  • Photography for smaller wedding – Hylands Park

    Photography for smaller weddings – Hylands Park

    Sometimes we get asked for Photography for smaller weddings, which are always a pleasure to cover.

    Lisa got in contact with us in the early summer last year by recommendation, which is always nice to know! Lisa and Mark were going to have a small Wedding Ceremony at the Registry Office but wanted a few pictures beforehand. We arranged to meet Lisa and Mark together with their daughters at Hylands Park, Chelmsford.

    Although a dry day it was chilly and the girls were glad of their cardigans! Hylands Park provides some lovely photographic opportunities so off we went with the family to see what we could capture. We had an enjoyable time walking around, stopping to take some pictures where we all wanted to. This didn’t take too long and Lisa and Mark ended up with a nice selection of varied pictures around Hylands Park as a few memories of their Wedding Day.

    It was a lovely day for Becky and Marcus’ Church Wedding at Lavenham and their Smeetham Hall Barn Wedding Photography and reception. Becky, her Parents and Bridesmaids were getting ready at The Swan, Lavenham. When we arrived there earlier in the day preparations were well underway. We stayed a while in the room where the preparations were going capturing a few of these pictures before going off to photograph Becky’s Wedding Dress and accessories in another room. Essex Wedding PhotographerReturning to the girls it was time for the Bridesmaids to go and get changed and Becky followed soon after. With lots going on and time evaporating extremely quickly everyone was very focused!

    David decided to go to the Church during changing whilst I remained with the girls. So good to have the Church just up the road! Once Becky and the Bridesmaids were ready, I just took a couple of pictures of them before Becky’s Father came upstairs to see his daughter. It is one of those moments I love and I was happy to be there. My turn now to get my skates on and leave them and make my way to the St Peter & St Paul Church.Essex Wedding PhotographerDavid had taken the pictures of Marcus and his Groomsmen and they were inside the Church awaiting the arrival of Becky. The Bridesmaids and Becky arrived and entered the Church. After the service Becky and Marcus came out of the Church and went off to the side to allow their Guests to exit. The guests lined the path and showered the happy couple!Essex Wedding Photographer At the Church we took the few requested family pictures before leaving to go to Smeetham Barn.

    Drinks awaited everyone at Smeetham. After Becky and Marcus had some social time we went over to the House and grounds for a few pictures of them. Enjoying the weather everyone socialised outside and we got on with taking some informal pictures. Soon it was time for the Wedding Breakfast followed by the Speeches. Some great reactions captured!

    As the time before the Wedding Breakfast had been a little short,  the Bridal Party and us went over to the lake for a few fun relaxed pictures after the meal.Wedding Photographer Smeetham Hall Barn Keeping Becky and Marcus a little while longer, we took a few more pictures of them by the water. Returning to their Guests as the Evening Guests were now arriving.

    Becky and Marcus had time to socialise for a while.Later they cut their Wedding cake and took to the dance floor for their First Dance.

    Smeetham Barn is a lovely place if you get a sunset and Becky and Marcus did. A fantastic way to end our coverage of their Wedding.Smeetham Hall Barn Wedding Photography Thank you Becky and Marcus for letting us be your Wedding Photographers, a wonderful Wedding!

  • Family Pictures for Alison & Nathan

    Family Pictures for Alison & Nathan

    family pictures essex

    It was lovely to see Alison and Nathan again a few months ago for some new family pictures.

    Every now and then we go to see them to update their family pictures which we love doing. Elodie, who is nearly 4, had some pictures taken of her on her own while her brother Rupert was asleep. Elodie enjoyed showing what she can now do and showing us her favourite things. During this time Rupert, who is just one year old. woke up and gradually joined in. Getting the two of them together was tricky but we got there in the end! A lovely afternoon and nice to catch up with a nice family.
