Nikki & Mike please take a bow...completed it mate.

Yesterday was so much fun spending the day with & Mike at their wedding. Such a lovely couple & awesome guests. The sun baked us all but that just added to the vibes. Thanks for making me a small part of your celebrations. Here’s a sneak peek for you all.

It was my second time getting to be a Whistle Barns wedding photographer this year and seeing the venue transform as the seasons have changed was awesome. Hope to be back soon.

Great to work alongside these great wedding suppliers

Some people walk into a room and instantly lift the energy... Demi is absolutely one of those people. Talk about a shooting the best couple...I give you & and a few pics from their
wedding day.

Can’t believe this was my first time shooting at Norton Fields considering it’s only 15 minutes from home. It is such a beautiful venue and hopefully not my last visit there.

From the moment I arrived to the second I left I was surrounded by the loveliest bunch of people all having the best day. Thank you Demi & Adi for making me a small part of your celebrations.

ps...Never show anyone that burying sausage video...they wouldn’t understand 🙂

Fantastic to work alongside such great suppliers

Absolutely buzzing to have picked up FOUR more awards in the latest competition! 🏆✨⁠

It’s always such an honour (and honestly a bit surreal) to see my work recognised alongside so many insanely talented photographers. Feeling very grateful, very inspired, and maybe just a little bit proud too.⁠
⁠
Huge thank you to everyone who trusts me to capture their moments, this wouldn’t happen without you 🤍⁠

The 2025 wedding season has officially wrapped and wow, what a ride.

From forests to barns, grand halls to family homes, and even a few straight-out-of-a-fairytale medieval buildings this year took me everywhere. I’ve chased golden sunsets, thrown shapes on packed dancefloors, herded thousands of guests into group shots, sneakily swiped a canapé (or three), and whispered a few prayers to the weather gods along the way.
Every couple, every venue, every moment…absolute magic.

So here it is: my Best of 2025 Wedding Photos https://jscoates.com/best-wedding-photos-of-2025/

A huge thank you to my incredible 2025 couples, the amazing wedding suppliers who make it all happen, and anyone who fancies having a nosy at the blog.

Here's my Discover the best wedding photos of 2025. All the beautiful moments & epic stories. Another award winning year filled with fantastic couples.
