Grand hotel, relaxed day.

Natural, documentary wedding photography at Blunsdon House Hotel on the edge of Swindon. Real moments, easy group photos and golden hour in the gardens.

The venue

A hotel that still feels
relaxed and personal.

Blunsdon House sits on the edge of Swindon with the Wiltshire countryside rolling out behind it. You get the polish of a proper hotel, with elegant rooms for the ceremony and big gardens for drinks and portraits.

What I love most is how easy-going it feels despite its size. Guests relax, the staff keep things moving, and that leaves me free to catch the genuine, unplanned moments that make your gallery.

Photographer's notes

What it's like to shoot here.

01

The light

Big windows in the bridal suite and reception rooms give soft, flattering light for getting ready and evening speeches.

02

The gardens

Lawns, flower beds and countryside views make an easy backdrop for drinks, groups and golden hour portraits.

03

The feel

Grand but never stuffy. Couples and guests settle in quickly, which is exactly when the best candid photos happen.

Your day, not a photoshoot.

Most of your gallery will be real moments: the nerves, the laughs, the tears in the front row and the chaos on the dancefloor. I'll take you away for a short portrait session when the light is good, then hand you back to your guests.

Blunsdon House wedding questions.

Have you photographed weddings at Blunsdon House?

Yes, including the Lee and Wright weddings above, so I already know where the light is best, where groups work well and how the day usually flows.

Do you charge travel to Blunsdon House?

No. There are no travel fees anywhere in England and Wales, so the price on my website is the price you pay.

How far ahead should we book?

Most couples book 12 to 18 months out, and Saturdays from May to September go first. Midweek and winter dates are often available at shorter notice, so it's always worth asking.

Can you film our wedding as well?

Yes. The Storyteller package covers photos and a highlight film, or you can add a highlight film to shorter days. Same documentary style, just me working quietly with a couple of cameras.
