The Wedding of Zoe & Ian at Titchfield Abbey, Hampshire by Sam Carter Photography

Main website: www.samcarterphotography.com

On 28th August 2010 I photographed the wedding of Zoe and Ian from Titchfield in Hampshire. They were the winners of a competition I ran back towards the beginning of the year to receive free wedding photography.

The ceremony took place at St John the Baptist Church in Titichfield and afterwards we travelled the short distance to Titchfield Abbey, a beautiful old abbey ruins, for some bride and groom shots.

Here a a few of the images from the day. If you would like more information on our photography services please visit our website at www.samcarterphotography.com or email us at enquiries@samcarterphotography.com.

Lifestyle Portrait Photography at Wagoner's Wells, Grayshott, for George by Sam Carter Photography

Main website: www.samcarterphotography.com

A couple of weeks ago I carried out a lifestyle portrait shoot for George. We headed down to Waggoner's Wells in Grayshott, Surrey and spent a leisurely hour walking around the woodland and lakes and photographing in various locations. George was a real star, and was relaxed in front of the camera and happy to play around with different poses and set ups.

Here are a few of the images from the shoot. If you are interested in our portrait photography services then take a look at our website at www.samcarterphotography.com for more details, or email us at enquiries@samcarterphotography.com

Wedding Photography for Darren & Min in Weston Super Mare by Sam Carter Photography

Early on the morning of 14th August I made my way through the drizzle from Hampshire to Weston Super-Mare in Somerset to photograph the wedding of Darren and Min. It was a really grey morning and it seemed like such a shame as they had chosen some wonderful outdoors locations for their photography which just couldn't be done in the pouring rain.

I needn't have worried though as the second we stepped out of the church the Sun shone and the temperature rose dramatically. It was the summer's day we'd all been hoping for. The church itself had no grounds so we made our way to nearby Grove Park to do shots of family and friends with Darren and Min. A little while later we then headed down to a quiet little beach rather aptly named 'Sandy Beach' for some bride and groom shots, before heading on to the reception.

Wedding Photography for Yvonne & Richard at West End Church & Camberly Heath Golf Club, by Sam Carter Photography

Main website: http://www.samcarterphotography.com/

On 7th August the rain came down but it didn't dampen the spirits of Yvonne, Richard or any of the guests at their wedding.

Yvonne looked stunning and was a picture of serenity as she was walked down the aisle of West End church by her son, Rob. The bridesmaids looked fabulous in navy blue and navy and ivory dresses. The ceremony went without a hitch (pardon the pun) and as we left the church the rain lifted and the sun came out.

At Camberley Heath Golf Club the wedding breakfast guests were entertained by close-up magician Noel Qualter (http://www.noelqualter.com/) and beautiful music from a Harpist. As the light faded, the party got started with live music and dancing. It was a fantastic day and a couple of rainbows even put in an appearance in the late afternoon sky.

Pre-Wedding Photography Shoot for Andrea & Tony at SouthSea Rose Garden by Wedding Photographer Sam Carter

Main Website: http://www.samcarterphotography.com/


In true British Summer time tradition, the weather has been very changeable. It can be sunny in the morning and pouring with rain in the afternoon. Last Sunday I woke up to find it tipping down outside and my heart sank. I was due to photograph a pre-wedding shoot for a great couple, Andrea and Tony, that afternoon at the Southsea Rose Garden, but if this rain kept up we would have to re-think the shoot. Fortunately a few hours later the Sun burnt away the clouds and chased away the rain.

Southsea Rose Garden is a real hidden gem. tucked away along the sea front in Southsea near Portsmouth, it is housed in the remains of Lumps Fort which dates back to the 1860's. It is a sanctuary of peace and tranquility just metres from the popular Southsea sea front.

Andrea and Tony were a dream to photograph. They are very comfortable with each other in front of the camera and happy to play with the camera and have some fun. We took several shots around the rose garden and also in the Japanese garden next door. Here are a few of the images from the shoot.

Pre-Wedding Photo Shoot in Dorking for Natalie & David by Hampshire & Surrey Wedding Photographer, Sam Carter

Main website: http://www.samcarterphotography.com/

Last Saturday I carried out a pre-wedding shoot for Natalie and David whose wedding I am photographing in September.

They chose to have the shoot at David's parents house and garden in Dorking, giving a wonderful, natural backdrop and relaxed feel to the images.

Here are a few of the images from the day.

Pre-wedding or engagement shoots are a great way to get used to having your photograph taken before your wedding day. You get to see how your photographer works and your photographer gets to know what you do and don't like so they can get the very best shots for you on your wedding day - almost like a photographic rehearsal.

We offer our clients the option of having one of their pre-wedding shoot images turned into a wonderful dedication board for their guests to sign at the wedding. It makes a great keepsake from your wedding day and a wonderful piece of wall art to hang in your home.
