The Barn at Upcote Wedding Photography - Chloe & Armani
Chloe and Armani’s wedding at The Barn at Upcote was a hot, emotional, and brilliantly organised Cotswolds barn wedding full of personality from start to finish. Set in the Gloucestershire countryside, The Barn at Upcote gave the day so much variety, from the stone barns and gardens to the pond, open fields, and beautiful evening light. Their ceremony was full of genuine emotion, the speeches had everyone feeling it, and the little ladybirds appearing around Chloe added such a meaningful touch to the day. With pond-side portraits, Armani’s fast car, live music, illustrations, games, and a proper evening celebration, it was a relaxed and memorable wedding that felt completely true to them.
Kingscote Barn Wedding Photography - Siobhan & Nicholas
Siobhan and Nicholas’ wedding at Kingscote Barn was one of those days that just felt easy to enjoy from start to finish. It was warm, relaxed, and full of genuine moments, with family and friends properly involved in every part of the day. Kingscote Barn’s open grounds and Cotswolds views gave everything room to breathe, and it suited their laid-back energy perfectly. One of my favourite parts was the five minutes they took for themselves before group photos, which turned into some of the most natural images of the whole day. Add in a lively evening, plenty of singing, and a crowd ready to dance, and it was a brilliant Kingscote Barn wedding to photograph.
