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?
Friday was another busy day for me as I shot the pre wedding shoot of Sandrine and Chris straight after their family lifestyle shoot. We shot the lifestyle shoot in the families garden but headed off to the beautiful Cherry Hinton Park for the pre wed. The park was busy with people enjoying the glorious sunshine but once the couple got over their initial nerves of being watched, they really got in to the swing of things and helped to produce some great shots.
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.
I shot the pre wedding session of Stephanie and Doug at Hambleton Hall yesterday. Hambleton Hall is situated on a peninsular of Rutland water and commands both beautiful views of the lake and surrounding countryside. I am going to shoot Stephanie and Dougs wedding in a totally different style to most and probably won’t say a word to them all day. I will definitely be utilising a full documentary or fly on the wall style of photography which will test my artistic flare and ability to capture the essence of the day.
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.
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.
