Wedding photographer at Great Fosters in Egham, Surry

Today I was at Great Fosters Hotel, at Egham in Surrey. I was doing the wedding photography for Amy and Peter and they were fab to work with.
After a short ceremony, we all headed out to the amazing landscaped gardens, for an afternoon of photos, a wedding breakfast and celebrations into the night. You can see the website of the fab Great Fosters Hotel here: www.greatfosters.co.uk
I hadn’t attended the venue previously, apart from when I met the couple to plan their photography and with around one month to go. It has incredible grounds with a small bridge over water, various ponds and formal gardens and some tree lined avenues and archways.
I have attached a few of those images to give you a flavor of the day and can’t wait until the next time I return to this fantastic (from a photography perspective) location for a wedding in Surrey.
I thoroughly enjoyed working at Great Fosters and got on very well with the wedding coordinator and colleagues who were all very helpful to me.
The images will be available for viewing for Amy and Peter and their families very soon. Attached are just a few taster ones to show you a little of the detail of the day.

Wedding photographer at the St John the Baptist church in Westbourne near Emsworth and at the Sailing Club on Thorney Island Army base.

Today I was at two different venues, including St John the Baptist church in Westbourne, Emsworth harbour and the Sailing Club on the Thorney Island Army base - all within a stones throw of where I live in Emsworth. I was doing the wedding photography for Jess and Alan and we had a great day. After the ceremony and a few family shots at church - we went onto Thorney Island for some shots of the couple by the water, before a reception at the Sailing Club on Thorney Island and adjacent to the Emsworth harbour.
Owing to a high work load during the summer, I will continue to put just a few concise details and of course some of my favourite and perhaps more ceative or unusual shots from each wedding alongside the text. I will be updating my blog over the next few days and will try and keep it up to date for the rest of the year. Typically, I just offer a taster of my favourites and they are invariably some B&W or toned images.
All the images were quickly available for viewing for Jess and Alan and their family an dfriends, but just a few favourites are shown here.

Wedding photographer at the Eastbury Hotel in Sherbourne in Dorset









Today I was at the Eastbury Hotel, Sherbourne in Dorset. I was doing the wedding photography for Clare and Tom. They were great fun to work with and clearly had an enjoyable time. After a short ceremony, we all headed outdoors, for an afternoon and evening of speeches, photos, a wedding breakfast for the kids, BBQ and celebrations into the night. You can see the website of the fab Eastbury Hotel here: www.theeastburyhotel.co.uk
I hadn’t attended the venue for a good number of years and it was great to be back at this fantastic venue. I have attached a few images to give you a flavor of the day and can’t wait until the next time I return to this fantastic (from a photography perspective) location for a wedding in Dorset.
I thoroughly enjoyed working at the Eastbury Hotel again and got on well with the staff who were all very helpful to me.
The images will be available for viewing for Clare and Tom and their families very soon.

Wedding photographer at HighCliffe Castle in Christchurch and Careys Manor in The New Forest

Today was a wedding at HighCliffe Castle in Dorset with Susan and Grahame and HighCliffe is a fantastic location for wedding photography. After the ceremony and some family photos, a short drive from HighCliffe to the New Forest, the couple and their guests then took a shotrt journey to their hotel at Careys Manor in Brockenhurst. It was a fantastic day to photograph and I was working with the couple from around midday until first dance at around 8pm. It was a hot day at times.
I have uploaded just a few images here from their day and will be simply showcasing just a few images from each wedding for the rest of this busy summer, usually and rather than trying to tell the 'whole story'. I always enjoy working at HighCliffe Castle, with fabulous gardens and grounds for photos and very helpful and supportive staff. My trip over to Careys Hotel in Brockenhurst was also an enjoyable one and I was assisted by some fantastic staff at the hotel too.
I am currently offering some very good rates and discounts for any remaing 2017 dates and into the early New Year too, subject to my availability. Whether it be a wedding, party or other special occasion, I can offer you something different and creative, yet reliable and professional! So, I look forward to possibly helping YOU too.
