  • Wedding Photography Fennes for Stephanie & Raymond

    Wedding Photography Fennes – We arrived early on the morning of Stephanie and Raymond’s Wedding Day at The Fennes Estate, Bocking, Essex.  Stephanie was getting ready there with her family, Bridesmaids, her Flowergirl and Pageboy, prior to her Church Wedding.  Lots of activity was going on with plenty of images to capture. With the detail pictures taken, it wasn’t long before the girls were ready for a few portraits.  Keeping an eye on the time we were able to take some nice pictures before it was time for us to leave to go to the Church.  The beautiful Thaxted Parish Church was where Stephanie and Raymond were going to be married.  It was a dry day and with the Wedding Guests arriving and walking down the path, and Raymond and his Groomsmen walking down the road and into the Church, we captured some great relaxed shots. With Ray’s posed pictures  taken, it wasn’t long before Stephanie arrived. Thaxted Church is one of our favourite churches being large and light giving us opportunities to capture moments of the service unobtrusively.  At the end of the service Stephanie and Ray exited the Church and greeted their Guests before a few close family photos.  The happy couple were then showered in confetti before leaving for Fennes.  Once at Fennes, wanting to make the most of the nice weather we took Stephanie and Ray onto the Bridge before their Guests arrived. Stephanie and Ray wanted an everybody shot in the shape of a heart, which we have done a few times before but not with so many Guests! The timing of this was important, a surprise fly-past was to follow and a massive ‘thank you’ goes to Nicola of Fennes for her help!  After the fly-past,it was time for the Wedding Breakfast, followed by the Speeches. Everybody then mingled throughout the House as evening Guests arrived.  The evening entertainment was to be held in the Banqueting Hall and when the Band was ready. Stephanie and Ray led their Guests into the room for the dancing to begin. A lovely day!

  • Wedding Photography Fennes – Nicola & Ian

    Wedding Photography Fennes

    Nicola and Ian chose the lovely Fennes for their Civil Wedding Ceremony and Reception.  It was a bright warm day when we arrived at The Fennes Estate.  Nicola was having the final touches of her make-up applied when we popped our heads through the door upstairs to see how things were going. After taking a few pictures of the dress and shoes, and capturing the smiles and moments as they happened, it was time for Nicola to get dressed.  David was busy with  Ian’s pictures and his Groomsmen over by the Bridge and after this rejoined us to complete the portraits of the girls.  After greeting her Dad at the bottom of the stairs, Nicola made her way into the Pavilion for the Civil Ceremony.  Following this, Nicola and Ian led their Guests outside for an everybody picture and some requested group pictures.  Nicola and Ian then enjoyed the Drinks Reception with their Guests in the sunshine. A little while later, it was time to take Nicola and Ian for a walk around Fennes for their pictures.  Spoilt for choice as always at Fennes for photographic opportunities we ended up as usual with a good selection.  Nicola and Ian were showered in confetti before the Wedding Breakfast took place.  Coverage of the Speeches followed before the evening Reception.  Nicola  provided her own props for some evening entertainment for her Guests and whilst Guests were having fun we left them to it and went with Nicola and Ian to do their sunset pictures.  We returned in next to no time for the cake cutting and First Dance.  Dancing followed and we left shortly after the FirstDance.  Dancing followed and we left shortly afterwards.

  • Fennes Estate Wedding Photography for Sianie & Damien

    The sun was shining when we arrived at Fennes for the Wedding of Sianie and Damien.  Sianie was upstairs getting ready with her Mum and sisters, Rochelle and Chenelle, who were the Bridesmaids.  Preparations were going well,  fun and laughter was in abundance and we captured some nice images.  Meanwhile, Damien was getting reading in the Cottage with their son Boyce, so we were able to take a few pictures of them as well.  Once the girls were ready we took a few pictures, before it was time for them to make their way downstairs to go outside for the Civil Ceremony. Fennes provides a beautiful setting for an outdoor Ceremony and makes for some lovely pictures. Sianie and Damien left the ceremony with their son which made some nice pictures of them leading their Guests to the Drinks Reception.wedding-photographer-essex-fennes-bockingAfter a short break for Sianie and Damien, we took them for a few pictures on the Bridge and around the grounds before returning to take the requested family group pictures.wedding-photographer-essex-fennes-bocking A little while later we caught up on some guys, girls, and fun group pictures, before the confetti pictures.  Following the Wedding Breakfast and the Speeches, Sianie and Damien enjoyed the evening sunshine in the gardens with their Guests before a few pictures of them in the House and finishing their pictures with a marvellous sunset.wedding-photographer-essex-fennes-bocking With everybody returning to the Pavilion for the First Dance, the later stages of Sianie and Damien’s wonderful Wedding Day continued.

  • 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. wedding-photographer-essex-fennes 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.wedding-photographer-essex-fennes

  • Here in your Heart

    Here in your Heart

    In trying to keep our pictures fresh, we are always looking for alternative views, sometimes they have been seen before and occasionally we find something unique!

    In preparing for David’s Fellowship panel, the advice was, if possible, not to enter any of the pictures in competitions or use the pictures on our website, as when they get copied by other Photographers they start to lose their impact!

    As far as we are aware this location and framing has not been used by anyone else previously, although that will undoubtedly soon change – this is where you saw it first!
