Joy and Tania Henley Photoshoot!

Although I photograph a lot of weddings, I also love shooting portrait photography! I think it's a really special thing to take a morning out to put your loveliest clothes on, a bit of makeup and have some photographs taken of you looking your best with a loved one or great friend. A couple of weeks ago I went out with my cousin Joy who lives all the way up in Nottingham and her good friend Tania from London for a portrait shoot in Henley on Thames. We found a beautiful old barn and got some great photos! Well done girls, you were very natural in front of the camera, and you did very well through all the muddy bits!! PS blog viewers: don't you think Tania looks sooo like Jennifer Aniston in the second photo?!

Exeter wedding photography!

Although based in Oxford, we have family in the South West (Bristol and Devon) and as such, we are keen to look at taking on more weddings in Exeter and the surrounding West Country - including Taunton, Barnstaple, Bristol, Bath, Paignton, Plymouth, Torquay and Torbay, Cornwall, Crediton, Dartmouth, Dawlish, Brixham, Salcombe, Haldon, Ilfracombe, Exmouth, Okehampton, Newton Abbot, Poole, Dorset, Somerset, Teignmouth, Totnes etc.

We've been looking around at some of the wedding venues in Exeter available to bride and grooms and some look really stunning! Check out these beautiful wedding venues in Devon, Somerset and Cornwall - and hopefully they will inspire you. We think all of them have something really special and unique about all of the following locations:

Powderham Castle

Royal Clarence Hotel

St Olaves Court Hotel

Polhawn Fort (Nominated for best wedding venue of the year award 2008!)

Bicton Park Botanical Gardens

Bovey Castle

Burgh Island Hotel (Fab for art-deco or 1920s themed weddings!)

Combe House Hotel

Buckland-Tout-Saints Hotel

Kitley House Hotel

Rosie Parsons is a contemporary Oxford wedding photographer specialising in relaxed and candid coverage. She is available to photograph weddings in areas including Oxford, Witney, Reading, Woburn, Luton, Milton Keynes, Aylesbury, High Wycombe, Gloucester, Bristol and Devon. She has photographed weddings at Lains Barn, Wantage, Sutton Courtenay, the Oxford & Cambridge Club on Pall Mall in London, Highgate London, Byzantium Restaurant in Bristol, St Aldates Church in Oxford, Malmaison in Oxford, the Land's End Hotel in Penzance Cornwall, The Tythe Barn in Bicester, Lakewood conference centre in Bristol, the National Trust's Basildon Park, The Beetle & Wedge in Goring, The Royal Chapel at Windsor Castle, Pinewood Studios in Iver Heath, Bradfield College, Phyllis Court in Henley on Thames and Woburn Sculpture Gallery, among many others. She has photographed bridal portraits at Le Manoir Aux Quat Saisons, The Bear Hotel Hungerford, Venice Italy (the perfect destination wedding location!), and in Clifton, Bristol.

Her wedding photography for real life weddings has been featured in "Perfect Wedding Magazine", "Your Bristol & Somerset Wedding" and "Wedding Ideas Magazine" and Rosie is a member of the SWPP (Society of Wedding & Portrait Photographers).

When not photographing weddings and bridal portraits Rosie also enjoys photographing live music, and her work in this area has seen her photograph the likes of Destiny's Child, James Brown, Il Divo and Corinne Bailey Rae.

Rosie specialises in reportage style wedding photography and contemporary bridal fashion portraits. The albums she offers are high quality professional coffeetable books and clients are welcome to come and see our samples at consultation meetings in Oxford.

We believe that choosing a female wedding photographer is a fantastic option for modern brides wanting all day coverage as the bride and bridesmaids can feel comfortable with having the photographer shoot getting ready shots without any embarrassing moments!

Rosie photographs weddings on professional Canon digital camera equipment and can provide a range of options. Coverage can be in full colour or a mixture of colour and black and white, whichever is your preference! Black and white shots can have a really classic, timeless and romantic feel to them but colour is always vibrant and full of life.

If you're interested in having engagement portraits taken, we can offer some really fun alternatives to the usual guestbooks! We can shoot your engagement session in one of our (or your!) favourite Oxfordshire/Berkshire locations and then make your favourite 15 images into a guest signing book to use at your wedding. Something really special to remember!

We are almost fully booked this wedding season, but do have occasional dates available - please contact us for more information on last minute weddings!
