Monmouthshire Wedding Photographer
Documentary wedding photography in Welsh county of Monmouthshire
Here are some samples of my Monmouthshire wedding photography. Each blog post below represents a few favourite images from each Monmouthshire wedding that I have photographed recently. This area of the Principality contains the towns of Abergavenny, Monmouth and Chepstow and is the south east county of Wales. Despite its proximity to the Valleys its rolling landscape survived relatively unscarred from the industrial revolution. Instead this part of the historic Welsh Marches remained primarily farm land, leading to it world wide reputation for quality food produce. Within this leafy green country of Wales, lies some marvellous wedding venues, such as the Angel Hotel, Caer Llan, Llansantffraed Court, Llanvihangel Court, St Tewdrics House and the sprawling Glanusk Estate. My approach to wedding photography has a strong ethos of allowing the happy couple to enjoy the day. I aim to provide candid and emotive photographs without intruding into the natural flow of the day.
So if you are currently planning your wedding, and looking for a Monmouthshire wedding photographer who can capture your day with natural and emotive imagery, please do not hesitate to get in touch. My approach to wedding photography is friendly yet unobtrusive, designed to let you enjoy your day whilst I capture the essence with an understated reportage aesthetic. I work tirelessly to please my clients and so very proud of the feedback I hear from client comments;
“They’re absolutely incredible!! I can’t stop looking at them we’re honestly in love with them.Thank you so much for capturing the day so beautifully, I knew the photos would be gorgeous but they’ve completely blown me away honestly!”
