Lizzy & Michael, a half-day wedding at Talhenbont Hall, Abersoch, north Wales

On Saturday 5th April 2025, I had the pleasure of photographing Lizzy and Michael’s wedding at the fabulous Talhenbont Hall in North Wales. They chose m half-day wedding package and what a beautiful few hours it turned out to be — full of elegance, charm, and the kind of natural backdrops that make this venue so special.

Lizzy and Michael chose to have a ‘first look’ in the ornamental garden before the ceremony — a private moment for just the two of them, tucked away in one of the most picturesque corners of the estate. It’s a lovely touch that more couples are opting for, and it always creates a calm and intimate moment before the formalities begin.

The ceremony itself took place outside, bathed in sunshine, with the historic house deep in the North Wales countryside. Talhenbont Hall offers a truly romantic setting for outdoor weddings, and this one couldn’t have been more perfectly timed with the weather.

After the ceremony, we took a walk down through the grounds to the river and woods. This is one of my favourite parts of the Talhenbont estate for creative photography — the textures, the light, and the landscape all combine beautifully. Lizzy and Michael were fantastic to work with and we had a bit of fun exploring different ideas for their portraits.

This was a half-day package, which included up to 5 hours of photography — starting

with pre-ceremony moments like the first look, through to the ceremony, couple portraits, relaxed coverage of family and guests afterwards and finishing with the wedding speeches. For couples looking for focused coverage of the key parts of the day, it’s a really popular option. It also includes all edited images in high resolution, a secure online gallery, and full personal usage rights.

Talhenbont Hall never disappoints — and with a couple as warm and easy-going as Lizzy and Michael, it was a genuine pleasure to be part of it all.

If you're planning a wedding at Talhenbont Hall (or anywhere in North Wales) and are considering a shorter photography option, do take a look at the Half-Day Package on my website — it's a perfect fit for more intimate or condensed wedding days.
