James and Rebecca’s summer wedding at the Ferry House on Harty seems like it was just a week ago, such is the awesome memories it instilled in my mind! The August sun (we’re all looking forward to getting that back in 2024) beamed down on the Isle of Sheppy again this year as we were treated to an absolute banger of a day.

Morgan and Sophie married at the always amazing Cooling Castle Barn at the very end of November in front of their select family and friends. Cooling Castle Barns Christmas decorations had only just been put up a couple of days before hand so were looking fresh, fresh, fresh. Along with the best mulled wine I have ever tasted, xmas was about to begin in style.

Well, where do we start with this? I knew this was going to be a huge highlight of my 2023 wedding season long before the actual day. Having shot Hollies Dads wedding quite early on in my life as a wedding photographer I already knew that I was going to be surrounded by some wonderful people, which is always something to get the excitement levels raised above the norm.

Andrew and Mollys wedding at Elmley Nature Reserve this August marked the last of three weddings I have shot at Elmley Nature Reserve this year. All have been an absolute joy to be a part of, and all have been completely unique in every way.

A little bit of throw back Thursday vibe going on here as I look back to one awesome Autumn wedding from the later parts of 2022. Lucy and Sam embraced the Autumnal wedding feels at the Ferry House, on what I will always remember as, the day of the ram skulls. Idyllic & Co. put together a modern classic design full of oranges and creams, lace and skulls, warm vibes with neon lights to boot.

Nestled in the historic heart of Rochester, Tom and Amy tied the knot at The Vines. Their naval-themed celebration, held at The Vines, was a charming nod to Tom’s naval heritage, blending tradition, romance, and a touch of adventure. The day began with the arrival of the couple in a stunning classic sports car, turning heads as it glided through Rochester’s cobbled streets.

A reminder that “have camera, will travel”, no distance is too far when the opportunity arrises. When Mark and Rachael invited me to photograph their wedding at The Pear Tree at Purton in Wiltshire I jumped at the chance knowing what an incredible venue this was. Plus, shooting away gives an opportunity to tick off another Premier Inn off of the list…..done quite a few now!

Well, what a way to kick off the new year! Craig and George tied the knot at the ever awesome Cooling Castle Barn in Kent……incidentally, just 5 minutes from my front door, always a total bonus. There is something very special about Cooling Castle Barn, epic yet cozy, grand yet kicks out the chilled vibes.

Here we go peeps!! Jack and Ellie rocking the life out of The Beacon Wedding Venue in Tunbridge Wells. An utterly awesome day that had everything a wedding day should have in order to obtain the status of “legendary”. The Beacon at Tunbridge Wells has shot straight up the top of my ‘mega venues list’, a definite top 5!!

The very end of the busiest May I have ever experienced, busiest month ever actually, see me attend the wedding of Kane and Emily at the Ferry House. Barns and cottages, teary eyes and walks along the water front. Kane & Emily fully embraced the vibe of modern wedding-dom. There was not a single moment in this day that was not filled with fun and smiles.
