Dave and Sarika | Gate Street Barn | Surrey Wedding Photography

When we met Dave and Sarika we knew straight away that there wedding was going to be fun and they did not disappoint!

Held at the amazing Gate Street barn in Surrey Hill. There day was a mix of love and laughter. Dave started his day with breakfast with the boys while Sarika spent her morning getting glammed up by the amazing Olivia MillS MUA!

The afternoon was spent with family and friends in the gardens at Gate Street. Some of our highlights of the day with the Retro Taxi fitted as a Ice cream van serving amazing treats to their guests. We also loved the fish and chip van serving their evening food. We also love Dave shapes on the dance floor. Ending the evening sharing a cigar in the secret garden at Gate Street. Massive congrats again Dave and Sarika  

Becca and Joe | Rivervale Barns | Hampshire Wedding Photography

Becca and Joe celebrated their perfect day in the exquisite setting of Rivervale Barns, Hampshire. With every little detail planned to a T, from the personal doughnut tower, to the sweet table and everything in the barns.

With the weather holding up and everybody outside, bubbles flowing, kids playing, just a truly wonderful afternoon.

Just a truly amazing wedding, with some amazing people.

Becky and Ged | Highfield Park | Wedding Photographer Hampshire

We love Highfield Park. We just do. It’s wonderful. Perfect staff, perfect views, lovely building, excellent. So, anytime we get invited back to photograph another amazing wedding there, we just cannot help contain our excitement. Becky and Ged’s day was no exception. With their two beautiful daughters there alongside Mummy and Daddy, you just cant help smile at their little faces. Leaning right into the Disney theme, Becky had decked out Highfield was loads of tiny little references to her favourite Disney movies, a passion she’s definitely passed onto her little girls as Rapunzel arrived during the wedding breakfast to look after the girls!

Highfield and the surrounding countryside presented us with an absolutely incredible golden sunset, and wow was it worth it!

Thank you thank you thank you! Congratulations to you two and your beautiful girls!

Hannah & Lee | The Elvetham | Wedding Photography Hampshire

Once again, as we had many times in 2019, we found ourselves in the warm, inviting hallways of The Elvetham hotel, Hook. This time, for the magical day of Hannah and Lee! With their gorgeous outdoor ceremony, in the spectacular grounds of The Elvetham. With delightful, subtle styling, and a picture perfect bridal gown, Hannah really had created an incredible day. with dinner and speeches in the opulence of the library, followed by one heck of a party, everything was just delightful.

Shona and Magnus | DIY Festival Wedding | Surrey Wedding Photography

There’s something really special about a DIY wedding, the ability to make it truly your own. No tie downs, no restrictions, no rooms to have to fit things into… and say you were huge music fans, who make regular trips to various music festivals across the country? Well, you’d have a festival as a wedding right? Damn right. And that’s exactly what Shona and Magnus did with their absolutely incredible wedding at a family farm! With picturesque skies for miles around, it really was the dreamy summer wedding they’d hoped for!

DM's Favourite Places - Warbrook House

Grand old country mansion in the Berkshire countryside? yes please. Weddings there? Even more yes please.

Well, let us introduce you to Warbrook House, a Grade I listed mansion that now hosts some of the counties most beautiful weddings, and we’re lucky enough to photograph them.

Set in it’s secluded land, complete with woodlands, lakes and a massive garden area for you and your guests to socialise and let’s be honest, get drunk in. Warbrook House really does provide a day to remember.

Throughout the Autumnal season, the woodlands really are to die for, bursting with colours from auburn to deep deep olives and sages. Let’s be honest, it does create nature’s most perfect backdrop for photos, and with a quick 1 minute golf buggy ride from the hotel, we can whisk you up there for some tranquil release from the mayhem of weddings. All while creating wall-worthy images at the same time.

Littered with hidden doorways, hidey holes, gates, fences and woodland, we really can go truly crazy with creative ideas at Warbrook House, especially when couples throw the umbrella and just go for it!

Lucy and Craig, I still take my hat off to you for this!

