North Devon Coast Wedding

Ellen & Joe's Intimate North Devon Coast Wedding: A Day of Love, Light, and Golden Memories

Yes bring on the warmth! I know everyone Is moaning about the British summer but so far for me this year every wedding I have had has been good weather including this golden lit day of dreams!

Ellen and Joe's wedding was a heartfelt celebration of love, surrounded by their closest friends and family on the stunning North Devon coast. As a local photographer, capturing their special day was a joy, especially with the magnificent golden hour lighting that graced us at the beach. The day was filled with beautiful moments, laughter, and the serene backdrop of the coastline.

A Cozy Celebration

Ellen and Joe opted for a small, intimate wedding, focusing on the people who mean the most to them. The North Devon coast provided the perfect setting for their cozy celebration. The natural beauty of the area, with its rugged cliffs and expansive beaches, added a timeless charm to their special day.

The Ceremony

The ceremony was a touching affair, held in a quaint local venue Ocean Kave that perfectly suited the couple's relaxed and personal style. Surrounded by their nearest and dearest, Ellen and Joe exchanged vows with the sound of the waves gently crashing in the background. The atmosphere was filled with love, making it easy to capture the genuine emotions of the day.

Golden Hour Magic

One of the highlights of Ellen and Joe's wedding was the golden hour photoshoot at the beach. I took the couple to the beach ss the sun began to set, the light transformed the scene into a breathtaking palette of warm hues. This magical time of day always adds a special touch to wedding photos, and it was no different for Ellen and Joe.

Driftwood and Dreams

We were fortunate to find some beautiful bleached driftwood that had washed up on the shore. It provided a unique and stunning element for the photos. The combination of the golden light, the natural textures of the driftwood, and the joy radiating from Ellen and Joe made for some truly captivating images. These photos are a testament to the beauty of nature and the power of the sea and love they share.

The Art of Editing

A lighter, warm edit was chosen to complement the tones and colors of the day. It's fascinating how the same beach can look different each time I shoot there, requiring a tailored editing style to bring out the best in each moment. The light, the tones, and even the couple's clothing all play a part in determining the final look of the photos. This is something I am going to touch more upon in a different entry.

As a photographer, I believe in creating a vision that reflects each couple's unique story. Whether you have a specific editing style in mind or prefer to leave it to me, I'm committed to delivering images that you will cherish forever. Ellen and Joe's wedding was a perfect example of how different factors come together to create a cohesive and beautiful narrative through photography.

A Day to Remember

Ellen and Joe's wedding on the North Devon coast was a day filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable moments. The intimate setting, the stunning golden hour photos, and the joy of being surrounded by close friends and family made it a truly special occasion.

Ideal Couple

This for me has nothing to do with the way the couple look or styling or anything like that. Rather Ellen came to me and expressed it was much more important to her to get people hugging and having a good time rather than spending lots of time on posed shots. This suites my style and approach thus making us a perfect match. More than ever where some couples who are heavily influences by tick tock and intagram and more concerned with the way things look rather than relaxing and enjoying themselves, I can tell you after 10 years shooting weddings…THE BEST pictures are the ones where you do not try and control everything and enjoy your day as they are the most authentic representation of yourself!

Thank You
