My first time at the new registry office room at Insole Court and what a beauty it was. I will always have a special space in my heart for smaller wedding days like this one, and the new registry office is the perfect setting.

Joanna + Tim | Creative + Colourful Cardiff Wedding
After having to postpone to 2021, Joanna + Tim were able to finally celebrate with their friends and family in the beautiful city of Cardiff. Having their ceremony at the beautiful Cardiff Registry Office, followed by reception at St Catherines Hall in Pontcanna. Nestled in the grounds of a church, with plenty of space for outdoor games. It was the perfect place for an outdoors reception. Read more to see some photos of their colourful and creative wedding day.
Cardiff Registry Office Modern Wedding | Rosanna + Pete
After having to rearrange their weddings a few times due to Covid, these two finally were able to celebrate in full yesterday at Cardiff City Hall and Jacob’s Market in Cardiff. My first full day wedding in over 7 months, and also my first outdoor wedding in nearly a year.
Cardiff City Hall Modern Micro Wedding | Lawrence + Ayah
Lawrence and Ayah chose to keep it small and have their closest friends and family with them when they tied the knot.
We started the day at St Davids Hotel in Cardiff Bay where they both got ready, and then we went to Cardiff Museum to get some portraits. The sun was shining for them, and only rained as we travelled. Making me a very happy photographer!
Their small and intimate wedding reception was held in The Ivy in Cardiff’s St David’s centre.
Camera Shy? No problem | Mary W-Thomas Photo + Film
Probably the most common thing that’s said to me when I first chat to couples, is that they are a little bit camera shy. They don’t like posing but want some natural and relaxed portraits on their wedding day, Now I’m not the kind of person that create moments by posing people, but I do have a few tricks on ways to get natural shots on your wedding day. If you had looked through my portfolio, you won’t see a single person looking awkward or acting uncomfortable. That’s because I make sure people feel comfortable and confident.
Make them Laugh
If you have known me for any amount of time, you will know I love to make people laugh. It’s by the far the best way to make people feel comfortable. Taking away any nerves, and making people instantly feel relaxed.
2. Focus on each other
My second tip is to focus on each other. I know this is difficult when you’re not used to being in front of the camera, but focusing on your partner. You’ll forget I’m there, and you can enjoy those moments as well as capturing authentic emotion on camera.
