Kerry & Nathan at St Lalluwy Church in Menheniot & The Hannafore Point Hotel in Looe

Another lovely day of wedding photography in Cornwall with a truly lovely couple!  Kerry & Nathan have been together for quite a while & when I first met them it was obvious they really are meant for each other.

On the big day Nathan looked fab (and slightly nervous…) in his RAF uniform, and Kerry looked just beautiful in a dress that emphasized how tiny she is!

The church ceremony at St Lalluwy Church in Menheniot, Cornwall was wonderful and had such a happy atmosphere.  Afterwards we all headed off to the Hannafore Point Hotel in Looe, Cornwall, with its stunning views across the bay.  Kerry & Nathan wanted a bit of quiet time before greeting their guests so we stopped off at a spot overlooking Looe Island for some photos.  Onlookers were quite amused when chairs and a picnic basket emerged from the wedding car and the bride & groom proceeded to enjoy a cup of tea!

At the Hotel the room was looking beautiful, with the Mums heroically doing some last-minute decorating, and the wedding breakfast started with some very entertaining speeches.  Well done to everyone for those!

Later on we ventured outside again for some moonlit photography, before the evening entertainment started with a background slideshow of Kerry & Nathan’s ‘growing-up’ photos, followed by a brilliant disco that had everyone rocking!

Kerry & Nathan, thank you for involving us in your special day. We wish you both a long & happy life together and Nathan a safe return x

Wedding Photographers in Cornwall – Katie & Bobby at the Carbis Bay Hotel, Cornwall

Another wonderful day of wedding photography in Cornwall at the Carbis bay hotel. Well what can I say about these two, except they are just great fun!  Katie looked absolutely stunning (and very Cheryl Cole-like) in a gorgeous dress & no small amount of sparkle.  Even her shoes had ‘I Do’ written in sparkles underneath!  The atmosphere was calm, fun & friendly and I couldn’t believe how quickly the morning whizzed by.

Bobby’s face was a picture when Katie walked down the aisle, the ceremony was very touching and there were a few tears around the room.  Afterwards everyone rushed to get down onto the beach more wonderful wedding photographs in the September sunshine.  The little bridesmaids thought it was great, but weren’t so keen on leaving to go and start the wedding breakfast.  Afterwards – to everyones delight – a vintage ice-cream van courtesy of Mr B’s in Hayle turned up.  Katie had booked it as a surprise for Bobby, and she leapt into the van & started serving ice-creams!  I’m not sure who was most excited, but the hotel grounds quickly filled up with wedding guests holding ice-cream cones!

We rounded the evening of Cornish wedding photography off with our ‘photo booth’.  A chance for everyone to put on a daft wig and write a blackboard message to the bride & groom.  Ok we usually find that some guests just like having photos taken of themselves (and that’s perfectly fine!) but everyone joins in and it’s a brilliant way to thank the happy couple for a fab day.

Katie & Bobby, we had huge fun at your wedding and you are truly a special couple.  We wish you all the luck & love in the world for your future together x

Jackie & Colin at The Carbis Bay Hotel

Another wonderful day of wedding photography at the Carbis Bay Hotel, near St Ives in Cornwall.

It was the second time that this lovely couple have got married – to each other! They chose the beautiful Carbis Bay Hotel as their perfect venue, and their daughter Victoria (a professional wedding planner) came in rather handy with the organization, and what a wonderful job everyone did. The pink theme was girly, beautiful & everywhere! The room looked amazing, the guests were all incredibly happy, and Jackie looked absolutely radiant. After the ceremony the family headed to the beach where the grandchildren had great fun letting off steam, and we captured some wonderful photographs of the wedding party on one of Cornwall’s finest beaches.
Back at the hotel the Godrevy Room was transformed into the reception room, with more fabulous colours & treats for the grandchildren. But the biggest treat was the cake – a complete surprise for Colin – made in the shape of the top table with models of all the wedding party wearing their wedding outfits! We only met on the day and spent a few hours with them, but Jackie & Colin were so chilled they were an absolute joy to be with. Our very best wishes to you both and to all of your lovely family x

Fiona & James at St Werburgh’s Church, Wembury & Langdon Court Hotel

A beautiful day of wedding photography at Wembury and Lagdon Court Hotel in Devon.

The sun was well & truly shining on Fiona & James’ big day! I met Fiona at her parents house and was completely impressed by how calm & chilled everything was. Fiona’s friend did a fabulous job of the girls hair & the boys looked extremely dashing – if a little too warm! – in their kilts. Over at the church Robb had a lovely time in the sunshine photographing the groom & guests, until James spotted the warning sign about adders in the long grass & started to get a little nervous!
After the lovely service we headed down the driveway to take some shots close to the beach, before heading over to Langdon Court Hotel for the reception. The room looked beautiful and everyone had a wonderful time, which carried on late into the evening courtesy of some brilliant live music.
As Wedding Photographers it’s always a pleasure to photograph a couple truly in love and Fiona & James were no exception. Thanks to you both, and to your lovely families, for including us on your special day x

Ken & Claire at The Carbis Bay Hotel

As a wedding photographer in Devon and Cornwall you become used to the vagaries of the west country weather. Unfortunately there was no beautiful Cornish sunshine for Ken & Claire at their Carbis Bay hotel wedding – but they really didn’t mind!  Claire positively glowed, and although Ken looked a touch nervous (its allowed…) they were both so happy to be finally marrying their childhood sweethearts that even a hurricane couldn’t have spoiled their day!

As usual the ceremony room looked beautiful, and the intimate gathering of close family & friends were a truly happy bunch!  There were a few tears of emotion during the ceremony before everyone braved the rain at the poolside to let off loads of brightly coloured balloons and watched as they merrily floated off  like a rainbow coloured cloud in the direction of St Ives.

We wish you both a wonderful happy future together x
