Updated: May 5

In 2025, I had the opportunity to photograph weddings at a variety of incredible venues across the UK.

Here are my top 5 wedding venues where your wedding photos can truly look stunning — and why I love working at each of them.

1. Rushpool Hall

A truly beautiful venue, full of character and timeless elegance.

Rushpool Hall offers an incredible variety of photo locations, so there’s no need to go searching — everything is right there. From elegant interiors with grand staircases and large windows, to beautiful outdoor spaces with a castle-like feel, every corner works perfectly for photography.

If you're planning your wedding here, I would highly recommend both a professional photographer and a videographer — especially with a drone. The results can be absolutely breathtaking.
