Hampshire & Dorset wedding photographer

Wedding Photographer in Dorset & Hampshire

It’s that wonderful time of year again; a chance to slow down, look back, and feel immensely grateful for the people and moments that have shaped the past 12 months. 2025 has been another year full of happiness, connection, and the kind of memories that remind me daily why I feel so lucky to do this job. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, to every couple, family and friend who trusted me to document such meaningful moments of their lives. Guys, I never take that lightly.

This year was packed with hilarious speeches, packed dance floors, singing waiters, brilliant weather (honestly, it barely rained!) many a dog pal and so many moments of quiet connection in between. I met an incredible mix of people – always kind, creative, funny, emotional… of course wildly in love – and every wedding brought its own magic. From intimate ceremonies to big, joy-filled celebrations, it’s been an absolute privilege to witness and capture so many stories.

In 2025 I photographed 40+ weddings once again, alongside stepping in as an associate photographer for a few lovely friends who, for medical reasons, were unable to shoot their own weddings. Being able to support them in that way felt really special, and it reminded me how strong and supportive the wedding community around me is and how lucky I am to be part of it. I’m endlessly thankful for the friendships that continue to grow with both couples and fellow suppliers; this industry really is built on collaboration and trust.

As ever, so much love goes to the venues that feel like second (and third) homes. My ongoing relationship with Clock Barn continues to mean the world to me. Being recommended there for the past ten years is something I’m incredibly proud of, and I’ll never stop loving that place and the wonderful team behind it. I hope to move in one day haha. I also continue to work closely with, and absolutely adore, Rhinefield House, which never fails to feel like home every single time I walk through the door. And this year brought some very exciting news: being added to the recommended supplier list at Upwaltham Barns which is such a beautiful venue, and I’m so thrilled to be working more closely with them going forward. Yessss please to more weddings at this fabulous venue!

Below I’ve chosen a favourite image from each wedding, plus a few extra moments that made me smile (can you spot you?!) Thank you for continuing to book me, recommend me and support me. Honestly, it means the world. This job is still my very favourite thing, and I feel unbelievably lucky to call this my work.

Here’s to more weddings, more love stories, and another year of doing what I love with the best people around. Roll on 2026!!!

With love always,
Mia xx

Hampshire wedding at Clock Barn

Ahhh could Sophie & Ben nailed their Clock Barn wedding any more?! What an absolutely perfect summer wedding from start to finish.

Clock Barn is always one of my favourite venues – with it’s gorgeous gardens, incredible food and wonderfully helpful staff…and this day was no exception! Sophie & Ben are just the most lovely bundles of joy to be around, and I can honestly say my cheeks ached from smiling after I left!

For a start we had the most perfect summer weather – that kind of hot but not too hot hot, which everyone getting married in July hopes for. The always manicured gardens were absolutely bursting with colour, which offset Sophie soft, peaches and light pinks bouquets perfectly. The girls got ready in the prep room, before excitedly venturing over to the main barn where they both said their vows. The afternoon seemed to go by in a flash, with everyone mingling and chatting on the lawn, enjoying their canapes in the sunshine. We did our usual lap of the grounds, taking some gorgeous couple shots and taking in the beautiful scenery.

When dinner was ready, everyone went inside for a wonderful three course meal and some very moving and heartfelt speeches. Of course a summer wedding wouldn’t be a summer wedding without some evening sunset couple shots, and the golden hour light didn’t disappoint! An absolute belter of a day, well done team! What a pleasure.
