Julie & Mike - Lysaught Institute Newport Wedding
Hi there! Thanks for making your way to this page! Today i’m posting some of my photos from Julie & Mike’s wedding.
On the 12th of September, I had the absolute pleasure of celebrating the wedding of Julie and Mike at the wonderful Lysaght Institute in Newport. It was one of those days that just felt easy, joyful, and full of love — the kind of wedding that perfectly reflects the couple at the heart of it. Also shout out to the Moylan sisters - Flaunt who are always lush to work with.
From the moment we arrived, there was such a calm, happy atmosphere. Julie and Mike are both incredibly down-to-earth, and their day mirrored that beautifully — relaxed, genuine, and filled with laughter. The Lysaght Institute was the perfect setting, offering a lovely blend of elegance and comfort, with plenty of space for guests to mingle and enjoy themselves.
Julie looked beautiful in her dress, and Mike couldn’t stop smiling from the moment he saw her. Their ceremony was heartfelt — you could feel the warmth in the room as they exchanged vows surrounded by family and friends.
Afterwards, everyone enjoyed drinks, chatting, and laughter. The details throughout the day were personal and thoughtful — from the décor to the music, everything had that lovely handmade touch that made it feel truly “them.” We dodged the rain just in time after confetti & the group shot!
As the evening rolled in, the dance floor came alive! Guests of all ages joined in, and the room was filled with energy, music, and plenty of happy faces. It really was one of those weddings where you could tell everyone was having the best time.
Julie and Mike’s wedding was a wonderful reminder that the best days are often the most relaxed ones — where love, laughter, and good company take centre stage.
Congratulations once again to this amazing couple — here’s to a lifetime of happiness together!

St Pierre Chepstow Wedding - Kate & Jake
If you are looking for St Pierre Chepstow wedding inspiration then look no further. In this blog post are a selection of images from Kate & Jake's wedding at the beautiful St Pierre in Chepstow. Jake & Kate got married in November so this was very much a winter wedding but with a fair bit of sunshine which is quite unusual for Wales.
The big day
So, I arrived early in the morning to find a beautiful sunrise and the weather forecast looking good! Amazing! Kate & Jake are both lovely people. I met Kate at another wedding I'd photographed during the covid period of time and it was lovely to catch up with her and my previous couple. This was a very relaxed wedding which I think suits my style a lot. It gives me the opportunity to capture as many candid images as possible which I love and am often told are my couples favourite images from their wedding day.
St Pierre Chepstow wedding - first time!
So this was my first time working at St Pierre and I was really impressed with this venue. It is a beautiful building with lots of grounds. I was told the the rooms that the weddings take place in have recently had a refurb. I thought it looked amazing and was a lot of fun to photograph these lovely people in. Usually you can take a golf buggy out on the golf course to have some photos but we decided against this on this day as there are so many lovely area's to use without leaving the wedding and its guests.
I hope you have enjoyed looking through this lovely wedding and hopefully it has given you some inspiration for your own wedding. Ilove chatting to new couples about their wedding plans. If you think I could be the photographer for you, lets talk! Send me a message via the contact page and I would love to chat all things weddings.
