Sophie and Ashleys Dreamy Devon Wedding - Salcombe Church & Dartington Hall

What a dreamy day…… Sophie and Ashley married in Salcombe Church, a day full of love and laughter. Sophie is a huge Disney fan and the day felt like a Disney masterpiece, love and romance through the day accompanied by Disney songs played firstly at home getting ready and again at Dartington Hall by their Pianist.

I captured the Story of the day and always love working in both Salcombe and Dartington Hall, two great places to capture peoples lives and the Wedding Day!

After church we whisked off to North Sands for some Beach shots before driving across to Dartington Hall and spending the rest of the afternoon and evening there. There are simply far too many awesome spaces to shoot in at Dartington, and the light on this September day was perfect.

Enjoy looking at this small selection of photos from the day and feel free to share or add comments…..

Simon and Laura's Panamanian English Wedding - Salcombe, Devon

Simon and Laura travelled from their home in Panama to SAlcombe in South Devon to get married! Simon grew up in and around Salcombe on his summer holidays as a child. Since meeting Laura in Panama where Simon works, they have holidayed in Salcombe and naturally it was the perfect place to get married. Salcombe is certainly becoming a destination for many over seas couples.

Laura and her bridal party got ready in one of Salcombes older properties, a wonderful cottage close to the Church. A very relaxed feel to the mornings preparations and great opportunities for photos. After a short walk to Cliff House we met up with Simon and his grooms men, all very relaxed in the sunshine and a true Panama feeling was on the cards. The whole day was planned to feel relaxed and fun, with a little bit of english wedding tradition. The ceremony took place in the Library on the top floor of Cliff House with its wonderful views across the estuary.

The evening kicked off with a Samba band to get us all in the mood followed by a fab conga! This was a stylish, fun and relaxed Party of a Wedding!

Harriett and Luke's Stylish Wedding at Salcombe Harbour Hotel, Salcombe, Devon

What a stunning day! Harriett and Luke travelled to Salcombe with their family and loved ones from their Wiltshire home. Salcombe is very much a UK Wedding destination, based in the South West and famed for its stunning beaches and luxurious hotels.

Harriett looked absolutely stunning, keeping everything simple and wowing everyone in a backless dress complete with cathedral legnth veil. Luke and his men opted for a very modern look, with pale coloured suits, Bow ties and the fashion of loafers and no socks!

The couples daughters were beautiful flower girls and their nephew was paige boy. So much love and warmth from guests and the couple them selves.

After the church we whisked off to North Sands, a very busy and popular loaction, but cleverly with good angles managed to make it look quiet. The wind was proving to be just right to make Harrietts veil work to its best use.

The Salcombe Harbour Hotel was base for prep and the Wedding Breakfast, stunning views, location and food. Its one of our favourite Wedding Venues.

Bristol Harbour Hotel Bridal Fashion Shoot - Bristol

This Venetian Styled Shoot was a great collaboration between Martyn Norsworthy (Photographer) and Lawrence Taylor of Precision (Hair) Sally Bracey (Make Up) Laura Louise Hall (Dresses) and set in the stunning City Centre Venue, Bristol Harbour Hotel.

This amazing space was once two Banks and has now been turned into a very stylish Hotel and Wedding Venue. Ever since I saw the interior at launch I have been planning this shoot, the Archtitecture and furnishing make this a photographers dream. I have an eye for interior design and love creating stunning images showcasing both the Wedding couple and the venue.

The two models for the day were Hayley and Corrie, they both had complety different looks to their Hair and Make Up, to suit the style of final images being produced.

Creating these beautiful images was a joy, and using simple techniques and lighting that can be replicated on a Wedding day is always important to me.

Show some love and feel free to comment.......

Amazing Comments from Bride and Grooms at this years The Wedding Industry Awards

SO, today I got to see the lovely comments my Wedding Couples left for me on the voting site of The Wedding Industry Awards. WOW blown away by these and it so lovely to see that all my hard work and care does get noticed xx

Comment:
Martyn is a very conscientious photographer who can create the most contemporary or traditional styled photos which will bring out the exact dream of the special wedding and of the special day. Using his unique and persuasive organisational skills Martyn ensures that all of the required wedding photos, pre-planned with the bride and groom, are taken with a sense of humour but keeping with the somewhat tight timelines of the day. Simply put: Creative, Stylish and Professional

Martyn is an incredible photographer and brings more to his service than just photos. He is fully invested in the work he delivers and his passion shines through. We would chose him over and over again! He assists in the whole day and takes a visible lead in making the day run smoothly but does so in a really discrete manner. Every guest had great comments on his behaviour and service. We loved the fact that guests barely noticed we were gone whilst Martyn sneaked us to the beach for pics!

