Llantwit Major Beach Portrait Photography

At last, we finally got Gemma and her family along with her brother and girlfriend together for their ‘on location’ Family Beach Portrait Photography!  It had been a grey though dry day but when we got to the beach the sun was peeking through the clouds throwing out fab rays on to the sea!  Alfie & Isla loved running along the sand, though Isla was desperate to run in to the sea!  We did a combination of images including one of all six of them for Gemma’s Mum & Dad as a Christmas present – but sshh they don’t know about it!! Fab idea!!  The tide was out so Andy was able to get some reflection shots at the beach in Llantwit Major, we love to photograph at this beach as it provides a cool backdrop for Portrait Photography and includes the element of Landscape Photography too.  The golden cliffs provide an alternative to the sea as a backdrop so we did some more there too.

Cardiff City Hall Wedding Photography

Cardiff City Hall wedding Photography

The fab wedding day of Stacey & Stephen started at The City Hall, Cardiff for an intimate Civil Ceremony in front of their close family & friends.  Stephen, looking very smart in his Ted Baker suit and their son Rhys, their Page Boy in a matching suit and waistcoat.  They arrived along with his family including his Grandad and his Best Man, Craig.  As it was raining initially we managed to take a few photographs under cover just outside the entrance to the City Hall.  Shortly after which Stacey and her Dad, Terry, arrived, driven by a close friend Mike.  Stacey looked gorgeous in her dress from Berkertex Brides and she was joined by their daughter Jennifer who, with Jessica were the Flower Girls and her best friend Katie was her Bridesmaid.  They all looked stunning in white & red, the colour theme for the day.  It was an emotional ceremony, with lots of cheers for the lovely couple!  The rain had stopped and the sun was even trying to shine so we walked over to the fountains and took some family & friends photographs before whisking Stacey & Stephen over to the picturesque Museum steps for some photographs of just the two of them.  The reception venue in Rhiwbina Recreational Club was almost unrecognisible as it had been decorated beautifully with organza and fairy lights and was the location for a gorgeous wedding breakfast and fab speeches.  The magician kept the children entertained before the disco started and the dancefloor didn’t empty after Stacey and Stephen had taken to the floor for their first dance!  It was a very relaxed day, just what they wanted!

Wedding Photography New House Country Hotel Cardiff

Katy & Mike travelled from their home in Oxford for their lovely wedding in St Isan’s Church, Llanishen and The New House Country Hotel, Thornhill.  Since the romantic proposal on Swyncombe Down in Oxfordshire Katy and her Mum, Sheila, had arranged the wedding contacting local suppliers to enhance the day.  Such as the beautiful flowers from The Flower Lodge in Rhiwbina which had the added touch of sprigs of Rosemary in them!  It was very calm at Katy’s parent’s house when we arrived, hair had been done and Katy was applying her own make up before getting in to her stunning Bridal gown from High Society in Cowbridge with the help of her Mum and 2 Bridesmaids. Two cars from Kennedy Classics transported the Bridal party to the church where we had gone ahead to photograph Mike with his family, his Best Man and Ushers (all of the Ushers were family members too!).  It was at this point that we met the gorgeous Flower Girls and Page Boy.  It was a misty, damp day but everyone was smiling and it didn’t stop the guests enjoying themselves.  After the lovely ceremony there was an array of umbrellas and lots of photographs. We even managed a confetti shot under the litch gate.  At the New House Country Hotel we photographed the families in the Wyndham suite where the reception was and took some fab shots of Katy and Mike in their Bridal Suite.  Luckily it then had time to dry up outside so we went to the amazing Sequoia tree in the grounds – one of the tallest of its kind in Wales!  We were lucky enough to be able to enjoy the delicious wedding breakfast with the guests before taking some more photographs of them during the speeches.  The evening was started by the band, Undercover, who played their first dance and got people on the dance floor immediately with their excellent set.  Katy & Mike are now enjoying their honeymoon in Sicily, lucky things!!
