If you're planning your wedding at Maes Manor Hotel, you're choosing one of South Wales' most elegant country house wedding venues. Set amongst beautiful landscaped gardens and woodland on the outskirts of Blackwood, this historic manor house offers a wonderful mix of timeless architecture, stunning scenery and relaxed surroundings that make it a fantastic place to celebrate your wedding day. The venue is known for its beautiful grounds, impressive ballroom and flexible wedding packages, making it popular with couples from across South Wales and beyond.
As a South Wales wedding photographer, I love photographing weddings at Maes Manor. Every visit offers something different, from beautiful outdoor ceremonies and romantic portraits in the gardens to lively evening celebrations inside the elegant ballroom. Why Maes Manor is Perfect for Wedding PhotographyOne of the biggest advantages of Maes Manor Hotel is the variety of photographic opportunities available throughout the day.
The sweeping driveway creates a wonderful first impression as guests arrive, while the landscaped gardens, mature trees and woodland paths provide beautiful locations for relaxed couple portraits. The terraces and lawns are perfect for family group photographs without feeling rushed, and the surrounding countryside offers stunning backdrops, especially during golden hour.
Inside the manor you'll find elegant staircases, stylish reception rooms and plenty of natural light, allowing for beautiful photographs whatever the weather. The spacious ballroom comfortably accommodates larger celebrations while still feeling warm and welcoming.
My Photography StyleMy approach is simple – I want you to enjoy your wedding day without feeling like you're constantly posing for the camera. I specialise in relaxed, natural wedding photography, capturing genuine moments as they happen. From the excitement of getting ready through to your first dance, I'll quietly document the laughter, emotions and all those little moments that often become your favourite memories. I'll guide you when needed, especially during your couple portraits, but nothing ever feels forced. Most couples tell me afterwards that they hardly noticed I was there.
