2024 weddings

My first solo wedding


From my very first video call with Jack and Suzanne, it was clear to me that their wedding would be a joyous occasion. Their strong connection and relaxed personalities assured me that we would collaborate seamlessly. I enjoyed listening to their plans and all the personal touches they were incorporating into their special day.

The ceremony


The ceremony was a delightful mix of giggles and heartfelt promises! Suzanne's son played the gallant escort down the aisle since her dad was busy cheering on her mom in the hospital after a little pre-wedding mishap. But don’t worry, her parents were the VIPs of the day—honored in spirit, making sure they were part of the magic, even from afar!

Bubble exit


Once the "I dos" were said and done, we let Jack and Suzanne bask in their newlywed glow while snapping some adorable portraits. Next, we floated downstairs for their bubbly send-off, which was a blast—especially for the little ones who were totally obsessed with the bubble machines! Cheylesmore Manor House is a wedding wonderland; this charming venue has seen lovebirds tie the knot for ages, making it both magical and fascinating. We couldn't resist capturing some group shots before diving into the fun of the newlywed pics!

Newlywed photos


After a lightning-fast shoe swap, Suzanne rocked the most fabulous gold trainers ever! Paired with her revamped 90s wedding dress, it was a total chef's kiss! We strolled over to Coventry Cathedral for some newlywed snaps, and let me tell you, Coventry city center is a treasure trove for picture-perfect moments. I'm over the moon with the stunning results we captured!

Special gift


There was a little bit of time in-between the newlywed portraits and the drinks reception, so I went on a secret squirrel mission, nipped past home on the way and grabbed my polaroid printer and printed a few photos from the morning so that Suzanne could take them with her when she visited her parents in the hospital.

Reception


Off to Coombe Abbey for the shindig! The resident monk regaled guests with epic tales from yesteryear before the speeches kicked off. Meanwhile, Suzanne's parents joined the party via phone, sending their love through the mic like true tech-savvy champs! After Jack and Suzanne dazzled everyone with a jaw-dropping choreographed first dance, we nipped outside for some golden hour shots!

Time to party!


The evening celebrations were kicked off in style by The Elton John (tribute) , the dance floor was an absolute riot and a truly fabulous end to an amazing day.


I was truly spoilt with this being my first solo wedding and I am so grateful to Jack and Suzanne for choosing me to capture their day!

Kind words

“Kas captured every special moment of the day and evening. She listened to our desires and exceeded all our expectations. Highly recommend her for any of your professional photography needs!!!”
