As a Hampton Manor wedding photographer, I’ve photographed celebrations here across the year and it always feels considered, design-led, and genuinely warm. It’s the kind of venue where you can relax into the day, and your photos still feel elevated because the light, the spaces, and the atmosphere do so much of the work.
Hampton Manor suits couples who care about people and experience as much as the details- incredible food, thoughtful interiors, and a calm, unforced flow to the day. I’ll document it quietly as it unfolds, with gentle guidance for portraits so nothing ever feels overly posed. Expect true-to-life colour, beautiful light, and the real emotion of your day.
A Luxury Country House Wedding Venue in Solihull
Hampton Manor is known for its Michelin-starred menus, creative interior styling, and intimate spaces designed for heartfelt celebrations. Whether you’re planning an outdoor ceremony, a vibrant fusion celebration, or a classic church wedding followed by a reception at Hampton Manor, it’s a venue that photographs beautifully and feels genuinely warm.
The Ceremony Options
You can choose from:
- The rustic, romantic Birches outdoor barn
- Intimate indoor ceremony spaces
- The nearby historic church, just a short walk through the trees for a traditional service
The Courtyard Reception
The Courtyard is bright and modern – a brilliant setting for your wedding breakfast, and it transitions easily into an evening of dancing once the lights drop. Food is at the heart of Hampton Manor, so if you’re the kind of couple who cares about the guest experience, it’s a place people will still be talking about long after the wedding.
Hampton Manor Wedding Photographer
Hampton Manor gives you so much variety for portraits without ever needing to go far. The manor façade, the gardens, wood-panelled rooms, and the woodland paths all within easy reach. I keep portraits calm and comfortable, with gentle guidance so you still feel like yourselves (usually 10–20 minutes, then back to your guests). The result is natural photographs with true-to-life colour, beautiful light, and the atmosphere of the day woven through.
Real Wedding Highlights
One of my most meaningful weddings at Hampton Manor was Charlotte and Eddie’s – they were one of the first couples who trusted me with their wedding day, and photographing them here felt like a genuine full-circle moment. Their celebration had that perfect mix of elegance and energy, and I’ll always remember how it felt.
I’ve also photographed a traditional Chinese tea ceremony at Hampton Manor, which was such a beautiful part of the day to document. Quiet, emotional, and rich with family connection. It’s those personal moments and cultural traditions that make each wedding completely its own.
Real Weddings, not Styled Shoots
If you’d like to see how a full Hampton Manor celebration might together, head to my Real Weddings galleries. Every photograph across my website was taken at a real wedding, as it actually unfolded.
On the rare occasion I share a styled shoot, I’ll always say so. Styled shoots are brilliant for inspiration, but the pace is completely different and real weddings come with real timings, real emotion, and all the in-between moments you can’t plan.

Are You Searching for a Hampton Manor Wedding Photographer?
If you’re looking for a Hampton Manor wedding photographer who’s calm, unobtrusive, and there for the real moments, I’d love to hear what you’re planning.
My approach is relaxed and quietly observant, with gentle guidance when it helps. So you can stay fully present, and your photos bring you straight back to how it felt (the atmosphere, the people, the in-between moments you didn’t even notice happening).
Here’s what Charlotte and Eddie had to say:
“It’s so true that the day goes by in such a whirlwind to the point where your photos have reminded me of times during the day that I had completely forgotten and not just that, I can’t even remember you captioning the moment! You are a genius!”
