Covering a full day of photographic magic, I had the pleasure of capturing the stunning wedding of Ellis and Aimee. Located at the picturesque Manor Park Country Hotel in Cardiff, the grandeur of the venue was suited perfectly to their dreamy day.
&nbsp;
Prior to the wedding day, we had a detailed conversation six weeks in advance. We discussed the couple's vision for the day, confirmed the timings, and solidified any other plans they had for their special day. This pre-wedding chat allowed me to know Ellis and Aimee a bit more and it helped to capture their personalities vividly in the photos.
&nbsp;
Upon arrival at the Manor Park Country Hotel, I was immediately captivated by the beautiful design of the venue. The hotel had a countryside charm with its sprawling grounds and exquisite interiors. It was the perfect backdrop to capture the essence of the couple's love story.
&nbsp;
The standout part of the day was, undoubtedly, the beautiful ceremony room. With its backdrop of floor-to-ceiling windows, it was the epitome of elegance. The room was filled with heartfelt laughter, tears of joy, and the palpable love between Ellis and Aimee.
&nbsp;
As a photographer, I was able to capture over 600 professionally edited photos throughout the day. From the intimate moments of the bride getting ready, the groom's first look, the exchange of vows, to the celebratory confetti throw and the first dance, every moment was immortalized.
&nbsp;
At the end of the day, I provided them with an online gallery of all their images. They were given full license to print and share these photos, so they and their loved ones can re-live their special day anytime they want.
&nbsp;
Overall, being a part of Ellis and Aimee&rsquo;s wedding was a beautiful experience. Their love for each other was evident in every smile, every glance, every gentle touch, and I am grateful I could capture these moments for them.

Engagement Session at Barry Island

Hollie &amp; Leon

This summer, I had the absolute pleasure of photographing Hollie and Leon's wedding at the stunning Crowcombe Court in Somerset. Nestled in the Quantock Hills, this 18th-century manor house provided the perfect backdrop for a day filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable moments.
&nbsp;
From the moment I arrived, I was struck by the grandeur of Crowcombe Court. Its elegant architecture and meticulously maintained gardens set a romantic tone for the day. Hollie and Leon couldn't have chosen a more picturesque location to celebrate their Wedding.
&nbsp;
The sweeping lawns and ancient trees provided a variety of beautiful settings. Hollie and Leon's chemistry was undeniable, and it made capturing their day so effortless. Each shot reflected their deep connection and the joy of this special day.
&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Photographing Hollie and Leon's wedding at Crowcombe Court was an absolute honour. The venue, the couple, and the incredible attention to detail made it a day to remember. I&rsquo;m so grateful to have been part of their journey and to have captured these moments that they&rsquo;ll cherish forever.

Laura &amp; Shane

Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing Laura and Shane's wedding in the charming village of Redwick, Wales. The historic church, with its ancient stone walls and stained glass windows, provided a stunning backdrop for the couple's special day.
&nbsp;
The ceremony was intimate and heartfelt, filled with genuine emotion as the couple exchanged vows. The bride&rsquo;s flowing dress and the groom&rsquo;s tearful smile made for beautiful, unforgettable moments.
&nbsp;
After the ceremony, we captured some outdoor shots among the lush greenery and quaint village scenery, adding a rustic charm to the photos. The day concluded with joyful celebrations, and I felt privileged to document a love that will be cherished for a lifetime.

Wedding at Redwick - South Wales

“We couldn’t recommend Ben enough. He returned our photos in time for our 1 month anniversary and it made for the best reminder of a lovely day. The photos were incredible and exactly how we had requested he capture the day. We barely noticed him on the day, which is a shame in a way, because he’s such a lovely, personable guy! Thank you so much!!”

Alyn & David

“Fantastic photos for our wedding day. Ben was great, accommodating in every way and captured the day perfectly. He was there for all of the important pictures but you didn't notice he was there. We wanted natural pictures of our day and he captured that and then some.We are so over the moon with our pictures, they capture our special day amazingly. Fantastic price too”

Pam & Paul

“Ben photographed our micro wedding in June and did a fabulous job, we are so pleased with the photos! He listened to what we wanted, but also had some great ideas which made for less decision making by us on the day. The candid shots at the reception were great as they captured the feeling of the day.”

Emily & Rob

Booking Ben was the best decision of the wedding! He is extremely professional, laid back and has an excellent eye for that perfect shot! We could not have hoped for more! We had our photos fully edited and returned to us within 3 weeks - amazingly quick and so responsive and easy to communicate with! Highly recommend Ben if you want your day to be that little bit more special! Thanks again! Ryan & Glenn
