2017 Wedding Photography Highlights

unique cornish wedding photography in a field Truro

How fast is January whizzing by?! Christmas seems like months ago and we’re looking forward to another year of  beautiful wedding photography in Cornwall, Devon and beyond this year. But 2017 was fabulous as well and we even managed to visit some of our favourite venues several times!
We’ve spent the afternoon compiling a few of our favourite images from some of our lovely 2017 weddings! Some are posed, most are not, but each image has our signature natural, romantic and bespoke style. Thank you 2017 brides & grooms – and thank you to all of the hard-working wedding co-ordinators that we had the pleasure of working with. We loved you all!! (more…)

Tom & Lydia at The Carbis Bay Hotel

A slightly windswept Bride & Groom on Carbis Bay Beach!

Our very last wedding of 2017, a tiny occasion with just Tom, Lydia, their two guests and their beautiful baby!  The days between Christmas and New Year can be a bit dull even in beautiful Cornwall (collapsing on the sofa with a box of choccies can sometimes lose its charm…) so I was super pleased when Tom booked me for their wedding.  Everything was casual, the Carbis Bay Hotel looked beautifully Christmassy and even the weather behaved itself.  Bit of a fresh breeze(!) and the sea was having a tantrum, but Tom & Lydia were happy to brave the beach!  We wish them every happiness for a fabulous future 🙂 (more…)

Tanya & Andy at The Carbis Bay Hotel

Another gorgeous Carbis Bay Hotel wedding. This time at the end of a very busy summer season, when the hotel and beach were full of holiday makers enjoying the spectacular surroundings. It’s a definite perk of being recommended wedding photographer at the Carbis Bay Hotel that we get to see the bay in all its glory throughout the year.

Last Wedding Fair of 2017

Well we can’t quite believe how quickly 2017 has gone so far! We’ve had an amazing year of weddings, with lots of fabulous couples, but its not all over just yet. Our last wedding fair of the year is the Art of Weddings Show on Sunday 24th September at the St Austell Conference Centre, between 11am & 3pm. We’ll have an amazing show offer available on the day too.

With so many quality wedding suppliers under one roof, its a great opportunity to book your photography, try some cake, think about your stationery, choose your flowers and so much more. You can even order bespoke wedding rings!

See you there 🙂

Nicky & James at Polhawn Fort

Kate & Paddy at St Mary the Virgin, Walkhampton & EverAfter at Grenofen

romantic wedding photos in the Dartmoor rainSo much fun, is how we’d describe Kate & Paddy’s gorgeous day at Ever After on Dartmoor!  It is the most beautiful venue with amazing photo opportunities everywhere.  In fact we had real trouble deciding which images to blog!

Kate has to be one of the most serene and chilled out brides we’ve ever photographed.  The day dawned bright & sunny and we ignored the rain forecast for later.  Robb headed off to the church and I hopped on the bus with bridesmaids and guests.  Full credit to the choir too, who sang Adele’s ‘make you feel my love’ beautifully during the signing of the register.

Bethan & Dan’s Quirky & Laid-Back Wedding at Polhawn Fort (with surfboards!)

When Bethan and Dan got in touch with us about capturing their wedding at Polhawn Fort, it was a lovely surprise to hear that they lived in the same town as us. With Dan’s family being in Cornwall and a lot of their friends living locally, Polhawn was an obvious choice.  But with Bethan’s family travelling from Wales it was very much a priority for everyone to have a relaxed and fun day.  Polhawn Fort had been able to offer them a short-notice booking, and Bethan did an amazing job getting everything arranged while being super-mum to their little boy.

Carina & Kev at St Dominic Parish Church & Pentillie Castle

wedding photography at pentillie castleEvery now and again we photograph a wedding that has to be described as epic!  Carina & Kev’s fabulous summer day at Pentillie Castle was amazing from start to finish. Carina brought her beloved vintage VW Beetle and Camper as props for the day and was decorating them when we arrived. I must confess to being jealous here as I’ve always really want a classic VW! The marquee looked fantastic and Carina’s summery colour scheme of bright sunflowers and berry shades with lace on the chiavari chairs looked so pretty. The country theme continued with the table decorations of tiny green wellies and feathers, with each table being named after a gunmaker. (more…)
