Elvetham Hotel Wedding Photographer

Elvetham Hotel Wedding Photographer [Leigh & Billy Get Married!}

Not only is the Elvetham Hotel my local Hampshire wedding venue it just also happens to be my favourite place for wedding photography in Hampshire too. There's something about how an Elvetham Hotel wedding manages to be writ on a large scale while simultaneously feeling so intimate.

Leigh & Billy had one of those glorious Winter days where the sun bursts through the clouds early on and lights up the interior of the building all day until it sets early in the afternoon. Perfect for sitting near a window while hair and make-up is in progress and as the sun sets the interiors are lit with a beautiful golden glow. From a photography point of view it is so important to try to have your wedding ceremony as early in the day as possible to ensure you capture as much of that beautiful diffuse Winter light as possible. I always advise 1pm as the latest for the ceremony to start allowing time for the all important photo session with the couple alone and any group photos that may be required. I've never seen a successful group photo of everyone outside at 5pm in December. Although "formal wedding photography" doesn't feature much in my coverage parents will often ask for a few group photos so this is worth bearing in mind if you are planning a winter wedding.

If you were a guest at the wedding then why not buy yourself a reminder of the day from my Elvetham Hotel Wedding Photography Wall? You can find the full set of photos on my wall here Elvetham Hotel Wedding Photographer [Leigh + Billy].
