I’m sure most women who got married traditionally will agree that walking down the aisle is pretty much THE most nerve-wracking moment of the whole day. It’s the moment when everything comes together, the bride & groom see each other for the first time and the marriage ceremony begins.
I was very excited about this wedding as it was in many ways a first. Firstly I have not photographed a wedding ceremony in St Saviours in Larkhall before and – wow! – did this church not disappoint! And the priest started his sermon with a set of pretty funny jokes, who would have expected that. Secondly Grace and Tim celebrated at beautiful Priston Mill (in the water mill) so that ticked all the boxes for a fabulous and well organised wedding venue. Grace looked stunning, we took one of the best bride/groom/bridesmaids/ushers shots to date (the jumping shot, look at the faces) and the groom had a gun put to his head at some point. I did not get bored! Congratulations Grace & Tim!

This was another one of my favourite weddings last summer, the wonderful day that Sheryl and Cornelius got married at Berwick Lodge in Bristol! I met Sheryl through a wedding planner that I had met at a wedding fair and it was quickly apparent how well we got on and that we were (also) a great match – Cornelius is German like me and therefore a bilingual photographer was a must have.
I met up with Sheryl in the morning while she had her hair done at a local hair dresser. When then returned to Berwick Lodge where both her and Cornelius got ready, in separate locations of course. The ceremony was emotional, the drinks reception full of magic from a very charming young magician, the speeches outstanding and whitty and the evening filled with music and candy and photo booths and freshly drawn caricatures – wedding bliss!!
So if you are getting married at Berwick Lodge or anywhere else in the South West and you are still looking for a creative wedding photographer, then please feel free to contact me.
How to start writing about Kate and James’ spring wedding at Priston Mill? I have so many beautiful memories from that day. The most moving aspect was how Kate’s dad, who dad died many years ago, was such an important part of this wedding. He was remembered in so many ways and details, he would have been proud. Many tears were shed but many more laughters were laughed and life & love was celebrated to the maximum.
I had met Kate and James a very long time before this wedding so when the day came and spring showed itself from its best side with beautiful sunshine and dramatic clouds, everyone couldn’t have been happier. The ceremony was a very happy, the speeches emotional but also very funny and the venue was just beautiful! I had fun with two little penguins (Kate’s favourite bird – did you know they mate for life?) and the wedding rings and we took some lovely portraits with the rolling hills in it. Now enjoy this rather large selection of photographs from beautiful Priston Mill.
I hope you enjoyed this series of photographs from Kate and James’ wedding day. If you are getting married at Priston Mill or anywhere else in the South West and would like to find out more about me and what I have to offer then please send me an email to betty.bhandari@gmx.net or use my contact form.
Serine & Harry came all the way from Singapore to spent some time in London and Bath. As they are getting married in Malaysia this spring, they got in touch with me for some engagement portraits that incorporated many of Bath’s beautiful sights. To make things easy I picked them up from their hotel and we drove to the Circus, the Royal Crescent, the Holburne Museum, Alexadra Park and Sham Castle. It was a sunny, but very cold day and poor Serine was putting on a brave face, wearing only a thin white dress. And while driving around from location to location we realised that I spent years working with Serine’s flatmate’s friend Jerry back in London – the world is so small sometimes!
