MAIDSTONE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

Historic Castles, Country Houses & Beautiful Countryside Venues

Maidstone and the surrounding countryside have some fantastic wedding venues,

from historic castles and elegant country houses to beautiful gardens and countryside settings.

Here are some of my favourite wedding venues I've photographed at across Maidstone and the surrounding areas,

each offering something a little different for your special day.

The Orchard Suite

Otham, Maidstone

I've always enjoyed photographing weddings at The Orchard. One of my favourite spots is the little area tucked away to the right at the top of the stairs, perfect for a few relaxed couple portraits.

My approach is to capture your wedding naturally, from the laughter and emotion to those little moments you might otherwise miss. I'll step in when needed, but never keep you away from your guests for longer than necessary.

Whether it's a full-day wedding or a twilight celebration, I'll make sure you get beautiful photographs without turning your day into a photoshoot.

Bradbourne House

East Malling, Kent

I love photographing weddings at Bradbourne House, especially in the beautiful orchard gardens, one of my favourite spots for relaxed couple portraits.

From the grand rooms to the lovely grounds, there's plenty of variety for capturing natural moments throughout your day.

My approach is relaxed and unobtrusive, capturing the laughter, emotion and little moments while making sure you spend more time enjoying your wedding than posing for photographs.

Leeds Castle

Wedding Photography at Leeds Castle, Maidstone

Leeds Castle is one of Kent's most impressive wedding locations, with its beautiful stone architecture, historic interiors and stunning grounds surrounded by water.

Having photographed a wedding here, I particularly love how the castle itself creates such a striking backdrop for couple photographs. There's so much character in the surroundings, and plenty of opportunities to capture beautiful portraits while keeping everything relaxed and natural.

My approach is to make the most of the location without taking you away from your guests for too long, capturing the real moments and atmosphere that make your wedding day yours.

Lower Grange Farm

Maidstone, Kent

Lower Grange Farm is a bit different from the usual Maidstone wedding venue. The old Kentish barn, open grounds and relaxed setting give the day a much more informal feel, with plenty of space for guests to enjoy themselves.

It works really well for documentary photography because there’s always something happening around you, from the ceremony and drinks outside to the quieter moments away from the main crowd.

I’ll keep things relaxed throughout the day, capture everything as it happens and then step in when needed for family photographs and a few natural portraits of the two of you.
