A Relaxed, Documentary Wedding at The Pear Tree.
While photography is obviously important, it’s only one part of your whole wedding day. What really matters is celebrating your commitment and bringing two families together. You may have guests travelling from all over to be there, and you should have the time and space to actually enjoy them.
My approach at The Pear Tree, Purton is always documentary-led. I capture the fun, emotion and atmosphere as it unfolds, working quietly with a fly-on-the-wall presence. I won’t pull you away for hours of posed photos or make you miss time with your guests. Your wedding day isn’t a photoshoot — it’s a celebration. And the most meaningful photographs are always the natural ones don’t you think?
Group Photos Without Stopping the Day
Of course, I’m always happy to photograph family and friend group shots — they’re important too. I simply recommend keeping them relaxed and limited. Around 8–10 group photos is usually ideal and means they don’t interrupt the flow of the day or pull you away from your guests for too long.
At a venue like The Pear Tree, Purton keeping things moving helps maintain the fun, laid-back atmosphere that makes it so popular.
