Chapel House Estate, Ramsgate Autumnal Wedding - Kent wedding photographer
Chapel House Estate, Kent wedding venue.
It seems like an eternity since I last share my work here to showcase my work, the way social media is at the moment pushing images/reels/stories if they match trends or algorithms it makes sense to share my work here.
First up its Hayley and Mike's wedding who held their ceremony at the stunning Chapel House Estate, nestled just outside Ramsgate. From start to finish, their wedding was all about keeping things relaxed, joyful, and full of personality—and it truly delivered on every level.
With a strong focus on fun, the day was packed with games that kept guests entertained throughout the sunshine-filled afternoon. Laughter and friendly competition filled the air, creating a wonderfully laid-back atmosphere that perfectly reflected the couple.
As the celebrations moved indoors, the party didn’t slow down. A brilliant selfie corner—complete with a fantastic selection of props—kept everyone smiling well into the evening, capturing even more unforgettable moments.
All in all, it was an incredible day, full of energy, laughter, and love—one that will be remembered by everyone who was lucky enough to be there.
This was definitely a fun wedding.

Fern & Laurance's Kent wedding - Swarling Manor.
Well, I haven't posted a blog for a while so it's time I did.
I've chosen Fern and Laurence's wedding at Swarling Manor, based on the Chartham Downs in the Kent countryside.
The day started with bridal preparations in one of Swarling Manor's self contained cottages, then onto the ceremony which took place on one of the outdoor lawns before heading inside for a bite to eat, a magic trick and even a Harry Potter corner was on display.
The day moved on with the arrival of the evening guests where everyone was fed pizza, ice cream then everyone hit the dance floor dancing away to local band Creek.
The day was finished off with an awesome firework display in Swarling Manor's magnificent gardens.
A great day celebrating Fern and Laurence's moment. Here are a few of my favourite shots, enjoy!

Julie and Dean's micro wedding - The Guildhall Faversham
When Dean first contacted me to see if I was available for their micro wedding ceremony at the Guildhall in Faversham, I wasn't sure what to expect. I can honestly say this was probably one of the best and fun weddings I have captured.
A quick fire ceremony witnessed by four guests (of which two gate crashed the ceremony) followed by some cool photo opportunities around Faversham thanks to Simon for opening up his record shop and the guys from the Refinery coffee shop.
Got to admit Julie looked rather glamorous in her red dress as she left the Sun Inn, walked up the high street to the Guildhall for the ceremony.
Last word goes out to Troy the family dog who stole the show with his cameo performance.

St. Mary of Charity, Faversham Kent.
St. Mary of Charity is my kind of church, full of character and plenty of history. It's also in my hometown, Faversham. All the time I have been a wedding photographer this is the first time I have documented a wedding here. So Anna and Callum, ex-university students decided to hold their wedding at this beautiful church. What a great choice. The ceremony did not disappoint, songs, laughter, cheering and plenty of smiles.
We then went back to a pub in Boughton, this is where the party begun, great speeches and surrounded by friends and family who made it their aim to give Anna and Calum a wedding party to never forget.
Oh and the broom dance to kick off the evening party.
