Bournemouth Church Wedding Reception at Royal Bath Hotel, Sherri-Louise and Geoff

Sherri-Louise and Geoffs Bournemouth Wedding with reception at the beautiful Royal Bath Hotel above Bournemouth Beach was a pleasure to photograph. The ceremony took place at a church just around the corner from Sherri-Louises parents house at Moordown St Johns, the church there has the most amazing light coming in from a large ornate window at the back of the church.

We knew Sherri-Louise and Geoff wanted to use Bournemouth Beach for the wedding photos so not long after arriving at the hotel we nipped down to the beach for the romantic alone shots.

Teri and I love photographing weddings at the Royal Bath Hotel, the hotel has very high ceilings in the classic style of a grand Victorian hotel. We made use of the entrance hall with it's central chandelier for some cool inside shots before the couple went in for the evening reception in the grand ballroom.

Congratulations!! :)

Dorset Engagement Photography, Emma and Geoff

Getting together with Emma and Geoff for their engagement session meant going into the 'real' Dorset, out towards Dorchester and into the countryside. They are very much rooted in the country so it made perfect sense to use Geoff's farm for their e-session!

As well Emma and Geoff we wanted to include some of their animals, Zippy is Geoff's working dog and amazingly well trained (Zippy is very apt as she didn't stop moving!) and Emma's horse made a quick appearence.

When we first met with Emma and Geoff there were two turkeys, one called Bernard and the other called Matthews. Sadly Matthews did not make it past Christmas but Bernard was very friendly and wouldn't leave Teri alone! :)

Lulworth Beach Pre Wedding Photography With Charlie and Hay Ming

Charlie and Hay Ming are based over near Dorchester and one of their favourite places is Lulworth Cove, we met up there for some fun beach images then on to the second location, a group of deserted houses near to Lulworth Castle.

The weather started off as bright sun and blue skies, the next moment it was hailing and we all beat a hasty retreat to the pub in Lulworth while the hail passed.

Looking forward to seeing Charlie and Hay Ming at the end of May, Wedding ceremony at Holy Trinity Church in Dorchester then on to an amazing private Dorset Manor House wedding venue near to the Cerne Giant, very cool, can't wait! :)