There is no other word for Martyn but INCREDIBLE. He made my wife and I feel completely at ease throughout the whole wedding process and on the day itself. He captured stunning photographs and we had so many comments from friends about how amazing our pictures were. Not only this, but the way Martyn dealt with our friends and family on the day was just brilliant. His sense of humour and in turn his people skills are second to none. We simply cannot thank Martyn enough.

Martyn was a complete and utter star throughout our wedding and it was his professional knowledge and guidance that made our wedding day absolutely perfect. He immediately put us at ease from our trial photos and understood our brief for the day. Martyn took great care to arrive and blend in with our dress code and told our wedding story with pure class and beauty. Will forever be grateful we chose Norsworthy photography.

Martyn is a friendly, kind, knowledgeable and unobtrusive photographer. He is amazing with all the guests and particularly children who may be shy at first. He understands our requirements and produces high quality photographs. Martyn photographed our small wedding in December and our very wet Blessing in July with calmness and understanding. He is amazing.

From the moment we met martyn, we knew he'd be the perfect man to be part of our day. We had met a few photographers prior who just weren't right. He listened, offered advice without being patronising, he was patient, he was funny, he knew excalty what to say to relax me. My bridesmaids and the mother's loved his approach and we have received so many compliments regarding the quality and style of the photographs. We would highly recommend him to anyone- not just wedding photography.

Martyn is amazing, I'm a very nervous person and not keen on having my photo taken but martyn put me at ease and helped the day run smoothly. He is creative and always looking for unique photo opportunities which adds to the fun on our special day.

It’s difficult to put into words how amazing Martyn made our day. From the very beginning including the day before at our Wedding rehearsal, Martyn made us both feel relaxed and at ease. On the big day itself Martyn and his assistant Julie were incredible. Not only is Martyn a brilliant photographer, but he helped with keeping all the finer details of the day running smoothly. He is so professional and organised! I cannot recommend him enough and we are both so pleased that we chose him.

Martyn’s input&support from initial booking, run up to wedding, on the day&afterwards has been invaluable! He’s highly organised (inc. providing rehearsal), great attention to detail, trustworthy, patient &integrated well with guests, inc.Steggie, dinosaur belonging to youngest bridesmaid. The photos are fab–reflecting a day filled with lots of love and laughter. He really contributed to making sure that it was stress free and fun-filled. We would wholeheartedly recommend Norsworthy Weddings!

We loved the style of Martyn's photographs that we saw prior to meeting with him. He showed us further photographs when we met with him for the first time, along with the various styles of albums etc. that come as part of his packages. Whilst his photographic style was exactly what we were looking for, it was Martyn's personality that shone and both my wife and I, felt immediately at ease with him and had complete confidence that he was the right photographer for us. We could tell that Martyn is completely passionate about his work, but also he wants to provide you with the best memories of your day possible. That alongside his caring personality and humour had us booking him straight away!

He replied quickly to any correspondences (email, text and phone). Martyn was more of a wedding coordinator for us as the events planner at the hotel quit a week before our wedding. He communicated with the hotel, arranged the finer details of our day, met all our family the night before and performed a wedding rehearsal. This was amazing as I was slightly concerned and nervous. He made the day just perfect!

I had heard through friends that had used Martyn for their wedding how good he was and when I met him he was so lovely and funny that I knew he was the right photographer. Smiling for all the photos was easy with Martyn. He is also priced perfectly in my opinion as he is not the cheapest nor is he not value for money. Worth every penny.

We booked Martyn after initially seeing his work on the hotel’s facebook page and him being included on their preferred wedding supplier list. Based on seeing the images on the Norsworthy Wedding facebook page, we both agreed that this was the "look" of wedding photography that we were looking - one which takes into account the couple, their guests and the location. After an initial meeting with Martyn, we both agreed that we wanted him to be the photographer at our wedding - even changing the wedding date to make this happen!

Zoe and Jason's Market Town Wedding in rural Oxfordshire

What a joy it was to capture Zoe and Jason's Wedding. I photographed Zoe's sisters wedding 2 years ago, and have known the family for most of my life too. Zoe isnt someone for fuss and attention, so when sorting the details for her Wedding she wanted the photography to be kept simple. But wow what a great wedding! A small ceremony in Woodstock Town Hall with just the nearest and dearest attending, followed by a large Wedding Party at Freelands Village Hall.

Zoe looked stunning in a Maggie Sottero Dress, as did Jason in his Tweeds. A lot of hard work was put in by the family and friends decorating and prepping the Village Hall. A very warm and relaxed day made for the best of Weddings. A pile of donuts and fabulously decorated village hall all played its part!

Emma and Bryn, A Country House Wedding at Orchardleigh Estate

What a fab venue for a lovely Wedding! Orchardleigh Estate is situated between Frome and Bath. A stunning Country House with amazing rooms to enjoy. The weather was extremely changeable but we delivered. The gaps between the showers gave us some dramtic outdoor shots. Such a warm and friendly wedding with lots of love and laughter.

Enjoy.....
