Wedding Photographer Fennes for Lindsay & Dane

Wedding Photographer Fennes

It was a lovely day when we arrived at Fennes for Lindsay and Dane’s Wedding. On arriving at Fennes, we just followed the sound of chatter and laughter which was happening in the Bridal Room. Preparations were going well especially with lots of Bridesmaids and a Flowergirl. Leaving the girls for a few minutes to carry on we went into Fennes Suite where we took pictures of the Lindsay’s Wedding Dress and accessories. Dane was making his final preparations at Fennes with his Ushers and Groomsmen. When Dane was ready, looking very dapper, together with his Best Man, Ushers and Groomsmen, they had a few pictures taken in front of the house. Lindsay wanted to go for a ride with her Father in the Horse and Carriage before the Ceremony, so hats off to all the girls, they were all ready on time for that and we were able to take some pictures beforehand. Returning from their ride, Lindsay then met with the Registrars before re-joining her Father and they walked through Fennes to the Pavilion. After the finish of the Ceremony, Lindsay and Dane went for a ride in the Horse and Carriage whilst their Guests socialised in the Drinks Reception. Whilst waiting for them to return, we took some relaxed pictures of the Guests. Once Lindsay and Dane returned and they had time to mingle with their Guests we got on with the requested family pictures. Having a little time before the Wedding Breakfast we managed to squeeze in some fun pictures of the Bridal Party, together pictures of Lindsay and Dane, finishing with confetti pictures. The Speeches followed the Wedding Breakfast which we covered and later during the evening Reception we took a couple of pictures of Lindsay and Dane around Fennes. Later, their Guests enjoyed Lindsay and Dane’s rehearsed First Dance and we left them to continue to the party afterwards. Thank you to Sharyn and everyone at Fennes for looking after us.

Fennes Wedding Photography for Natalie & Craig

Fennes Wedding Photography for Natalie & Craig

The wonderful Fennes was the choice of Wedding Venue for Natalie and Craig’s Wedding. An outside Ceremony was what Natalie and Craig were wishing for, so it was fingers crossed the weather would hold. Natalie was getting ready upstairs with the help of her Bridesmaids, so first of all we went to see them. Craig was getting ready in the Bridal Cottage with his son Max, and when they were in the final stages of getting ready we were there to take the pictures. Prior to Natalie and Craig’s Wedding Day, Natalie had dislocated her Collar bone so she was trying not to use her arm very much! Once the men were ready they had a few pictures taken outside Fennes before they went about their duties.

Natalie and the girls were now ready and after her Stepdad saw her for the first look we took a few pictures of them all before it was time for Natalie to see the Registrars. So far the weather was staying fine, maybe a little cooler that recently but nothing to stop the outdoor Ceremony. The Guests were seated and with everyone in place it was time for Natalie to walk the short distance to the Gazebo. Natalie and Craig’s dog led the way, carrying the rings! The rain stayed away, just! After the Ceremony the Guests enjoyed the Drinks Reception with some going inside and others staying outside eating ice cream! Later we got on with taking the requested family group pictures followed by a few pictures of Natalie and Craig around the grounds. Natalie wanted to be held up for a picture, the men and Max did this very carefully! The Wedding Breakfast was held in the Pavilion, followed by the Speeches. After the Speeches there was a little time before the start of the evening celebrations for a few relaxed pictures of Natalie and Craig in the Gold Room and Red Room at the front of the House. The cutting of the cake followed and then Natalie and Craig took to the dance floor for their First Dance. Our day ended with an evening pictures of Natalie and Craig on the Bridge. A lovely day! Thank you to Sue and all at Fennes for looking after us.

Fennes Wedding Photography for Stacey & Michael

Fennes Wedding Photography for Stacey & Michael

Fennes is a beautiful setting for a Wedding and it looked wonderful as we arrived for Stacey and Michael’s Wedding in May. Stacey was getting ready upstairs in the House and Michael was getting ready in the Lodges. Stacey and Michael’s sons, Noah and Harry were with their Daddy, with the plan that they joined Stacey once she was dressed. Preparations were going well and they were all very relaxed.

Michael, his Best Man, Ushers and the boys had a few photos taken when they were ready. Noah and Harry then went upstairs to the Bridal Room to see their Mummy, who looked amazing! After taking some pictures of them all, it was time to go downstairs where Stacey met with the Registrars. The Registrars made their way outside for the Ceremony and Stacey took her father’s arm and went into the Gold Room ready to walk outside. Noah and Harry happily led the way and during the Ceremony they handed over the rings. Following the Ceremony, everyone enjoyed the Drinks Reception, the children were blowing bubbles, whilst adults mingled. In between we took some requested family pictures and later on managed to find time for some pictures of Stacey and Michael. It was soon time for the Wedding Breakfast which was held in the Pavilion. After the Speeches, there were garden games in the grounds which kept everybody entertained. Making the most of the evening sunshine Guests enjoyed strolling around the grounds which gave us the opportunity of taking some evening pictures of Stacey and Michael. When the Evening Guests arrived Stacey and Michael cut their Wedding Cake, which was followed by their First Dance. Stacey and Michael provided their Guests props for ‘fun pictures’ which we captured. A nice day provided a lovely sunset picture. We took our leave a little while later. A wonderful day!

Gosfield Nature Reserve Engagement Shoot

Gosfield Nature Reserve Engagement Shoot

Gosfield Nature Reserve Engagement Shoot for Jo and Kieran was one of our recent evening jobs. The day had been one of those days where the weather had been unpredictable, but in the end we all made the call and met there. We were pleased we did! The sun was out, we avoided as much as we could a few muddy puddles. This was fun anyway, with Kieran giving Jo piggy-backs where necessary, captured of course! After taking a few pictures we all went to the local pub for a chat about their Wedding details and times. Jo and Kieran are getting married at St Mary’s Church, Bocking with their Wedding Reception at The Fennes Estate soon.

