Real Wedding Photographs at Careys Manor
Hi! I'm here to share some more photos from an amazing wedding day at Careys Manor, New Forest.
It was packed with laughter, love, and some fantastic wedding photographs. As a wedding photographer based in the UK, these are the moments that make wedding photography exciting—special moments, creative ideas, and relaxed, completely natural images of the bride and groom, wedding party, and guests. I particularly focus on candid pictures - please do take a look and imagine what your bridal party at Careys Manor could look like!
Wedding Trends: The Fake Reveal
The day started with one of new trends in weddings - a fake bride reveal! Robyn sent her male friend in a wedding dress, giving everyone a great laugh before the ceremony began. I love to capture candid moments, and this was a great chance to get some fantastic real reactions on camera.
Groom Photos: A Second Story
I personally believe that groom photos are just as important as pictures of the bride. Taking photos of the groom getting ready, laughing with his best friend, or sharing a quiet moment before the ceremony, adds real memories to the wedding day story.
I always make sure to get relaxed groom portraits.
Documentary Wedding Photography: Real Emotions
My style is documentary wedding photography. I focus on candid moments, the love story between the bride and groom, and all the little details like flowers, the wedding dress, and the wedding cake.
Family and friends, bridesmaid and page boy, and fun shots during the ceremony and reception all help create images that tell the story of the day. Candid photos are also one of the best ways to look back on your day. Plus, as the busy bride and groom, you won't always have a chance be present with every guest, so it's another way of seeing the best of your family and friends on your big day.
Photos in the Garden
Careys Manor has a lovely garden, and luckily for us, we had great weather on the day. We were able to get some lovely shots in the garden, surrounded by greenery and blooming flowers.
The outdoor pictures continued as guests threw confetti over the new husband and wife! I especially loved how these photographs came out.
The Wedding Speeches
Guests were in riotous laughter at some very funny speeches. I was fortunate enough to get some big smiles on camera.
Ceremony, First Dance, and Dancing Guests
The wedding ceremony was filled with happy tears, laughter, and emotional moments. Capturing the first kiss, detail shots, the wedding party, and guests dancing on the dance floor is what makes wedding photos truly unforgettable. Photos from the first dance and the reception show just how much fun everyone had celebrating Darren & Robyn.
