A few of my favourite images from my final wedding of 2011. A beautiful day considering how late in the year was. Congratulations to Vicky and Adrian. (A little bit shorter on the text for this post as I felt I was waffling on a bit in previous posts. I would rather let the images…

Sometimes I sit here pondering for too long on where to start writing about each wedding I blog. Then I get writers block. Then it all goes wrong. So here’s Lyn’s and Ash’s amazing wedding I was honoured to shoot last year. It was also the first time I had worked with Robert Whetton (http://blog.rjwhetton.co.uk/)…

Good all round set of images, particularly like the detail shots on the stool, the drinking/dancing shots look great, looked like they had a lot of fun that night!

Stuart Webster - 01/17/2012 - 8:57 pm

A fabulous set Matt, your images build a great story of what looks like a great day. 26 made me laugh and 32 is beautiful.

Matt Tyler - 01/17/2012 - 9:07 pm

Fantastic set of photos Matt. I particularly love the dancing shots in the evening. Looks like it was a great time had by all. The black and white portrait of the boxer is gorgeous!

Ash Bryant - 01/17/2012 - 9:09 pm

Thanks Matt & Rob for these great images you both captured for us to look back and remember what a great day it was. You both are truly great photographers that love doing what you do, which I think you can tell by the images you take.

You both went above & beyond the role of wedding photographer, and became friends that are wedding photographers.

I can’t recommend Matt (& Rob) enough.

Peter Burkwood - 01/18/2012 - 2:54 pm

Another job well done Mr Fryer, love the beach one with the dog, smashing!

John Starns - 01/19/2012 - 12:28 pm

A brilliant collection of images Matt, simply beautiful!

Howard Lucas - 01/20/2012 - 10:19 am

Another cracking set, I love all the detail shots…the beach shot is well good. Looks like a fun party too!

John Johnston - 01/20/2012 - 12:27 pm

Excellent mate. The B+G one in the field with the sun setting is brillaint. Gotta love the dog ones too. Im a sucka for dogs. :-)

I could waffle on about this lovely homemade wedding for pages and pages but you would all get bored. So I’ll try and keep it short and sweet. I had known about the location and some of the details about Rob and Anna’s big day for a while, but never got to meet them properly…

A solid set Matt. My favourite being the ones at the side of the cliff. Your BW edits are pretty amazing, im a sucker for BW images.

John Starns - 01/13/2012 - 3:46 pm

Great collection of images Matt. I particularly like the monochrome of the Bride and Groom outside the church (18/30). Lovely processing!

Stuart Webster - 01/13/2012 - 4:54 pm

Another fabulous set Matt a strong narrative, great individual shots and lots of fun. I particularly like 17&20.

Phil Nunez - 01/16/2012 - 8:47 pm

Beautiful images. Really enjoyed viewing them. Lovely details, love the little boy on the sofa playing his game, really creative flash work. The dance shots and guitar shots, priceless!

Howard Lucas - 01/19/2012 - 11:30 am

Great set there Matt, fabulous details and Black & Whites.

Susannah and Andy | Tunnels Beaches | North Devon Wedding Photography

It is not often I don’t get to meet a set of clients before their day but with their work commitments and time constraints I only got to chat with the couple on skype video calls a couple of times. But I knew from our first chat they were one cool set of clients and…

Great details and great fun photographs.
The processing and lighting is fabulous.

Howard Lucas - 01/09/2012 - 2:22 pm

Fantastic venue, what a set….the couple must be thrilled. Looks like loads of fun. I love the B&G running out of the water. Excellent stuff.

Paul Andrews - 01/09/2012 - 7:55 pm

A fab set of photo as ever Matt your connection with them really comes through, and I love a vw camper at a wedding. Good work.

John Johnston - 01/09/2012 - 8:45 pm

What a fun wedding. How cool is that VW. Love the shots on the beach. Just perfect.

Matt Fryer - 01/09/2012 - 8:47 pm

Cheers for the feedback guys, it certainly was a fun filled day Buster the VW is a legend, nothing like an early bay window bus to make me smile.

John Starns - 01/10/2012 - 9:44 am

Beautiful collection of images. I particularly like the monochrome interior shots; really special!

Andy Rapkins - 01/12/2012 - 6:57 pm

Amazing location. Absolutely lovely collection of images. That old VW is gorgeous! Love those portraits Matt – epic sky. Would be over the moon to get these. Suoerb.

Stuart Webster - 01/12/2012 - 11:33 pm

A fabulous set of individual images Matt that come together to create a beautiful story. Throw in a VW, an amazing beach and your own super relaxed style and you’ve nailed it again.

Dominique Shaw - 01/17/2012 - 9:06 pm

What a fabulous day! :) Really great set of frames Matt – love the colours and the processing of the black and whites is lush

Gareth Heesom - 01/19/2012 - 9:48 am

What a fun couple, captured wonderfully. Amazing Venue. Great Lighting Matt, stunning images.

Matt Tyler - 01/20/2012 - 3:01 pm

What an amazing venue! What a really beautifully captured wedding Matt. Love the photos by the waterfront. A very brave couple!

North Devon Wedding Photography | Looking back at 2011

This isn’t really a “best of 2011″ post more of a retrospective look back at the year and what an amazing year it has been. The images I have chosen are a snap shot from weddings and engagement shoots I have shot throughout 2011 (and it’s not all of them, some I can’t share with…

Cracking set of images Mr Fryer, I have to say image 16 (left) is my favourite, one for above the mantelpiece.

That said a really solid and consistent job done all year, well done mate.

P

Matt Fryer - 01/05/2012 - 1:55 pm

Cheers Peter. 16 is a good shot, I have to admit it was a choice between that and the one I chose. The veill in 16 left added some extra dimension to the shot. But the one I chose was my first wedding at that venue, so holds a special place for me.

John Starns - 01/05/2012 - 2:00 pm

Some impressive work there Matt. I especially like image 21 (right) nice work fella! JS

Matt Fryer - 01/05/2012 - 2:02 pm

Cheers mate.

Stuart Webster - 01/05/2012 - 2:52 pm

You clearly had a fabulous year Matt the joy, happienss and love of each speacial day comes through in you images. 13 left would be my choice if pushed but they all say so much.

Have a great 2012. Stuart

Howard Lucas - 01/19/2012 - 11:32 am

What a year!….looks like you get a lot of fun. Cracking portraits.

But this year I spent that weekend doing something very very different. The Saturday was spent with my associate photographer, Howard, photographing a double wedding at the Watersmeet Hotel in Woolacombe. It was such…

North Devon Wedding Photography | Stuart and Sam | Tunnels Beaches Wedding

Really great set of images Matt, and an amazing venue!

Matt Fryer - 11/24/2011 - 10:29 pm

Cheers mate, it was a really great day and such an amazing venue. Hard to believe it’s in the UK and on my doorstep. Well not actually on my doorstep, but a short drive from my doorstep.

North Devon Wedding Photography | Lundy Island | Matt Fryer Photography

This year in May I was fortunate enough to be asked to cover an amazing wedding on the Island of Lundy way out in the Bristol Channel off the coast of North Devon. Despite summer knocking on the door the weather that weekend wasn’t the best, but it didn’t stop this amazing wedding. 3 days…
