Wedding Photographer Falmouth Cornwall, Trefusis Estate // Poppy & Alex

Poppy and Alex didn’t let the Cornish Mizzle spoil their day. A beautiful marquee wedding at Trefusis Estate near Falmouth overlooking the Fal Estuary.

Poppy and Alex were married in Falmouth at King Charles Church. It’s right in the middle of the high street and with the wedding being in the middle of busy summer season they had quite a few spectators!

The reception was held at the beautiful Trefusis Estate in a stunning vintage style marquee overlooking the Fal Estuary. Hazel Parsons managed everything and made sure all was running smoothly. It was great working with her again, it’s been a while…

Unfortunately it was a pretty overcast day with showers, but it didn’t spoil the atmosphere and spirit of the day. Nevertheless the Cornish mizzle, it was a wonderful day to capture and I’m pleased to show you how even a rainy day can be the best day ever!

Here is a selection of my favourites

Devon Wedding Photography for a beautiful Dartmoor Marquee Wedding // Alice & Tim

Alice and Tim’s epic marquee wedding in Dartmoor Devon. An eventful day including a private piece of Dartmoor, a special wedding car, an amazing first dance performance, sparklers and a firework over Dartmoor hills to finish it all off.

I have an absolute gem to share with you today! Alice and Tim’s marquee wedding in Dartmoor, Devon was probably the most exhausting and intense day I have photographed this year so far, but so worth it! Al, my second shooter, and I had fun capturing this eventful day. I still don’t know how Alice and Tim managed to organise such an epic day, being both doctors with a busy lifestyle to say the least.

I love trips to Dartmoor with my dogs and quite often venture there for some hiking or mountain biking when have a rare weekend off. So when Alice and Tim asked me to photograph their wedding at Alice’s family private house there, I was really excited! Little did I know though, when I arrived at the House with it’s beautiful grounds, it blew my mind. It is a picturesque piece of Dartmoor on private land including an ancient wood, a stone circle and distant views to some of the better known parts of Dartmoor! What a place, so many photo opportunities. I was busting with ideas! The day was action packed though and we didn’t have too much time for couple portraits, so we had to work fast and just explore a few of the many options.

Al was covering the guys getting ready at a different location whilst I met the bridal party at the house. A relaxed morning with the ladies including some early tears…when Alice unwrapped her present from Tim, a pair of beautiful earrings from her favourite jewellers and the first look moment with dad I always love to capture if time allows…so much emotion!

The ceremony was at a church about 10 minute drive away. The chosen transport was Tim’s dad vintage Land Rover, for everyone who knows me, I have a weak spot for vintage style wedding cars out of the ordinary. So yes, I got a bit excited when they arrived in the rustic Land Rover!

Back at the house we only had a short session for couple portraits before the wedding breakfast was served in the marquee, so we were hoping to get another session in for sunset. We got lucky, the early evening shots turned out to be my favourites as the top field including the stone circle was flooded in golden hour light.

‘Joey The Lips’ were amazing and soon filled the dance floor after Alice and Tim’s impressive first dance performance. And after Alice’s mum surprise song we headed out for a sparkler exit and fireworks, the highlight of the evening and a great surprise for the guests. The party was long not finished, it only just started… the whole marquee was rocking, but for Al and I it was time to head back after nearly 14 hours of coverage and aching feet.

Alice and Tim, it was an honour to capture your magical day. It took me hours to select just a few of my favourite moments, I could have posted so much more, but I already exceeded the average number of photos for my blog posts, so here you go, enjoy…

Festival Tipi Wedding in Cornwall // Catherin & Marcus

Catherin and Marcus’ festival style tipi wedding in Cornwall. A day full of laughter, great entertainment, good music, general banter and good vibes…

Let’s just get one thing straight here, it does not matter what I write about this day, I simply will not do justice to how magnificently brilliant Catherin and Marcus’ wedding was…A true gem to share with you today, Catherin and Marcus’ festival style tipi wedding in Cornwall…

So I met Catherin and Marcus at his parent’s beautiful house in Trewoon to have a chat abut their big day. Straight away I thought what an amazingly wonderful pair! They have been together since 2006, so a true romance which was meant to be… theur true bond could be felt immediately. We had a walk around the beautiful grounds and a chat about their day, which was planned to be a chilled day of celebrations with friends and family, super informal, but mixed with great banter, dancing and entertainment, a festival style wedding in a tipi which sounded right up my street!!!

And it was, in fact it was more than that, it far exceeded the high hopes I already had when I drove to Trewoon on the morning of the wedding. The sun was out, the guys already opened their first beers, the gils had a right laugh getting ready…the ceremony was held in St Mewan Church just down the road. And it wasn’t just a wedding, it was also the christening of Freddie, Catherin and Marcus’ adorable son.

