Marquee, Tipi & Garden Party Wedding Photographer in the South West

Marquee wedding photographer Bristol

Authentic & honest storytelling — capturing your day as it unfolds

If you’re planning a relaxed outdoor wedding, a tipi, marquee or garden party celebration its a beautiful, elegant and personal way to get married. These kinds of weddings offer complete flexibility — from the layout and styling to the pace of the day — making them perfect for couples who want something laid-back, fuss-free and true to them.


I’ve photographed many marquee, tipi and garden party weddings across the South West, including Bath, Bristol, Devon and Dorset, and I genuinely love the atmosphere they create. Outdoor weddings have a natural flow to them, and I focus on capturing everything as it unfolds in an authentic, unobtrusive way.

Why Choose a Marquee, Tipi or Garden Party Wedding in the South West?



One of the best things about a marquee or tipi wedding is the freedom it gives you. Whether you’re getting married in your own garden, a family field, or a dedicated marquee venue with stunning countryside views, you can truly make the day your own.


From rolling hills in Devon and Dorset to countryside locations near Bath and Bristol, the South West offers incredible backdrops for outdoor weddings. Being able to choose a location that means something to you — and run the day exactly how you’d like — creates a wedding that feels relaxed, meaningful and personal.

My Photography Style for Tipi & Marquee Weddings


My approach to wedding photography is calm and natural. I focus on real moments, genuine reactions and honest storytelling, allowing your day to breathe without interruption.


I’ll step in with gentle guidance when it’s helpful — such as during couple portraits or family photos — but I always keep things light, relaxed and easy. My aim is for you to feel comfortable and completely yourselves, so you can enjoy your wedding without feeling posed or rushed.


This style works perfectly for marquee, tipi and garden party weddings, where the day naturally flows and guests are free to relax, explore and celebrate.