Oh, did I forget to mention? In the summer the woodlands are blessed with all of the colours of life, purples, greens, reds, bluebells, yellows, it really is something to behold, and a sight I really feel has to be seen in person to be appreciated for it’s true wonder.

And yes. Don’t worry. We know where the sunset is. We got you.

Claire and James | Northbrook Park | Hampshire Wedding Photography

What to do when the sky’s grey and it’s your wedding day? Get on with it!! That’s exactly what Claire and James did, and boy oh boy wasn't it truly magical. The most amazing autumnal colours, spectacular orange, brown and red leaves, mixing with the gorgeous evergreens of Northbrook Park.

With James and the lads looking sharp in their grey tweed, and Claire and the girls absolutely wowing in their dresses, everything was perfect.

And then, the heavens opened, and boom. It was rain picture time. Running out without a care in the world, Claire and James got the most incredible pictures!

Hannah & Sam | Queen's Hotel | Southsea Wedding Photographer

Let’s talk, Halloween Weddings. If you’re gonna do it, do it right. Go big or go home right? Well, Hannah and Sam certainly did it properly. At the Queen’s Hotel in Southsea, they had the whole thing. Pumpkins, skulls, witchcraft books, steaming cauldrons. Wow. Everything.

With Sam absolutely killing it in his Orange-Red Tux, and Hannah dropped jaws in her beautiful Dress with handmade cape - also, let’s talk capes. Bridal capes are awesome. Like, super awesome. Hannah’s adorned with moons and stars, all handplaced by her, and man it looks amazing.

Not letting the weather slow them down, Hannah wanted photos on the beach and at the pier, so in the middle of the windiest weekend this autumn… there we were, on the beach, in the rain, gales, and yes. It was brilliant.

Thank you guys, an absolute pleasure!

How can you not love a barn wedding? Well, we certainly do. And none more so than the delightfully quaint Clock Barn, Whitchurch. Situated in the heart of rural Hampshire, Clock Barn really is the perfect, secluded setting for your big day!

Charlotte and Ric | Millbridge Court | Farnham Wedding Photographer

Booking a wedding in December is always going to result in some anxious BBC Breakfast watching, some crossed fingers, and probably a bit of praying. Looks like Charlotte and Ric can count their lucky stars, as their day at Millbridge court was blessed with some of the bluest sky we’d had all year!

With her absolutely beautiful dress, and jaw dropping flowers from Hannah Berry, Charlotte wowed everybody, all day! With her gorgeous daughter Mabel in tow, it really was an endearing sight.

With Ric going for the good ole check three-piece, looking dapper as always, the pair were a sight to behold!

With singing waiters, neon signs, and a bouncing dance floor, we won’t be forgetting this day in a hurry!

Thank you for allowing us to capture your day!

Natasha and Rob | Tylney Hall | Hampshire Wedding Photographer

Sometimes, all you need to distract from the rain, is one of the most striking, classic and beautiful country homes in the country, and here we are. Tylney Hall wedding venue for Natasha & Rob’s special day, surrounded by countless friends and family, many of whom made the 500 mile trip down from north of the border.

The rain and soft ground wouldn’t stop them though, with Natasha spending her days in the fields with her horses, her wedding day wasn’t going to be any different! On went the wellies, and out in the gardens we went! Across the bridge with the most gorgeous view of Tylney Hall in the background, what a sight.

Aided by the ever-wonderful Pav, the toastmaster, we had a really amazing day with Natasha & Rob, and would like to say thank you again for having us there!

Emily & Simon | The Elvetham | Hampshire Weddings

Ahhhh the Elvetham, effectively a second home for us during the wedding season, and let’s be honest, there are worse places to be stuck every second weekend! With it’s heritage, tradition and hyper-attentive staff, one cannot fail to be impressed by this glorious venue, nestled in the heart of the Hampshire woodlands. Emily and Sam, we thank you, we thank you for your smiles, your laughs, your infectious happiness that left us leaving your wedding, and driving home with a grin from ear-to-ear! Thanks!

