Great Fosters Wedding Photographer

Great Fosters dates back to the 17th century and believe it or not was sold for £700, which I imagine was worth somewhat more in 1787 than it is in todays money.  It’s a very romantic wedding venue in the Surrey countryside and set amongst 50 acres of stunning gardens and parkland.  As a Great Fosters Wedding Photographer I’ve shot a lot at this beautiful wedding venue, twice since Christmas.  I can’t help but be transported back in time when I step through the small entrance door into this magnificent house which opens up into a huge and welcoming reception room with log fires burning and decadent deep mahogany decor.

I usually start my day shooting with the bridal preparation in one of the bridal suites.  For a Great Fosters wedding photographer these rooms are a gift, with the most gorgeous light pouring into the room and onto the bride as she goes through make-up and hair.

The Orangery downstairs is typically where the ceremony takes place, although the venue has a licence to conduct ceremonies outside if you’re getting married in the summer months.

The wedding breakfast room is super, with ample space, high ceilings and a balcony (perfect for my light stands!).  The room makes for great photographs and I’ve captured many a belly laugh and tear in here.
