    Wedding Photography Spains Hall for Lucy & Steve

    It was nice to be asked to photograph Lucy and Steve’s Wedding at Spains Hall, Finchingfield. On arrival at Spains Hall, after saying ‘hello’ to Lucy who was getting ready in the Tapestry Room, David went off to find the men.  Steve, his Best Man, Ushers and Parents were in Crest Lodge.  Steve’s final preparations were going well as were Lucy’s.  The Flowergirls, Rebecca and Amelia, Lucy and Steve’s daughter, were enjoying getting ready and giving a helping hand.  When the men were ready, they had a few pictures taken in the garden before walking over to the House for the Ceremony.

The Flowergirls led the way into the Hall followed by Lianne, the Bridesmaid and finally Lucy and her Dad.  After all the formalities were completed, Lucy and Steve exited the room had a few minutes to themselves whilst the Guests were handed confetti and went outside.

It was a glorious day, so hot, but we managed to take some fun bridal party pictures in next to no time and take Lucy and Steve for a few minutes around the grounds for their pictures.Wedding Photography Spains Hall Just before the Wedding Breakfast there was time for the ‘everybody’ shot in front of the Hall before they made their way over to the Stables.  The Speeches followed the meal. While the room was prepared for the evening, the  Guests enjoyed the evening sunshine, relaxing and participating in the garden games. Amelia, Rebecca and the other children had fun running around as well.  During the evening we took some informal pictures of the evening Guests.  As it was now cooler we took Lucy and Steve for a few minutes along the driveway for some evening pictures before re-joining their Guests.  With the turnaround complete everybody made their way back into the room for the evening celebrations to begin, starting with the First Dance, then it was the party! A beautiful day, a beautiful sunset to finish!

  • Wedding Photography The Lawn, Rochford for Vicky and Lee

    Wedding Photography The Lawn – Vicky and Lee chose the The Lawn, Rochford, Essex which was a lovely venue for their summer Wedding. On our arrival we made our way upstairs to the Brides Room where there was much excitement. Whilst the girls were getting ready, Lee, the Best Man and the Ushers had arrived, so it was off downstairs to meet them and take a few pictures of them all.

    With the girls ready we took their photographs before Vicky’s dad entered the room. Some lovely joyous moments were captured, followed by some more as Amelia, the Flowergirl and George the Pageboy saw Vicky.

    Afterwards the happy couple led their Guests outside for the Drinks Reception. The weather was on our side, dry, but overcast, so we were able to get on with the requested group pictures outside.  After making sure Vicky and Lee had some time to relax and enjoy some of the afternoon with their Guests, we took a few fun shots of the Bridal Party. This was followed by taking Vicky and Lee for a short walk in the grounds for their together shots with the sun making an appearance.

Whilst the superb Band www.thelowdownband.com were finishing setting up we took some informal pictures of couples and evening Guests. Soon it was time for Vicky and Lee to cut their Wedding Cake and take to the floor for their First Dance.  A little while later it was time for us to say goodbye after a lovely day. It was nice to see Lee’s Parents, Lanna and Dave together with Lee’s brother, Glenn and his wife Kate, whose Wedding we photographed in at Newland Hall, Chelmsford, in 2009. Great also to see many familiar faces too numerous to list!
