Wedding Photography at the Aviator Hotel, Farnborough

I had the great pleasure of doing wedding photography for Paige and Chris at the Aviator Hotel. My day started at the Aviator, in Farnborough, for photos of both the bride and groom getting ready. The wedding ceremony was at St Mary’s church in Winchfield. The Norman church dates from 1150 and must have hosted countless weddings during its long history.

The service in the historic church was lovely. Afterwards, we took a few photos around the church yard and then it was back to Farnborough for the rest of the day. The Aviator is a really nice modern hotel with some interesting features which make great backdrops for photos.

Here are a few highlights from a very enjoyable days work with a lovely group of people.

Pre-Wedding Photos in Winchfield with Paige & Chris

I met Paige and Chris in Winchfield for some pre-wedding photos a few weeks before their big day. We started at St. Mary’s church, where they would be getting married, and walked along a footpath to the canal.

We had fun taking some photos and discussing plans for the wedding day. Like many people, Paige and Chris were not really comfortable having their photo taken before this photoshoot. This is the main reason I include a pre-wedding photoshoot for my couples. They were a lot more confident after having this photo session and seeing the results. This made them much more comfortable in front of the camera on the big day.

It’s nice to look back on these photos from the summer as I catch up on my blog posts in wintery January! Here are a few of my favourite shots from this pre-wedding photo shoot in Winchfield. Wedding photos from St. Mary’s church and the reception at the Aviator Hotel in Farnborough will be coming soon.

Wedding Photography at Tylney Hall

Tylney Hall wedding venue

Wedding Photography at Tylney Hall with Jane & Neil

I love doing wedding photography at Tylney Hall! It’s definitely one of my favourite venues, so I was obviously delighted when Jane and Neil asked me to capture their special day there in August.

Tylney Hall is a luxury country house hotel at Hook, near Basingstoke. It is certainly one of the most romantic wedding venues in Hampshire. It is an absolute dream location for a wedding photographer with its historic Grade II listed building set in 66 acres of beautiful parkland and gardens. I have had the pleasure of photographing weddings in all of Tylney Hall’s suites over the years. Jane and Neil had their ceremony in the intimate wood panelled Newnham Suite.

We took some group portraits on the balcony overlooking the Italian Gardens. Then the happy couple went for a short walk around the stunning grounds. I tagged along to capture some more photos. There are so many photogenic features in and around Tylney Hall. The stone gazebos provide gorgeous backdrops from multiple angles. The steps leading in and out of the gardens are another one of my favourites. It would be very difficult to run out photo opportunities at this venue.

Jane and Neil were a lovely couple to work with and I thoroughly enjoyed spending the afternoon with them and their guests. Here is a small selection of their photos. I look forward to my next opportunity to do some wedding photography at Tylney Hall.

Basingstoke Wedding Photography – Carmina & Ian

Basingstoke Wedding Photography at the Register Office

I had the pleasure of doing the photography for Carmina and Ian’s Lord of the Rings themed wedding at Basingstoke Register Office. The bride looked stunning in her fairy tale dress and elven styled hair and jewellery. She was given away by her son who was also the ring bearer and wore the one ring around his neck just like the famous hobbit. The groom completed the LOTR look with his elven leaf brooch tie pin.

This wedding was back in August and the weather was a lot warmer than it is now that I’m finally catching up with my blog posts in January. The ceremony was in the lovely bright Wellesley Room at the front of the registry office. After the formalities, the happy couple walked out into the sunshine under a shower of bubbles. This gave me the opportunity for some slightly different shots and also meant that the couple didn’t need to pick lots of confetti from their hair for their formal photos.

We took a few group photos around the front of the register office. Then all the guests went on to the reception, while I took a few more photos of the bride and groom having a walk in the park. Having the Memorial Park right next door to the registration office is perfect for wedding photography when the weather is as good as it was on this day.

Here is a small selection of the photos from this lovely wedding. There is one portrait of the couple on a balcony that you won’t find at the register office or anywhere in the park. With the theme of this wedding, I couldn’t resist doing a special edit with a fantasy background that looks like it might exist somewhere in Middle Earth.

Bartons Mill Wedding Photography

Bartons Mill Wedding Photography with Josie and Josh

Here are a few shots from Josie and Josh’s Bartons Mill wedding photography in July. Bartons Mill is a converted 17th century water mill which was originally known as Old Basing Mill. The venue is just outside Basingstoke in a beautiful countryside setting next to the River Loddon.

With the typical British summer weather forecast of rain, the wedding was held inside the old mill in the lovely ceremony room overlooking the gardens. The rain actually stayed away all day though and the rest of the celebrations took place outside on the covered patio area and the grounds surrounding the venue.

The evening party included some ceilidh dancing which was a lot of fun for the guests and the photographer. Here are a few photos from Josie and Josh’s big day at Bartons Mill.
