O my, where to even begin with how gorgeous Francesca & Tom’s country barn wedding was this weekend! Clock Barn in Hampshire is a barn I never tire of photographing…and good job too as I seem to be there every weekend at the moment! It has everything you could ever want for a country wedding – a big beautiful barn, gorgeous gardens and food that’s just out of this world.
Francesca & Tom hired an absolute dream team of suppliers so I was really excited to work with Eden Blooms again to see what they would come up with, and as usual they didn’t disappoint! Francesca’s bouquet was a mix of pinks and foliage, lightly hand-tied to give it the ‘I just picked these from the garden this morning’ look. It was also wonderful to see my friends from Vinnie’s Vehicles again as they brought Francesca and her bridesmaids and parents to the barn in style in their vintage VW camper van. Although it was a little on the windy side, guests enjoyed an afternoon of canapes and fizz in the gardens before moving inside for an evening or music and dancing.
An absolutely gorgeous day from start to finish, thank you so much for having Emma and I along! Congratulations lovelies, you totally smashed it!

Finally, the sun is here! After what feels like the longest winter ever, the sun wonderfully showed up yesterday for Victoria & Dustin’s wedding at the glorious Burley Manor in The New Forest. Victoria & Dustin held their wedding ceremony in the beautiful barn, with it’s beamed ceiling and pretty garden, just off the main Manor House. The wedding party all wore gorgeous outfits with coordinated burgundy touches, which all tied together perfectly with the flowers.
I know they were really hoping for a fun and relaxed day with their closest friends and family, and that’s exactly what they got. The lovely weather meant everyone spent the evening sat outside chatting as the sun went down, and we even got to sneak away for some couples shots in the New Forest.
What a perfect day, thank you so much for having me along guys!

I’m so happy to show you a snapshot of this GORGEOUS wedding of Alison & Matt’s at Gate Street Barn in Guildford. I won’t mention the fact that it rained solidly all day, and I mean allllll day, because I doubt anyone else really noticed, the day was so lovely and heartfelt. Gate Street Barn has recently been extended with big glass extra rooms, which flooded the areas with light and made my job much easier (thank you very much GSB!)
The wedding party were brill enough to brave the outdoors with me and posed for photos under brollies and the garden had some sheltered parts which made for some lovely couples’ photos. The evening was topped off with sparklers in the back garden before guests were treated to a ceilidh which, as usual, was hilarious. Cracking wedding guys, thank you so much for having Dan & I along!

Oct 15, 2018 | Ashley Wood Farm, September 2018
This September I was so delighted to be back at my favourite wedding venue – Ashley Wood Farm in Salisbury. There’s something just so beautiful about the sandstone barn and duck egg blue doors; I’d shoot here every week if I could! So I was over the moon when Laura & Will booked me for their wedding which took place this late summer.
Laura & Will got married at their local church before exiting to a sea of confetti and jumping into their navy blue vintage car. As they only live a stones throw away from Ashley Wood Farm and regularly walk their dog near by, they knew of some gorgeous little hidden beauty spots around the grounds, so although I’ve been lucky enough to shoot many a wedding there over the years, they introduced me to some lovely new places! They ended the night with a fantastic ceilidh dance which always has wedding guests in stitches, and what a better way to work off that wedding dinner?!
Such a wonderful day, thank you so much for choosing me to capture it! Congratulations to you both.

Venues I regularly shoot at can sometimes feel a little bit like my babies, so I know you’re not supposed to have favourites…but I kinda do a little bit with Ashley Wood Farm! This venue is O so flippin’ gorgeous, with it’s duck egg blue barn doors and sand coloured walls, plus I LOVE the fact you can opt to get married outside in the garden if you choose to. Not only that but it has the loveliest little cottage on site to get ready in in the morning and to stay in the night of the wedding… so I may even be so daring to say it’s pretty much PERFECT.
So when Emily & Jim asked me to be the photographer for their September wedding at Ashley Wood Farm, you can imagine I was delighted! Everything about their wedding was absolutely-knock your socks off-gorgeous, and the barn was styled impeccably. All the tables were given brightly coloured flowers in cute jars, with gold and hessian touches and multi-coloured ribbons hanging from the ceiling. They even had botanical information cards up-cycled as bunting, O my!
After a week of threatened rain, we were lucky and Emily and Jim were able to wed outside in the garden exactly as they had wanted to. Afterwards, they were met with a shower of confetti instead of rain, before guests mingled, chatted and enjoyed the canapes.
Before the meal we wondered around the grounds capturing their couple shots, before the evening party kicked off with an awesome Ceilidh band which got almost everyone up on their feet.
I LOVED this wedding, thank you so much for having Dan and I along; some of these photos are his <3
