Stratton court barn wedding | Naomi & Scott

Naomi and Scotts wedding took place in August at the amazing Stratton Court Barn at Pool Farm. Being one of Stratton Courts recommended suppliers means that I get the pleasure of photographing weddings there a number of times a year. And each time I visit I always look out for new and exciting locations to take the bride and groom. At Naomi and Scotts wedding we visited the woodland and fields beyond, a location I had never considered before and only a short walk from the venue.

Wallingford Town hall wedding

I’ve only had a few weddings this year so far and its soon to get a bit crazy! Each one I have shot so far has been epic and Steven and Toms wedding in Wallingford, Oxfordshire continues this trend!

The weather forecast for the day was heavy rain all day long! This isn't a concern for me but it does mean that the photographs will look a bit different - and everyone wants a bit of sunshine on their wedding day don’t they! For Steven and Tom the sun did shine (not literally) and despite the forecast of heavy rain we did not receive a single drop! Which meant that we were able to walk the streets of Wallingford between the different locations.

Intimate Oxford wedding

Christin and Simons wedding was a short notice booking that also became postponed due to the ongoing covid restrictions. It was a lovely small intimate wedding involving Christin and Simon getting married in the Dexter Room, Oxford with Simon’s parents and Christin’s mum as the only guests. After the ceremony we took a few formal pics with the parents outside the Dexter room after which Christin, Simon and I took a short trip to Christ Church Meadows for a few intimate portraits.

Christ Church meadow Oxford

I have photographed weddings at the Dexter Room in Oxford on many occasions but none have been quite so significant and exciting as Avery and Mark’s. There was nothing wrong with all the other weddings I had photographed at the Dexter room, but the reason I was excited for Avery and Mark’s was because it was the first wedding back since the beginning of December 2020 after Covid restrictions had become eased, and to add to that the fact that very few weddings had gone ahead in 2020. It has been a super tough 12 months for many reasons and Avery and Mark’s wedding felt like the beginning of a new chapter - lets pray for this to be true!
