COVID-19 distanced Portrait of Sue and Ollie the Collie! We met Sue and went for a walk with Ollie to an outdoor location near our studio.
Sue wanted some pictures of herself with Ollie which she had been unable to achieve. We generally prefer the effects of a longer lens for portraits, COVID-19 just makes sure we use it and keep back.
We have worked with Sue for some years at Fennes, where she is one of the Wedding co-ordinaters.
Of course we couldn’t resist a portrait of Ollie also.

It was lovely weather for this PR job at Bannatyne’s in Chingford a few months ago. This was during Covid-19.
A few pictures were required of Paul the General Manager. There wasn’t any need to go into Bannatyne’s for the pictures, we made use of the outside of the building. Pictures like these are used for the Company’s marketing promotion.
This was our first Fennes Covid-19 Wedding. It was a different Wedding but nonetheless an amazing one! Hillary and James were due to get married in August this year in front of all their family and friends. Due to Covid-19 this could not happen. However they decided to get married on their chosen date in August anyway.
No Guests!
The big celebration will be next year when they can be with their family and friends. On this day they had no guests!
Hillary and James’ Wedding Day was wonderful! The weather was fabulous allowing them to have an outside Wedding Ceremony.
When David and I arrived at Fennes, Hillary and James were applying the finishing touches to the decoration of the new Gazebo. It looked beautiful! James then made sure ‘Zoom’ would work.
Once Hillary and James were happy with all the arrangements we took a few pictures of both of them before the start of the Ceremony.
The doors in the Gold Room opened, the music played and Hillary made her way down the steps and across the grass towards the Gazebo. The Ceremony was lovely. Hillary and James said their vows and exchanged Wedding rings.
Special Witnesses!
Hillary and James had asked David and I before their Wedding Day if we would be their Witnesses and we were very happy to be asked to carry out this for them. Wonderful!
Time for some pictures
Once the formalities were completed, Hillary and James enjoyed a celebratory drink! After a while we took Hillary and James for a stroll around the grounds.
We made sure they had a variety of pictures taken inside and out but wanted to keep a few ideas for pictures next year.
Hillary and James, you are a very lovely couple and the Wedding was wonderful! Thank you Hillary and James for asking us to photograph your Wedding and for being your Witnesses, we loved it! We are so looking forward to seeing you again next year!
A huge ‘thank you’ to Kirsty and Sue of Fennes, for all your help in making Hillary and James’ Fennes Covid-19 Wedding such a success. No problems or worries, just joy! We love working with you!
We did an Outdoor Engagement Shoot for Caroline and Tom. Having called off at the first attempt due to heavy rain, our second attempt proved to be successful!
We met them at Danbury Lakes to get to know them a little ahead of their Fennes wedding. Having reduced their number of guests they are still proceeding!
The Outdoor Engagement Shoot went well with some nice relaxed pictures. We are looking forward to taking their wedding pictures.
We took a couple of jobs, in quick succession, commercial work at Ellisons Solicitors. This happened in July this year. Headshots and a couple of group shots were required in their Chelmsford Office for one set.
A big group picture and a few smaller group shots for their Ipswich Office was required for the other. Covid-19 does not prevent us from doing this type of work, masks and social distancing are par for the course!
Marieka got in touch with us in July regarding Environmental family pictures Epping Forest photoshoot. This we could do within the guidelines of Covid-19, social distancing of course.
Marieka suggested an afternoon in Epping Forest which was a good idea. We have used the area several times, it’s so vast and you can find quieter spots. The weather was good for us on the afternoon for the pictures. Warm and sunny, although we chose the more sheltered areas for the pictures.
Marieka and Richie had not had many photos of them with Leo, their 18 month old son. Now was the time they wanted some taken. Leo had been asleep in the car. We had a little walk and found a quiet spot so he could wake up properly. Time is no problem to us when this happens. We are more than willing to take more time to get the right pictures.
We had a nice afternoon and ended up with a variety of pictures for Marieka and Richie to choose from.
We were really happy with the Environmental Family Pictures Epping Forest, so was Marieka and Richie. See their review on Facebook!
Colchester PR Photography for local plastics supply Company CWPS
Great to be able to help out at CWPS Limited for a quick photoshoot one morning recently. They needed a picture for the local paper and after that wanted a few more pictures. As a building trade Company pictures outside were wanted and we were very lucky to be able to do these before the rain fell!
Maeann and Mike wanted their Engagement session with bike. Not just any bike but their shiny Harley-Davidson.
The wedding will be in a few weeks time at Wivenhoe House so it was great to catch up ahead of the big day. We met them at their home on Mersea Island to go over the wedding details and then went off for some pictures!
They have ended up with a range of different shots, with and without the bike. We enjoyed a laugh together which bodes well for the wedding!
It was lovely to see Anna, Leon and Theo again recently for some Home Portraits. Anna and Leon were married at Leez priory in March this year and we were their Wedding Photographers.
Anna got in touch with us again after baby Hugo was born. Anna and Leon wanted some pictures of the four of them at their home on Mersea Island. Absolutely fine with us, that’s what we like as well.
It was a beautiful morning and Theo was happy playing outside as well as co-operating when it came to take some family pictures. Hugo was a couple of weeks old and was so good. Great to see this lovely family again and we ended up with a nice selection of Home Portraits.