The reception was epic! Sunshine, laughter, lots of alcohol, fire pits, an old Jaguar, great food, great people, great music and good vibes. Oh and did I mention the entertainment would be by Marcus himself who happens to be a super talented singer/ songwriter…I surely couldn’t help myself singing along amongst the dancing crowd. So good! I’m sure I missed something…if I am, it’s all documented in the preview below, just go see…

John & Niamh // Roscarrock Farm Wedding Photography Cornwall

Niamh and John’s Outdoor wedding with stunning sea views at Roscarrock Farm in Cornwall

I’m stoked to have had the pleasure to photograph John and Niamh’s wedding at Roscarrock farm, it has been a year since I worked at this stunning venue. Rosarrock is one of the oldest settled farms in Cornwall and is listed in the Domesday book, since these times it has only been farmed by 4 families dating back to the 14th century. It is available for exclusive hire with beautiful walled gardens and sea views, nestled in a quiet valley near Port Isaac in Cornwall.

I photographed Niamh’s brothers wedding at The Eden Project a few years back. He decided to surprise his sister with a family photoshoot for Christmas. After a failed attempt on a cold winter’s day with strong northerly winds back in February we re-scheduled the shoot and headed out to Crantock beach in early spring. I love the results. And you can see them here. At first meeting John asked me if I could shoot their wedding and I was so pleased I still had the date free as I knew this one would be a stunner!

The ceremony was held outdoors with distant sea views as a backdrop and a handcrafted wooden arch decorated with greens and seashells as a centrepiece. Niamh’s friend has done an awesome job decorating the rest of the venue with DIY materials. Homemade bunting mixed with seashells, hanging planters and I think they collected every single vintage glassware in Cornwall for the table’s centrepieces! There was a gorgeous ‘garden theme’ running through their decorations and the place looked stunning full of personal touches.

Ben from Woodfired Canteen cooked some delicious food on his BBQs and when I heard he will be the caterer for the day, it was just the tip of the iceberg. I love his food!!!

They were blessed with sunny weather and the Irish really know how to throw a party. As soon as the band started playing the dance floor was filled with madness.

Niamh and John, thanks for having me photograph your gorgeous wedding. What a corker of a day!

Here is your preview, I hope you enjoy it.

Wedding Photography Morwenstow, North Cornwall // Caroline & Ben

Caroline & Ben’s wedding in Morwenstow, Cornwall featuring a mini, a lovely decorated marquee at Caroline’s Grandma’s farm, a DIY driftwood bar with draught beer and cider and a personalised version of “Sweet Caroline’ performed by Ben’s family…a great day…

THE CEREMONY

Caroline and Ben tied the knot in the Church of St Morwenna and St John the Baptist in Morwenstow on the North Cornwall Coast. I was booked from the ceremony onwards and unfortunately missed one of my favourite times of the day, the bridal getting ready stage.

So I arrived at the church just after midday to capture the guests arriving for the ceremony. I’m always nervous with church weddings as some vicars seem to do anything to prevent you to take good photos in their church. I had one telling me and some videographers that we would only be allowed to shoot from the back of the church otherwise he will throw us out. I mean, what’s that for a welcome and how are you supposed to photograph the ceremony just from the back?? Gladly, today it was a very warm welcome by this lovely chap and his friendly laid back collie dog, which slept peaceful throughout the whole ceremony in the front of the church!

After the ceremony we ventured down the nearby Duckpool beach for photos, it’s not far away from where Ben proposed. Ben and Caroline chose a mini for their transport, so we were all equipped for some great shots.

THE RECEPTION

The reception was at Caroline’s grandma’s farm in a beautifully decorated marquee set in a stunning landscaped garden. The Driftwood bar with draft beer and cider was handmade by Caroline’s sister’s husband, very impressive!

For me the highlight of the day was Ben’s family singing a personalised version of ‘Sweet Caroline’ by Neil Diamond, a rather great performance and even better surprise!

Caroline and Ben, you and your friends and family were fabulous and so welcoming, I absolutely enjoyed every minute of capturing your beautiful wedding day. Thanks for having me there and I hope you like this little preview… the rest of the images will be ready to be send you very soon..

Venue: Morwenna Church & Coast to Coast Marquee // Date: 02.09.18 // Flowers: Jennifer Candy // Makeup: Penny Pascoe MUA // Hair: Jeneration Hair Design //Cake: Exe-Cellent Cakes // Music: The Stereo Jack’s

Cornwall Wedding Photography at Roscarrock Farm // Mat & Kate

Kate & Mat’s Country House summer party wedding at Roscarrock Farm in Cornwall. With blue skies as far as the eye can see…

It was an absolute honour when Mat asked me to photograph his wedding. He is a talented photographer himself and I always admired his work. In recent years he started Hailer Media, a marketing consulting agency in the heart of Cornwall. Have a look, some great stuff there!

