Wedding photographer at St Johns the Baptist in Westbourne.

Today I was at St Johns the Baptist church in Westbourne, which is very local to me. I was doing the wedding photography for Beth and Sam and it was a great day, with around 70 people attending. It was a venue I had photographed numerous times before and has the oldest Yew Tree corridor in the UK, dating back to the 16th Century! A great day and experience for me and all the guests and family. 

After the ceremony and a few family group shots within the amazing grounds, guests, family and photographer also - were off to The Cricketters Pub for a meal and an evening of celebrations, via photos at the stream which runs through Westbourne.

Despite recent hiccups in the weather and forecast the temperature was fine and rain stayed away for photos, with St Johns providing a great backdrop to the group photos. The Vicar Andrew at the church was also great to work with and was helpful to me too.

All the images were available for viewing for Beth and Sam and their families very promptly.

Virtual tour and 360 tour photographer in Hampshire and West Sussex

 

Today I am listing some recent property and commercial work samples (for estate agents, landlords) including some virtual or 360 tours. Hopefully, these will help publicise my existing and future clients with the broad range of work I usualy cover as a busy and experienced full time freelance photographer, with over twenty years in business.

 

So here is a sample virtual tour / 360 tour of a local Portsmouth based retail business. Virtual tours represent a great way to showcase your property or premises. Virtual tours can be used to help clients sell or rent their properties, or else to showcase a particular view or look that they wish to illustrate to potential clients from the comfort of their own viewing station.     

 

Especially if you are marketing your property, residential or commercial, for sales or lettings - please do get in touch and check my availability and see what I may be able to offer you. Contact me via text 07761157296 or email info@martinlewis.biz so you can discuss how a virtual tour might work for you.

Wedding photographer at the Portsmouth Register Offices in Burnaby Road, Portsmouth.

Today I was at Portsmouth Register Offices. I was doing the wedding photography for Grace and Aaron and it was a great day, with a mainly family group attending (around 45 people). It was the first time back at this popular and favourite Register Office for me for a long while. 

After a 12.30am ceremony and a few family shots on the stair case - we all headed off the the Southbourne village hall for a larger gathering and celebrations.

The Portsmouth Register Offices is one of my favourite Register Offices to cover, as the space and gardens are fantastic and the staff are always helpful to me too. It was great to see some familiar faces again at the Register Offices.

Wedding photographer at the Weald and Downland Museum near Singleton and Chichester

Today was a local wedding at the Weald and Downland Museum in West Sussex and close to Goodwood and Chichester. I was doing the wedding photography for Jo and Andy and they were fun people to work with. A small family wedding and the couple live nearby to where I live. 

After the ceremony was photographed the general photos occured around this familiar site, with mainly good weather. We had a very good day at this venue and the staff at the museum coordinated the day to make sure everything ran smoothly and on time. They were super helpful to me and it was great to be back at the museum for the first time in a while for me. The grounds and exhibits at this museum are fantastic for wedding photography. A few taster photos are attached for you to preview. It was Half Term and so the grounds were quite busy during this short visit.

You can see the website of the hotel here The Weald and Downland Museum  and their contact and other details are all on their website.
