Wedding Photography Fennes – Rachael & Carl

Wedding Photography Fennes for Rachael and Carl was in July last year. A lovely day it was too.

Rachael and Carl wanted a small relaxed Wedding Ceremony and chose the lovely Fennes Estate for this. Rachael got ready upstairs at Fennes whilst Carl was in the cottage getting ready. Rachael and Carl were very relaxed and all was well.

As Rachael was coming down the stairs prior to the Ceremony, her Dad was waiting for her. A lovely moment.

Rachael and Carl opted to have their Wedding Ceremony in the Gold Room which was intimate.

After the Ceremony it was time for the Drinks Reception. A few family group pictures were taken during the course of the afternoon. A few pictures of Rachael and Carl around Fennes took place as well.

Rachael and Carl enjoyed the rest of the afternoon chatting to their Guests. After confetti in the Gold Room it was the Wedding Breakfast followed by the Speeches. Some good reactions.

Before the evening celebrations started we took Rachael and Carl for a couple of pictures around Fennes. They then cut their Wedding cake and had their First Dance. Chuffed to get a lovely closing evening pictures just after.

Thank you Rachael and Carl for choosing us to be your Wedding Photographers for your big day. It was a lovely day.

Hedingham Castle Wedding Photography For Laura & Jonathan

It was a glorious day for Laura and Jon’s Hedingham Castle Wedding photography. We couldn’t believe how hot the day was going to be though!

An early start for us for Laura and Jon’s Wedding Day. Our day began at Laura and Jon’s home where the girls were getting ready. Preparations were going well and plans were going well. The girls were ready in next to no time allowing for travelling to Hedingham Castle for the midday Wedding Ceremony. After taking a few pictures we were on our way.

Hedingham Castle looked splendid! A beautiful setting for a summer Wedding.

Taking Guest arrival pictures on the way upto the Castle and making their way into the Castle is nice to capture, which is what we did. Jon, his Best Man and Ushers had a few pictures taken before they entered the Castle. It wasn’t long before Laura and the Bridesmaids arrived.

When it was time the girls made their way along the path to the castle. A lovely Wedding Ceremony followed. Wonderful opportunities for some lovely pictures.

Laura and Jon exited the castle and made their way down the steps to grounds. the sun was everywhere, unfortunately not a lot of shade anywhere. Withe everyone’s help, many thanks, we got on with the requested pictures and this didn’t take very long at all. It was just as well as the sun was at it’s strongest then. Once finished we all made our way to the bridge for the confetti.

Time to end the Hedingham Castle wedding photography section and off to the Reception at the Rivenhall Oaks Golf Club, Witham.

Laura and Jon spent a nice time socialising with their Guests their whilst we took some informal pictures of everyone. It was lovely to catch up with Jacqueline and her family, we have known them for many years and have photographed the children several times. We couldn’t believe the children were adults now! A ride in the golf buggy beckoned for Laura and Jon and we joined them of course to take a couple of pictures.

Speeches were before the Wedding Breakfast. Following the meal Guests enjoyed sitting inside or going outside and sitting at the tables and enjoyed the evening sunshine. Later the evening celebrations started. Laura and Jon’s cutting of their amazing Wedding cake was followed by their First Dance.

During the evening we took Laura and Jon for a short stroll in the evening sunlight. This was the end of our Wedding coverage for Laura and Jon. What a lovely Wedding Day!

Dona and Gavin’s Wedding Ceremony was held in the Pavilion. Lovely moments happened.

Following this everyone went outside. Enjoying the sunshine the Guests socialised and spent a lovely relaxed afternoon. Dona and Gavin wanted a few family group pictures taken which we took with other pictures during the afternoon.

A few together shots of Dona and Gavin on the Bridge and around the grounds took place before the Wedding Breakfast.

After the meal, it was time for the Speeches, nice words from the children. Afterwards time to walk around Fennes in the evening sunshine.

Dona and Gavin’s evening Guests arrived for the evening celebrations. Later Dona and Gavin cut their Wedding cake before their First Dance.

Rhian & Ryan – Seckford Hall Wedding Photography

A lovely day for Rhian and Ryan’s Seckford Hall wedding. Arriving at Seckford Hall, we went off to find Rhian. It didn’t take us long as we just followed the sound of people talking and laughing. The Bridesmaids and Flowergirls were getting ready in a couple of the rooms whilst most of the Bridesmaids were in with Rhian. Final stages of preparations were happening and these were running smoothly. From where we were, we were able to see when Ryan arrived and were able to go and see him and take some pictures of him.

The girls were soon ready and then assisted Rhian with her Wedding Dress and accessories.We made use of the area outside the rooms for the pictures of them all when they were ready.

When the Guests arrived they made their way inside the Hall to where the Ceremony would be taking place. After Rhian saw the Registrars it was time for the Ceremony to begin. Rhian and Ryan exchanged their vows and completed the rest of the formalities.

After the Cermony the Guests made two lines outside the room and as Rhian and Ryan exited they three confetti over them. Rhian and Ryan enjoyed socialisng with their Guests for a little while before we got on with the pictures. We had time for a couple of pictures of Rhian and Ryan together.

Unbeknown to Rhian and Ryan there was a surprise in store for them! Alpacas! Rhian loves alpacas! Ryan’s Mum had arranged for two Alpacas to join them all later in the afternoon. The look on Rhian and Ryan’s faces was of shock when they arrived! Great pictures and lots of them of this event!

Later the Wedding Breakfast took place followed by the Speeches. Evening Guests were starting to arrive but there was time to take a few pictures by the lake of Rhian and Ryan.

