Lucinda and Josh
Lucinda and Josh tied the knot at the beautiful Sandon Manor in November 2025. It was a new venue for me and with its stunning grounds and the manor house being the main attraction, I was excited to see what magic I could make!
Inside the manor house is a photographer's dream, with so many rooms and areas to take photos. Lucinda and Josh were great to work with, allowing me to experiment with them to create my vision. It was also the perfect place for them to take a moment from their day and celebrate becoming the new Mr and Mrs Gardiner, before joining their guests at their reception.
Sandon Manor provides a plan b for rainy wedding days. Once the ceremony room was cleared, it provided me with some studio space, perfect for group shots. I was really happy with this, as I was able to leave it set up all afternoon for any extra group shots. It also meant guests were kept happy with being warm and dry out of the rain.
We even had a furry friend join us for the bride and groom photos! Oakley was very well behaved and we got some lovely shots.
Lucinda and Josh were keen to use the quirky bar area for some arty shots later on in the day. I was more than happy to go along with their request, so I grabbed my off camera flash and got shooting!
They were both naturals in front of the camera, which made the bar shoot such a fun experience. The staff were more than happy for us to experiment. Josh even stood on the bar for photos!
I am looking forward to returning to Sandon Manor again very soon.
