Farm, marquee and tipi weddings are a popular choice across Staffordshire and the Midlands, offering couples the freedom to create a day that feels personal, relaxed, and entirely their own. From family farms and private fields to countryside estates and rural gardens, these weddings allow you to celebrate in a setting that holds meaning.
The Midlands is full of beautiful open spaces, making it ideal for outdoor weddings that feel informal yet thoughtfully planned — perfect for couples who want a celebration that reflects them rather than a fixed venue format.
Photographing farm, marquee and tipi weddings is even more so about capturing the day as it unfolds naturally. These celebrations often flow between indoor and outdoor spaces, with guests mingling freely and moments happening organically so it's about having the experience to be in the right place at the right time. The changing light throughout the day plays a huge role — from bright afternoon sun over open fields to warm evening light and festoon lighting after dark you'll need a photographer who can advise you and is skilled to handle all lighting situations.
Open landscapes offer space — both physically and emotionally. Fields, farmland, barns, and surrounding countryside provide simple, timeless backdrops that allow connection and emotion to take centre stage.
Tipis and marquees photograph beautifully as the day moves into evening. Canvas textures, wooden structures, and warm lighting create an intimate atmosphere that feels especially suited to relaxed countryside weddings.
Farm weddings are my favourite type of wedding day - it helps that my family are farmers so I feel most at home with weddings in the countryside. My approach to farm, marquee and tipi wedding photography as always is relaxed and documentary-led. The more animals, the better.
I’ll guide you gently when needed, particularly for portraits or group photographs, but the emphasis is always on capturing what’s real. The result is a collection of images that feels honest, warm, and timeless — a true reflection of your wedding day.
Farm and marquee weddings often involve thoughtful planning, especially around timings, lighting, and layout. Having photographed many outdoor weddings across Staffordshire and the Midlands, I’m comfortable working with changing weather, varied lighting conditions, and flexible schedules.
This experience allows you to relax and enjoy the day, knowing every part of your celebration is being documented with care and attention.
