After lunch, we had time with Aoife for some indoor shots. The light through the windows at that time of day was incredible — perfect for more dramatic portraits. I normally shoot in natural light, but I played around with some fashion-style images using the shadows and her dress’s train. Then we took her out to the bar area.
One of my favourite parts of the day was the tablescape setup. Every year I shoot tablescapes at Grittleton House, so it’s something I always enjoy. This time I got to include Eric and Rose again in those shots.
At 3:30, we photographed Natalia and Alberto at the front of the manor with a classic Porsche — such an elegant scene. We started with the bridesmaids (Aoife, Ellie, and Esha) before focusing on the bride and groom.
To finish the day, we all gathered by the lake to photograph the boat scene. It was the perfect way to wrap things up — stunning views, calm water, and some incredibly brave models who made it look completely effortless (even if it was their first time in a boat!).
By the end of the day, I was heading back to South Wales with a camera full of content and a very happy heart. What an incredible experience — definitely one to remember.
