Wow! What an amazing day! Not one but two Wedding Ceremonies on the day for Reena and Steve! David and I arrived in plenty of time at Fennes, familiarising ourselves with the order of the day. David went to find Steve and his Groomsmen, whilst I joined Reena and the Bridesmaids. With lots going on in both camps, there was plenty to photograph. The first Ceremony was a Civil Ceremony and as it was a warm, dry and bright Summer’s day the Ceremony was held outside in the Gazebo, a perfect setting! With the many Guests seated and with Steve awaiting his Bride, Reena made her way to the Gazebo.
Following the Ceremony, Guests mingled in the lovely grounds of Fennes, whilst enjoying the Drinks Reception. A few pictures on the Bridge for Reena and Steve followed together with a few family group photographs. Reena and Steve had time to enjoy talking to their Guests before a few fun bridal party pictures were taken. It was not long before Reena and Steve left their Guests to change into traditional dress for the Hindu Ceremony. With such an array of colour and lots going on, outside as well as inside at Fennes, and as this was our first Hindu Ceremony, our feet didn’t touch the ground! The Mandap looked absolutely fabulous and after Steve had been welcomed by Reena’s Mum and they had taken their places, Reena entered the Mandap.
After the Ceremony everybody went outside for some more pictures that the couple requested.
Before the Meal, Reena changed again into an beautiful evening Sari, providing us with even more variety of pictures. Following the Starters, Speeches were made before the main meal. After the cake cutting, and Reena and Steve’s First Dance we finished our day. A massive thank you to Reena and Steve for including and educating us so much on their special day. It was good to work with David of Rideout Productions yet again and thanks to the staff at Fennes as always.

Wedding Photography for Judith and Cameron – St. Mary's Church, Bocking and Fennes, Bocking
We started our coverage of Judith and Cameron’s Wedding at The Fennes Estate,Bocking. Preparations were going well and after a few pictures of Judith, her Parents and Bridesmaids in the lovely rooms of Fennes, we left to go St. Mary’s Church, Bocking for the Church service.
Cameron and his Groomsmen were greeting Guests as we arrived and after capturing a few photographs of the men we awaited the arrival of Judith. With a blue sky and fluffy white clouds it was a glorious setting as Judith made her way into Church. After the service and a few family photographs outside the Church, Judith and Cameron left to go to Fennes covered in confetti! The couple and their Guests enjoyed a Drinks Reception outside, interrupted at times for various requested photographs. For Judith and Cameron’s pictures a short walk around Fennes provided them with some wonderful relaxed images.
Following the Wedding Breakfast and Speeches, and as Judith and Cameron (as well as us!) wanted to have some more pictures taken we used the beautiful insides of Fennes as our settings. We had planned a few outside but the rain put paid to that! After capturing a wonderful set dance routine, we took some pictures of the evening Guests, taking our time, as we knew there was going to be a surprise later for everybody. A superb surprise firework display ended a wonderful day for us whilst everyone else returned inside to carry on the celebrations. 
Congratulations to Cameron on his Distinction and his Appointment as a Doctor. -
Wedding Photography for Clare & Denny at Fennes, Bocking, Essex
Clare and Denny choice of Wedding Venue for their Wedding was the lovely Fennes Estate. It was a beautiful spring day when we arrived at Fennes which allowed us to take a few pictures of Denny and his Best Man and Son in the grounds of Fennes. Claire was getting ready upstairs in the House, where we were able to take some lovely photographs of her. Clare and Denny’ s Civil Ceremony took place in The Gold Room, followed by a Drinks Reception. After spending some time with their Guests we took some family photographs that Clare and Denny requested . Following another break we took Clare and Denny for their Bride and Groom portraits making great use of some the many photographic opportunities that Fennes has to offer. Luke and Amelia, Clare and Denny’s children, were having a wonderful time together with the other children present and it was great to capture their enjoyment!
