Victoria & Paul’s wedding at Hinchingbrooke House

Sunday, September 11th, 2011

Hinchingbrooke House is a very popular venue for me and I have to push my imagination at every wedding to give the bride and groom something new. Yesterday, I took Victoria and Paul in to the rose garden for what turned out to be a very romantic shoot at a time when the couple just needed a break from the hustle and bustle of the day.

I’m all set for tomorrows wedding at Hinchingbrooke House, Huntingdon. Fingers crossed for some more glorious weather, I’m sure it will help settle Victoria and Paul’s nerves if they know it’s going to be a beautiful day. I have a few ideas up my sleeve for some new unique images from the rose garden, a bit of sun would help here.

Hayley & Gary’s wedding at Chilford Hall, Cambridge

Sunday, September 4th, 2011

August seemed to be a month of wet weddings, so it made a change that we didn’t have to dodge the rain for the wedding of Hayley and Gary. Hayley got ready at the fabulous Sturmer Hall with the ceremony and reception taking place at Chilford Hall near Cambridge, a beautiful venue when bathed in sun. Gary has a passion for 60’s music memorabilia and this became a feature through day from the groomsmen shots to the evenings music and first dance, very cool. Hayley wore a beautifully designed Italian dress which was just perfect to photograph and flowed wherever she went.

Nicola & Jonny’s wedding at Sheene Mill

Monday, August 29th, 2011

After a long wedding on Saturday, the thought of rain all day at Nicola and Jonny’s wedding filled me with intrepidation. But I had no need to worry, as apart from a down poor mid afternoon, we were again blessed with some glorious weather. The wedding was held at Sheene Mill near Royston, and was organised to perfection with so many unique surprises through the day.  We were treated to an out door ceremony under a beautiful gazebo baked in sunshine, perfect for the setting on the edge of the river Mel. For me, the highlight of the day was the love and energy that flowed as the guests partied the night away, I got some really fun shots.

Sam & Harry’s wedding at Hinchingbrooke House

Monday, August 29th, 2011

The weekend was kicked off with me covering the wedding of Sam & Harry at St Mary’s church, Hitchin and Hinchingbrooke House, near Huntingdon. The weather men had promised some clear skies mixed with rain, perfect!! the rain came as we were waiting at the church for Sam to arrive and apart from this quick shower, we were blessed with some glorious weather. The highlight of the day for me was the first dance, the best I have photographed in my twenty years of weddings and one I wasn’t expecting. Sam and Harry started off with a nice romantic shuffle, nice and simple, then suddenly the dj appeared to scratch the track, omg I thought, what’s he playing at? The track then went in to some rocking tunes which the couple started to bop to, a fantastic end to my evenings work.

Big wedding weekend

Friday, August 26th, 2011

I have two weddings this weekend, the first at Hinchingbrooke House near Huntingdon and the second at Sheene Mill near Royston. I really hope the weather picks up for both couples, though they have no need to worry as I carry white umbrellas enabling me to take couples outside whatever the weather. Interior studio lights and mobile lighting cover the inside shots, so we still end up with stunning images whatever the weather.

Rachel & Jason’s wedding at Orton Hall, Peterborough

Saturday, August 20th, 2011

I had a great time yesterday capturing the wedding of Rachel and Jason at Orton Hall near Peterborough. The weather on Thursday was terrible and I slept with my fingers and toes crossed that night, praying for some sunshine for the big day. I wasn’t disappointed as I awoke to beautiful clear skies and Orton was bathed in glorious sunshine all day.

Alix an Dave’s Wedding at Anstey Hall, Cambridge

Sunday, August 14th, 2011

As promised, here are a few shots from Alix and Dave’s wedding at Anstey Hall, Cambridge. The day ran with military precision, which I presume was down to Alix’s planning, or maybe Dave with his military back ground?, either way, it was a perfect day and one I’m proud to have been a part of.
