Pre-Wedding Pictures
We decided to meet Nina and Steve at their Wedding Venue, Kings Oak Hotel, High Beach, for their pre-wedding pictures. As this would be our first time in photographing a Wedding here, we were able to have a look around the Venue and being in the heart of Epping Forest find some nice spots around for a few pictures.

Wedding Photography for Lorraine & Steve – Fennes
Lorraine and Steve held their Wedding at The Fennes Estate, Bocking. Bridal preparations were taking place when we arrived, so after capturing these pictures together with some accessory shots. With Steve and the guys having arrived at Fennes we took a few pictures of them outside the house. Back to the girls who were now ready for their portraits. Annabelle, the Flowergirl and Bobby, the Pageboy, led the way into the Pavilion for the Ceremony. During the Ceremony it rained so afterwards Lorraine, Steve and their Guests had the Drinks Reception inside. Everybody mingled in the four rooms at the front of the house whilst we took some informal pictures. After a little while we were able to go outside for a few family group pictures and took a couple of pictures of Lorraine and Steve on the bridge before we were forced to return to the house due to the weather.
Fennes provides many opportunities for photographs inside anyway so we took some photographs in the Gold Room. We were able to get outside again before the Receiving Line and this allowed us to to do some fun bridal party pictures. The Speeches followed the Wedding Breakfast and Steve’s son Guy, the Best Man, delivered his speech packed with emotion. The early evening light made for some nice pictures of Lorraine and Steve together before the arrival of their Evening Guests.
Capturing images of Lorraine and Steve’s First Dance and a sunset pictures ended our coverage of their Wedding. -
Crabbs Barn Wedding Photography – Nicola & Kris
Crabbs Barn Wedding Photography
It was a a lovely day when we arrived at The Rivenhall Hotel, Kelvedon, for the getting ready pictures of Nicola. Nicola, her Mum and the Bridesmaids were busily getting ready but they were all relaxed, organised and enjoying themselves. Getting caught up in the emotions of the day comes with our job which we love, but the moment when Nikki’s Dad and Brother saw her for the first time, will be remembered by us for a long time to come. Moment over, we got on with the pictures!
At Crabbs Barn Kris and the guys had a few pictures taken before Nicola arrived. With the Guests seated, Nicola made her entrance into the Barn for the Civil Ceremony. After the Ceremony, Nikki and Kris led their Guests outside for the Drinks Reception. A little while later we took a few family group pictures and fun bridal party pictures . Just before the Wedding Breakfast Nicola and Kris joined us for a short walk around Crabbs Barn. 
After covering the Speeches and in the gap before the evening celebrations, Nikki and Kris wanted a few more pictures of the two of them in the lane and around. 
Nikki and Kris’ First Dance was extra special as the song they danced to was sung superbly by Kris’s Dad. A wonderful day! -

Pre-Wedding Pictures
A pre-wedding meeting and pictures with a difference! Patrick is a fellow Professional Photographer, who we know very well, and this would be the second time he would be photographed by us! The first time was when he was an Usher at his friend’s Wedding which we photographed three years ago. It was a beautiful afternoon when we met them to discuss the final details of their Wedding Day. Deciding to go to the Church first to have a look around also provided us with the opportunity of taking a few pictures of Patrick and Ania in the field opposite and achieving some lovely images.

Wedding Photography for Alison & Mike – Crabbs Barn, Kelvedon
We first met Alison when she was a stable girl to the horse owned by Sam, whose Wedding we photographed a number of years ago. Such a lovely surprise when Alison contacted us to come and see us and book us to photograph her Wedding! Whilst on our way to the wedding we had an unexpected call from Mike to say that Alison was running late in getting to Crabbs Barn due to Mike having organised a car to pick Alison and her Family up from the family home and take them to Crabbs Barn. Once Alison arrived she went to the bridal suite to put the finishing touches to the hair and make up . Meanwhile, the men were ready so we took a few pictures of them before they greeted the arrival of the first Guests of the day.
With Alison ready shortly afterwards we took a few pictures in the Bridal Suite and a few more outside in the warm sunshine. The Civil Ceremony was held in the Barn and after this Alison and Mike led their Guests outside to enjoy the Drinks Reception. Before the requested Group pictures we captured some nice images of the Guests enjoying the day. With the fun Bridal Party pictures and some Bride and Groom together pictures taken, it was time for the Receiving Line and Wedding Breakfast. Later on,with good evening light, some lovely images were taken of Alison and Mike around Crabbs Barn before the First Dance. 
Catching up finally with Sam, Martin and their Family was brilliant, it has been a few years since we last saw them. After some evening Guest pictures and a sunset picture, it was time for us to leave.

Wedding Photography for Sally & Lee – Parklands, Quendon Hall
It was a beautiful day when we arrived at Parklands, Quendon Hall, for the Wedding of Sally and Lee. The girls were getting ready and whilst I stayed with the girls, David went off to meet with the boys. Having taken a few pictures of Lee, his Best Man and Ushers in the grounds of Parklands, the girls portraits were taken in the preparation rooms. Sally and Lee chose to have an indoor Civil Ceremony and afterwards led their Guests outside for the Drinks Reception where they socialised for a little while before we got on with the requested family pictures and fun bridal party pictures. We left the Guests to enjoy the sunshine whilst Sally and Lee joined us for a short stroll around Parklands. With some nice pictures captured by the Lake and some walking shots it was time to go back.
With some lovely evening light after the Wedding Breakfast, we took Sally and Lee for a few more pictures which they wanted around Parklands, before the Evening Reception and their First Dance together, which were more than happy to do!
The sunset put on a good display for us of coloured sky and Sally and Lee were delighted to be photographed with and that is where our coverage of their Wedding Day ended.
