professional photographer for Barnsdale Lodge Rutland Water wedding photography
Here are a few samples from a lovely wedding recently at Barnsdale Lodge in Rutland near Rutland Water.
Barnsdale Lodge has rightly earned a reputation for high class service and excellent food. The “Barn” has been transformed in to an exquisite venue by the inclusion of canopies and drapes that give the impression of being in a marquee, but with the security of knowing you are actually in a solid building regardless of the English weather!



The venue has an idyllic courtyard design, normally open to the public this would be made private for you on your special day offering great backdrops of either stone-clad buildings or plants or a small water feature. It really is ideal to have your guests congregate here where they can be looked after by the excellent staff at Barnsdale while we take some photographs.


Barnsdale has more to offer than just a courtyard, though, take a quick stroll around the corner to find open spaces, with some lovely garden features to help frame your more personal wedding photographs


We aim to stay quite discreet , but we appreciate you may find it easier to relax in these open garden areas – and generally encourage the other guests to stay in the courtyard to give us just five minutes or so to capture those more personal photographs we know you really want.