Evie & Craig | The Elvetham Wedding | Hampshire Wedding Photography

Evie & Craig, what a day, what a wonderful wedding! Your love is incredible, your wedding was exquisite, the church, the elvetham, the flowers, the dress… truly exquisite. It was a pleasure and a privilege to capture it for you, and we thank you. As usual, The Elvetham provided the dream setting, with it’s gardens, sunshine and traditional character, always a joy. Always.

Natalie & Matthew | Old Thorns Golf Club | Surrey Wedding

Sunshine, sunshine, sunshine! The first word that comes to mind whenever we think back to Natalie and Matt’s wedding at Old Thorns Golf club. Sunshine. So, so, so, so much sun! Bringing warmth, smiles, and a whole load of great photo opportunities for Natalie and Matt’s big day! I mean, c’mon, that sunlight, those ferns, and THAT DRESS! Man… photographer’s dream! And Natalie and Matthew made the most of it!

Gemma & Rich | Dorset Wedding Photographer

You gotta love outdoor ceremonies, I mean, very, very brave to plan and organise one in the UK, at any time of year, but hey, Gemma and Rich got lucky, and scored the jackpot! Nice and warm, not too hot, with a lovely bit of cloud to help make their pictures really stunning! A true joy to photograph this one! After a gorgeous garden party, complete with badminton and a climbing frame… up to the Manor House for party time! And what a party it was! 10/10 on the drunken shenanigans you lot! All in all, just a ruddy good laugh! And a great, great day at work!

Carly & Chris | Wasing Walled Garden Wedding

We can only start this by congratulating Carly (and maybe chris) on her (their) discovery of the spectacular Walled Garden at Wasing, on the same estate, and just down the path from the exquisite Wasing Park, the walled garden is the DIY, garden party, woodland ceremony, festival vibe wedding venue we’re all looking for! I mean.. just look at it! Truly magical. With some incredible styling, mind-blowing food, and a good splash of happy guests, their wedding will be one for the memory for sure! P.S… their photos are quite good too!

Lucy & Ryan - Easthampstead Park - Berkshire Wedding

Never was there such a love between people as that of Lucy, Ryan, their children and their family. It was infectious, the smiles, the laughs, the hugs, it was really truly stunning. It was a pleasure to be a part of their day at Easthampstead Park, surrounded by this sheer joy! With Lucy’s proud brother walking her down the aisle to Ryan, such a smile is a rare seen thing but my word it made us happy to see them together, publicly declaring their love and commitment in front of those they hold close.

DM's Favourite Places - Old Thorns Golf Resort

Do you want magical sunsets, jaw-dropping indoor spaces, vast, gorgeous woodlands, and a place to have a wedding? Well. Look no further than Old Thorns Golf Resort in Liphook.

I said vast, gorgeous woodland didn’t I? It really, truly is incredible. Towering trees, light catching ferns, and awesome, awesome sunlight!

Oh did we mention they’re huge… yeah.. well, they’re huge! Honestly, endless, endless possibilities for photographs here!

Along with their stunning, light, airy and beautiful ceremony rooms, overlooking the hills of the surrounding golf course, you can even adventure up and around the course to find the perfect spot for those breathtaking sunsets! - which, by the way, is a favourite past time of ours.

I wasn’t kidding when I said breathtaking sunsets… I mean I really wasn’t. They are honestly incredible, and always the perfect way to round off any wedding day!

Why not run back outside for some nighttime pictures next to one of the many, many lakes? Doesn’t really get much better than the natural fog from the lakes, complimenting the picture and just making them that bit more dramatic!

Sophie & Jack | The Mill House

Sophie and Jack’s relationship started when they were just high school sweethearts, and boy did it show! Their bond together, the love between was them just a delight to be around, Sophie’s enchanting smile and Jack’s effortless humour really made their wedding such a wonderful occasion! The Mill House also provided a beautiful country house garden setting for them to drink and chat, along with some beautiful fields for those epic golden hour photos and we can’t wait to go back! A gorgeous blush pink for the bridesmaids and Jack’s details, and a classic marquee for the meal, perfect!
