Kevin did the photos at our wedding and they have come out stunningly. He was so chilled to work with, great at making sure we got all the right shots, lots of fab suggestions and was very patient when the timing of the day went a bit awry.
We can't recommend him enough. If you want photos that are beautifully set, great mix of moods and really capture the fun and joy of your wedding, definitely book Kevin in! - Rufus & Tabitha -
An intimate laid back wedding that was overflowing with love and laughter.
A gorgeous late summer wedding day in the Cotswolds is what every wedding photographer loves. I’ve worked at the Cripps Stone Barn wedding venue on the outskirts of Cheltenham numerous times and always love shooting there. With stunning views of the Cotswold Hills and interesting rustic backdrops I always have a smile on face when I get a booking there. Rufus and Tabitha decided on a smaller intimate wedding ceremony in the barn with just their closest family and friends before celebrating with over 120 guests who arrived a little later. Making full use of the outside space and the warm late summer sun it really did feel like a proper celebration. I couldn’t have asked for a more friendly laid back couple to work with!
