Clifton Park Museum Wedding Photography

I’m a wedding photographer based in Sheffield, and I provide wedding photography services throughout South Yorkshire.

I’ve shot a few different weddings at Clifton Park Museum, and it’s a great place to choose to formalise your wedding, whether it’s small or large.

Clifton Park House is a Grade II listed Georgian house which hosts the registration service for Rotherham Town Council. It is a beautiful location for a wedding, decorated with historical family portraits and set in beautiful parkland.

Clifton Park Museum Wedding Photo Tips

CLifton Park Museum makes a great wedding vene in South Yorkshire because it is surrounded by ideal locations for your wedding photos. Here are a few of my ideas for how the venue can be used on your wedding day.

Wedding Portrait Photograph Ideas

Set in beautiful parkland, the classic Georgian house has plenty of opportunity for excellent locations for your wedding portraits. Here are a few places I have taken wedding photos at before:

In the Rock Garden by the pond and waterfall
In the Memorial Garden surrounded by Rhododenrons
In front of the Bandstand
In the Fun Park

Family Group Photograph Ideas

Group photos generally need space and some shelter. They are best taken out of direct sunlight and with a fairly simple backdrop. For a wedding at Clifton Park Museum I would recommend taking photos either:

In front of the bay window of the house facing in to the park
In front of the main entrance to the house using the beautiful Georgian columns
In the open parkland

Confetti Photograph Ideas

Clifton Park Museum allows your guests to throw confetti outside. Depending on the size of your wedding, you can either walk through a tunnel of your guests throwing confetti (better for big wedding parties), or have your guests stand around you in a horse shoe (better for smaller wedding parties).

Why Choose Me to Photograph Your Wedding at Clifton Park Museum?

I’ve been photographing weddings since 2014, so I have a lot of experience – especially with the Great British weather! I photograph weddings all year round, and I am very used to taking beautiful, relaxed, informal photos that capture moments in the bright sunshine and the greyest rainy day.

I like to work with my couples to cpature their wedding day as it unfolds, snapping all the magical moments as they happen. I’m very used to working with couples that don’t enjoy having their photo taken (I don’t like having my photo taken either!).

When you book me as your wedding photographer we will chat a couple of times leading up to your wedding, so that I can answer any questions you might have and capture all the information that I need to be in the right place at the right time. I want to understand what you want from your wedding photos, and the vibe you want for your wedding day, as well as you do.

I live in Sheffield and work all over South Yorkshire and Derbyshire.

Who I work with

I mainly work with couples who are planning their wedding on their own terms. They usually want an untraditional wedding, that focusses on them spending time with the people they love the most and eating good food!

I welcome working with couples from all backgrounds and strongly believe that all love is love.

Clifton Park Museum Wedding Photography Packages

My wedding photography packages start at just 2 hours of coverage for £650. I generally find that 2 hours is enough time to photograph everyone arriving at Clifton Park Museum, the ceremony, some confetti, then some family group photos and couple portraits (if you want them!).

If you would like additional coverage to capture you getting ready for your wedding, or have me join you at your reception venue, then additional hours are charged at £300 each.

I offer short coverage wedding photography with no restrictions throughout the year; and all your lovely wedding photos are delivered in one week after your wedding.
