The Rectory Wedding Photography

Yesterday was my fifth wedding of the season and I now have room in my 2010 diary for just two more weddings.  It was the hottest day of the year so far and once again I was at the wonderful Malmesbury Abbey for the wedding of Sophie & Chris.

Malmesbury Abbey is such a wonderful location for a wedding.  Not only because it is in my hometown, but because of the wonderful history and architecture woven into the very fabric of the building.

After the service, we whisked the four miles up the road to The Rectory Hotel and Restaurant.  This quintessential of English venues was, on St. George’s weekend, host to one of the most quintessential of English wedding receptions….. complete with cricket and croquet!

Here are a selection of my favourites from the first edit.  As always, please click to enlarge and please feel free to leave any comments.

Malmesbury Abbey Wedding Photography

So yesterday, I photographed the wonderful wedding of Steph and Tom at the magnificent Malmesbury Abbey, followed by a reception at The Old Bell

Malmesbury Abbey is one of the oldest in country, first built in 676ad and The Old Bell is reputedly England’s oldest hotel so the wedding was set in one of the most beautiful settings.

The Abbey is less than one minutes walk from my home, and The Old Bell is even closer so it was a double pleasure to photograph Steph and Tom’s wedding.  It was a wonderful wedding, on a glorious Cotswold April day.  Steph looked stunning in her wedding dress and Tom also looked pretty dapper ;-) .

As always, all of these shots were taking in a reportage style.  With the exception of any planned “group” shots, I shoot purely with a photojournalist approach so each shot is a true moment and memory of the actual wedding day.

Here are a small selection of some of my favourite images from the initial edit.  As usual, please click to see the larger version.
