With my job I get to travel to some beautiful places and meet some of the loveliest people one could ever wish to meet. I also get to capture some of the most important days and moments of their lives. I am incredibly lucky!
Jenna and Chris were married on a glorious May day in the beautiful church of St Marys in Weeford. A quick stroll across the country lane took you to the reception venue (The School House Restaurant) with its picturesque views across quintessential English countryside. I was in heaven!!

It’s been years since I did a weather dance back home in Zimbabwe (don’t ask) however, the weekend of Sophie and Johns’ wedding, I was more than willing to do an anti rain dance to chase the storm fronts away that were creeping in..
Deciding not to put my neighbours or any innocent passers by through the ordeal of my dancing, I settled for packing the car with a portable studio, props, groundsheets, umbrellas and of course my trusty wellies ….
It was a very wet and windy day, the met office had issued severe weather warnings across the country but in true English fashion, no one let the elements deter them from having a truly lovely day.
Not being able to go outside at all, I set up my portable studio and brought out my trusty box of props. This went down an absolute storm (excuse the pun) and everyone joined in the photo fun.
Held at the lovely Aston Wood Golf Club, the venue and staff were splendid, it may have been wet an stormy outside but inside everyone was having a grand old time celebrating with the new Mr and Mrs Nicholls.
Hi Stephanie,
I have received my wedding photos and absolutely love them. Thank you so much! – Sophie

Having the ability to capture and create beautiful, timeless images for couples on their wedding day makes me an incredibly lucky and a very happy photographic artist. When I have the opportunity to do this for friends and people that mean a lot to me, well, it is just simply wonderful.
looking through our fantastic photo album and what can I say except they are absolutely fantastic photographs, taken by a true friend and professional who clearly takes pride in her work. – Rob
This Lady is an absolutely fantastic photographer her dedication to capturing the perfect photos is unbelievable and the effort she made to capture every special moment was brilliant. I can’t thank you enough Steph for the way you were on our wedding day. Thank you from the bottom of my heart xx I recommend to everyone that needs someone to capture those special moments. – Lisa
Rob and Lisa were married on a gorgeous early October day at Nailcote Hall in Coventry. The day was perfect, and the feelings of love and happiness were palpable to all that were there to share their special day.
This wedding had such a natural feel to it. Everyone was so relaxed and I was able to take amazing photographs, that truly captured the spirit of the day and the love that Rob and Lisa have for one another.

Perfect weather, the most gorgeous setting, lots of happy, smiley wedding guests and most importantly, a stunning bride and her handsome groom.
Dominique and Luke’s wedding day was out of this world. The attention to detail, time and so much love that they put into planning their fabulous day was evident wherever you looked.
The ceremony was held in St Mary Magdalene Church in Great Alne, Warwickshire – I love this little church with its views across the fields and its bell tower and gallery; which every year has a hive of bees take up residence (and every year I wonder if this is the year I eventually get stung).
After the ceremony, guests made their way to Dominique’s parents home, where her amazing father had mowed, reseeded and grown the perfect green field, on which they had a stunning marquee, filled with flowers and decorations. Most of which were home grown and hand made.
I was in photographic heaven; with no limit to things and happy, gorgeous people to photograph.
I just wanted to say a bit thank you for the photos. We are so pleased with the results – you captured the day perfectly!!
Also, that one photo (well they were all fantastic but that one in particular) of Luke and I in the field is my dream photo, I will treasure it always. I am not a soppy person really, but it looks and feels almost magical.

Laura and Andrew did not want a full days photography and instead asked me to capture and take as many photographs as I could in 2 hours. This included the arrivals at the church, the ceremony and a mixture of posed and informal shots of themselves and wedding guests after the ceremony.
The ceremony was held at the lovely out of the way church St Mary Magdalen in Great Alne with the wedding reception at the beautiful Arrow Mill in Alcester.

Growing up in Zimbabwe and having an English father; whenever I would think about where I was born or where Dad came from (and where he got his funny accent), – I would imagine beautiful, picturesque country villages and churches, with cobbled streets, thatched roofs and hedgerows full of wild flowers … The day that I shot this wedding, I felt like I had stepped into one of my very own childhood fantasies! It was beautiful.
The wedding reception was held at the exquisite Mallory Court, where their attention to detail and service is second to none. We were able to capture truly stunning images in and around the beautiful gardens.
Hi Steph,
We just wanted to say a massive thank you for Sunday, you were amazing! The whole day just flew by and we are so excited to see the photos! 🙂Hi Steph,
We just wanted to say thank you so much for the photos – we absolutely love them and love the presentation box that they came in, so pretty! It’s been great reliving the day going through them all!

There are some wedding days that you wish wouldn’t end and this was one of them. I had an absolute ball capturing Siarrad and Davids’ day.
I love the buzz of wedding preparation’s leading up to the ceremony. There is an electricity in the air, and people walk a fine edge between excitement and nerves. For myself as photographer that specialises in unguarded moments and expression, to capture the true story of a wedding day – this to me, is simply magic!
Siarrad was one of the most relaxed and dare I say ‘chilled’ brides I have ever had the privilege to photograph. She took everything in her stride and never stopped smiling. With 13 people in the bridal suit (8 bridal party members, 2 hair and make up artists, 2 videographers, 1 photographer) there was such a lively atmosphere. The sound of laughter and merriment must have echoed down the hotel corridors.
The running of the day was seamless and it all flowed so beautifully. The weather was perfect from a photographers point of view and because we had spoken about lighting and setting aside enough time for photographs on the day, I was able to take advantage of the beautiful late afternoon light and capture some truly gorgeous moments.
Deer Park is a fantastic venue. It was my first time shooting there and I am already itching to go back. With its country setting, panoramic views, beautiful gardens, access to fields and unlimited photo opportunities, it really is a country wedding photographers dream location. Unfortunately the deer deigned not to make an appearance on the day, however there is always next time!
I had the privilege to work with the lovely Matt and Russ from Shoot the Piano Player Films on the day and I can’t recommend them highly enough. These gents really know their stuff (and they laughed at my bad jokes)!
Siarrads and her bevy of beauties had their hair done by the fab Natalie from Rock ‘n Roller Parlour and they all looked stunning throughout the day.
Thank you Stephanie for your wonderful service at our wedding on 11th June 2016
You were so professional, friendly and helpful. You even coped with my photo-craze dad! XX

What a wedding Day!!
I could easily stop my blog right there with those four words, as this wedding day was just gorgeous.
Matt and Jane are such a special couple with a wonderful family and a fabulous group of friends. When all of these people came together to celebrate their love for one another and their children, it was truly a magical day.
We would just like to say thank you so much for photographing our special day. The memories will never be forgotten as you have captured those moments for us. Matt & Jane

What a lovely afternoon we had shooting at the gorgeous Mallory Court!
With the wedding only a few weeks away and we wanted to get a feel for the location before their big day. The bride-to-be was simply stunning in her dress and heels, so I can only imagine that she is going to be an absolute vision on their wedding day.
We had such fun exploring the grounds; with so many beautiful backdrops and places calling out to be used in photos, it is a photographers dream location.

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure to spend a golden hour shooting with Simon and Claire in the lovely grounds of Hogarths Hotel.
With their wedding only a month away, we wanted to explore the grounds and hotel where I will be shooting their wedding in a few short weeks. We had such a giggle and if it wasn’t for the fading daylight, I could have clicked away for hours more.
These photos really show how much they adore each other and how comfortable they are in front of the camera.
I can’t wait until June and their big day!
