Debbie & Tom's Intimate Summery Elopement at Lowerbarns in Cornwall

I was meaning to post this beautiful summery elopement since ages! My workload didn't allow me to update my blog with all the stunning weddings I shot this season, but I finally can make a start with the posting.

Debbie and Tom eloped to Cornwall late august on a beautiful sunny late summer's day at lower barns boutique bed and breakfast. They only brought their parents, their little daughter and beautiful greyhound with them to celebrate their special day in an intimate circle. It couldn't have been a more summery day, so we decided to make the most out of it and ventured down the beach for some couple portraits. Unfortunately the tide was so high that there wasn't much beach left and the few square meters of sand were filled with tourists, so not the ideal scenario for a photoshoot. I knew how much Debbie and Tom wanted some coastal photos though, so we improvised. It was a bit of a walk up the cliff path to get to the field overlooking the beach and we had to avoid some sheep poo, but it was worth it! 

And to make the day even better, their daughter picked me a little wild flower bouquet to take home with me! What a sweet, personal day to capture, one I will definitely always remember..

Talking about flowers, the wedding flowers provided by the talented Marie Owen from This Rugged Coast were absolutely beautiful!! One of my favourites this year..

Patience & Danny's elopement at The Scarlet, Cornwall

Danny and Patience are from Norfolk and spend a lot of their holidays in Cornwall. They love Mawganporth beach and got engaged here. So it was all natural to plan their wedding near this beautiful north cornish coast. They decided to have a small intimate wedding at The Scarlet with just 10 of their closest friends and family. The day was blessed with sunshine and high temperatures for late april, it couldn't have been better.. Here is a small selection of my favourite photos from the day. And wait till you see the DIY cake, cuteness alert!

Laura & Jame's elopement at Lower Barns in Cornwall

Laura and James chose to celebrate their special day away from all the hustle with a runaway wedding at Lower Barns in Cornwall. This luxury boutique retreat, a B&B with highly unique colourful south american style is all about romance. Nestled in a hidden corner of South Cornwall, close to the sea and in walking distance of the Lost Gardens of Heligan and the SW coast path. The owners are more than helpful and do everything to make you feel welcome at their unique venue.

Laura and James told their parents and friends that they would have a 3 day holiday in Cornwall and secretly got married!  I was so stoked when they asked me if I could photograph their special and intimate day. Elopements are very personal and intense, even more than weddings, as you spend a few hours just with the couple on their special day, so it's important everyone feels at ease. We couldn't have had a more relaxed approach to it: Laura and James were so easy going and relaxed, it felt like I'm just photographing friends. And with all the lovely backdrops at Lower Barns, it was not all that hard to get some stunning shots. We also ventured for a wander in Heligan Gardens for some extra shots. Here are just a few of my favourites..
