Cotswolds wedding photographer.
Honey stone, zero stiff poses.
Documentary wedding photography and film across the Cotswolds, from Bibury and Tetbury to Cirencester and Chipping Campden. Your day as it actually felt, not a styled shoot that happened to have a wedding in it.
I'm just down the road.
I know these venues.
I'm based just outside Gloucester, so the Cotswolds is my patch, not a day trip. I've shot at The Swan in Bibury, Kingscote Barn near Tetbury, Lapstone Barn in Chipping Campden, Jenners Barn and the De Vere at Cotswold Water Park, so I know where the light goes and where the dark corners are.
Cotswold venues are gorgeous, and they come with quirks: low beams, barns that go dark by four in winter, village churches with strict rules about where I can stand. None of that is a problem. I plan around it so you don't have to think about it.
The bit that actually matters is the people. I'll be getting the real stuff: your mates losing it during the speeches, your nan on the dancefloor, the quiet minute after the ceremony when it finally sinks in.
All over the Cotswolds.
Bibury
Arlington Row, the river and The Swan. I've shot more weddings here than anywhere else in the Cotswolds.
Tetbury
Barn venues like Kingscote, with big skies and even bigger dancefloors.
Cirencester & the Water Park
Lakeside venues around South Cerney, plus town-centre ceremonies in Cirencester.
Chipping Campden
Lapstone Barn, honey-stone villages and cracking golden hour in the North Cotswolds.
Stroud & the Five Valleys
Steep valleys, old mills and the brewery. My own back yard.
Painswick
The Queen of the Cotswolds: churchyard yews and views right across the valley.
The Oxfordshire Cotswolds
Over the border to Merriscourt near Chipping Norton, Burford and Stow.
And beyond
No travel fees anywhere in England and Wales, so wherever your Cotswold venue is, I'll be there.
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.

Cotswolds wedding questions.
Do you charge travel to Cotswold venues?
No. There are no travel fees anywhere in England and Wales, so the price is the price.
Have you worked at our venue before?
Maybe. I've shot at The Swan, Kingscote Barn, Lapstone Barn, Jenners Barn, Merriscourt and the De Vere at Cotswold Water Park. If yours is new to me, tell me about it when you enquire and I'll plan around it.
What if it rains?
It's the Cotswolds, so it might. Old barns and stone hotels look great in moody light, and I'll always have a plan B for portraits that doesn't involve standing in a puddle.
How quickly do we get our photos?
You get 10 to 20 sneak peeks on the day, then your full gallery, every photo edited, within four weeks.
Do you film weddings too?
Yes. I can film your day alongside the photos, with highlight films and ceremony and speeches recordings available as add-ons.
