great time, that is if they can get the little red spotty boat off Freya!

Matara Wedding Photographer – Jo & Ali
We love working up the road at Matara, it is a unique wedding venue in the heart of the Cotswolds. With Matara’s tranquil and originally designed gardens, Jo & Ali wanted their wedding to be a relaxed, fun affair. They had arranged to stay the night prior to their wedding in the beautiful Regency House, which meant when we arrived to capture the excitement of the day, guests were already getting in the swing. Jo looked fabulous in a vintage mocha chic gown by Rembo Styling, with pearl & lace detail on a sweeping neckline and an amazing train with Read More
Cadbury House Wedding Photographers – Becky & Darren
We had been looking forward to this day ever since we had received an unexpected e-mail from Darren saying he had a surprise arranged for Becky. You’ll have to read on to find out what the surprise was! Chris and I were greeted by broad, grinning smiles from both Becky and her 3 bridesmaids who were all very well organised. This is the first wedding we have photographed in a long time where the whole bridal party was ready ahead of schedule. No last minute panics, nobody rushing around to locate those vintage ear-rings granny had given or trying to Read More
The Bay Tree Wedding Photographers – Yen & Dries
Back again to The Bay Tree today, we love this venue: it has such character and the staff are so efficient & friendly, the food tastes pretty good too! I love the story of how Yen & Dries met in Barcelona: Dries was at a conference and Yen was holidaying on her own after her sister was unable to join her. Alone and at a loose end, they both decided to book themselves on a cycling tour around the city and the rest is history. Fate was definitely intervening that day. With family & guests flying in from Taiwan and Read More
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
Kingscote Barn Wedding Photographers – Lisa & Andy
Kingscote Barn is one of our favourite venues: local for us and having met Lisa & Andy there recently for a pre-wedding shoot and coffee in the local pub, it was like meeting up with old friends. After so much rain (remember all the recent flooding?) we had a dry day and also a tiny ray of sunshine, hooray! It was fun watching the girls get ready and thanks to Ellie, the dresses finally got laced up! Brandon wasn’t too impressed with his special present, a lovely teddy bear wearing a ‘best boy’ top as this was immediately jettisoned onto Read More
The Manor House, Moreton-in-Marsh Wedding Photographers – Rebekah & Tim
It was lovely to see Rebekah & Tim again after doing their pre-wedding shoot in May. Back then, we had an evening with beautiful, warm sunshine and now after all the rain of recent weeks, what did the weather have in store for us today? The couple had chosen the Manor House Hotel in Moreton-in-Marsh to celebrate their wedding and were hoping for an outside ceremony but with dark clouds looming on the horizon, this was a switched to inside. Afterwards, guests enjoyed Pimm’s in the gardens whilst we whisked Rebekah & Tim off for some quiet time in the Read More
The Bay Tree Hotel Wedding Photographer – Corrina & Richard
Corrina & Richard had wished for a very relaxed wedding at The Bay Tree in Burford and with the hotel’s excellent, personal touch, they certainly had a lovely day. The Bay Tree is a great venue in all weathers (but we had blue skies today!) and to celebrate the Golden Jubilee, it was adorned in union flag bunting. Corrina looked so beautiful in a Caroline Castigliano ivory, silk gown and she smiled and laughed all day. After their intimate ceremony in the conservatory, guests enjoyed canapés & Pimms in the garden and the sun shone: quite unusual for this summer! Read More
The Mansion House & Riverstation Wedding Photographer – Charlotte & Simon
Charlotte & Simon had chosen two very different venues to celebrate their wedding in Bristol: The Mansion House in Clifton, with its Victorian grandeur and the Riverstation; a vibrant restaurant with wonderful views of the harbour. Charlotte was getting ready at a local hotel and on arrival, we found the lifts out of order so we had to climb 12 flights of steps, thank goodness our recent holiday in St Ives had involved lots cliff walking! Leesa Goodway’s makeup looked very natural and it was nice to find that Leesa is very local to where we live. Charlotte looked beautiful Read More
Kingscote Barn Wedding Photographers – Jo & Simon
Jo & Simon’s wedding was fun, fun, fun! It was an early start for us as Chris was covering the groom’s party getting ready (including a giant game of chess!) at the Cotswold Water Park and I was taking photos of the girls getting ready at one of our favourite venues, Kingscote Barn. Simon and his guests arrived on a red double decker bus, one of the old fashioned type with the open back and pole to grab hold of, providing some great photographic opportunities. After the ceremony, the guests enjoyed champagne and canapés on the terrace whilst others played Read More
