Hartland Abbey Wedding Photographer
A historic family house in a wild North Devon valley, with gardens that lead down to an Atlantic cove. Relaxed, documentary photography, £2,000 all in.

A note on the photos: I have not photographed a wedding at Hartland Abbey yet, so as your Hartland Abbey wedding photographer I am showing pictures from other weddings of mine. When I photograph one here, they will be replaced.
What a Hartland Abbey wedding photographer is working with
Hartland Abbey is a historic family house in a remote valley near Hartland, with gardens and grounds that lead down to a wild Atlantic cove.
Ceremonies can be in the Victorian Drawing Room for up to 70, the Billiard Room for 40, the Library for fifteen or the Summerhouse for twelve. Receptions are in a marquee on the lawns or elsewhere on the estate, for around 200.
Old rooms, walled gardens and the Atlantic at the bottom of the valley.

Photographing a Hartland Abbey wedding
The house has beautiful old rooms with deep windows, and the gardens are full of texture. The walk down the valley to the cove is one of the most dramatic in Devon.
With a marquee on the lawn, the party has the house as its backdrop, which is lovely as the light goes.

How I photograph a Hartland Abbey wedding
Hartland Abbey sits in a wild valley that runs down to the Atlantic, so a Hartland Abbey wedding photographer gets old rooms, walled gardens and a dramatic cove on one estate.
As your Hartland Abbey wedding photographer I photograph the ceremony in the house and, if you want it, the walk down the valley towards the sea, while the marquee party carries on by the lawns.

Planning your Hartland Abbey wedding photography
If you want photos at the cove, allow time for the walk and bring flat shoes. Keep twenty minutes free before sunset.

What a £2,000 Hartland Abbey wedding photographer covers
House, gardens and a wild cove, covered for one price.
Straight answers
Up to 70 for a ceremony in the Drawing Room and around 200 in a marquee.
In the Drawing Room, Billiard Room, Library or Summerhouse.
One price, £2,000, covers everything: I stay as long as you need me, you get 800+ finished photos, 100+ previews within a day, drone photos where permitted and a private gallery. UK travel is included, so there is no travel charge for Devon.
Hardly any. There is a list of family groups, which I keep quick, and a few minutes of portraits with gentle prompts. Everything else is unposed.