The evening celebrations were set up and soon it was time for Rhian and Ryan’s First Dance together, then party time!

A couple of other things left to do before we departed was to take a couple of pictures of them all with Sparklers and a Sunset. A nice way to end our coverage of Rhian and Ryan’s Wedding Day.

Do please talk to us about your Seckford Hall wedding, even if its a smaller event!

Colchester Castle Wedding Photography – Rebecca & Lee

It was a Colchester Castle Wedding for Rebecca and Lee in June last year.

Rebecca and Lee wanted a few pictures as arrived at the Castle for the Ceremony, pictures in the Ceremony, followed by some family pictures outside. We were very happy to provide them with this coverage.

Rebecca and Lee had wonderful weather for their Wedding Day. Arriving at the Castle, we took a few pictures before going inside. Their Guests made their way upto the roof top pavilion. Once they were seated, Lee followed after seeing the Registrars. Rebecca was next, being careful as she went, especially in a stunning Wedding dress. It was quite narrow. The room was bathed in sunshine, it was very hot! We took a few pictures during the Ceremony and afterwards.

Then the Guests went down and out of the Castle to get ready for the confetti. On the way from the top of the castle to ground level we took a few pictures on the very atmospheric stairways.

Rebecca and Lee left the castle after being covered in confetti and greeted their Guests. and walked to the side of the castle for some pictures.

At the time we wanted to use the setting of the pond and gardens,we were fortunate there were not many people about there. Once the family photos were taken we took a few pictures of Rebecca and Lee.

Fulfilling all the required pictures for the day we said goodbye to Rebecca and Lee. A wonderful intimate Wedding!

Langtons Hall Wedding Photography for Sarah-Jayne & Thomas

Langtons Hall Wedding Photography at a popular Venue for Sarah-Jane and Thomas. What a nice place it is too! An early Summer Wedding on a warm day.

The guys were first to arrive at Langtons so the first to be photographed.Not a lot of space to work in but fine for a couple of pictures.

Guests were arriving and mingled in the Courtyard. Once it was time, everyone went inside to the Ceremony room.

Sarah-Jayne arrived with her Mum and after a couple of pictures joined her Bridesmaids inside but outside the Ceremony room. A little while later the doors open and they went inside the Hall.

Once the Ceremony was over, Sarah-Jayne and Thomas walked down the aisle and through the doors to the gardens.

They greeted their Guests and socialised for a little time. We got on with organising the requested family pictures. Onces these were taken all the Guests went to the front of the building so we could get some bubbles and confetti pictures.

After this happened the Guests left to make their way to the Reception.

Sarah-Jayne and Tom returned to the gardens and bridge for their pictures which worked very well. We had a nice time talking and laughing with them whilst creating some nice pictures around the grounds.

Sarah-Jayne and Tom left the venue in the car with the arrangement to meet them at their home!

As we didn’t cover any wedding preparations of Sarah-Jayne we took a few pictures of their dogs and Sarah-Jayne and Tom after their Wedding. Happy to do so and happy with the pictures. Do contact us!

Wedding Photography for Julie & Mike at Felixstowe Town Hall

We were pleased to be asked by Julie and Mike to take a few pictures of their low key Wedding at Felixstowe Town Hall. Julie and Mike just wanted a selection of pictures to record their Ceremony and the time afterwards spent with their families and a few friends.

Mike was greeting a few of the Guests at the venue when we arrived, so after taking a couple of pictures of him, it wasn’t long before Julie arrived with her son . After a couple of pictures of them, they made their way upto the Ceremony Room.

After Julie and Mike had made their vows, exchanged rings they exited the room to a side room for a reception.

After a short while we took Julie, Mike and their Guests outside for a group picture and a few requested pictures they wanted.

On a less cold and windy afternoon we would all have stayed outside for a little longer. Julie and Mike after having a little warm up inside then came back outside for a few pictures of them a little later.

Capturing some informal pictures of the Guests and the Speeches during the afternoon followed, until it was time for confetti on the steps and leaving.

A lovely small Wedding Julie and Mike. Congratulations!

Parklands Wedding Photography for Laura & Glen

Parklands Wedding Venue was the setting for Laura and Glen’s Spring Wedding. It was a dry day, slightly cool with the outlook becoming better as the day went on.

Going off to find Laura was the first thing we did when we arrived at Parklands. Preparations were well underway . Once Glen was ready, a couple of pictures of him were taken, not forgetting some with his ‘best woman’, his sister, Cassie and Usher, Josh. Getting ready pictures had been taken of the girls , the next step ‘ready’ pictures. Moving to the red room for Laura’s pictures gave us more room for this to happen.

The Ceremony took place in The Tabor Room which overlooks the gardens and deer park. After the Ceremony everyone went outside. We didn’t spend too long taking the pictures in the gardens, it was a bit cool. After taking the required pictures we spent our time capturing moments of the Guests socialising. A quick five minute session for pictures of Laura and Glen before the time of the Wedding Breakfast worked well.

After the meal and capturing pictures of the Speeches, Ruben, Laura and Glen’s son were having fun so we were took some nice pictures of the three of them.

We then had a lovely time with Laura and Glen around Parklands. The sun was out and Laura and Glen wanted to make good use of Parklands for their pictures, inside and outside. Fine by us!

Later after the cake cutting Laura and Glen had their First Dance and were then joined by their Guests on the dance floor.

To finish our day off the sunset was superb and not to be missed! Thank you Laura and Glen for a lovely day.
