Lewis and Andy are artists with a camera! They are incredibly talented, and the warmest people. Our Caius college wedding pictures are beyond anything we ever imagined: artistic, romantic, and just stunning. Their passion for what they do shines through in every picture - from the exquisite details and striking compositions, to the fun, fleeting moments they somehow caught.

Paoula & Austen

We can't have dreamed of a better pair than Andy and Lewis to have captured our Wedding day in such a special way! They continously stayed in touch with us from the time we booked them up until the big day. I personally think they are the reason our day flowed so well! They think about everything and always one step ahead to make sure everything goes to plan. I can't thank you both enough, you are incredible at what you do.

Lizzie & Alex

We honestly cannot recommend Andy and Lewis enough. From start to finish, they were absolutely amazing. They made us feel so special and genuinely like stars on our wedding day. They created such a relaxed, fun atmosphere that we were able to completely enjoy every moment.

Burghley House Wedding Photography | Philipa & Sam’s Elegant Stamford Wedding

A Timeless Burghley House Wedding in Stamford

Burghley House is one of the most breathtaking wedding venues in Stamford, and Philipa & Sam’s day showcased everything that makes this historic estate so extraordinary. From bridal prep in the charming Bull & Swan to emotional chapel vows, luxury Rolls Royce photos at Burhgley's main gate, and regal moments in the famous Heaven Room, this was the perfect celebration for any Burghley House wedding photographer to document.

Whether you’re dreaming of grand architecture, sweeping gardens, or elegant indoor spaces, this wedding is full of inspiration for anyone planning a Burghley House wedding.

Bridal Prep at The Bull & Swan, Stamford

The morning began at The Bull & Swan, a beautiful boutique hotel in Stamford that always provides the perfect setting for relaxed bridal prep. Philipa and her bridesmaids filled the room with laughter, excitement, and a few emotional moments too.

Meeting the Groom & Groomsmen at Burghley House

We met Sam and his groomen at Burhgley House, the perfect backdrop for classic, stylish portraits that make the most of the venue’s historic exterior.

We got a lovely photo of Sam's twin brother doing his button hole, before heading to the front of the venue for photos with the rest of the groomsmen.

A Beautiful Ceremony in Burghley House Chapel

Philipa arrived in her father’s beloved Rolls Royce for the ceremony in the Burghley House Chapel.

Burghley House’s private chapel is one of the most breathtaking ceremony spaces in the UK. With towering stained glass, ornate carvings, and soft natural light, it creates an unforgettable atmosphere for couples and photographers alike.

Rolls-Royce & Bridge Portraits

Having Philipa's father's Rolls-Royce was a lovely personal detail that made their photos even more meaningful. After the ceremony, we drove around the grounds for some beautiful scenic moments at the main gate and a lovely bridge setting that overlooked Burghley House.

Drinks Reception in the Burghley House Gardens

Guests enjoyed a sunny afternoon in the gardens, surrounded by Burghley House’s iconic architecture and relaxed summer vibes.

Couple Portraits: Grounds & Heaven Room

Burghley House offers some of the grandest backdrops for wedding photography - from the golden gates to the famous Heaven Room. Philipa & Sam embraced every moment, giving us a gorgeous variety of elegant, romantic, and editorial-style portraits.

Evening Party & Dancefloor Moments

Guests absolutely made the party, full of singing, dancing, and some brilliant moves. A lively finish to a perfect Burghley House wedding.

Thank you Andy and Lewis, we love our photographs and are so pleased we had you as our photographers for our wedding. Everyone was so impressed with how smart you looked and we loved how relaxed you made us feel, particularly after the pre-wedding shoot, we were not worried about our photos at all!

What a day this was.

We'd been looking forward to this one for a while and it definitely didn't disappoint. Black tie at one of our favourite venues, sunshine all day, an incredible group of family and friends, and a couple that trusted us completely.

Honestly, these two made our job so easy. They were up for every idea we threw at them and completely leaned into the editorial style we love creating. The result is one of our favourite galleries we've ever produced at @theoldhallely.

Congratulations again guys, and thank you for letting us be a part of it. 🤍

Drone in the air for the wide shot, straight back to the camera for the close moments. Worth every second for images like these. 🤍

What an absolute blast of a wedding with these two at @theoldhallely on Wednesday.

We've been dying to share some photos, but they had a blessing today with the rest of their friends and family, many of whom hadn't seen Charlie's dress yet. Now that's all done... We are finally safe to post! 😅
