“The photos are absolutely brilliant, thank you again so much for capturing our special day.”
It was lovely to be back at Caswell House, one of our favourite wedding venues, for the wedding of Lauren and Dean. Caswell House is a gorgeous Cotswolds wedding venue; on the edge of Witney, Oxfordshire, it offers an exclusive use wedding venue. Parts of Caswell House date back to 1485, and today this lovely Cotwolds wedding venue consists of an L-shaped layout, with the longest site being a indoor barn for a ceremony and/or wedding breakfast, whilst the smaller side is a bar and sitting area. Caswell House also has two, well separated areas for both a bride and a groom to get ready. There is also on site accommodation.
This was our first visit to Caswell House since the easing of Covid-19 restrictions, and it was delightful to see the gardens and lawn area looking better than ever. Sam, as usual, started her day with the bride, Lauren getting ready with her bridesmaids, whilst I met up with Dean and the guys in the old stables. Lauren and Dean were blessed with a beautiful day, and so opted to have their ceremony outside. As is normal for us, Sam and I stayed photographing through the day until an hour after first dance; looking for special candid moments whilst of course making sure we provided the couple and their family with the more formal shots as required. It was also wonderful to work with Rebecca, the Wedding Coordinator for the day, who made sure everything ran smoothly, and was great fun on the day.

“They were more than we could have ever hoped for. Both Sam and Steve were incredibly personable and made everyone at ease throughout the day.
The photos were incredible and gave a real sense of intimacy. They also make sure to take as many natural pictures as opposed to lots of posed ones; this not only makes for some stunning pictures but also made sure no one was bored waiting for me and my now wife to finish up our pictures.
The care they put into their work is by far their best asset, they kept in regular contact, nothing seemed too much and even the aftercare of getting the finished photos has been amazing.
If we could give more than 5 stars we would!””
Samantha and I were delighted to be asked by Zoe and James to be their wedding photographers for their lovely Hyde Barn Wedding, near Stow on the Wold. When we met Zoe and James, it was clear that their idea of wedding photography was the same as ours; unobtrusive, informal and relaxed. So, it was with much excitement that we headed off on a lovely early Summer morning to the Cotswolds, to the lovely location in Gloucestershire.
Hyde Barn is the quintessential Cotswold Barn wedding location, with beautiful gardens, and lovely decor. As this was a rare sunny June day in 2016, Zoe and James were able to have their wedding ceremony outdoors, with the legal part taking place within an enclosed structure, as is the law in the UK.
As both Zoe and James were getting ready at the venue (although of course is separate rooms!), Samantha and I were able to work independently at the same location, covering all aspects of the day from getting ready, through to the main ceremony and the speeches. As documentary wedding photographers, we then continued photographing throughout the day, into the evening, and the fantastic partying at the end of the celebrations.
Below are some photos from their lovely wedding.
