 Here is two of the sweetest people getting married on a BEAUTIFUL sunny day in May, and if the calculations off the top of my head are correct, I hadn’t at this point been to The Apple Farm since 2017?! 🍏 Before that though the morning bridal prep included a very unhappy Bonnie the dog not understanding why she couldn’t sit on Lucy’s wedding dress, an unfortunate incident with Lucy’s dad’s flipflop and bird poo, and a wonderful Bridesmaid doing her duty and bringing Lucy her morning fix of Cookie Crisp and milk for breakfast! The ceremony was beautiful with the Bride and Grooms own written vows, and day included lots of happy tears, lawn games, evening sparklers and general chilled lovely-ness, what more could a wedding photographer ask for? 👏 Thank you so much Lucy & Joshua for being an absolute treat and joy to work with, I wish you both so much happiness in your married life together ♥️ The Apple Farm Wight Ribbon Make up & Hair by Lynsey-Marie Isle of Wight Beauty Cathy's Bloomers Ryan Selby vidiographer Gems Bridalwear Pure Nails Alterations by Tara Holly |

Onto the wedding, which was a gorgeous sunny Saturday at the end of September. James & Emma had a warm & relaxed small wedding at Ventnor Botanic Garden, with 12 guests and 4 dogs! 🥰 Whisky, Lola, Holly (the dog not me!) and Maisy were even put down on the list of ‘group photos’ to have their own group photo, which of course I loved!
James & Emma had set up the night before which included putting up all the fairy lights, and in the evening as it got dark they went down to sit with their dog Maisy and admire their handy-work, so cute!
Emma forgot to bring her bouquet with her for the ceremony and her lovely Mum went back to the accommodation to get it after the ceremony for the photos 😂 Emma’s Mum also made all the bunting that was put around the restaurant for dinner.
Also I had to include a photo of their wedding rings made by Ashcroft Jewellery Design - HOW COOL ARE THEY?!
Maybe because James & Emma are such lovely people with great guests, and maybe because it was such a small wedding, I felt so honoured to be there and to capture their wedding, thank you both it was a joy! ♥️

Beth & Jack had a beautiful wedding which felt very intimate at her parents place - Whitwell Station Holiday Homes! 🚂
After Beth & Jack did their first look (closely monitored by Lola the dog) we went to Colwell Bay for photos, before going back to get the two of them hitched! Lola was also the ring bearer and did a flawless job 🐶
The day was sunny and very windy indeed, but I think the wind was needed to keep those rain clouds away, so I’m all for that!
Before the speeches Jack did a quiz for all the guests asking questions about his and Beth’s relationship, the winner getting a bottle of wine made at Whitwell Station. A lot of laughs and competitiveness took place during this, such a great personal touch.
Thank you both so much for asking me to photograph your day ♥️

If you need proof that planting a Cumberland sausage the night before your wedding will give you great weather, and that having a wedding full of love and fun is totally gorgeous, then check out Sophie & Toms wedding 🎉
Their engagement shoot was such a joy to do, and we all had such a bloody laugh, and chatted about so many different things when we went to Ventnor Downs and Compton Beach for photos.

Lana started her day with the lads in Ventnor at I started my day at East Afton Farmhouse.
Any wedding with TONS of colourful flowers and Lord of the Rings quotes mentioned multiple times throughout the day, is a brilliant day in my book!
On a video call a few years back, Sophie was ordered by her Nana to go out and find herself a boyfriend 😂 and lucky for Sophie & Tom that lead them to finding each other (she’s throwing confetti in a photo further down!)
After the ceremony before we went back to East Afton we went to Compton Bay for photos as planned which was WINDY AF. I think the windiest I’ve ever witnessed there, so we did not spend more than 5 minutes there before leaving for East Afton in one piece!
Thank you both for asking us to photograph your joyful and beautiful wedding day ♥️

This wedding was an absolute pleasure from start to finish 🙌 I photographed Jonny proposing to Lauren back in 2021, and it felt so special to me and a real honour to see them again 3 years later tie the knot (literally!) with Lana by my side too.
These two had an absolute corker of a day with the weather, and considering it started raining on our journey home they were even more lucky really! 🍀
This wedding at Church Farm Tithe Barn had so much laughter and joy, with a great ceremony by Magpie Nest Ceemonies and the day coordinated to a tee by Stacey Page Weddings 👌
Every detail was so beautifully done, including the King Protea’s in the bouquets and on the tables, a tribute to Lauren’s South African family.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for asking us to photograph your wedding day Lauren & Jonny. It felt so special to see you again after all that time 🙏♥️

A whirlwind of non-tradition, family & friends, banter, and of course love, Tammy & Neil had such a brilliant wedding day, and it was such a beautiful day to near the end of my season. 💙
Due to a mistake when ordering confetti canons there were multiple blasts through the day 😆 when the two newlyweds walked down the aisle, for their arrival at the reception venue Moocow and during their first dance 🎉 and yes I think it made everyone jump every time..
The day also included the first “First Touch” I’ve ever done, which is a bit like a first look but the couple don’t actually see each other. I found a nice little spot just by the bar at the beautiful Pinnacle Suites Hotel where Tammy & neil got ready that morning and I have to say the pictures are so cute 😁
Tammy & Neil of course wanted to get married and celebrate their love, but they didn’t want a massive guest list or too much fuss, and they definitely succeeded with that 👌
Thank you so much both for everything, you are a great couple and your day was gorgeous, I wish you both all the best ♥️
