One of my favourite Bath wedding, and Hamswell House is one of those venues that does something particular to the people inside it.
Hamswell House is just outside Bath, on the edge of the Cotswolds.
The stone. The scale of it. The way that doorway has been standing long enough to have seen a few hundred years of other people’s significant moments. Something about that weight makes people settle. The formality drops. The ones who love each other most find their way to each other without being asked.
I’m not just watching the couple on a wedding day. I’m watching the whole human landscape of it. What I’m looking for in those group moments isn’t a clean line of people facing the camera. It’s the father who goes a little quiet when he looks at her. The groomsman who can’t stop laughing even when everyone else has settled. The bridesmaid at the edge of the frame who mouths something to her best friend and sets the whole thing off again. Every person there is experiencing this day through their own history with the couple, and that shows, if you’re watching for it.
That’s what I want the gallery to hold. Not just the couple’s story. The feeling of every person who loves them, caught in the moment it was most visible.
I work across digital, 35mm film, and camcorder, layered together so the gallery holds all of it. The stills. The movement. The moments that breathe differently depending on the format.
This is what a Bath wedding at Hamswell House looks like when nobody is performing.
If this feels aligned, you’re very welcome to reach out. There’s no pressure, just a conversation.
