Clevedon Hall Wedding Photographer: A Floral Wonderland
Updated: Sep 30
Wedding Photographer at Clevedon Hall
My good friend Camilla Joy Photography invited me along as a second wedding photographer for a wedding editorial she organized alongside Weddings by Emily Charlotte, Blue Sky Flowers, and Mark Howe Flowers at Clevedon Hall. Tucked away in the coastal town of Clevedon, right in the heart of Somerset, this Jacobean style manor house gives you that instant feeling of getting away from it all. What I love about it location-wise is how effortless it is for traveling guests. It’s just a stone's throw from Bristol Airport and super easy to reach right off the M5.
The moment I pulled up, I knew we were in for a special day. As you walk up the path past the lavender lining the drive, the grand main house opens up surrounded by gorgeous, manicured grounds.
The florals by Blue Sky Flowers and Mark Howe Flowers, featuring lush greens from Smilax UK, were over-the-top in the best way possible. To match the grand feel inside the hall, every corner was overflowing with textures and crisp white blooms. Florals are always one of my favorite elements on a wedding day, so getting to photograph our couple right in the main entrance surrounded by all that depth was an absolute dream.
For the dining setup, the flowers wrapped around the table paired with tableware from Chateau Noir Event Hire, making it feel like we brought a whole outdoor garden inside. The setup sat so naturally against the hall’s rich wood paneling and historic architecture, giving it a timeless, effortless elegance.
Shooting against those classic interiors gave the entire gallery a rich, cinematic feel. Warm light, beautiful styling with hair and makeup by Botias Hair and Makeup and hair accessories by Botias Accessories, dresses by Josephine Scott London, suits by Gresham Blake, and rings from The Promise Co allowed us to capture shots that felt genuine. As a Clevedon Hall wedding photographer, days like this are such a great reminder of how incredible a space can look when everything comes together.
Window Bridal Portraits at Clevedon Hall
My hands-down favorite spot in the house was the massive set of windows along the grand staircase. The natural light flooding into the stairwell was unbelievable, and as soon as I saw it, I knew we had to pose our bride up on the wide stone ledge.
I took a mix of wide, full-length shots to pull in the scale of the windows, along with softer, close-up portraits. The way the light caught her dress and veil against the glass turned these into some of my absolute favorite bridal portraits to date.
Why Choose Clevedon Hall For Your Wedding?
Having spent the day exploring every corner of the property, it’s no surprise to me why couples fall for this place. On top of the gorgeous rooms and private estate grounds, having exclusive use of the whole hall means you and your guests get total privacy for the entire day. As a huge bonus for animal lovers, it’s completely dog-friendly, so your pup can actually be part of the wedding!
From a photographer's perspective, the variety here gives us so much to play with. You can host your ceremony under the grand ceiling of The Great Hall, sneak off for quiet moments in The Library or The Snug, and head out to the grounds where you've got the private lake, huge lawns, and the garden Gazebo for romantic couple photos.
Choosing Your Clevedon Hall Wedding Photographer
Having a photographer who understands how to work with the unique light and character of a grand manor house makes all the difference when your final gallery comes together. My approach is centred on capturing real, unscripted moments, stepping in with quick direction only when you need a little guidance. Weddings fly by so quickly, and the best images always happen when you're just relaxed and enjoying the party. Clevedon Hall provides that incredible, elevated backdrop so you can focus on celebrating with your favorite people.
If you’re looking for a Clevedon Hall wedding photographer who will capture the genuine mood, the details, and all the quiet moments in between, I’d love to hear from you! If your search stretches a bit further east, feel free to take a look at my work as a London wedding photographer, too.
