Wedding Photography for Gemma & Richard – Fennes

Gemma and Richard chose the superb Fennes Estate for their Spring Wedding. With final bridal preparations taking place, Richard and his Groomsmen were arriving. Being a dry and bright day, and once Richard was ready, we took a few pictures of him, his Best Man, Ushers and Parents outside. All was well with the Girls and after taking a few pictures of them it was time for the Civil Ceremony.Whilst Gemma and Richard were in the Wedding Ceremony, there was a short shower, but by the time they had greeted their Guests in the Drinks Reception we were able to go outside for the main pictures. Gemma and Richard had chosen a colourful theme for their day which blended well with the sunshine and daffodils. A wonderful setting, lovely pictures! Making sure Gemma and Richard had breaks in between their pictures to talk to their Guests, gave us the chance to capture the informal pictures. The Wedding Breakfast was held in the Pavilion and was followed by the Speeches. Later Gemma and Richard wanted a couple of pictures outside the Bridal Cottage and in the Gold Room . After the cake cutting it was time for the First Dance and Gemma and Richard surprised their Guests with their rehearsed dance routine, which was great! Our day ended a short time later.

Wedding Photography for Sarah & James – Fennes

It was a beautiful spring day for the Wedding of Sarah and James at The Fennes Estate, Bocking. Sarah and her Bridesmaids were busily getting ready with everything going very smoothly. James was also getting ready at Fennes and when he was ready he greeted the arrival of the first Guests for their Wedding, before some pictures of him , his Best Man and Ushers. Sarah was very soon ready and together with her Bridesmaids had a few pictures taken before the Civil Ceremony. Following the Ceremony, Sarah and James led their Guests through the House and outside for the Drinks Reception. Guests enjoyed the warm sunshine whilst we got on with a few requested family group pictures. Fun and laughter took place during some bridal party pictures before we managed to take Sarah and James for a litte while for their pictures. Sarah and James had a few pictures in the Red room before it was time for confetti pictures and the Wedding Breakfast. Speeches followed before a break before the evening. Being such a lovely day, Sarah and James had a wonderful sunset picture before it was time for the First Dance.
We took some evening Guest pictures, before James and the Wedding Guests were given a surprise with a rehearsed dance by Sarah and the girls! The response by the boys, an unrehearsed dance! Great fun, lovely atmosphere, wonderful captured images of the day!

Wedding Photography for Louise & Jamie – Fennes, Bocking

The Fennes Estate with the addition of a snow covering, made an even more amazing setting for Louise and Jamie’s Wedding! Seeing the line up of wellies, on arrival, we knew it was going to be a great day! Lots of excitable noise could be heard upstairs in Fennes with the girls getting ready. Harry, Louise and Jamie’s son, was with them and had plenty of attention paid to him. After capturing the getting ready pictures and once the girls were ready we took a few photographs before it was time for the Civil Ceremony. Louise looked radiant walking into the Ceremony with her Father, followed by the Bridesmaids. After the Ceremony, Louise, Jamie, family and friends enjoyed the Drinks Reception whilst we captured some informal images. A little while later after a few family photographs in the warm in the Gold Room and following a change of footware for many of us, we ventured outside with the Bridal Party for some fun relaxed pictures walking through the snow. The Bridesmaids and Groomsmen returned inside leaving Louise, Jamie, Harry and us to go to the Bridge.
With beautiful light, a wonderful setting, a happy couple, some lovely pictures! Confetti pictures were in the Gold Room before the Receiving Line. After greeting their Guests, it was time for the Speeches before the Wedding Breakfast. Harry’s Birthday was the following day so after the Wedding Breakfast there was a surprise Birthday cake for him. Before the arrival of their Evening Guests, Louise and Jamie wanted to have a few pictures taken around the inside of Fennes. Not long after Louise and Jamie cut their Wedding Cake and took to the dance floor for their First Dance. Our night finished with a couple of closing pictures of Louise and Jamie in front of Fennes. Great to work with David of Rideout Productions again and thanks to the staff at Fennes for looking after us so well.

Wedding Photography for Vicki & Dan – Fennes

Vicki and Dan chose the popular Fennes Estate for their Wedding and had a fantastic day to remember! Vicki and her Bridesmaids were getting ready upstairs at Fennes, whilst Dan and his Groomsmen were getting ready in one of the Lodges. It was soon time for their Ceremony and Vicki looked lovely as she made her entrance into the Pavilion as did Dan in his Army uniform. Following the Ceremony, although cold outside, everybody went outside for a couple of pictures before going inside for a few requested Groups. Later, we took a few fun bridal party pictures outside, thank you to all of you, it was really cold! Vicki and Dan wanted a couple of pictures on the bridge, which happened in double quick time! After confetti pictures in the Gold Room it was time for the Wedding Breakfast. Guests listened to the Speeches before the meal, unbeknown to them there was an extra Speech later! Vicki’s Speech was a surprise to everybody, especially Dan, and when Vicki (not a good singer!) started to sing, the Soul Singer, Dominic, appeared on the Dance Floor to rapturous applause! Dancing to his songs was followed by cake cutting and the First Dance. A brilliant day and will be remembered by us especially for Vicki jumping with joy throughout the day!

Wedding Photography for Sammy & Jack – The Fennes Estate

Sammy and Jack chose the superb Wedding Venue, The Fennes, for their Wedding. Our first port of call on our arrival at Fennes was to the girls to see how things were coming along. All was running smoothly, time for some detail pictures and capturing the atmosphere of the day. Before long it was time for Jack, his Best Man and Usher to greet the first of their Guests downstairs as well as having a few photographs. It was a dry bright day so stepping outside for the guys pictures was a must. Once Sammy was ready, and after seeing the Registrars, it was time for her to make her entrance into the Pavilion for the Ceremony. After the Ceremony, Sammy and Jack led the way to the Drinks Reception at the front of the House and outside to take the ‘everybody’ picture. The Guests remained outside enjoying the Drinks and sunshine so we took the opportunity to take their family photographs. Sammy and the Bridesmaids wanted some pictures on the bridge we then took Sammy and Jack for their pictures around Fennes. After confetti pictures in the Gold Room, it was time for the Wedding Breakfast and Speeches, before a few pictures of Sammy and Jack followed by the evening reception. After taking some informal pictures of their Evening Guests and the First Dance, Sammy and Jack wanted a night picture with Fennes Bridal cottage which we took before saying goodnight and watching them re-join their Guests for the rest of the evening. Thanks to the staff at Fennes for looking after us so well.

Pre-Wedding Pictures

After meeting Sammy and Jack at their home and confirming last minute details of their forthcoming Wedding at The Fennes, Bocking, we went to Priory Park, Southend for some pictures. The weather wasn’t brilliant but that didn’t deter us!

Testimonial

Sarah has kindly placed this testimonial on LinkedIn:-

“My husband and I hired David to photograph our wedding in April 2012 and we were absolutely thrilled with the results. David and his wife were professional throughout the day, making our guests laugh and were encouraging rather than pushy when it came to getting everyone involved in our photos.

David produced a beautiful storybook for us of our special day and everyone that has seen it has commented on how exquisite the photos were and how creative David was in so many of the photos.

I cannot say enough good things about David, I would recommend him to anyone who wants beautiful photos at affordable prices.”

Sarah & Colin were married in April 2012 at St Mary’s Church, Bocking with a Reception at The Fennes
