Kirsty and Colin were married at The Alverton in Truro Cornwall mid December. I photographed their friend’s wedding a couple of years back here in Cornwall and just recently met them for an engagement session on Crantock beach to get a bit of practise in for the couple portraits before the big day.
Kirsty fell in love with The Alverton because she always dreamt to get married in a castle, so here you go, pretty close! A small and intimate wedding with all the trimmings. It really felt like ‘a big day’…and so festive just before Christmas, it really got me tuned into the festive vibe…
KIRSTY & COLIN
WEDDING AT THE ALVERTON TRURO
Kirsty was wearing her mum’s wedding dress and what a beauty! It fitted her perfectly and what a lovely personal touch. Her mum really seemed to know what she was doing lacing it up, having been there before, she is a wedding dress lace up pro…
Colin’s mother had to leave after the ceremony for her cancer treatment, so I made sure we get some lovely family shots beforehand. Situations like this really touch my heart having lost my mum to this terrible disease this year.
Kirsty and Colin, you showed us yet again that you don’t need 100 plus guests to have an extra special day, just the right people, a good location and a touch of sparkle…
“Alexa has a great eye for those perfect moments and results in stunning memories captured. She blended into the background to be able to take natural photos which we will treasure for ever. Her passion clearly shows and her commitment even more so, following a long day, Alexa wrapped things up only to return a while later asking my husband and I to pop outside to get one last silhouette shot in the entrance of the venue which was softly lit from the grounds. This ended up being one of our favourite images. Alexa came highly recommended to us and we were not disappointed and you will not be either! It’s clear to see this photographer loves her work and takes great pride in what she does.”
