Recently I photographed Lizzie and Gareth (who get married in less than a couple of weeks now!!), they came to Cirencester and we went for a walk around Cirencester Park and took some photos (with kind permission from the Bathurst Estate) here are a few of the results:
I loved working with you and on these Gareth and Lizzie, see you soon!

Recently I had the pleasure of photographing Josie and Harry's wedding at Kingscote Barn in Gloucestershire. This is a truely stunning location which feels like it's in the middle of no where, surrounded by rolling hills. We were fairly lucky with the weather as the lead up to the day hadn't been good, although the sun didn't break out once the ceremony approached it didn't rain so we did get to make use of the gorgeous landscapes. Here is the full blog post of their wedding:
The whole wedding was to take place at the Barn so I got to take some of the barn before everyone arrived with a few of their details
Meanwhile, Josie was getting ready at a cottage in the grounds of the Barn so I went down before people arrived to photograph a few of Josie getting into her dress
Gorgeous!!!
Meanwhile the guests were arriving in possibly the coolest bus ever!
Josie arriving with her dad and bridesmaids
Moments before Josie went into the ceremony room and then being walked down the aisle by her dad
Harry waiting for Josie, doesn't look even slightly nervous
I absolutely LOVE this photo, the look on Josie's face is priceless!
Both of the ring exchanges, where no one made any mistakes... :) I actually love it when someone makes a slight slip with their words, it really lightens the atmosphere and reminds you that you're with your friends.
The first kiss
The moment on the left was while the couple were waiting to sign the register, Josie has such an expressive face it's awesome. Then the moment before they walked up the aisle.
We took a walk up onto the Barn's very long driveway which has cornfields on either side which was the perfect place to take some photos
There were giant games to keep the guests entertained while Josie and Harry were away which is such a good idea
The unique table plan, each table was named after a place that they have lived
A few details from inside the barn before they ate, they had a cake to cut, however instead of a big cake to feed everyone they had butter buns from Whiddetts, a bakery in Cirencester that Josie used to work, YUM! 
Then onto the Speeches
Harry had three best men! That means three times the fear of what they might say :)
Harry and Josie just got back from a wonderful week in Italy. I hope you like what you see guys, see you soon!
Wow the time is flying, it's been almost 2 weeks since Ruth and Chris got married at Chedworth Church. The full post is finally here! I loved this wedding for many reasons, one of the main ones being the setting. I love Cheltenham and specifically the hills surrounding it of which their reception (at Ruth's parents lovely home) over looked. I used to travel through those hills daily when I studied in Cheltenham so feel quite happy there, it's just so lovely. It was a beautiful day, they were truely blessed. On with the photos:
As usual one of the first things I did when I got to Ruth's was take some of the dress and details, it was gorgeous outside and there was the perfect place to hang the dress. I particularly like the bottom two with the light coming through the top layer of the dress
Ruth looking beautiful before the dress and final touches and Ruby, Ruth's niece, watching the make up being done.
The lovely hairdresser and make up artist fussing over Ruth.
Ruth's sister and the make up artist helped Ruth into her dress and did up those many buttons!
The final touches
I then met Chris with his Ushers at the pub at Chedworth which is about a one minute walk from the Church
They then made this short walk, in style
Only stopping for adjustments
Flowers and the rings, need I say more
People arriving at the Church, this is a real gem of a Church, it's lovely and bright inside
The bridesmaids then arrived, Ruth's sister, best friend and little Ruby
Chris and Ruth arriving (although not at the same time)
Inside the lovely Church
If this isn't the cutest thing ever, I don't know what is!
Exchanging their rings
Yay for the first kiss!! I love the second photo of Chris and Ruth walking up the aisle, they started walking up pretty fast and everyone thought, hold on a second!! So they stopped :)
Confetti!! and lots of it
Awesome Bentley!
Then back to Ruth's parents home for drinks
With that wonderful view
We then went off into the garden to take some photos
I think the one on the right is one of my favourites
Some of the ushers and the best man messing around with Chris, they were all lovely guys who I felt would have all helped me if I needed it, but special thanks to Matt who gathered the troops!
Then everyone moved down to the marquee, this is just stunning
Inside and out
The second photo on the right here is of both Chris and Ruth's parents and grandparents etc wedding photos with a blank one in the middle waiting for their own photo, I thought this was a lovely touch and it's pretty cool knowing that's it's a photo that I have taken that will be in there.
They sat down for their meal and their sheep looked on as they ate.... lamb
Great speeches!
The night then turned colder and a lot darker, for anyone that knows, that marquee photo was taken at ISO 6400, 1/50 at f2.8, also known as, very dark!
All that's left is that first dance
I know that you're having a wonderful honeymoon Chris and Ruth, I'm looking forward to you seeing all of your photos, see you soon.
