Gloucestershire Wedding Photographer - Dormy House Hotel

James and Sarah had a charming Cotswold wedding in the little village of Condicote, then off to Broadway for a reception at the Dormy House Hotel.



Condicote church perfectly fits the quintessential Costwold wedding.  The black clouds pretty much sum up our British summer!





Quick check you have the rings!









Finally a church with some great light as the bride walked in.  





The first lesson in photography is to have you camera turned on, the next is to take the lens cap off......this made me smile.



More photography lessons took place during the signing of the register.










As James & Sarah left the church they drove past a bunch of back-packers.  What made this a 'moment' was the fact they all stopped and clapped....fantastic.





As we arrived at Dormy House Hotel it absolutely chucked it down with rain.  This lasted the whole duration of the drinks reception.....but as with every grey cloud there was a silver lining - check out the sunset at the end of the day! :-)









There we a few touching moments during the speeches....and it wasn't just James that had a tear.









Best man speeches where you get guests involved are definitely good fun.





Yay, after dinner the sun came out for some beautiful evening light.









Did I mention a killer sunset?  Perfect for a couple portrait and what better way to end the wedding day.



Hop on over to my FB page to see more photos from their wedding.

I am the 'Master of covert operations' at Delbury Hall

This made me smile soooo much.  I do love it when clients write me emails upon their return from honeymoon....

Dear Matt

You are a master of covert operations - I had no idea half the time that you were there taking all these brilliant photographs!  The photos are incredible and we love them.  I have, of course, a big smile on my face when I look at them but a tear in my eye too - such a perfect record of the most wonderful day.  

You have been great to work with and so responsive.  We really appreciate receiving the photographs and album proofs so quickly.  The whole family were glued to your blog waiting for the first glimpse of the pictures!

Best wishes
Marisa & Adam - Delbury Hall



The little Davis' - Kids portraits

I took Daisy & Barney for a walk on Leckhampton Hill a couple of warm weekends ago.  It was time for a few nice portraits of my kids as they grow up so fast.

 Looking at these photos of them in shorts now, does make me wonder why I'm sitting here in jeans & a long sleeve shirt?






Puddles - every little boy like puddles right?



Barney also likes running.  He soon learnt though, running on a rough surface then falling over isn't so kind on your knees :-(



Stone throwing...a popular past time for Barney.



Daisy has more interest in making 'Daisy' chains.  Here Barney was being super cute and offered to pick her some flower too.







"Who'd like some sweets I've brought with me?"

Gloucestershire Wedding Photographer - Sunset wedding photo

Occasionally my interest in sunsets and weddings combine - eh voila!  I give you a wedding portrait taken with a fatnastic sunset.  Sometimes rain during the drinks reception is a blessing in disguise.



More to follow shortly....keep your eyes pealed!
