SOUTH FARM WEDDINGS

I absolutely adore photographing weddings at South Farm. It is an incredibly stunning wedding venue that provides the ideal setting for unforgettable wedding photography. With its breathtaking countryside surroundings, enchanting Tudor farmhouse, picturesque gardens, South Farm is a dream location for us photographers, it even has pigs! As a documentary wedding photographer, it serves as the perfect backdrop to capture a wedding, and I thoroughly enjoy discovering creative ways to incorporate its stunning features into the couple’s unique wedding story. One aspect that I particularly appreciate is how the venue seamlessly flows, ensuring that you never feel stuck in the same spot for too long. It truly offers a diverse range of settings for capturing your narrative-driven wedding photos.

I was lucky enough to get to witness the team bring home wedding venue of the year at this year’s wedding industry awards.

WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY AT SOUTH FARM

As a documentary wedding photographer, my couples often express their dislike for being photographed and prioritize spending more time having fun with their guests rather than posing for photos. Keeping that in mind, I genuinely believe that South Farm serves as an excellent venue for storytelling. Its various spaces enable guests to explore and enjoy themselves, while offering numerous picturesque locations for couple portraits that are conveniently close to one another. This means we’ll only need to step away briefly to capture a sufficient number of beautiful portraits before I can swiftly return you to the festivities at the bar!

KIND WORDS

“We could not have chosen a better photographer for our wedding! If you are normally shy infront of the camera but want gorgeous natural photos capturing the emotion of your big day, then Erica is the photographer for you. She put us at ease in front of the camera at our engagement shoot which got us ready for the wedding day. Erica captured so many great memories, without us even noticing her right in front of us on the day! This meant that her documentary style really came to life. The online gallery and photo box that we sent to us afterward were gorgeous. Would 100,000/10 recommend to everyone!” Elana and Rich, South Farm 2022
