We cannot recommend Rachael enough!

She truly has a gift for capturing moments as they naturally unfold. She perfectly documented all the emotions, joy, and little details of our day in a way that felt genuine and true to us.

Favourite Wedding Venues

One of the things I love most about being a Hertfordshire wedding photographer is how many incredible venues there are nearby, each with its own personality. Whether you’re planning a big party or something small and intimate, Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire and London are full of amazing backdrops for your day.

FUN IN THE COUNTRY

If you’re dreaming of rolling fields, rustic barns and that relaxed rural vibe, Tewin Bury Farm in Welwyn and Lodge Farm near Hitchin are both gorgeous choices.

FESTIVAL VIBES

For couples who want a more laid-back, festival-style wedding, Vanstone Park near Hitchin is a brilliant spot for something colourful and fun, or for a lower key venue with a pub vibe, try Old Luxters Barn near Henley.

UNIQUE AND UNFORGETTABLE

If you’re looking for something that really stands out, the Bucks Railway Centre in Aylesbury and King’s Chapel in Amersham are both amazing venues with bags of personality.

A TOUCH OF ROMANCE

For a touch of English character, try Notley Abbey in Haddenham, while Chenies Manor near Chorleywood combines countryside charm with elegant spaces.

Wherever you choose to celebrate – countryside, festival, grand, or quirky – I’d love to hear all about your wedding plans – get in touch here.

PHOTOGRAPHY THAT IS

KIND
