Devon wedding venue Rockbeare Manor venue in Exter, has to be one of my favourite Devon venues. The venue is elegant and offers a spacious ‘getting ready’ room for bride and groom, stunning bright ceremony area and lovely gardens with breath-taking views of the countryside below.

Chris and Lydia’s relaxed and fun summer wedding at Rockbeare Manor was fantastic even with the rain that would just not stop. Did you know that rain on your wedding day means blessing? Even when the British weather wasn’t great, the space in this wedding venue is big enough to fit all your guests.

When I arrived at Rockbeare, I stared taking photos of Chris and his groomsmen getting ready. Everyone was in great and relaxed mood. Then I moved onto Lydia and her fun loving bridesmaids. The getting ready room is so spaciouse with a stunning balcony offering the most amazing view. This balcony was a great opportunity for some group photos. After a beautiful first look with her dad and emotional wedding ceremony, we managed to escape and do some photos even it was pouring raining. I just let my wedding couple to interact naturally and to capture emotive, fun and authentic moments. Nothing to posy, awkward or forced. I met Chris and Lydia before the wedding to do some prewedding/engament photos so they felt comfortable with me taking some natural photos. The night was finished by a stunning sparklers wedding exit.

There’s something so special about the in-between There’s something so special about the in-between moments 🤍

The guests mingling with glasses in hand, warm cuddles between family members, friends deep in conversation, kids running around with pure joy, and of course… the dance floor magic once the music kicks in ✨

I know my couples are always busy — hugging loved ones, catching up with guests, soaking in every second of their day. And while they’re wrapped up in all that beautiful chaos, I’m quietly capturing everything happening around them.

Those little moments they didn’t even see.
The laughs they didn’t hear.
The hugs they didn’t realise were happening.

My approach is always discreet — most guests don’t even realise I’m there. That’s when the real, natural moments unfold. No posing. No interruption. Just genuine connection.

And without fail, my couples are always so grateful when they see those candid photos — the surprises from moments they would have otherwise missed 🥹

Because your wedding day isn’t just about the big moments… it’s about everything happening in between. 💫
Thank you so much @simonklewisphotography for asking me to second shoot for you.

Newly engaged? 💍✨ If you said YES over the festiv Newly engaged? 💍✨

If you said YES over the festive season — huge congratulations!
Not sure where to begin with wedding planning? Don’t worry, you’re not alone.
Here are 3 simple tips to help you kick things off with confidence 🤍

1. Talk vision before details
Before venues and dresses, sit down together and chat about what you both want. Big or small? Formal or relaxed? Local or destination? Getting aligned early saves so many headaches later.

2. Set a rough budget (and priorities)
You don’t need exact numbers yet—just a realistic range and what matters most to you (venue, food, photography, party vibes). Spend where it counts, stress less everywhere else.

3. Lock in your guest list & date window
A rough guest count helps everything else fall into place, especially venues. Pick a season or a couple of possible dates rather than one exact day—it gives you flexibility and momentum.

Happy Valentine’s Day ❤️✨ To the couples who are Happy Valentine’s Day ❤️✨

To the couples who are newly engaged, counting down to “I do,” or simply soaking in this season of love — today is a celebration of your story.

As a wedding photographer, I’m lucky enough to witness the way you look at each other when no one else is watching, the happy tears, the belly laughs, and the quiet in-between moments that mean everything.

If you’re saying “I do” this year, I’d be honored to tell your story.

🐶💍 Should You Bring Your Dog to Your Wedding? I’v 🐶💍 Should You Bring Your Dog to Your Wedding?

I’ve photographed some truly heart-melting moments with couples and their four-legged best friends. Having your dog there can add personality, emotion and a whole lot of joy to your day — but it does take a little planning.

Here are five important things to consider before bringing your dog to your wedding.

If your pup is family, it’s only natural to want them there on your big day! But before you say “I do” to having your dog at your wedding, here are a few things to consider:

✨ 1. Check the Venue Rules
Not all venues allow pets. Confirm their policy early—and ask about restrictions (size, indoor/outdoor access, etc.).

✨ 2. Consider Your Dog’s Personality
Are they calm and social… or anxious and easily overstimulated? Weddings are loud, busy, and full of strangers. Make sure it’s something they’ll enjoy—not endure.

✨ 3. Assign a Dog Handler
Your maid of honor already has enough to do! Designate a trusted friend, family member, or professional pet sitter to care for your dog during the event.

✨ 4. Plan the Timing
Maybe your pup joins for the ceremony and photos, then heads home before the party starts. It doesn’t have to be all or nothing.

✨ 5. Think About the Details
Water, shade, bathroom breaks, treats, a comfy resting space—plan ahead to keep them happy and safe.

💛 Bonus Tip: Include them in special ways—custom cocktail napkins, signature drinks named after them, cake toppers, or a cute “dog of honor” bandana!

At the end of the day, it’s about what feels right for you and your furry best friend.

PS: I am a massive dog lover, so if you take your dog to your wedding, I will be super excited to meet him/her.

Rainy wedding photos can be stunning—you just need Rainy wedding photos can be stunning—you just need to work with the weather instead of fighting it. Here’s how to manage a wet wedding day and still walk away with photos you’ll love forever ☔📸

Some of the most award-winning wedding photos happen in the rain. Light drizzle looks magical on camera, especially backlit.

Bring the right umbrellas - Clear umbrellas are the gold standard (faces + outfits stay visible).

Accept the rain early—don’t spend the day hoping it stops.

Laugh about it. Guests feed off your energy. Remember: no one sees “ruined plans.” They see two people getting married.

A calm, joyful couple always photographs beautifully—rain or shine.
