  • Pre-Wedding Meetings/Pictures

    We do enjoy meeting our clients prior to their Wedding Day to discuss their details and take a pre-wedding picture. We get to know them better and it makes their Wedding Day even more special to us. Recently we met Cathy and Matt at Creeksea Place, and had an enjoyable time walking around the Venue, chatting about ideas for shots as well as taking some.  Sandra and Drew are getting married at The Fennes soon and we met up with them recently, although we kept pictures to the minimum as it was a bit chilly!Photo for Fennes Wedding

  • Wedding Photography for Katy & Rob at Gosfield Hall

    The stunning Gosfield Hall was the setting for the Wedding of Katy and Rob on a beautifully sunny day.  Our day started with David joining the men as they were getting ready and I stayed with the girls for their bridal preparations.  Everyone was relaxed making for some lovely pictures.  After the Ceremony in the Long Gallery, Katy and Rob had time to enjoy mingling with their Guests during the Drinks Reception in between some family group photographs.  Following a short break we took some relaxed and fun pictures of the Bridal Party and a few pictures of Katy and Rob.  After the Wedding Breakfast and coverage of the Speeches, we went with Katy and Rob for an evening stroll around the grounds for a few shots before photographing the First Dance to end our day.Wedding Photo at Gosfield HallWedding Photo at Gosfield HallWedding Photo at Gosfield HallWedding Photo at Gosfield Hall

  • Jewish Weddings Talk

    Last night Sandra & I were delighted to attend our regional photographer’s group and listen to our friend Dave Court talking about Jewish weddings, Bar Mitzvahs and Bat Mitzvahs. While we may never photograph a full Jewish wedding it is always useful to have an appreciation of other cultures and ceremonies. It was very interesting to see how how some of the traditions do cross into the many differing ceremonies we have photographed.

  • Wedding Photography for Stephanie and Simon at The Fennes

    A beautiful spring day greeted us for the Wedding of Stephanie and Simon at The Fennes Estate, Bocking.  Stephanie was bubbly with excitement from the moment we met her when she was getting ready until the end of the day.  Family and friends from all over the world were present and enjoyed relaxing in the beautiful surroundings of Fennes.  Stephanie and Simon left plenty of time, not only for us to do our creative shots, but for family groups, as well as socialising with their Guests.
