ADVERTORIAL // DUNADRY HOTEL AND GARDENS
DUNADRY // HOTEL & GARDENS A CHAT WITH PHOTOGRAPHER LYNN STANFIELD DESCRIBE DUNADRY HOTEL & GARDENS IN 3 WORDS. Relaxed, beautiful, bright. WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE INTERIOR AREA TO PHOTOGRAPH? So many to choose from! I think the ceremony room is lovely - its a pleasure to shoot ceremonies with the gorgeous natural light coming in the windows. The new ballroom is stunning too! WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE EXTERIOR AREA TO PHOTOGRAPH? The gardens are fabulous, with that stunning tree, but stealing the couple away down to the river is probably my favourite and the little path under the trees is so romantic. WHAT MAKES DUNADRY UNIQUE FOR YOU? We had our own wedding there! We loved it and had an amazing day so every time I’m back photographing weddings I remember being there as a bride, wandering round the gardens in the sunshine, strolling beside the river, cutting our cake in front of the fireplace and dancing the night away in the ballroom. I love that our cork is still

there too. WHAT PERSONALITIES BEST FITS WITH DUNADRY? I think Dunadry is perfect for a couple who want a relaxed, fun wedding and who want a lovely balance between having photos and spending time with guests. There is no need to go off somewhere else for photos as the grounds are so gorgeous with enough little hidden corners to steal away for some romantic moments together too. WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE SEASON AT THE HOTEL? I’ve photographed in all seasons and honestly love them all, from cosy winter weddings with the fire lit and twinkling candles, to hot summer days, or the gorgeous soft light of autumn. But my favourite is probably summer, with guests out in the gardens, live musicians playing and wandering round the grounds with the happy couple, before capturing some gorgeous evening light photos after dinner. WE BELIEVE YOU ARE PART OF THE DUNADRY FAMILY WITH
