A sunny spring day set the perfect scene for a truly memorable wedding at Upton Barn in Devon. As a Devon + Cornwall wedding photographer, I was thrilled to start the season capturing this beautiful celebration. The couple’s unique idea of having all guests wear black created a striking visual harmony with the venue’s architecture, which features many black elements. This choice made for stunning images that blend seamlessly with the barn’s rustic charm.

Sneak Peeks of the Upton Barn Wedding

This wedding took place just a few days ago, so only the preview photos are available here. When you book me as your photographer, I provide a quick 48-hour turnaround on approximately 50-200 photos, allowing you to immediately revisit the day's moments and share them on social media as an announcement if you like.

A fresh take on wedding style

The decision to have guests dress in black gave the wedding a modern edge. It’s rare to see such a bold, cohesive theme that works so well with the venue’s natural features. The black attire contrasted beautifully with the soft spring light, enhancing the dreamy wedding photography style I aim for.

The mix of editorial and documentary styles means you get the best of both worlds: carefully composed shots alongside candid, emotional moments. This balance is key to modern wedding photography, where the goal is to tell a story that feels real and timeless.  The editing style I use keeps tones smooth and uncluttered, focusing on the couple and their guests without distractions.