Christmas Wedding Photography Fennes for Beth & Lee

Christmas Wedding Photography Fennes for Beth & Lee

A Christmas Wedding at Fennes! Beth and Lee chose the popular Wedding Venue The Fennes Estate for their Wedding. Arriving at Fennes, meeting with the girls was our first job. David then went off to find the guys who were in the cottages making their final preparations. Beth and the girls were having a great time upstairs in the changing rooms, having their hair and make-up done. Once Lee and the men were ready, looking splendid in their RAF uniforms, they made their way over to the house. After taking a few portraits of Lee and a few pictures of them all Lee and his Groomsmen went into the house as the Guests were starting to arrive. By this time the girls were in the final stages of getting ready and once Beth’s Mother was ready, she assisted Beth to get dressed. Beth looked lovely!

Taking a few pictures of Beth, her Bridesmaids and Flowergirls, Beth then went down the stairs to where her Father was. The Bridesmaids led the way into the Pavilion for the Civil Ceremony. After the Ceremony everybody went to the front of Fennes for the Drinks Reception. Beth and Lee socialised with their Guests for a little while before it was time to get on with the pictures. It was not raining so for the requested family pictures we went outside for a short while before doing a few more inside. As these were taking place everyone enjoyed the mulled wine and mincepies. Later on, after Beth had changed her footwear, we took Beth and Lee for a few minutes over to the bridge for their pictures. Guests threw confetti over Beth and Lee when we returned before it was time for the Receiving Line. The Wedding Breakfast was held in the Pavilion with the Speeches following. The best Man’s speech was extremely well planned! There was time afterwards for a few relaxed pictures of Beth and Lee before the cake cutting. Surprising their Guests with the light up letters on the dance floor Beth and Lee took to the floor for their First Dance. After capturing a flavour of the evening celebrations we said our goodbyes. Thanks to Sharon and all the staff at Fennes.

Wedding Photographs Fennes – Hannah & Chris

Wedding Photographs Fennes

Hannah and Chris chose the wonderful Wedding Venue Fennes for their Wedding in November last year. Making our way to The Fennes Estate the fog was beginning to lift and we had our fingers crossed it would continue! Hannah, her Bridesmaids and Parents were getting ready at Fennes and when we arrived all preparations were running smoothly. There was a lovely relaxed feel to the day and when everyone was ready we went into the Gold Room. After a few pictures we left to go to St Mary’s Church, Bocking for the church service. We met with Chris, his Best Man and Ushers and found a little time to take some pictures of them before they resumed their duties. It wasn’t long before Hannah arrived and escorted by her Father and Bridesmaids, she made her way up the path to the church. Perfect time for the sun to come out. After the church service everybody made their way outside for a few requested pictures. We only took a few pictures outside the door as the sun was now proving to be a menace! The Guests then made their way back down the path to the gate and waited for Hannah and Chris to throw confetti over them. We made our way back to Fennes with Hannah and Chris, but ahead of the Guests. With the splendid Autumn colours around we wanted to take Hannah and Chris for a few minutes for their pictures on the bridge and around the grounds. It worked wonderfully well! Hannah and Chris then joined the Wedding Guests for the Drinks Reception. Some fun Bridal Party pictures were taken a little later on in between taking a few informal images of the Guests. As we were outside the mist started to come down and added an extra feel to the day. The Wedding Breakfast took place in the Pavilion and this was followed by the Speeches. Liking the Speeches as we do we were happy to be spoilt for choice with pictures. Later, waiting for the Evening Guests to arrive and the evening celebrations to start, we took a few evening pictures of Hannah and Chris. Coverage of the First Dance was followed by some sparkler shots before it was time for us to leave. Hannah and Chris, you are a lovely couple and were great to work with, a thoroughly enjoyable day!

Wedding Photography Fennes for Gemma & Martin

Wedding Photography Fennes for Gemma & Martin

Gemma and Martin’s Wedding took place at the wonderful Fennes in the Autumn last year. They chose to have all their Wedding at The Fennes Estate. On the morning of the Wedding it was dry outside, allowing us to take a few pictures of Martin and his Groomsmen. Meanwhile, the girls were upstairs carrying out their final preparations. We had time to take a few Bridal portraits as everything was running on time before Gemma went down the stairs to where her Father was waiting for her.

The Civil Ceremony was held in the Pavilion and once the Guests were seated, and Gemma had entered the room, the Registrars conducted the Ceremony. Unfortunately, the dry day didn’t continue, the rain came, so when the Ceremony had finished Gemma and Martin made their way upto the front of the house and made use of the rooms to socialise. Keeping the Gold Room free allowed us, a little later on, to get on with taking the requested family pictures. We were able to use the steps outside Fennes for a couple of photos before it was dry enough to go over to the Bridge. The Bridge is a popular feature of Fennes and we do try to get a couple of pictures of the Bride and Groom on there, come what may! Gemma and Martin were happy for us to take a couple of pictures amongst the leaves. Confetti pictures were taken in the Gold Room later prior to the Wedding Breakfast, as well as a couple of more together pictures.We had run out of time before the Wedding Breakfast to take the ‘everybody’ shot so after covering the Speeches, so the front of house Co-Ordinator, Lottie, requested Guests make their way to the front of the house. In next to no time we had taken this shot and everyone went back into the house to await the evening celebrations. After making sure we had a selection of informal pictures during the evening and after the First Dance it was time to say ‘goodbye’.
