Winter Weddings

Gloucestershire and Cotswolds Wedding Photography

Goodness how I love a winter wedding!

The cold crispness of the days. The snowfall that creates a hushed gentle ambience to the day. Even the wind and rain and stormy skies that can create such exqusite and dramatic backdrops for my images.

With this in mind I thought I’d share with you some gorgeous winter wedding evening images.

All too often this time of day is overlooked. And yes as a photographer you absolutely have to understand how to control off camera flash, and how to light your subjects correctly. But my goodness its worth all of the training and practice for images like this…

What an incredibly romantic image taken at the wedding of Meg and Alex at Huntstile Organic Farm late in the evening (above). Lit only from the front using a speed light on an extendable pole to create this softly lit image with their entwined shadows behind them and ensuring that the string lights remained visible and glowing a soft warm colour.

It might have been cold but Lauren and Paul managed to brave the freezing temperatures for a winter wonderland evening image at Manor by the Lake (above).

This really was a cold wintery snowy day for Leonie and Richard at Wyck Hill House (above)!

Another stunning image for Lauren and Paul in the cold crisp winter evening air at Manor by the Lake (above).

Jules and Dan braved the November evening at Glenfall House for this gorgeous photograph (above).

A stunning image for Becca and Andy on their December wedding day at Stanbrook Abbey. You can see how cold it is! (above).

And as the rain fell on Clare’s and Roy’s wedding day at Cripps Barn they braved it for the shot! (above).

Thank you to all of my Clients for working with me to get these stunning images. Images that are bespoke to them and their wedding days. Moments in time to treasure…
