Parklands Wedding Photographer for Kerry and Richard
It was a beautiful day for Kerry and Richard’s Wedding at Quendon Hall. Our day started with Kerry’s bridal preparations in the Changing Rooms, where she was assisted by her Bridesmaid, Rachael. David went to find Richard who was downstairs to take a few pictures of him before the Ceremony. Kerry moved to the Red Room for a few pictures, whilst the Guests were arriving and being shown to their seats. A short time later Kerry took her Father’s arm and entered the Banqueting Hall for the Ceremony. Afterwards Kerry and Richard led their Guests outside, not quite believing the wonderful late autumnal weather! Their Guests enjoyed the Drinks Reception and during the afternoon joined Kerry and Richard for a few family and friends pictures around the fountain. Kerry and Richard wanted some pictures around the grounds of Parklands as well as in the rooms in the house. Leaving the Wedding Guests for a short while, off we went.
Returning, the Guests showered Kerry and Richard with confetti before the Wedding Breakfast. This is where we ceased being Parklands wedding photographers for Kerry and Richard’s special day. A lovely small, relaxed Wedding. -

Tracey’s son was giving her away so after taking his arm they made their way into the Pavilion. Following the Ceremony, Tracy and Robert led their Guests outside for the Drinks Reception. There were a few requested pictures, including some fun pictures. Some nice informal pictures of the Guests were taken whilst everybody socialised in the sunshine.

Wedding Photography Braxted Park for Sarah-Jayne & Michael
Wedding Photography Braxted Park – Braxted Park was the superb Essex Wedding Venue Sarah Jayne and Michael chose for their Wedding. It was a dry autumnal day when we arrived at Braxted Park on the morning of the Wedding. Sarah-Jayne and her Bridesmaids were getting ready in the Bride’s Changing Room with all things going smoothly. Michael was outside having a few pictures taken with his Best Man and Ushers before the Wedding Guests started to arrive.
With final preparations complete the girls were having some photos taken before it was time for the Ceremony. With the Guests seated in the Orangery, Sarah-Jayne took her Father’s arm and they walked the short distance to the front of the room for the Ceremony to begin. Following the Ceremony, Sarah-Jayne and Michael had a couple of minutes to themselves whilst their Guests were being shown the way to the Walled Garden. We then took Sarah-Jayne and Michael through the House for a few pictures before they joined their Guests on the steps. After the picture of everyone the Guests lined the path to the Walled Garden for the confetti throwing before the Drinks Reception. The weather was still holding so everybody mingled outside while we completed the few requested family pictures. We made the most of the hard standing areas, and took these pictures plus a few fun ones as the grass was a little damp. Taking a little time to take Sarah-Jayne and Michael away for a few together pictures by the Lake and Driveway proved to be the right thing to do just before the rain arrived!
We captured some nice images before we returned a little while later in time for the Wedding Breakfast. The pavilion looked lovely and once Sarah-Jayne and Michael were seated the meal was served. Coverage of the Speeches followed and a while later the Evening Guests arrived. Sarah-Jayne tossed her bouquet just before the happy couple took to the dance floor for their First Dance. Braxted Park at night looks beautiful and before we left we took a few pictures of Sarah-Jayne and Michael by the fountain.

Wedding Photographs Fennes for Kristen & Andrew
Wedding Photographs Fennes – The popular friendly Wedding Venue, The Fennes near Braintree, Essex, was Kristen and Andrew’s choice for their Wedding Day. Arriving at Fennes, Kristen was busily getting ready upstairs with the Bridesmaids and Flowergirls. Preparations were going well, so with keeping an eye on developments together with taking some detail pictures, it was busy! David sought out the men who were almost ready and when they were, there was time for some pictures to be taken. For a change David took Andrew, with his Best Man, Andy, out the back of Fennes for their pictures, even though it was raining.
Pleased with the results they returned to the house. Meanwhile, Kristen was in the final stages of getting dressed and soon ready for some pictures. 
Equally some lovely pictures captured of Kristen and the girls. In no time at all it was time for the Wedding Ceremony. With the Guests seated the Flowergirls led the way into the Pavilion followed by the Bridesmaids and Kristin escorted by her Father. Following the Ceremony, Kristen and Andrew led their Guests to the front of Fennes for the Drinks Reception.
Unable to go outside at that particular time due to the continuing rain, the Wedding Guests made themselves comfortable in the rooms in Fennes, leaving us the Gold Room to take some pictures of the happy couple. A short while after the rain stopped, we all went outside for a few pictures, making good use of the steps. Later after socialising with their Guests, Kristen changed her footwear so we could venture further outside for their pictures. Kristen and Andrew wanted to make the most of the superb grounds for their wedding photography, so off we went, for a short tour! An enjoyable time, resulting in some lovely pictures for them.
Once they were back indoors the Guests threw confetti over Kristen and Andrew before the guests made their way to the Pavilion for the Wedding Breakfast. This allowed a few minutes for some pictures of Kristin and Andrew in the Red Room, before they also made their entrance into the Pavilion. Speeches followed the meal and then the Pavilion was prepared for the evening celebrations. After their evening Guests arrived in time for cutting the Wedding Cake shortly prior to the First Dance. Some lovely moments captured! Our coverage of Kristin and Andrew”s Wedding Day finished with their ‘sparklers’. A great day!

