Thank you so much for such a kind and thoughtful review—it honestly means the world to me. I’m so glad the planning meeting helped you feel relaxed and confident going into the day, and that everything ran smoothly so you could just enjoy every moment.
It was an absolute joy getting to know you both and to be part of such a special chapter in your lives. Hearing that you felt so well looked after (and that I’ve made friends with the children, pets and the dancefloor crew!) makes me so happy.
Thank you again for trusting me with your day.

Lauren & Richard’s Summer Wedding at Upwaltham Barns, West Sussex.
Two venues, one wonderfully relaxed summer wedding, and a day where the love seemed to grow as the celebrations unfolded. Lauren & Richard began at Edes House in Chichester, sharing their vows surrounded by their closest family and friends before heading out onto the lawn for drinks, laughter and a brilliant ‘bubble’ send-off.
A gorgeous vintage car, provided by a family friend, then whisked them away from the city and into the South Downs to Upwaltham Barns, where more guests were waiting and the summer party really began. Pimm’s, craft beer and canapés set the tone for an afternoon and evening that felt wonderfully easy-going and completely centred around family, happiness and fun.
Lauren’s favourite colour, teal, ran throughout the day, softened with pretty peach tones in the flowers and details. Against the warm brickwork of Edes House and the natural greens and golden countryside at Upwaltham, it created a fresh, colourful palette that suited their love of the outdoors perfectly.
There was so much personality to capture throughout the celebrations – relaxed moments with family and friends, creative groups, plenty of laughter during the speeches and a feast from Nibbles2Nosh, finished with a dessert bar and fabulous brownie-stack wedding cake. Then it was onto a choreographed first dance before the dance floor filled for the evening.
And amongst all that energy, we stole Lauren & Richard away for a little time together. Up on the iconic Upwaltham hill, the late summer sun dropped behind the South Downs, bathing the fields in golden light. Lauren’s veil caught the breeze and suddenly everything felt wonderfully quiet – a chance to create something atmospheric and romantic while still keeping that relaxed, outdoorsy feel that had been woven through their whole day.

Laura & Josh’s Summer Wedding at The Guild Hall Chichester, West Sussex.
Set within the historic walls of Chichester, Laura & Josh’s wedding at The Guildhall in Priory Park had all the character and atmosphere of a church ceremony, but with a wonderfully relaxed summer feel. Local to their home, it was a setting that felt just right for a day centred around the people closest to them.
Soft sage greens, peachy florals and natural tones worked beautifully against the aged stone and historic architecture. Laura’s vibrant red hair brought its own fabulous splash of colour, while Josh and the boys’ tweed, green suits tied everything together with an easy, summery style.
Laura & Josh chose our Micro Wedding Coverage, keeping their photography focused around the ceremony and intimate drinks reception. This gave us time to capture the important moments; their vows, the coming together of their families, those all-important group photographs and, just as importantly, the relaxed moments in between.
After the ceremony, everyone spilled out into the sunshine of Priory Park, chatting and celebrating over a glass of champagne beneath the trees. There was something lovely about the contrast between the grandeur and history inside The Guildhall and the informal, outdoorsy atmosphere beyond its doors.
For their couple portraits, we made the most of both. The ancient stonework, arches and textures gave us wonderful opportunities to be a little more artistic, creating photographs that not only capture Laura & Josh together but also showcase the character of the place they chose to marry — including a few striking images designed to look rather special on their walls at home.
