Pimhill Barn Wedding
Rachael & Geoff Married at pimhill barn.
Where to begin with this wedding? it had to be one of the most relaxed weddings I have ever had the pleasure of photographing at Pimhill barn, I started early to take exterior photographs of the venue along with some of the details and room layout, only to find the groom,best man and ushers playing a game of touch ruby, even the owners pet dog came for a run out.
The weather was absolutely stunning for Rachael and Geoff ‘s big day. Geoff’s family and friends had travelled all the way from New Zealand for the wedding and I was so glad they had such a perfect day!
Rachael has the most amazing red hair and looked absolutely stunning in her designer dress.
Relaxed wedding photography
The couple had requested that the photography should be natural and relaxed with just a few family groups, so after the service we left them to mingle with their guests and went about documenting the day.
The grounds at Pimhill
The grounds at Pimhill are beautifully landscaped with amazing views across Shropshire, we had a little time in the gardens and made use of some of the feature’s, the tree house proved to be popular with everyone for some fun shots.
The reception
Once the photographs had finished we headed back into the barn for the speeches and wedding breakfast, the room was lit with thousands of fairy lights and looked so pretty.
We moved seamlessly into the evening for the dancing and partying to really get going with the coolest band and live music, what a party, what a day!
I feel incredibly lucky and privileged to be able to document these wonderful days for couples all over the country, and providing them with memories to treasure for the rest of their lives.
Picking out some favourite images for this blog was easy…keeping them down to a blog-friendly number was not…

Somerford Hall Spring Weddings – Vicky & Jacob
Somerford Hall Wedding Photography
In March I was back at Somerford Hall for the wedding of Vicky and Jacob, a fantastic venue with endless possibilities for some lovely wedding images and one that I’m proud to be on their list of recommended suppliers. I have photographed at Somerford Hall countless times over the years and each wedding is always as unique and individual as the couples that I photograph.
A HELPING HAND
I asked my good friend Martyn of Greswold photography to give me a hand with the wedding as my usual assistant was a guest. I have known Martyn a number of years and know I can trust him to help produce a great folio of images.
THE WEDDING CEREMONY AT SOMERFORD
The wedding ceremony was to be held at Somerford Hall in the drawing room followed by the meal and speeches in the Ballroom.
After the service we headed out onto the terrace for a few family photographs, thankfully the weather was kind to us all day and this added to the relaxed atmosphere and fun of the day.
It’s important to me that the couple get time to enjoy their day and spend time with guests along with having the photographs, so my style is a mixture of classic and documentary, thus giving all my couples the best of both worlds without taking over the day.
Vicky and Jacob were fantastic to work with and gave both myself and Martyn time to get some lovely images for them that they and their family will treasure for a lifetime.
This wedding was such a pleasure to photograph and below are a small selection of images from a fantastic day at Somerford Hall….

Staffordshire wedding photographer 2015
A look back at 2015 weddings, images taken at Somerford hall, Weston hall, The moathouse, Swinfen hall, Pendrell hall, The Ashes and many more cool venues.
So 2016 is now upon us and another wedding season will be starting in a couple of weeks, I wanted to look back over what was an amazing year working with some fantastic couples and cool venues. I was going to post a couple of my favourite images from last year, then it ended up me trying to post one from each wedding I had shot, and now I have far too many but hopefully you can get to the end and enjoy them as much as i enjoyed taking them.
I started photographing weddings 20 years ago and I’m still,if not more passionate about it now than ever, I love working with couples to provide them with a lifetime of memories, telling the story of their wedding day, so thank you to everyone past and present who has booked me to document their wedding day, here’s to 2016.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
