Real Wedding | Josh and Tyler say I do at Guildhall, Bath
Last month I had the pleasure of photographing a lovely wedding at the Guildhall in Bath for Josh and Tyler, their original wedding was due to take place in March, the night before, Halls, venues and churches were closed and the country went into lockdown. Having their wedding cancelled at the very last moment was heart breaking for everyone. It was so lovely to hear from Tyler saying that they have been able to reschedule their wedding and could finally make their lifelong promise to each other.

Travelling in Style
There was little tradition at Charlie and Emma's wedding. The couple travelled from Dubia to the beautiful Cotswolds and were joined by many family and friends for a weekend of celebrations. Much of the weekend celebrations took place at the stunning Temple Guiting Manor. I spent the morning photographing the details of the bride's stunning gown and flowers - which featured hops, these featured throughout the day and represented the couples' love of beer and the industry in which they work in. As well as these details I captured Charlie along with his best man and ushers before they headed to the church in Broadwell village, a beautiful Cotswold village where Emma grew up.
