Mount Pleasant Eco Park Wedding Photography // Festival Vibes with Sophie & Joe

Oh my gosh, Sophie and Joe’s wedding at Mount Pleasant Eco Park in Cornwall was fantastic! Such a great day to be a part of. Talking festival vibes, plenty of colours, the cutest wedding dog club, lots of laughter, tears of joy, great music and a super fun and welcoming bunch of people. I wish all weddings would be like this one, it’s got to be my dream day to capture!

Lusty Glaze Beach Wedding Photographer Cornwall // Rob & Holly

I’m s excited to show you the preview of Rob and Holly’s beautiful beach wedding at Lusty Glaze in Cornwall. They tied the knot here back in August with an outdoor ceremony on the beach. What a stunning day and definitely within my top 5 favourite weddings this year so far!

It’s always a bonus when you wake up on the morning of your wedding day and see the weather plays nice with a dry warm day, especially when you planned a wedding on the beach. Holly and Rob had the full package. They have rented the cottages on the beach and added a beach closure to have their own private beach for their wedding day. And what better location could you choose than Lusty Glaze, with it’s surrounding high cliffs it is one of the most picturesque little coves here in Cornwall. I always get excited when I shoot a wedding here as it’s usually relaxed beach vibes guaranteed which fits perfect to my style of photography. There are also so many beautiful spots for your couple portraits. And the guests can just enjoy themselves with a stroll on the beach or some beach games. For me, that’s a perfect wedding day!

Rob and Holly, Congratulations again! so many images to choose my favourites from, here is my selection of favourite moments from the day, I hope you like them as much as I do..

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…

Knightor Winery Wedding Cornwall // Jamie & Rachel

Rachel and Jamie tied the knot early August at Knightor Winery in Cornwall. I loved Rachel’s chosen colour theme wine red and yellow sunflowers, a perfect match for the rustic barn venue and great colour combination.

I’m super busy at the moment with back to back weddings to shoot, but Rachel and Jamie have been waiting for this preview way too long, so just a short write up.

The first coming to mind was the bridesmaid dress disaster! Oh my gosh, one of the bridesmaids who didn’t make it to the wedding due to Covid mixed up the dresses in the bags and they ended up with a dress which was a few sizes too small! Not just that, it was one hour before the ceremony when they had realised! So a double strategy was made up and some of the guys got send out to the nearest shops to find a suitable replacement whilst a couple of bridesmaids and Maddie the lovely multi talented Knightor Event Manager tried to alter the way too dress! Option two was the go ahead. Just in time before the ceremony it was altered with bits and pieces found around the venue. What a morning! It shows once again that not everything always goes to plan on your wedding day but if you stay positive and calm and go with the flow, things like that just make it ever more special…

I loved the pinard arch by Rachel’s mid wife friends just after the ceremony, a lovely personal touch. And we got so lucky with the weather, it started rainy and cleared up during the day so everyone could relax in the courtyard.

Rachel and Jamie also booked the wine tasting, which I highly recommend at Knightor, a great addition to your day and loved by all the guests!

So enough said, I have to get back to editing your lovely weddings…I let the photos do the talking…

Lusty Glaze Beach Wedding Photography // Susie & Sean

Susie and Sean booked me for a short 3-4 hour package for their small beach wedding back in August at Lusty Glaze. I met the bridal party in St Columb Minor for their getting ready images. It was lovely to meet all the girls before the big day started…

At Lusty we were blessed with a hot day, slightly overcast, but the beach was buzzing with people, well it was the middle of August and the busiest season ever in Cornwall! We only had ca 30 minutes for all the photos and it was challenging on a busy beach like this to say the least! Gladly we found a quiet corner for a few minutes t take some nice portraits of Susie and Sean. Did you know you can book the whole beach and have the cove closed to the public for your special day? I highly recommend this as it is so much more relaxing than looking at wind breakers etc all day…

So Susie and Sean, i hope you like your mini preview. Not long now for your final gallery to be ready!

Beautiful Cornwall Elopement Photography // Sana & Hussain

Sana and Hussain decided to have an elopement wedding when they realised it was impossible to have a larger wedding with all their family in the current circumstances. Their families live all over the world and travelling from one country to the next seems to be quite difficult with current Covid restrictions in place. They have chosen the stunning Tremenheere Sculptured Gardens in Cornwall to tie the knot.

Lovely Jane from Petite Weddings helped them with heir planning process. They stayed in the nearby Fallen Angel, I have yet to visit this gorgeous place! It was my first time photographing at Tremenheere and it took my breath away, it offers so many beautiful spots for photos! A tropical Cornish Gem overlooking St Michael’s Mount and feast for themes and senses…In fact I was so inspired by the tropical plants that I bought a couple for my garden on my way home!

Sana and Hussain are the most gorgeous, humble couple and they truly found each other, they are soulmates and the light shines bright around them. When they read their vows to each other it was not just Sana who had a tear in her eyes. I felt like I’m watching a romantic movie…

A beautiful day filled with love I felt honoured to play a part in.

Sana and Hussain, you two beauties, I love your elopement photos and I hope you do too.

