At one of our Weddings recently we heard a great performance from Sister Sax (www.sistersax.co.uk) .
Definately worth a look if you want some relaxing live music at your reception!

We decided to meet Nina and Steve at their Wedding Venue, Kings Oak Hotel, High Beach, for their pre-wedding pictures. As this would be our first time in photographing a Wedding here, we were able to have a look around the Venue and being in the heart of Epping Forest find some nice spots around for a few pictures.

Wedding Photography for Lorraine & Steve – Fennes
Lorraine and Steve held their Wedding at The Fennes Estate, Bocking. Bridal preparations were taking place when we arrived, so after capturing these pictures together with some accessory shots. With Steve and the guys having arrived at Fennes we took a few pictures of them outside the house. Back to the girls who were now ready for their portraits. Annabelle, the Flowergirl and Bobby, the Pageboy, led the way into the Pavilion for the Ceremony. During the Ceremony it rained so afterwards Lorraine, Steve and their Guests had the Drinks Reception inside. Everybody mingled in the four rooms at the front of the house whilst we took some informal pictures. After a little while we were able to go outside for a few family group pictures and took a couple of pictures of Lorraine and Steve on the bridge before we were forced to return to the house due to the weather.
Fennes provides many opportunities for photographs inside anyway so we took some photographs in the Gold Room. We were able to get outside again before the Receiving Line and this allowed us to to do some fun bridal party pictures. The Speeches followed the Wedding Breakfast and Steve’s son Guy, the Best Man, delivered his speech packed with emotion. The early evening light made for some nice pictures of Lorraine and Steve together before the arrival of their Evening Guests.
Capturing images of Lorraine and Steve’s First Dance and a sunset pictures ended our coverage of their Wedding. -
Wedding Photography for Anne & Paul – Crabbs Barn, Kelvedon
The Crowne Plaza Resort, Five Lakes, was where Anne, and the girls were getting ready so it was there that we started our day. Knowing that time would be short, we still managed to capture the moments to tell the story. When we arrived at Crabbs Barn, Kelvedon, Paul, his Best Man and Ushers were ready for their pictures, before they were required to be out of sight! Following the Ceremony, Anne and Paul went for a short ride in the car whilst their Guests enjoyed the Drinks reception. On their return and just as we had taken a couple of pictures by the car, the heavens opened! This was forecast but it was slightly earlier than expected, and took a longer time to go! After taking some informal pictures we decided to take some of the smaller family group pictures in the Pavilion followed by taking Anne and Paul into the Barn and other sheltered areas around Crabbs Barn for a few pictures of them.
Although we work alot at Crabbs Barn and love it, we strive to give each couple different pictures and today was no exception, despite the weather! In between the courses of the Wedding Breakfast the sun came out and Anne and Paul wanted to have a couple of pictures taken in the grounds which we did. Once the Speeches had finished the larger family group pictures were taken before the evening Reception.
With a sunset picture and a rainbow picture later, Anne and Paul’s Wedding Day certainly had variety!

It was lovely to see Laura again and to take some photographs of her son, Rohan, before they returned to Australia! Rohan was brilliant, having just woken up from a nap when we arrived, within a few minutes, enjoying the attention!

Crabbs Barn Wedding Photography – Nicola & Kris
Crabbs Barn Wedding Photography
It was a a lovely day when we arrived at The Rivenhall Hotel, Kelvedon, for the getting ready pictures of Nicola. Nicola, her Mum and the Bridesmaids were busily getting ready but they were all relaxed, organised and enjoying themselves. Getting caught up in the emotions of the day comes with our job which we love, but the moment when Nikki’s Dad and Brother saw her for the first time, will be remembered by us for a long time to come. Moment over, we got on with the pictures!
At Crabbs Barn Kris and the guys had a few pictures taken before Nicola arrived. With the Guests seated, Nicola made her entrance into the Barn for the Civil Ceremony. After the Ceremony, Nikki and Kris led their Guests outside for the Drinks Reception. A little while later we took a few family group pictures and fun bridal party pictures . Just before the Wedding Breakfast Nicola and Kris joined us for a short walk around Crabbs Barn. 
After covering the Speeches and in the gap before the evening celebrations, Nikki and Kris wanted a few more pictures of the two of them in the lane and around. 
Nikki and Kris’ First Dance was extra special as the song they danced to was sung superbly by Kris’s Dad. A wonderful day! -
