Cornwall Wedding Photographer at Knightor Winery // Gemma & Adam

What a beautiful summery wedding at Knightor Winery in Cornwall with Gemma and Adam! We had so much cloud coverage this summer but for Gemma and Adam’s wedding the sky opened up and gave us a vibe of a Tuscany wedding in Cornwall. So good!

And look at that sparkler exit, I haven’t captured those for a while.

I loved capturing this day, everything was just so relaxed and easy going. It was super tricky to select just a few moments for this blog as there are so many more i would love to show you!

Wedding Photographer Knightor Winery Cornwall // Michelle & Phil

What a wonderfully intimate wedding at Knightor Winery in Cornwall. Phil and Michelle said I do in Charlestown and we headed down to the harbour afterwards for photos. We got so lucky to find Charlestown quiet in the middle of summer, but I guess that’s the advantage of a mid week wedding!

The rest of the afternoon was mostly spent hanging out in Knightor’s Courtyard sipping wine and listening to Josh Curnow tunes. A truly chilled family affair!

Here are a few of my favourites.

If you plan a small wedding in Cornwall, I still have a few limited spaces left next year, so please email me to chat about your day.

Wedding Photography at Knightor Winery, St Austell, Cornwall // Louise & Tim

Louise and Tim tied the knot late October at the fabulous Knightor Winery in St Austell. One of my favourite and most visited venues here in Cornwall as it’s a great place for a relaxed vibe wedding all year round. Photo opportunities are plenty with a woodland drive, an orchard, plenty of rustic stone wall corners, a wooden arbour …and if you fancy some beach photos, it is a short drive away from a couple of stunning Cornish South Coast beaches.

I met Louise and her bride squat in the chalet for their bridal prep photos. Nice to work with Hannah Symons for makeup and Melody Rose for hair again. They are always great company and are super talented. And how good are the Dr Martens boots!

The guys were getting ready in the main house. They had some problems with the handkerchiefs, how to fold them and put them in their pockets, no-one had a glue! Not even I and I watched it so many times. It’s interesting how your mind works, I often get asked how to tie a tie, but I just observe the actual reactions and clueless faces etc. instead of memorising the ‘how’… So keeping it short, I was clueless too! Thankfully Louise’s dad came to help…

The ceremony was held in the main barn which looked stunning with beautiful autumn coloured flowers created by ‘Blossom and Kelp’ and the fairy lights added a festive atmosphere. Oh and Roger Miners on the piano.

Gladly it stopped drizzling and the weather brightened up for some photos outside straight after the ceremony before everyone headed back in for their wedding b breakfast and speeches. The speeches were super emotional, a lot of laughter but also some tears. Still one of my favourite parts of the day to capture!

It didn’t take long to fill the dance floor with this great bunch of people, so much fun and great music by the ‘Busketeers’…

Louise and Tim, what a fab day to be a part of. It was hard to choose less than 100 images for your preview, I hope you like it as much as I do!

Cornwall Elopement Photographer at Knightor Winery // Sam & Howard

Sam and Howard tied the knot on a sunny day start of August at Knightor Winery. They only brought 6 guests along with them for an intimate and relaxed day in Cornwall. I love capturing days like this, they are so personal and even if I just have just spend 4 hours with lovely pair I felt I was a little part of it. Great to work alongside talented and super nice Sean Hodge Wedding Films. Always a pleasure to work as a team.

So here you go, not much more to say, just a gorgeous sunny day at Knightor Winery, one of my most favourite places to shoot elopements and weddings here in Cornwall…

Wedding Photographer Knightor Winery Cornwall // Ed & Lois

Wow, I couldn't have imagined a better start into the 2023 wedding season than this stunning Easter Weekend Wedding with Ed and Lois at Knightor Winery in Cornwall!

When Ed asked me a year ago to be his wedding photographer I was slightly flattered when I found out that he has his own film company ‘We are Wild Studio’. It’s always satisfying to work with someone who understands photography…

Ed and Lois’ wedding day couldn’t have been more perfect. The weather was great, so they had their drinks reception and wine tasting outside by the oak arbour which I thought was a great touch and never has been done before at Knightor.

The speeches were epic and after a second set of photos with the lovely pair, a sparkler exit announced the evening entertainment and a beautiful first dance indoors and outdoors…

I love shooting weddings at Knightor Winery, there are so many photo opportunities and it always has this special relaxed vibe. So if you’re planning to get married there and are looking for a wedding photographer please contact me for availability. It’s one of my favourite venues here in Cornwall.

