One of the things you don't see wedding photographers do (at least some wedding photographers) - is checking out the venues before the day - this enables me to find the best spots for groups, bride and groom portraits, and all the great shots you see in your wedding photography.

Now as a recent Dorset mover I'm still not an expert on Dorset locations (I'm getting there!) - so I went to visit a couple of places this last few days.

These were Parley Manor - which is a great wedding venue right by Bournemouth airport - and offers some great options for some great romantic photographs in its picturesque gardens.

The second (and by no menas least) was Kingston Maurward - this is a college near Dorchester, though you wouldn't know if from looking around! It has amazing grounds and I'm really looking forward to shooting there!
