Becky and Matt’s Engagement Shoot at St Audries Park,
Exmoor
When Becky and Matt asked me if they could bring their little dog Rolo along on their pre-wedding shoot I was over the moon! I knew Rolo wasn’t very old so was excited to chat all things Puppy with them having recently got our cocker spaniel puppy Ted.
I have to say, at the time Rolo seemed like a dream by comparison to my excitable cocker spaniel puppy, she was impeccably well behaved – even when we marched through a field of wheat 4 times her height!
At the time, Becky and Matt were super busy planning their St Audries Park wedding. Becky was about to go away to Edinburgh for a whole month and they were working through their wedding to do-list before she went away.
We met up at their venue, St Andries Park, took a few shots and then headed down to St Audries Bay to let Rolo stretch her legs.
St Audries Park has been voted the Best British Coastal Venue in 2019 by The British Wedding Awards, set in stunning parkland, surrounded by farmland and just a short trip from the North Somerset coast as well as rugged National Park of Exmoor, I can totally see why.
Below are some of my favourite snaps from their pre-wedding shoot
Why I love an Exmoor pre-wedding shoot
Exmoor‘s unique landscape makes it the perfect backdrop for a pretty cool engagement shoot. From it’s wild, windswept moorlands and breathtaking sea-views, to it’s ancient woodlands and craggy valleys. I absolutely love heading out on an adventure with clients in search of epic backdrops and beautiful light. There’s so much to do on Exmoor too, why not take a midnight walk with the one you love, you could go star gazing in some of the darkest skies in the UK. You could take a horse ride, feel the wind in your hair as you gallop across moorland with views of the sea up ahead. If you’re looking for a lazier afternoon why not take a picnic and head out fishing in the beautifully clear waters of Exmoor’s streams and rivers, or if you’re after a wilder water experience hire a canoe and go out in search of rapids!
There’s always an adventure to find in this beautiful natural park, making it one of my favourite places to head out on a pre-wedding shoot.
