Wedding Photos Tuscany, Italy

It's fantastic as a wedding photographer to shoot at new venues.....and they don't come much better than Conti di San Bonifacio in Tuscany, Italy.  A balmy 28-30 degrees, on a hillside wine resort with olive groves for a little dappled shade, super :-)

Darren and Suzanne had the most perfect spring wedding.....relaxed to the point of almost being horizontal.

A full post of photos will follow shortly, but in the interim here's a selection in the slideshow.

You can also 'like' my Facebook Business page and see plenty more photos from the day.

Barnsley House - Cotswold Wedding Venue

Barnsley House, what a cracking wedding venue.  Not only is this the perfect Cotswold Wedding Venue, but on a warm spring day, with a lovely couple and incredible guests you simply can't get much better than Will & Kellys wedding.
It was a wedding with yet another international contingent, with Wills (aka Bill) family coming from America, and Kelly's being from South Africa.  It was only a small wedding (by some standards) with around 40 guests.  This made it an intimate affair and the day was very well planned, with the ceremony at 4pm, evening dinner around 6pm, followed by drinks outside at eight.  I'm sure more weddings should follow this theme, so if you're reading this and have a small wedding it's certainly worth considering.
So without further ado, get a coffee, sit down (as I've gone waaaaaay over board on the number of photos featured) and take a look at some photos from the wedding.




I've photographed a couple of weddings at Barnsley House before, but never have I covered an outdoor wedding ceremony......and what a day for it - prefect.



Wedding shoe detail photos.  Not every bride wants or even likes them........I however decided to take a couple of options on this occasion - so (a) or (b)?  You get a little more flavour of Barnsley House interior design in (b)........so for that reason it gets my vote!





Why do curlers amuse me??? I don't know, but for some reason they make for a fine photo IMO.


Williams sister was blowing kisses at her son after he woke up from his afternoon power nap!  








The boys were great fun to cover and with them only being 20 paces from the bridal suite it was super simple to stop by for a few pre wedding shots.






You may like this photo, you may not, but it has a sense of movement (as Will puts his jacket on) and I kinda liked it!





It's soooooooo tiring having your hair done huh!











Will and his sister



I'm seeing a green theme for bridesmaids again.  Must be the 4th or 5th wedding this year.  Works well in the garden setting too huh?


Dum dum de dum.  More a stroll across the garden  than a walk down the aisle.







For those wishing to know, it's not always possible to get a photo of the 'ring going on'.  Why.....welll too many hands, people and too much bad light usually make it impossible.  This time it worked a peach though.




Possibly one of my favourite photos from the wedding.
