  • Pre-Wedding Pictures

    It was a beautifully sunny morning when we met Cherilyn and Anthony for a walk along the River Walk in Witham for their pre-wedding pictures.  After the rain of the previous few days we were fortunate not to need our wellies!  It was great to see Cherilyn and Anthony again as they had booked us as their Wedding Photographers in early 2011.  Cherilyn and Anthony are getting married at Channels Golf Club later this year.wedding-photographer-essex-pre-wedding pictures

  • Wedding Photography – Stephanie & Mario – The Royal Garden Hotel, Kensington

    We were delighted to be asked to photograph the Wedding of Stephanie and Mario particularly as the father of Marios is our friend and fellow Professional Photographer Panikos.  Starting our day with David leaving me at Marios’ house, he left to go to to Steph’s house. From a quiet beginning at Marios’ house, relatives then arrived every few minutes before the greek custom of dressing the Groom.  With live Greek music being played and Marios’ relatives singing,  it made for some emotional images.,  Meanwhile, at Steph’s house, David was busily taking photographs of bridal preparations, details and Steph’s relatives, musicians, who were congregating.   The Wedding Ceremony was held at Battersea Kingdom Hall before everybody then travelled to The Royal Garden Hotel, Kensington for the Reception. As Steph and Mario’s Wedding was held on the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Weekend, a spur of the moment decision was made to stop on Wandsworth Bridge with Steph and Mario and take a couple of photographs as rain was in the air.  Fantastic!  A wonderful opportunity to photograph Steph and Mario on the bridge with the flotilla of boats passing by underneath! wedding-photographer-london-wandsworth bridge Arriving at The Royal Garden Hotel, Kensington it was not long before the rain began to fall, but with the cover of the Hotel we managed to get some photographs of the couple as well.  Formal requested group pictures were taken on the stairs in the Hotel as well in various other parts of the Hotel.wedding-photographer-london- the royal garden hotel-kensington Following a lovely Wedding Breakfast, dancing started and it was a pleasure to watch as well as photograph everybody having a wonderful time. wedding-photographer-london-the royal garden hotel-kensington

  • Wedding Photography – Sinead & Ross – Dedham, Essex

    Everything was running smoothly when we arrived at Sinead’s family home in Dedham, Essex, for the bridal preparations.  We took some informal and formal pictures of the girls inside and outside before leaving to go to the St Mary’s Church, Dedham, for the Church service. Following the service a few pictures were taken in the grounds, then Sinead and Ross left the Church to a shower of confetti!wedding-photographer-essex-st.mary's church-dedham Many of their Guests walked to the Reception which was held at Sinead’s family home and we captured some lovely images whilst we walked as well.  With a wonderfully colourful setting the opportunities were endless for requested family pictures and with the weather on our side we took full advantage.  Sinead and Ross had several opportunities to socialise with their Guests before we took them off for a stroll around different areas for their pictures.  We all had a great time and achieved some lovely pictures before the Wedding Breakfast.  Speeches followed before the evening and First Dance photographs and this ended a wonderful day.  It was nice to work with Mervyn Rutter (Toastmaster) again, and thank you to The Food Station, www.foodstation.uk.com who looked after us and provided excellent food.  wedding-photographer-essex-dedham

  • Wedding Photography for Laura & Nathan at Spains Hall, Finchingfield

    It was a beautiful day when we arrived at Laura’s Mum’s house for the final bridal preparations.  The girls were relaxed, having their final make up touches applied by the excellent Kelly Hollands, and before long it was time for all of them to put their dresses on. We took a few pictures of the girls before leaving to go to the Church.   All Saints Church, Rayne, was  where the service was held and after the service, everyone came out into warm sunshine and socialised whilst a few family pictures were taken, followed by the traditional confetti throwing.wedding-photographer-essex-all saints church rayne Spains Hall, Finchingfield, was the Reception venue, a beautiful setting, especially with today’s weather!  Laura and Nathan’s Guests enjoyed a Drinks Reception with the children enjoying themselves playing with the various garden games. We took Laura and Nathan for a few photographs  in the shade under the trees also allowing them time to themselves. Following a break, some requested group photographs were taken together with a few fun bridal party pictures.  Time just flew by and before long, it was time for the Wedding Breakfast, supplied by Le Talbooth, which was superb.  Coverage of the speeches followed before an interval before the First Dance. A short stroll around the grounds in the soft evening light with Laura and Nathan provided us with wonderful pictures before the First Dance.  Evening Guests arrived and joined in the celebrations and were entertained later on by a surprise Firework Display.  A wonderful day!  Video filming was by Your Perfect Day

  • Wedding Testimonial – Laura & Jonathan's Wedding – Braxted Park

    It is always a pleasure to receive a ‘Thank You’ and we were especially happy to receive this one from Laura’s Parents.

    Dear David and Sandra

    Now that Laura and Jonathan are back from honeymoon we have seen the first draft of the wedding photographs, which has prompted me to write to you – as I had been intending for the past few weeks.

    As you know, we had a wonderful day (except for the weather!) and the photos are a fantastic memory of that.  From a very quick look the other day I am so impressed by what you have done and I’m really looking forward to seeing the finished product.

    I would also like to thank you both for your involvement on the day.  You were so patient,helpful, unobtrusive and professional.

    I really cannot praise you and thank you enough.  One does hear wedding photographers horror stories and you were both so far from that.  Thank you.

    Very best wishes

    Andrew and Lizwedding-photographer-essex-bride-groom-braxted park
