Swarling Manor is nestled into the Chartham Downs just outside Canterbury and is surrounded by beautiful fields and agricultural buildings. This venue is literally at the end of my road. I’ve never photographed here before Mike & Clare asked me to photograph their intimate wedding in early 2021. They had 15 of their closest family members, a marquee set up on the grounds and it was a wonderful time of eating, drinking, music and speeches. Here are some of my favourite images from their wedding reception. Mike said…

Olly is brilliant. We have so many wonderful photos from our wedding and they really tell the ‘story’ of the day. It’s been an absolute pleasure working with Olly. He’s friendly, helpful and he stayed in touch regularly in the lead up to our wedding. On the day itself Olly struck the perfect balance between being ‘in the right place’ to get great photos and chatting with our guests – everyone said how much they enjoyed his company and how they forgot they were having their photos taken, which is exactly what we had hoped for. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Olly.
