Tariq & Alexandria's Narnia themed wedding at Aynhoe Park

Venue: Aynhoe Park

"We're so thrilled with the final images of our wedding day.

 

"Every stage of the day has been shot beautifully, we're especially delighted that you managed to capture those intimate and emotional moments that are so special to us.

Your professionalism and discreet manner made all the photography natural and un-staged - exactly what we had hoped for."

Tariq and Alexandria

Tariq and Alexandria planned an incredible wedding at the jaw-droppingly offbeat, eccentric and altogether fantastic Aynhoe Park in Oxfordshire.

The amount of snow that fell during the previous night and on the wedding day itself meant that over half the wedding guests couldn't make it, let alone many of the suppliers. I only just managed to get to the wedding venue, which took me four hours instead of the usual one.

As pretty and enchanting as the snow was, especially during a Narnia themed wedding, it was surprising how little natural light there was. This was both good and bad. Bad, because we couldn't get outside for any portraiture, which would have been stunning. But really, very good, because the ambient light inside the venue came alive - it was intensified; rich colours, tones and structures which just added to Aynhoe's spectacular theatrical settings.

Therefore, even though Alexandria and Tariq's wedding couldn't go as planned, and I really felt for them, the wedding was nothing short of spectacular.

As I’m sure you’ll have gathered from our reactions when we came to see our wedding photographs, both Helen and I are thrilled with what you did for us.

You are a master at anticipating and capturing moments and emotions and telling a story with every picture. On top of this, you manage to make each image a thoughtful and interesting composition and a piece of art in it’s own right. I know from experience the talent that this takes to pull off.

You were great to have around on the day too with just the right level of presence at all times. We’ve enjoyed getting to know you and couldn’t be happier that we chose you to document our big day.

All the best

Paul and Helen Williams

This wedding meant a lot to me, in fact I think it'll take a while before it's knocked off my current list of favourite weddings to document. Not only did Paul and Helen have a pretty incredible wedding for me to document but Paul is also a professional wedding photographer, so I felt truly privileged to be documenting the wedding at St Audries Park in Somerset - a magnificent venue.

Below are just a few of my favourites from this beautifully subtle wedding in Somerset..

As always, I'd love to read your comments...

Natural Wedding Photography Cornwall

Not so long ago, we travelled down to the stunning St. Ives in Cornwall for Charles and Kahdine's wedding at the equally stunning Gonwin Manor in Carbis Bay.

I hadn't been to St. Ives since I was a young child and have very fond, vivid memories of our rock pooling sessions during a family holiday, so it was very pleasant indeed to return to document someone else's very personal day there.

The wedding was planned and run by the brilliant Sam Riley of Emotive Events Group and it ran absolutely perfect from start to finish and included some amazing entertainment such as The Singing Waiters, an excellent band and some breathtaking fireworks to finish the day.

Here’s just a little of my favourite Cornwall wedding photography,
