Kimbolton Castle is a beautiful venue for a wedding and I was privileged to be a part of Claire and Conors big day on Saturday. With such fantastic weather all day, I was able to get some lovely shots of the happy couple both in and around the Castle. Kimbolton is a perfect choice for a wedding, with such a majestic exterior and ornate interior, a photographers dream.
I have just returned from a great pre wedding shoot with Sarah and Simon who will be getting married at the beautiful Barrington Hall in September. I met the couple in Godmanchester and spent the morning exploring the surrounding countryside and shooting some beautiful images. The weather was glorious which really brought out the richness and colours in the greenery and rivers and Sarah and Simon really got in to the shoot and seemed to relax in minutes getting in to the romantic swing of things. Hopefully they left enjoying the shoot as much as I did and will appreciate the fun shot we did in the graveyard?
The wedding of Victoria and Kieran must have been one of the hottest wedding days that I have ever photographed, but it was so much fun and a real pleasure to be a part of. The marque based wedding took place in the beautiful village of Ashdon near Saffron Walden in Essex.
What lovely weather Elspeth and John had celebrating their recent marriage at the Old Bridge Hotel earlier today. After getting married at a private ceremony earlier this week, the happy couple invited all their family and friends to the Old Bridge to enjoy some fine cuisine and the glorious weather.
Kimbolton Castle was the location for yesterdays shoot and what a fun time I had. The sun was shinning on Claire and Conor when I met them in Kimbolton village for a quick look around the church before heading off to the castle for their pre wedding session. They seemed to have a great time and really appreciate my sense of humour and style as we walked around the castle grounds with me getting excited at every feature. I get such a feeling of satisfaction when I capture some beautiful romantic moments between a couple in love.
Hinchingbrook House near Huntingdon was the venue for yesterdays wedding of Sharon and Dave. We had a great day and the weather was fantastic which enabled the guests to enjoy drinks on the patio area while I took the happy couple around the house grounds. The evening was topped off when the wedding party let of twenty chinese lanterns.
Swynford Paddocks near Newmarket was the venue for my wedding yesterday and what a day we had. I had my work cut out with Paul being around 6ft 6in tall and Victoria, well lets just say she was a lot shorter! I knew the positioning of the couple would be vital if I wanted to maintain the intimate romantic style my couples know and book me for. But after the pre wedding shoot, I knew Victoria and Paul would be great fun to work with and we got some stunning shots through the day. It was also nice to emphasize the height difference in some quirky shots that I hope the couple will love as much as I do.
Yesterday I had the pleasure in photographing the wedding of Nicola and Daniel at The Old Brideg Hotel, Huntingdon. The Old Bridge is a lovely venue that serves fantastic food and is an ideal setting for a boutique wedding. I chose a few new locations for the couple shots, as they say, variety is the spice of life and it’s always good to keep your ideas fresh. Nicola and Daniel were great fun to work with and really relaxed as the day unfolded leaving me with some great shots to incorporate in the album design.
I will be exhibiting at two more weddings fairs over the next few months. The first is at Wood Green, near Huntingdon on the 28th Feb from 11am until 4pm. The second will be at Normanton Park Hotel on the South Shore of Rutland water near Oakham on the 28th March. Going on past experience, both shows should prove very useful for next years bookings.
Yesterday I photographed the wedding of Jill and Chris at Hinchingbooke House and wow what weather we had!! The biggest storms for months kept us pinned inside all day but we still had a great time and got some lovely shots. I photograph weddings in Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, Northamptonshire, East Anglia, Lincolnshire, in fact I travel the whole of the UK if requested but love Hinchingbrooke House and feel it’s one of the best wedding venues around. With beautiful grounds and an amazing interior any photographer is spoilt for choice when it comes to wedding photography. Most couples would be tearing their hair out with the weather, but Jill and Chris were so relaxed and so much fun to photograph and be with during their special day.