Escape into a Cornish tropical paradise with this small preview…

Wedding Photography at The Green Cornwall // Phoebe & Chris

I can’t believe I finally get to post a preview of Chris & Phoebe’s epic wedding at The Green Cornwall!!

I want to take the opportunity to apologise to all my recent couples who wait for their galleries. This year has been two seasons in one for me and many other wedding suppliers. With shifting nearly twice as many weddings this season there I haven’t been abe to spend as much time on my desk and therefore the editing is delayed. When it comes to delivering your images I’m a perfectionist and can’t rush things and let the quality slip. After all you will hopefully treasure these photos for a lifetime so waiting a few weeks longer will be with it!

So a huge thanks to all my couples to be so patient and understanding. I’m dong my best to work my way through the images and I can’t help a little smile here or there reliving beautiful moments whilst I’m editing…

Phoebe and Chris got married on the … of July. What an epic day! We’re talking garden games, a magician, great music, a fantastic venue and a great bunch of people to add the right amount of good vibes and fun. Phoebe’s family is greek and believe me they know how to party, there were plenty of shots going around during the speeches. I spend my childhood and early teenage years in Greece during summer holidays as we had a house there and we were quite often invited to greek weddings and parties. Oh I remember the delicious food , Ouzos, the warm mediterranean sea and late summer evenings!

I’m always looking forward to Kaj Music playing as he seems to get the danceflloor going with no exception.

So here we go, enough said, I let the photos do the talking and need to get back to the editing…

Knightor Winery Wedding Photography Cornwall // Claire & Andy

Claire and Andy got marred on the 24th of July at Knightor Winery with ca 40 guests, a small relaxed summer wedding in Cornwall. They were blessed with a mild day and most f the wedding was spend outside in the beautiful courtyard of Knightor. Unfortunately some of their guests couldn’t attend because they tested positive with Covid including Andy’s brother who was holding his best man’s speech via Zoom. It was extremely touching seeing all the emotion in the room during that speech! You could just tell Andy would have loved to have his brother by his side on his special day…

The Wine tasting was loved by all the guests and is always a great addition to your wedding here at knight Winery. My personal favourite is the ‘Carpe Diem’ Rosé.

Laura Kelly’s live music created a vibrant evening atmosphere in the courtyard when I left and I’m sure they had a a brilliant night.

Here you go, Claire and Andy, a small preview for you to shorten the wait for your final images…

Trenderway farm Cornwall Wedding Photography // James & Rachel

What can I say! James and Rachel’s wedding at Trenderway Farm in Cornwall was ticking all the boxes of an epic wedding day…a beautiful location, a great bunch of people, a summer heatwave and happy summer vibes all around. It was definitely worth the wait, they were supposed to get married last year and had to postpone twice. I’m so pleased for them that they could finally say ‘I do’!

It was my first wedding at Trenderway and I immediately fell in love with this place. Tucked away in a beautiful sheltered valley on the South Cornwall Coast this is the kind of venue I love photographing weddings at and I hope I will get the opportunity to be back here very soon.

Everyone loves the sunshine but I guess this wedding was in my top 3 hottest days I ever photographed. After the ceremony we ventured to the gardens where under the shelter of some trees we listened to the first set of speeches by Jame’s dad and Rachel. I love a bride’s speech and when it’s that heart warming and emotional, even better!

The sun was high in the sky so we decided to just do a brief set of portraits and do the main photos later on in the evening sun.

In the evening ‘Memento London’ soon filled the dance floor Even though the temperature was still in the high twenties. Rachel and James truly were rocking their wedding with an epic first dance performance…

What a day! One of those I would have loved to stayed on and joined the party but unfortunately it was the week with 4 weddings and I made the sensible decision to drive home to recharge for he next wedding.

James and Rachel, words can’t describe how beautiful your very special day was. I enjoyed capturing it even though I felt broken the next day! I guess you agree it was well worth waiting for over a year.

I hope you enjoy your little preview…

Wedding Photographer Cosawes Barton Cornwall // Kim & Scott

It was a pleasure to photograph Kim & Scott’s heatwave wedding at Cosawes Barton recently. It’s been a while I worked at this stunning venue and I was excited to head back there!

They had a beautiful wedding ceremony in the outside arbour. I loved the back light there at the time of the day, it added some true magic to the images. The day continued in relaxed garden party style. Everyone chilling out under the shade of the trees as it was so hot, before a high tea was served in the marquee followed by brief speeches. We originally planned to head to a nearby beach for the couple portraits, but I had my concerns with it being the middle of the day during a heatwave, I guess the whole Cornwall ventured there which would have made it hard to produce some great images. So we headed to Kennall Vale, a nearby Wildlife and Nature Reserve to find shelter from the sun in this beautiful woodland. I loved all the photo opportunities there and it was much cooler than on the beach!

The cocktail bar was in full swing when we arrived back from the woodland and some of the guests had a great time joining the kids on the climbing frame and swing. Kim and Scott weren’t keen on a first dance so instead the evening started with a classic drinking game. Relaxed summer vibes all around! I’m so blessed to be able to photograph such gorgeous relaxed vibe weddings recently!

Here is a little taster from the day. Kim and Scott, thanks again for letting me photograph your very special day. Not long now for your final images…
