Georgia and Tom’s Wedding at Westerham Golf Club
Georgia and Tom celebrated their beautiful wedding at Westerham Golf Club, a stunning wedding venue near Sevenoaks, Kent.
Having photographed a number of weddings here over the years, Westerham Golf Club remains one of my favourite venues. Its rustic interior, combined with the picturesque grounds, provides the perfect setting for both the celebrations and some relaxed couple portraits.
Before their wedding day, Georgia and Tom held a private legal ceremony, allowing one of their close friends to act as their celebrant on the big day. It made for an incredibly personal and emotional ceremony, filled with stories and moments that reflected their journey together.
Following the ceremony and confetti, we headed out onto the golf course, making our way to one of my favourite wooded spots for some relaxed portraits. Afterwards, the newlyweds returned to enjoy plenty of time celebrating with their family and friends.
After the wedding breakfast and speeches, we ventured back outside to make the most of the softer evening light and the quieter golf course, capturing a few more natural portraits before heading back inside. With that, the dancefloor quickly filled and the evening celebrations were well underway.
Here are a few of my favourite moments from their incredible day!
The Crown Lodge Wedding Photography
Jess and Tom’s Wedding at the Crown Lodge
Jess and Tom celebrated their beautiful wedding at the stunning Crown Lodge, nestled above the Wye Downs near Ashford, Kent.
While much of the UK was sweltering in an incredible summer heatwave, the couple and their guests were able to enjoy the glorious sunshine alongside a welcome breeze, thanks to the venue’s elevated location overlooking the Kent countryside.
Jess made a memorable arrival in a 90s VW Golf GTI, which Tom had built himself in the lead-up to the wedding. They exchanged vows during an intimate outdoor ceremony in the woodland, with both their children and dogs playing an important role in the celebrations.
After confetti and a handful of relaxed group photographs, guests made the most of the beautiful weather before heading inside for some fantastic speeches and the wedding breakfast.
The celebrations continued outside with lawn games, including a fiercely contested men vs women tug-of-war! I then stole Jess and Tom away for a few relaxed portraits along the tree-lined driveway before returning them to enjoy the evening festivities and their first dance.
As the sun began to dip towards the horizon, we ventured into the neighbouring meadows—carefully avoiding the resident cows—to capture some beautiful golden hour portraits. With the light fading, the newlyweds headed back to the dancefloor, where the party carried on well into the evening.
Here are a few of my favourite moments from their incredible day!
“We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding day, Matt is such a lovely person and was wonderful to have around on the day. He took such amazing staged and candid photos and got some really lovely natural ones of our kids.
He sent over some sneak peaks immediately after the wedding so we had some lovely pictures to make thank you cards etc with and then had our complete set back within the month!”

Ciaran and Djamila celebrated their fun-filled and emotional wedding at Great Bower Barn, a unique countryside wedding venue near Canterbury, Kent.

After an emotional service surrounded by family and friends, the newlyweds made the journey through the Kent countryside before arriving in style at Great Bower Barn.
Guests made the most of the glorious summer weather, enjoying lawn games, ice cream and plenty of time to relax before heading inside for some brilliant speeches.

Reach Court Farm Wedding - Ethan and Ellie
Ellie and Ethan celebrated their wedding at the beautiful Reach Court Farm, nestled in the village of St Margaret's at Cliffe near Dover, Kent. As a recommended supplier at Reach Court Farm, it's always a pleasure to photograph weddings here, and this one was no exception.
The day began with some rather wet and windy weather as Ellie got ready with her bridal party at a nearby Airbnb. Thankfully, just before the ceremony was due to begin, the rain cleared and revealed blue skies, allowing everyone to enjoy the outdoor ceremony exactly as planned.
Although further heavy showers were forecast throughout the day, the weather held off just long enough for guests to celebrate with an outdoor confetti throw before everyone made a quick dash for cover! It certainly didn't dampen the atmosphere, with heartfelt speeches, plenty of laughter and a fantastic wedding breakfast creating an unforgettable afternoon.
When it came to their couple portraits, Ellie and Ethan embraced the unpredictable Kent weather. Armed with an umbrella and a great sense of humour, we headed outside to capture some relaxed, natural photographs around the beautiful grounds of Reach Court Farm. The soft post-rain light created some gorgeous conditions and proved that you don't need perfect sunshine to create beautiful wedding photographs.
As evening arrived, everyone gathered for the first dance before the dance floor quickly filled and the celebrations continued late into the night.
If you're planning your own Reach Court Farm wedding, it's a fantastic venue offering beautiful gardens, charming countryside views and plenty of opportunities for relaxed, natural wedding photography whatever the weather.