Vaulty Manor Wedding Photographer for Katie & Howard
Vaulty Manor Wedding Photographer – Arriving at Katie’s Parents’ house, preparations were going well. Timings were spot on, giving us time to photograph everything we needed to. Predicted weather for the weather later on was not brilliant so we took the opportunity of going outside for the pictures of Katie, Bridesmaids and Parents. This worked well as one of the Flowergirls and the Pageboy were unwell and disappointed that they could not come to the Wedding, but were well enough to have a couple of pictures of taken in the garden with Katie. We then left to go to Vaulty Manor, Hebridge. With the weather still holding we managed to take pictures of Howard and his Groomsmen outside before they were needed. As Katie approached the driveway into Vaulty Manor, the heavens opened! After seeing the Registrars and inside Vaulty Manor, Katie took her Father’s arm and walked into the Ceremony Room.
After the Ceremony everybody enjoyed the Drinks Reception whilst we arranged space in the Room for the requested family group pictures. During the Reception we took some informal pictures before going outside for a couple of pictures of Katie and Howard. Bearing in mind it was pouring, Katie and Howard wanted to go outside. With minimum fuss and organisation we captured some nice pictures. 
The Wedding Breakfast took place in the Barn and towards the end the rain stopped and the sun came out. A short while later Katie, Howard and ourselves made the most of a nice evening, achieving some wonderful results. 
We even managed to do the confetti shots and the ‘everybody’ picture outside as well. 
With the Barn ready for the evening celebrations, Katie and Howard took to the floor for their First Dance, then joined by their Guests for the dancing. After capturing a few of their Evening Guests enjoying the celebrations, and catching up with talking to familiar faces, especially Melissa, Howard’s sister and her husband Dave, whose Wedding we photographed at Marks Hall, Coggeshall, a couple of years ago. A wonderfully rewarding day and a lovely couple! -
Wedding Photography Layer Marney Tower
Wedding Photography Layer Marney Tower – It was a beautiful day for Melissa and Graham’s Wedding. Our day started at Melissa’s Parents’ home where Melissa and the girls were making their final preparations. When Melissa was ready we took a few pictures inside and outside, before leaving for the Church. At St Mary’s Church, Fairstead Guests were starting to arrive but we managed to fit in a few pictures of Graham and his Groomsmen. As the Guests made their way into the Church we captured some nice natural candid images. Melissa arrived at the Church in the Layer Marney Rolls Royce for the Church service.
After the service the Wedding Guests followed Melissa and Graham outside for some traditional family pictures. Once finished, the Guests lined the pathway and threw confetti over Melissa and Graham as they walked to the car to go to the Reception at Layer Marney. On arrival at Layer Marney, Melissa and Graham were dropped in the Courtyard as they wanted to view The Long Galley and have a couple of pictures taken before their Guests arrived. Layer Marney’s Chaffeur, Graham, then took them for a short ride before arriving at the gate at the bottom of Tower. As the Guests arrived they enjoyed the Drinks Reception and congregated on the top step by the Tower. Friends of Melissa and Graham had arranged to bring Melissa’s horse to the Reception, which was a surprise to the Guests. 
With some nice images captured and Melissa’s horse back in the horse box, Melissa and Graham joined their Guests. In between socialising with their Guests, we took Melissa and Graham for a few pictures of them together before the start of the Wedding Breakfast and Speeches. In the interval before the start of the evening celebrations, everybody was entertained by the fabulous singer Joe Frydd. After such a very warm sunny day we thought a sunset was likely. Melissa and Graham are dancers which really made a special ‘Wow’ picture for them! This of course extended to their fantastic First Dance which was very well choreographed.
Afterwards they cut their Wedding cake and just before we left a nightime picture ended our coverage of a wonderful day. -
Wedding Photography Vaulty Manor for Gemma & Ben
Wedding Photography Vaulty Manor – It was a beautiful day for Gemma and Ben’s Wedding at Vaulty Manor, Heybridge, Maldon. When we arrived the Gemma and the girls were getting ready in the Bridal Cottage. Everything was well organised and going to plan, which enabled us to capture the special moments. During this time the Ben and his Groomsmen had arrived so they had a few pictures taken in the grounds before they carried out their various duties. Once Gemma was ready, she looked amazing, we took a few pictures of her and the girls just before they made the short walk to the Barn. With the Guests seated, it was time for the Civil Ceremony.
After the Ceremony, Gemma and Ben led their Guests outside for the Drinks Reception. Gemma and Ben’s children, Braiden and Maisey-Rose, enjoyed the open space to go and play with the other children at the wedding. We took some informal pictures during the drinks followed by a few requested family groups and some brilliant fun Bridal Party pictures.
With fantastic weather and a nice setting, together with a lovely Bride and Groom, we knew Gemma and Ben’s together pictures were going to look great during the short walk around Vaulty Manor. 
With time evaporating fast the everybody picture and confetti pictures happened just before the speeches and Wedding Breakfast. The lovely weather continued through to the evening which helped generate a few lovely evening pictures for Gemma and Ben.
When the Barn was set up for the evening entertainment, everybody made their way through accompanied by the Evening Guests. After Gemma and Ben had cut their Wedding Cake, they took to the dancefloor for their First Dance. With the dancing underway, we took a few pictures of the guests enjoying the evening around the venue before saying our goodbyes.
