Maison Talbooth, Dedham – wedding photography for Karen & Ian

Maison Talbooth was the chosen Venue for the Wedding of  Karen and Ian.  We arrived early as there were the final preparations to capture and many assessories to photograph of which Karen had made many herself.  The weather was hot so photographing Ian and his three Best Men happened outside as the guests arrived.  Once Karen and the girls were ready there was just enough time to take a few pictures. wedding-photographer-essex-maison-talboothImmediately before the start of the Wedding Ceremony Ian saw Karen for a moment just before all the Guests.  As there was a heavy shower as the Ceremony finished, Karen and Ian socialised with their Guests for a short time inside before it was dry enough to go outside for a couple of pictures and for the Guests to shower them in confetti.  After moving to Le Talbooth Karen and Ian went for a boat ride up the river.  Their return was greeted by their Guests and some of them then enjoyed a ride up stream as well.  Whilst Karen and Ian enjoyed some more time with their guests  we captured some natural expressions and managed a few words with Katie and Nigel, whose Wedding and family photographs we have taken in recent years. A heavy shower of rain just before the meal caused the group pictures to be delayed until after the Wedding Breakfast. The Speeches were superb, with Kellie’s (the Bridesmaid) having everybody in stitches!  Once the family group pictures were taken, there was time for some fun shots and Bride and Groom portraits before everybody returned to Maison Talbooth.wedding-photographer-essex-le-talbooth