So what do you get if you cross a talented photographer with a gorgeous blonde teacher and their cutest little son with a cherry picked selection of the best suppliers in the cornwall wedding business plus one of the most stunning wedding venues Cornwall has to offer? You get Kate and Mat's picture prefect wedding at Roscarrock Farm near Port Isaac. A day filled with friends, laughter, good vibes and love.

Roscarrock is a farm with walled gardens overlooking the beautiful cornish north coast. A spectacular setting which has been used for TV and Film productions before. Roscarrock was Nampara in the original series of Poldark, Winston Graham was said to have written the books based on Roscarrock. It was my first time there and I love it! It feels feel like you are at a country house summer party.

To top it all off, the day was blessed with beautiful blue skies and sunshine. I was only booked for the ceremony and the afternoon and left just after the space hopper football game, but I wish I could have stayed on as it looked like there was an awesome party on the way! Well at least I got to taste some of Ben's (Woodfired Canteen) super delicious food on the way home...

Here is a little taster for you, Mat & Kate! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did shooting your your absolute corker of a day!

Venue: Roscarrock Farm // Date: 07.07.18 // Flowers: Bruallen //  Makeup: Fran Bennetts MUA// Hair: Lisa Vercoe // Marquee: Ashley Events // Dress: Amanda K Bridal // Food: Woodfired Canteen

Rachel & Wayne's sunny countryside wedding at Kilminorth Cottages

Rachel and Wayne’s sunny countryside wedding at Kilminorth Cottages near Looe in Cornwall..

Rachel and Wayne married on a beautiful warm and sunny spring day at Kilminorth Cottages near Looe in Cornwall. It was one of the venues on my bucket list and I was really excited for this day when I drove down this secluded green valley. It didn't disappoint: the stylish refurbished cornish cottages are tucked away in acres of Cornish woodland not far from the stunning harbour villages of Looe and Polperro. There were photo opportunities a plenty with woodland and fields and beautiful landscaped walk way to the marquee area.

Rachel and Wayne's dream was an outdoor ceremony and I'm pleased the weather played the part. Garden games were entertaining the guests and the children had fun with the giant trampoline and tree swing. A picture perfect day for a relaxed wedding in the cornish countryside. 

The alcohol was flowing fast and with some great funk and soul tunes by Jessica and the Rabbits the dance floor was soon filled with some funky moves..

Here is a small preview of the day..

Holly & Fred's North Cornwall Wedding with stunning sea views

Holly and Fred were married at St Materiana's Church on the North Cornwall Coast overlooking King Arthur's Castle and with stunning sea views.. 

Holly and Fred were married in St Materiana's church on the North Cornwall coast. The church is not just overlooking King Arthur's castle near Tintagel, it has magnificent views over the North Cornish coast from the coast path just 100 meters from the church. I went there to go for a walk with the dogs the evening before the wedding to look for some good spots for the couple portraits and to speak to the vicar at the rehearsal. To be honest, this day made me worried as the vicar told me I could only be in the back of the church and it's very dark in there! Never a good start, however on the day I could convince her to let me stand a bit closer to the front, still not ideal, but better..

The reception was held at Fentafriddle a few miles down the road another stunning location with fantastic sea views. The evening started with a great atmosphere and I think there was enough alcohol consumed by then to get the dance floor started early!

Here are a few of my favourites..

Venue: Tintagel and Fentafriddle // Date: 02.09.17 // Flowers: Flowers from Bruallen // Hair&MakeupMakeup by Ione // Dress: Lillian West // Music: Saffron String Quartett, Cornwall Parties

Devon Wedding Photography // Catherine & Laurence

Catherine and Lawrence celebrated in style in a Tipi style marquee right on Branscombe beach on the South Devon Coast..

Catherine and Laurence were married in a tiny church near her grandparents house in the small hamlet of Fishpond Dorset. Her grandparents used to be church wardens there and their house is just a couple of hundred meters up the road. After the ceremony everyone ventured to the house for some drinks to celebrate in their beautiful garden with views over the Dorset coast. We then ventured to the reception venue, a tipi style marquee right on Branscombe beach on the South Devon coast, ca 45 minute drive away. They told me it would be a Tip tent wedding by the beach, but I was breathtaking by the location when I arrived, it was literally on the beach! 

Catherine and Laurence had it all for their day, scorching weather, blue skies, a beautiful tipi provided by World Inspired Tents, tasty Paella made by the lovely crew from Hermanos Paella, a Cheese Van for snacks, a Ceilidh Band and a marshmallow roasting pit and much more..

Here are a few of my favourites from a scorcher of a day on a beautiful beach in Devon
