Wedding at Orchardleigh, Somerset

Early in October Pearl Pictures shot a wedding at the stunning location of Orchardleigh in Somerset. The bride and groom were Vicky and Gordon Duncan, who were accompanied by beautiful bridesmaids including their 1 year old little girl, Daisy. Vicky’s vintage dress was decorated in streams of beads and pearls, and styled in the 1940’s. The whole style of the day was very ‘vintage glamour’ with Orchardleigh being the perfect backdrop.

Don’t forget the details

When photographing a wedding, it is important to capture all the small details of the day. It is the details that complete the overall vision of the day’s event and can make such a difference. When Pearl Pictures photograph a wedding we always make sure we have gone around and photographed everything from important aspects such as the bouquet, table decorations, and wedding cake to smaller details such as the embroidery on the wedding dress, champagne bottles, the ladies’ hats and garden decorations. Once we even photographed the loo roll as it was printed with a wedding themed cartoon!
