    Studio Portraits Witham

    Alex and Laura made contact with us during December last year to enquire about our Wedding Photography services and mentioned they may want a studio portrait taken as a Christmas gift. Once they had booked their Wedding date they arranged to come and meet us  for the studio portrait and to discuss their wedding plans.  We are pleased to say they liked their pictures and additionally booked their Wedding with us as well.  Alex and Laura will be getting married at Prested Hall, Feering, next year. We are looking forward to photographing their wedding.

  • Prested Hall Wedding Photographer for Charlotte & Lee

    Prested Hall Wedding Photographer

    Prested Hall, Feering was the Wedding Venue chosen by Charlotte and Lee for their Civil Ceremony and Wedding Reception.  Charlotte and her Bridesmaids were getting ready upstairs in the Bridal Suite so we captured these moments as well as taking the detail and accessory pictures.  Charlotte & Lee’s sons, together with Lee and his Groomsmen  arrived so David went off to meet  them for some pictures.  Once  Charlotte and her Bridesmaids were dressed and ready we took a few pictures. The Ceremony was in the Orangery, so when it was time, with the Harpist playing, Charlotee took her Father’s arm and they walked into the room.

    Prested Hall Wedding After the Ceremony, Charlotte and Lee came out of the Orangery and went into the Lounge area, followed by their Guests.  Drinks were served and after a little time we all went outside. The weather was fine, the sun was out, and the garden games were on the lawn. During this time a few family pictures were taken, some fun bridal party pictures taken outside the front of Prested Hall.  After making sure Charlotte and Lee had socialised, it was time for some pictures of them together. A short walk around Prested Hal  provided us with the opportunity of taking some nice pictures.Prested Hall Wedding Photographer Getting some pictures of the boys was a must so picking the right time was important.  By this stage in the afternoon, Ryan and Oliver and  just wanted to have fun, fine with us!  Images achieved! The Wedding Breakfast was held in the Marquee with the Speeches following. Lee started off his Speech traditionally, then came the surprise! Playing his Guitar, singing a song, which he had written, brilliant! Prested Hall Wedding PhotographerAfter the Best Man’s Speech everybody had time to wander around the grounds or go in the house before the evening entertainment. The best place today for Charlotte and Lee’s sunset picture was a quick drive away and Charlotte and Lee were more than happy to do this! The Cake cutting and First Dance happened a little while later.  Now came the hardest part of the evening, keeping a low profile (disappearing!) as there was to be a ‘surprise’ firework display curtesy of her Dad, which Charlotte, Lee and the Guests did not know about! When everybody was ushered outside later in the evening, we reappeared! Charlotee said she thought we had gone without saying ‘goodbye’! Not us! Our time to go was after the brilliant display. A lovely day to be a Prested Hall Wedding Photographer!Wedding Photographer Prested Hall

    Sue and Mark’s home was where we started our coverage of their Wedding. We took the details and accessory shots together with a few getting ready picture, before they were all dressed.

    Essex Wedding Photographer Not long after we left to go to Prested Hall, Feering. Mark was there with his son, Finley and Best Man, Ian, so before they got busy with greeting the Guests we took a few pictures of them.  Sue arrived early at Prested Hall with her sons, Ben and Jack. Making the most of the time and nice weather,we took a few pictures in and outside the Dingle.  When it was time they walked over to Prested Hall.  After seeing the Registrars, Sue, escorted by her sons made her way into the Orangery and down the aisle for the Ceremony. Once the formalities were completed Sue and Mark walked out of the Orangery and into the Lounge area. After getting a drink, people went outside.  During the afternoon we took a few requested family group pictures, confetti and informal pictures.  Allowing time for Sue and Mark to speak to their Guests and enjoy the Drinks Reception, we still had time to take them off for a short walk around the grounds.

Essex Wedding Photographer Prested Hall Sue and Mark chose to have their Speeches after the main course, which we were on hand to cover. After the finish of the Wedding Breakfast, the Guests had time to wander around the grounds or just relax and catch up with each other over coffee.  The Orangery had been transformed for the the evening’s entertainment.  Sue and Mark’s evening Guests had arrived so after the cake cutting, they had their First Dance together. 1897- 8 Not having a sunset to finish their day, we made sure of a few night pictures for them.  A lovely day and once again it’s great to be a Prested Hall Wedding Photographer!

  • Beach Engagement shoot – Charlotte & Lee

    Beach Engagement shoot

    We met Charlotte and Lee one evening at their home for a chat before going to do some pre-wedding pictures.  Being a warm evening we decided to go along the seafront at Dovercourt. Charlotte and Lee are getting married at Prested Hall, Feering in the near future.

    A Beach Engagement shoot is always fun and our clients are a little more relaxed, which then carries over to the wedding day – just what we want! We also use our small discrete Leica camera which just seems that little bit less scary to those not used to being photographed, than the large Nikons we use for weddings!

  • Prested Hall Wedding Photography for Rebecca & Tom

    Prested Hall Wedding Photography

    Prested Hall Wedding Photography for Rebecca & Tom – Rebecca and Tom chose the popular Wedding Venue Prested Hall, Feering, for their relaxed early spring Wedding.  We met Rebecca upstairs in the Bridal Room at Prested Hall, as she was getting ready with her Mum’ Bridesmaids and Flowergirls. With lots going on we captured a few images as well as taking a few pictures of Rebecca’s details and accessories.

    Essex Wedding Photographer Prested Hall Tom arrived at Prested Hall a little while later, with his Parents and Brother. We took a few pictures of them with the car before they were joined by Tom’s BestMan and Ushers. Prested Hall Wedding PhotographerAfter these were completed they all then went inside to welcome the Wedding Guests. Once Rebecca was ready we took a couple of pictures before it was time for the Ceremony.  Rebecca looked a picture as she made her entrance into the Orangery for the Civil Service.  Prested Hall Recommended Wedding PhotographerAfter the Ceremony, Rebecca and Tom led their Guests into the Lounge area for the Drinks Reception.  Although dry outside, it was rather chilly, so we made use of the sheltered entrance outside Prested Hall for the requested family pictures. Following these pictures we carried on with Rebecca and Tom’s ‘together’ pictures.  We achieved some nice portraits in a short amount of time, making sure Rebecca did not shiver too much! Rebecca and Tom returned to their Guests and to the warmth of Prested Hall! They socialised up until it was time for the Wedding Breakfast.  As we had not visited the Bridge during Rebecca and Tom’s pictures earlier, so during a break in the Wedding Breakfast there was just enough time to take a few pictures of them over there. Speeches were after the meal and then everybody mingled in the rooms at Prested Hall whilst the Band set up for the evening entertainment. Once the Evening Guests had arrived Rebecca and Tom cut their Wedding Cake and took to the dance floor for their First Dance.  After capturing some photos of the evening celebrations, our final picture of the night was a ‘sparklers’ shot.Prested Hall Wedding Photography A lovely Wedding, a delightful couple! A pleasure as always working with David from Rideout.
