Charlotte and Olly hosted their wedding in the idyllic coastal town of Newport in Pembrokeshire, West Wales in May 2024. Located on the estuary of River Nevern it is the quintessential sailing town.

Kate and Henry’s September wedding in 2022 took place at the Pembrokeshire village of Newport. The amount of work to organise and host a wedding in a private garden is not to be under estimated. The trick is I think is to trust your suppliers to their craft once the day begins, allowing you to…
The interesting thing about photographing a wedding on the coast of West Wales, is that if you do not like the weather, wait five minutes! On today, the 25th June 2022, the weather conditions seemed to change just about every five minutes, between blustery wind, down pouring rain and gorgeous warming sunshine. In the morning…
Towards the end of May in 2022, I travelled to the West Wales town of Aberystwyth in Ceredigion to photograph the wedding of Emily and Gareth.

The summer of 2020 will be remembered for a lot of things, not all good, but one silver lining is the small handful of weddings that persevered.

Dating back to the early 12th century Cardigan Castle sits in the middle of the town with majestic views of the River Teifi in West Wales.
