Wedding Photographer in Thatcham

Serving Thatcham

Say hello to your Thatcham wedding photographer

Thatcham is a West Berkshire town in the Kennet valley. You will find us at home in a parish church, a converted barn or a smart hotel, and our venue diary reaches right across Newbury, Cold Ash and Aldermaston and the rest of Berkshire. Your ceremony sets the tone for everything that follows, so we photograph it faithfully and quietly, letting the vows and the setting carry the story.

The whole day is covered as it comes, without rehearsed poses or long setups, so you are free to be present with your guests while we quietly work. Rather than lining people up, we let groups form on their own and photograph them as they laugh and talk, keeping the whole thing loose and relaxed. Small, telling details matter to us as much as the big set pieces, so we photograph the handwritten notes, the borrowed jewellery and the quiet glances between courses.

There is a lot to like about photographing in Thatcham. Thatcham is a West Berkshire town in the Kennet valley, and couples from Slough and Reading regularly ask us to cover their day here as well. Close to Thatcham, we have worked at venues including Regency Park Hotel, Newbury Racecourse and Wasing Park.

Thatcham is a West Berkshire town in the Kennet valley, reputed to be one of the oldest continuously inhabited places in Britain. Thatcham railway station is on the Great Western line between Reading and Newbury, with the town lying beside the Kennet and Avon Canal. For relaxed couple photographs, we like The Nature Discovery Centre nature reserve at Thatcham, and St Mary's Church, Thatcham gives the day a strong sense of Thatcham.

Every kind of wedding

Two-day festivities? We are ready for those too

We are comfortable in Thatcham venues of every kind, and we plan quietly with your officiant or celebrant beforehand so nothing about the service surprises us. However your ceremony unfolds, in a chapel, a barn or a hotel garden room, we stay quietly at the edges and let the words and the looks between you speak for themselves. Church, courtyard, clifftop or town hall, wherever you choose to make your promises, we frame the reactions on both sides and the quiet glance you share halfway through.

We photograph the speeches from more than one angle when a second photographer is with us, so you keep both the joke and the reaction to it. From the buttonholes being pinned to the sparklers at the door, we follow the surrounding events of the day and treat each one as part of the same story. The cutting of the cake and the first dance often draw the whole room in, and we photograph them from within the crowd so the pictures feel shared.
