Cornwall is one of the best places in the UK for adventurous weddings, especially in autumn when the coastline, woodland and moorland all feel dramatic in their own way. Leah and Benji wanted a relaxed, multi-location day that made the most of Cornwall’s landscapes, and as a Cornwall wedding photographer, it was exactly the kind of celebration I love to capture. Five locations, one November day, and a couple who were up for anything.

Leah and Benji first got in touch just a few weeks before their wedding, and luckily I was available. They wanted something completely personal, with no strict schedule or traditional structure. We started the morning in north Cornwall with Leah’s preparations, keeping things calm and simple.

Next was Truro Registry Office, where Benji waited with close family and friends. Leah arrived in a warm-toned dress that suited the season perfectly. After their intimate ceremony, we stepped into the garden for some relaxed group photos. Lots of hugs, lots of sunshine and a lovely start to the day.

In the weeks leading up to the wedding, we planned an itinerary built entirely around places that meant something to them. After the ceremony, they jumped into their Land Rover Discovery, and we headed off for some nature inspired wedding photography. Our next stop was a woodland near St Austell, full of autumn colour. They swapped dress shoes for walking boots and embraced the moment.

From there, we headed to a secluded beach for wedding portraits. A storm the day before had left behind huge waves and dramatic skies, and we had the whole beach to ourselves. It felt calm, wild and completely surreal in the best way.

I climbed a nearby cliff for some wide landscape frames before heading down to the sand to capture a mix of artistic portraits and simple, quiet moments.

As the light started to fade, we drove to Rebellion Roast House in Charlestown. Candlelight, warm florals and a cosy atmosphere made it the perfect final stop. Dinner was followed by live music, speeches and dancing, and the whole evening was full of warmth and connection.

Leah and Benji’s wedding was everything a multi-location Cornwall celebration should be: relaxed, scenic and full of personality.