But fr now, enjoy a small preview from Ed & Lois’ cracker of a day!

Knightor Winery Wedding Photography // Michelle & Sam

Michelle and Sam were married late July at Knightor Winery in Cornwall. They had chosen Knightor Winery for it’s rustic and relaxed vibe which suited the kind of wedding they were planning for. The outdoors plays a huge part in Michelle and Sam’s life, they met working as guides in an outdoor centre. So I was so pleased for them when their special day turned out super sunny and they could have their ceremony outside under the beautiful oak arbor. I loved the little flower vase Michelle put up on the signing table in memory of her grandma who so sadly is no longer with us. I love special details like this and always make sure they are captured. Another one which caught my eye was the ‘hiking boots flower vases’ which reflects their love for the outdoors, the two were heading straight to the Lake District for their honeymoon.

After the ceremony we ventured to the nearby South Cornwall Coast in a vintage VW Campervan. A beautiful scenic 10-15 minute drive and they took me along for the ride. ‘Honey’ she is called and has been lovingly restored by the owners of ‘Honeybugs’ one of Cornwall’s finest Vintage Campervan hire companies. The trip to the coast was well worth it as we created some stunning shots which are a nice addition to the woodland portraits we took at Knightor.

When we returned to Knightor everyone was enjoying themselves in Knightor’s cosy courtyard playing table tennis and lawn games or just chilling in the sun.

Michelle and Sam weren’t overly keen on a first dance, but some of their guests did the job for them, especially the flower girls. The Smores Bar was also a favourite of young and old, dancing makes hungry!

What a beautiful relaxed day at Knightor. It was an honour to have played a part in it and I made a small collection of my favourites from the day.

Autumn Wedding Photography at Knightor Winery in Cornwall // Viki & Martin

I couldn’t imagine a more picture perfect autumn wedding than Viki and Martin’s beautiful day at Knightor Winery in the heart of Cornwall. How gorgeous is their autumnal decoration with pumpkins, cones, dreamcatchers, rusty orange and earthy greens! And it goes so well with this rustic barn venue.

They were blessed with a sunny and mild October day and could have their ceremony outdoors, which was an important element of their wedding day being quite outdoorsy oriented people. Their two dogs were well looked after by Sarah from ‘wedding day dog nanny’, she brought a bag full of treats and had two new friends within 5 minutes of her arrival. Whilst Ione did her magic with hair and makeup for the girls. She really is the best for a natural bohemian look!

After the ceremony I went for a walk through Knightor’s grounds for the couple portraits. I think autumn is my favourite season there!

This time of year it goes dark quite soon, so we could include the sparkler exit just before the evening entertainment which I think is a way better option than dragging everyone from the dancefloor to go outside at a later stage. Let the people dance once they’re enjoying themselves!

Here is a small selection of my favourites, it was a really hard choice as there were so many beautiful moments to choose from…

Cornwall Wedding Photographer at Knightor Winery // Lauren & Joe

Lauren and Joe tied the knot at Knightor Winery early October. I met the bridal party late morning for the getting ready shots in the old manor house. Lauren’s mum and dad told me they had a surprise for Lauren: her dad had a new tattoo on his arm just for his daughter’s special day. Lauren didn’t have an idea and it was a huge surprise, so special!

And Lauren’s little daughter Avda couldn’t hold back her tears when she saw her mum in her wedding dress the very first time…her words: ’ you loo so beautiful, mummy! ‘ Awwwwwww!

Such an emotional morning full of excitement and joy.

The ceremony was held in the barn and straight after we ventured out in the autumnal grounds for some photos. I love this time of year, the autumnal colours and light, it’s just so great for photos!

The party was in full swing when I left… such a good day to be a part of!

Sorry it took so long for the preview, I’m finally

Knightor Winery Cornwall Wedding Photographer // Cerys & Jordan

Cerys and Jordan had a wonderful day at Knightor Winery this August. Blessed with a warm mid summer day they could have an outdoor ceremony, al fresco dining in the courtyard, a Pinata followed by some great tunes and fire pits for roasting these ever so loved marshmallows. A perfect summer wedding.

How amazing is their dog Simba (hope I got the name right!), such a character, I love him. And the doughnut wedding cake, wait until you see the cake details on the topping, so cool!

Enough said, I need to get back to editing a huge stack of weddings! Here is your long awaited preview, Cerys and Jordan, sorry it took so long…
