Maes Manor is one of the most picturesque venues in Blackwood, offering elevated views of the Sirhowy Valley. As a photographer, I love the mix of the grand Georgian manor architecture and the sprawling manicured lawns. Whether we are using the Islwyn Suite for large celebrations or the garden for sunset portraits, the venue provides a classic, timeless backdrop for your wedding photos.
Don't worry—Maes Manor has plenty of characterful indoor spaces. The grand staircase and the elegant interior rooms offer beautiful natural light and period features that are perfect for indoor portraits. I am experienced at adapting to South Wales weather, ensuring your documentary-style photos look magical regardless of the rain.
Yes! Maes Manor’s elevated position on Maesrudded Hill makes it a spectacular location for aerial photography. I can use a drone (weather and safety permitting) to capture the scale of the manor and the stunning valley views, giving you a unique perspective of your wedding venue that ground-level shots can't match.
I know how excited you’ll be to see your photos! I typically deliver your full, personally edited online gallery within 1-2 weeks. This includes two sets of memories: every image in vibrant natural color and a classic black-and-white version.
Absolutely. I am based in Griffithstown, South Wales, and have photographed many weddings across Gwent and Monmouthshire. I know the best spots around Maes Manor to catch the light and the most scenic views of the Chartist Bridge and surrounding countryside.
