After getting nicely relaxed together on Christine and Aled’s Mwnt pre-wedding shoot we knew these two would be great to photograph on their wedding day, and they didn’t disappoint. For instance, I can’t remember a ceremony so full of laughter and huge smiles as this one. Chrissie seriously beams all day long – their happiness together constantly… Read More
Sara and Rob at Rhosygilwen
Many of our favourite weddings from our ten years of capturing people’s happiest days have been here in the beautiful Preseli hills. And it’s not because of the picturesque landscape – it’s the wonderful people here. There are families and groups of friends that we’ve been privileged to share weddings with over and over again, who always… Read More
Michelle and Antony at Manorbier Castle
Michelle and Ant had rather a brisk spring day for their intimate wedding at Manorbier Castle. These two are great fun to be with, there’s not too much they take seriously. And with Ant such a stylish dresser (and Guinness world record holder – guess what for) and Michelle a DIY genius who made all… Read More
Nia and Richard at Hammet House
Nia and Richard had a beautiful intimate wedding with just 18 guests last autumn and threw the usual format out the window to do things their own way. While the guests were gathering inside Hammet House, Nia and Richard met up at the end of the long driveway for a fun ‘first look’ photoshoot. Woohoo! We’ve always wanted to… Read More
Laura and Rob at Hammet House
Last autumn we had a beautiful time with this gorgeous couple – and also with our very favourite make-up artist, chauffeur, and filmmaker…a bit of a dream-team really!

Sara and Giles at The Falcondale
Most weather conditions got packed into Sara and Giles’s Autumn wedding day at the Falcondale mansion in Lampeter. It’s an elegant, classic affair – complete with top hats and tails, white roses, horse-drawn carriage and ceremonial sword! But then to break with all tradition, immediately after the choreographed first dance Sara takes over the mic with a surprise song for… Read More
Teleri and Meilyr at Hammet House
Teleri and Meilyr’s wedding date last September was forecast for rain all day…never stop hoping. 🙂 We went down to Cwmtydu beach for photos, a good choice as it’s always fairly quiet and you’re never far from the water. I also really like the huge rocks. 🙂 These storm clouds, which never broke… Read More
Emma and Jason at Newton House and The Plough Inn
Emma is a truly beautiful bride, and she and Jason were both so photogenic and relaxed in front of the camera. One of those couples that just make it easy. And with an amazing Maggie Sottero gown and the fantastic Newton House as the backdrop – this is a really good one. 🙂 … Read More
Claudia and Huw at Y Talbot, Tregaron
Claudia and Huw’s sheep-themed wedding was one of the loveliest of the summer for us – in spite of being one of the very few which wasn’t scorching sunshine. We felt so welcome with this extremely laid-back bride and groom. You’ll see their exuberance coming through in every image! After speaking French at… Read More
Hannah and Rhys at Gwesty’r Emlyn
I’ve been really looking forward to blogging this wedding (from last August!) for lots of reasons: a gorgeous photogenic couple; a perfect summer’s day; a stunning polka dot Jesus Peiro gown; and the delicious orange theme that really set the whole wedding alight. And this was not just the usual bi-lingual but a tri-lingual wedding.… Read More
Sophie and Emlyn at Llys Meddyg
Back at the end of July we had a lovely day of understated elegance with Sophie and Emlyn at Llys Meddyg Restaurant in Newport, Pembrokeshire. Sophie decided she didn’t want her preparations photographed so we began at the beautiful rustic little St Mary’s Church in Manorwen, near Goodwick. It was bursting with flowers – I… Read More

Wenan and Gareth had a gorgeous chapel wedding back in July, with their beautiful little daughter who you’ll see below getting her make-up done just like her mum!! She is such a cutie. 🙂 Have you ever seen such a dapper minister?! Vince was very envious of his style. 🙂 … Read More

Nina and Rhys at Jabajak Vineyard
One of the very hottest days of this amazing hot summer was Nina and Rhys’s gorgeous wedding day at the beginning of June. We photographed Nina’s sister’s wedding in the same church a few years ago and it was great to be welcomed back by the whole family. They are just as good as ever at… Read More
Gemma and Martin at Nanteos Mansion
We’re at the time of year when blogging becomes next to impossible!!!

Catrin and Arwel at The Plough Inn
Catrin and Arwel had an extremely hot day on Mayday weekend for their wedding at Peniel Chapel and The Plough Inn, Rhosmaen. Even after ten years of weddings (I know, I can’t believe it!!!) we occasionally still get a “first” at a wedding. In this case it’s a handbell duet. Yep. Here are some of… Read More

Winter Wedding with Bonnie and Rhodri at Llangoed Hall
Bonnie from Australia and Rhodri from Wales travelled from their current home in Hong Kong for their stunning country house wedding in Rhodri’s homeland.

Oh we do love Christmas! Look… Read More
