What are the benefits of using Ashridge House Recommended/Preferred Suppliers?

The team at Ashridge have carefully curated their recommended suppliers list to offer a selection of businesses who all love, respect and, critically, know the venue very well.  We have worked closely with the events team for years and have shot weddings in all seasons and all weather. As a result we know all of the obvious and not so obvious locations for beautiful couple sessions.  We know how the sun moves around the grounds across the seasons and where to go when it's windy or raining. 

We respect the fact that the gothic Great Hall was built in the early 1800s and is a beautiful but dark space.  We are not only Sony European Imaging Ambassadors but also Rotolight Masters of Light and it is no coincidence that we are also preferred suppliers at other historic venues such as the Royal Palaces, Blenheim Palace and the Bodleian Libraries.   At its simplest - we are specialists in being able to create absolutely beautiful quality photography and films in old and dark buildings .
