Victoria Jane Photography -A short preview of my wedding photography

Wow were has the time gone? My poor old blog has been rather neglected over the last year … although for a good reason 🙂 I decided to take a little less work on so I could play Mummy a little bit more to our new beautiful daughter Livy, who has just turned 1 !

Were to start ? I have so many fabulous weddings to add and some really exciting corporate jobs I’ve had the honour to photograph over the last year. But Rome wasn’t built in a day and so rather than try rushing to post everything I thought Id have a look back over the last year or so and design a little video showing some of my favourite wedding photographs.

Being a professional Wedding photographer is such a wonderful privilege.  Not only do I get to be part of your special day (& maybe even eat a slice of cake!) but I get to create memories for you that will last a life time… precious memories that you’ll be able to look back on in years to come and smile, and maybe even shed a tear, reminiscing about your amazing day. And I have been lucky enough to have been allowed to create those irreplaceable memories, frozen in time, for hundreds and hundreds of lovely couples.

So how can I choose my favourite images as I must have an archive of 100’s of thousands of images.  Well the honest answer is I couldn’t, as I have too many :-),  so instead I chose a handful of images which hopefully captures who I am a photographer and give you an idea about how passionate I am about what I can do for you. What ever your preferred style, relaxed reportage photography, more classic photography or even unique contemporary photography & I happy to listen to your hopes for your Special day.

I’d love to hear from you if you have an up coming Wedding and would like a professional photographer. From small intimate registry office weddings to Grand Stately Homes, Id love to be part of your special day, capturing & creating life long memories for you, and even more favourite photographs for me!

Nicki & Rob’s Wedding at Allesley Church & Brandon Hall

A job doesn’t get much better when you can combine everything you love. My passion for photography, getting to be creating with wonderful wedding dresses, pretty flowers, sparkly jewellery, working with Stuart who was 2nd shooting with me on this wedding, celebrating special occasions with happy people & of course … cake! So how pleased was I that I could combine all of these with Nicki & Rob’s Wedding.

Nicki & Rob popped over a few weeks before their wedding to chat through their day & have a few informal practise shots as they were a little nervous about having their pictures taken.  I know they were nervous but they really had no need to be.  They are a lovely couple with great personalities & who obviously adore each other & this shone through in the images I captured   :).

Stuart & I headed to Nicki’s house to first capture all the pretty details of the dress, shoes, flowers etc as well as Nicki & her bridesmaids’ preparation.  It was clear from the beginning that this was going to be a lovely feel-good wedding.

After spending some time with the girls we headed to Allesley Church in Coventry to photograph Rob with his two best men & usher.  Rob was happy for fun & formal photograph so we made the most of it by getting the lads to star jump & give Rob the bumps!

It was a lovely service conducted by Robin &, once finished, we spent a little time getting some of the group shots Nicki & Rob had asked for, as well as the first of the shots of Nicki & Rob as husband & wife.

After a cheeky glass of Champaign, the happy couple made their way to Brandon Hall in style in a lovely 1933 Rolls Royce convertible, courtesy of Chris from C.G.Wedding cars

We’d had a bad spell with the weather & I knew Nicki had been worried that her wedding would be a wash out.  She’d hired out some lovely pretty white parasol type umbrellas.  Nicki hadn’t needed to have been worried as the weather ended up being glorious.  However, it would have been an awful waste to not have used the parasols & as well as some lovely shots with the couple we had great fun with the youngest bridesmaid and Nicki’s two cheeky twin brothers.

We finished our photographic coverage after the speeches, which went down very well, particularly the double act from the best men which comprised of a slide show, showing various embarrassing photos as well as reminiscing about the antics of a younger Rob.

Nicki & Rob’s wedding was a fantastic & fun wedding to photograph. Below are a few of my favourite images we took from the day.

Craig and Alice’s Wedding | Photography in Harbury, Warwickshire by Victoria Jane Photography

Some weddings can be described in only 3 words; Fun, Fun, FUN !!!

When Alice and Craig met me to discuss their photography I was in no doubt that this was going to be a fabulous day ….. and I wasn’t wrong! They were a lovely couple with a lively set of guests and bridesmaids and groomsmen who were also up for a laugh.

It was really interesting to see some different things on the day that had been carefully planned: the bride taking her pet sheep for a walk, our photo booth at night time in the stables, A road trip with a horse and carriage, Sumo wrestling suits for the guests, Giant Jenga on the lawn etc.

Anyway, enough of the chat, lets allow the photos to do the talking …….

As you can see, I was given a bit of freedom to think up some interesting photo opportunities. Craig and Alice were very willing to do something different and the photography became one of the entertainments of the day! We were there for around 15 hours from early morning to late at night. It was a fabulous day and I hope you enjoyed the images I created.

If you are planning a wedding day with a difference in Warwickshire and you fancy some creative and fun photographic memories please give me a call on 07739096632. I’d love to talk to you.

Wedding Photography at St Botolph’s Church in Newbold on Avon and Ansty Hall | Jade and Lewis Photographed by Victoria Jane Photography

Today I had another great day! This time the pressure was off me a little as I was sharing the responsibility for photographing Jade and Lewis’s wedding with my friend and fellow photographer, Lisa Scott. It was a lovely day, with the weather being kind to us. I started my wedding photography at the groom’s house while Lisa met the bride at Ansty hall where she was getting ready. I moved on to photograph Lewis, his best man and ushers at the church while Lisa stayed with Jade and her bridesmaids until their arrival at the church. During the service I was at the back of the church while Lisa was positioned at the front. Afterwards, we split the group shots at the church and at Ansty hall.  Anyway, enough of the words …… I’ll let my photos do the talking now!! These are all photographs that I took today ……

Becki & Gareth’s Pre Wedding Photo Shoot at Ettington Chase Hotel in Stratford

With a busy August ahead, July is chocked full of pre wedding meetings & a number of pre-wedding photoshoots.

This weekend was the turn of Becki & Gaz.

I first meet Becki & Gaz around a year ago so it was great to catch up properly, stroll around Ettington Chase hotel & discuss their photographic wish list.

As a wonderful keep-sake, Becki & Gaz were keen to have one of the images taken from this photo shoot as a centrepiece of a photo mount so that their friends & families can sign it on their wedding day  … I’ll look forward to seeing which image they choose 🙂





Becki & Gaz were a great couple to photograph & I’m very much looking to their wedding date later on in August this year !

Laura and Paddy’s Outdoor Wedding at Warwick House | Photographed by Victoria Jane Photography

I was really excited about being asked to do the photography at Laura and Paddy’s wedding. Firstly, they are a fun couple; easy going with a great sense of humour and open to ideas and suggestions about their photography on the day. Secondly, Warwick house in Southam is a relatively new wedding venue and it was the first time that I’d photographed a weddng there, and thirdly, Laura and Patrick had opted to have their wedding ceremony outside! …… We were hoping for good weather!

The day arrived, we were there early, and thanks to the wonderful staff at warwick house, everything was looking lovely. An added bonus was a sunny day, if a little windy at times. We had been asked to photograph the day until the start of the sit-down meal. Here’s a taster of their day …..

I really enjoyed the day and I think the wedding photos show that Laura and Patrick and their guests did too. For any couples getting married in the warwickshire area who want the option of an outside wedding I would definitely recommend adding Warwick house in Southam to your list of venues to explore….. and now, of course, I’d love to speak to any couples who are getting married at Warwick house and are looking for a fun, friendly, enthusiastic wedding photographer.
