Looking for a photographer for your Stanley House wedding?

My style of photography is very relaxed and weddings at Stanley House would be no different. A typical wedding day would be starting with the groom for his preparations with his groomsmen, before moving to the bride for the majority of the time. I like to get very involved with the camera, stuck in, which makes my compositions more powerful. Of course my camera is 100% silent so you will not hear the noise of the shutter at any stage. This just helps me capture unobtrusively. A few of my receptions at Stanley House Hotel have had ceremonies at local churches, but others have been in the main rooms. There is always a sense of high emotion at weddings, and I love to capture this.

One of the features of photographing weddings at Stanley House I love the most is the location of the sunsets the have. The suns sets over the distant hills and this has produced the most incredible images over the years. This time is still not posed, I ask you to just enjoy yourselves, however using the incredible backdrop and surrounds, I try to produce both vibrant and colourful photos that represent you as a couple.
