Pip and Nick’s wedding at Hotel Tresanton was a truly wonderful day.
Once again the bride and groom were blessed with a dry and sunny day (the Gods looking down on KISS Photography once again?)
So Hotel Tresanton got used to its full potential, the tropical gardens, the balconies on the rooms, the wonderful outdoor twisty staircases, and of course the beach across the road.
Nicks south African family flew in for the wedding day and must have been overwhelmed at this wonderfully English wedding.
The champagne was flowing and the stunning bride and her dashing groom looked like they enjoyed every moment.
The photographs are stunning, and we love Hotel Tresanton as a truly fabulous wedding venue.

Another sunny wedding
At the weekend we photographed the wedding of Elaine and Chris at Shun Lee House, St.Ives.
The weather was terrible the day before and the day after. The wedding day itself, fantastic!
As we get to sit in on rather a lot of weddings, I cant remember when I last had a tear in my eye, but seeing Elaine after the service cuddling her children, all three of them crying with emotion, I welled up myself. It almost felt wrong taking a picture, but what an amazing photograph it is. A bride who is also having a emotional maternal moment with her children, at the same time in her beautiful wedding dress moments after she has just said ‘I do’ to the man she loves. It was one of the most moving moments I have ever seen from behind my lens and its a picture I know I will treasure as one of my rare moments.
Elaine was a beautiful bride and Chris the perfect gent. We had a wonderful day at this classy event.
Terry and Paul, went over and above the call of duty as the hosts at Shun Lee, guys you were amazing and thanks for everything t

Jo and Steven tie the knot….again!!
It was a real pleasure to photograph Jo and Steven’s wedding at The Carbis Bay Hotel St.Ives
The couple jetted in from Dubai, where due to legalities they had already had a small service.
Arriving in Cornwall, where all there friends and family joined them, some they hadn’t seen for months, they kicked off there wedding weekend with a beach BBQ. We were there, snapping a few informal shots, it was the first time the families had met, and a game of beach cricket seemed to seal the bond.
The next morning we spent with Jo getting ready where the champagne was flowing as ‘the girls’ got ready. Steven was on another floor and after a few attempts of trying to get him to start getting ready, he finally in his laid backed manner put his suit on for a few informal groom and best man shots, all done over a pint of course! ( we had to tempt him somehow)
The fabulous Carbis Bay Hotel was the perfect setting for such a fun, but classy wedding. Even through the rain nearly stopped the beach shots from happening we found perfect places we could photograph inside. But in the end the sun shone at the last moment and we were able to dash down to the beach and Jo and Steven were great. We had such fun, it was like being a guest rather than work. Jo was quite desperate to have her picture taken with the man in his speedos, but her new husband thought better of it so we refrained from that one.
The night ended with a fab firework display, that was quite late in starting, Rick sat for quite some time in the dark on his own on a bench, we couldnt even check what was going on as it was all a surprise, so mum was the word and it was luckily not to cold. It was worth it, a perfect end to the wedding album.
Jo and Steven we wish you both all the best, we had a fantastic weekend photographing your celebrations and if you ever have wedding number three??????
The day was also captured on video by Sarah and Kevin at Plan nine video productions, who as ever are fantastic to work with.
