Claire and Adam's Intimate Wedding at the Secret Gardens, Ashford

Claire and Adam held their specail day with their closest friends and family at the Secret Gardens, situated just on the outskirts of Ashford.

Claire and Adam held their special day with their closest friends and family at the Secret Gardens, situated just on the outskirts of Ashford.

Following bridal prep at the stunning Five Bells Inn, these guys held a small service in the tranquil and colourful gardens of the venue.

The weather was perfect for this and shortly afterwards, everyone was seated in the Glass House (my personal favourite spot at this venue) for an afternoon tea.

As the sunset, everyone enjoyed these idealic gardens, whilst I managed to grab the couple for a short, yet relaxed, newly wed session.

Matt’s photos from both our engagement shoot and our wedding look fantastic! We were both nervous about having our photo taken and Matt really helped us to relax and have fun. Everyone commented on the day how lovely he was and it was a source of much fun trying to spot which bush or chair he was hiding behind to make sure he captured everything as candidly as possible! The whole day went by in such a blur so it’s amazing to have so many gorgeous photos of all the special moments to look back on. Thank you Matt, we would recommend you to anyone!

Harriet and James’ Wedding

This was without question one of the most relaxed, chilled and laid-back weddings I have had the pleasure of capturing.

This was without question one of the most relaxed, chilled and laid-back weddings I have had the pleasure of capturing. When I caught-up with Harriet and James a few weeks before their big day, they said that they just wanted me to capture the moments as they happened (no awkward posing with people being forced to say cheese). The weather was absolutely perfect for this winter wedding and the Secret Garden’s rustic and vintage vibe matched perfectly with everything, from the bridesmaids dresses to the flowers.

These guys held their service at the stunning chapel and the weather was perfect for wintery walk with the newly weds around the gardens. The top off the perfect day, there was a sparkler exit followed by some smashing dance moves to 80s pop!

“Thank you so much, we love them! You have really captured the happiness of the day”
