– Benji and Leah

On a crisp, late-November day, I had the honour of photographing Benji and Leah’s wedding across five different locations in Cornwall. The day before had been stormy, but today the skies cleared to give us bright, autumnal light—perfect for their adventurous celebration!

The day began at Benji and Leah’s home, where I met Leah for some preparation photos with her Mum doing up the dress, and then some moments of quiet reflection with Leah in front of the mirror.

The next stop was the Truro Registry Office, where Benji waited slightly nervously alongside their closest family and friends. Leah soon arrived, looking amazing in warm toned dress. With the ceremony suddenly upon us, Benji and Leah said their intimate and heartfelt vows as their families proudly watched on. Afterward, we took advantage of the lovely garden for group photos that were filled with smiles and laughter.

Before their wedding, I had worked with Benji and Leah to plan an adventurous itinerary, and I couldn’t wait to finally capture it! With the newlyweds in their Land Rover Discovery, and me in my slightly less exciting VW Golf we hit the road!

First up was a woodland near St Austell, where the golden hues of autumn created a gorgeous backdrop. Leah and Benji swapped their formal shoes for walking boots, embracing the season and the adventure. We captured some incredible shots of them surrounded by trees and fallen leaves.

From there, we headed to a secluded beach on the south coast. With the storm having passed, the waves were crashing high, creating a dramatic and awe-inspiring setting. The entire beach was ours, so I took advantage by climbing a nearby cliff for some wide-angle shots. Then, down on the sand, I switched between artistic blurry shots and sharp, intimate portraits of Leah and Benji.

As the day turned into evening, we arrived at Rebellion Roast House in Charlestown for the reception. The venue was beautifully decorated with candles and beautiful floristry.

Everyone enjoyed a delicious meal, and a very talented singer provided live music. The night was filled with wholesome moments, from heartfelt speeches to lively dancing. Leah and Benji’s affection, and their friends and family’s kindness made the celebration feel even more special.

To Leah and Benji, thank you for letting me be part of your adventure!
