Our day started at Sarah and Mark’s house where Sarah, her Mum, and Sarah & Mark’s daughter, Kiera were getting ready. The day was running smoothly and it was not long before Sarah was ready for some photographs, to be joined shortly by her Mum and Kiera. After taking a few pictures of all of them we left to go to St. Peter & St. Paul Church, Black Notley. Mark was there with their son, Fraser, so we took some portraits of them before Sarah arrived. Following the church service and a few family group shots and confetti in the grounds, Fennes was our next stop. 
Fennes looked beautiful as always and the Autumn colours added to the setting. Whilst the Guests were arriving, we took Sarah and Mark for a short walk around Fennes for some of their pictures. 
Later, when all Guests had arrived we took the remainder of their requested pictures as well as some informal ones. The Receiving Line preceded the Wedding Breakfast and Speeches. Before Sarah and Mark’s evening Guests arrived Sarah and Mark asked for a few pictures taken in the rooms in Fennes which we were delighted to do. Sarah tossed her Bouquet to her friends, prior to the cake cutting and First Dance. Shortly afterwards it was time for us to leave everybody to enjoy the rest of the evening.

Wedding Photography for Kavita & Sam – The Fennes Estate, Bocking
We arrived at Fennes for the Wedding of Kavita and Sam with plenty of time to capture pictures of Kavita getting ready, then moving to The Fennes Suite for some pictures of Kavita, her Family and Bridesmaids. In between times we found Sam, his Best Man and Ushers, who were greeting Guests and took a few pictures of them before they went to the Pavilion for the Civil Ceremony. After the Ceremony, with the weather not playing ball, everybody stayed in the House for the Drinks Reception. During this time we took some family group photographs in the Gold Room, mixed with a few Bridal Party pictures and a few pictures of Kavita and Sam.
David and I are always up for going outside whatever the weather if the Bride and Groom want to as well, and as Kavita had her “Weddington Boots” , we took the opportunity. With the help of a few of the Bridal Party and umbrellas, off we went to the Bridge. 
A short stop for a couple of pictures in the Gazebo, then back in the dry! Thank you to all! Wedding Breakfast and Speeches followed before Kavita and Sam left their Guests for a change of dress for their Evening Reception. Once changed, we took some photographs of the two of them before they made their entrance for the start of the Evening celebrations.
After a few dancing pictures, and relaxed, informal pictures of their Guests and evening Guests, it was time for us to leave. -

Wedding Photography for Estelle & Wayne – The Fennes Estate, Bocking
Estelle and Wayne chose the superb Wedding Venue, The Fennes, for their Wedding. Regardless of the weather this has to be one of the very best Venues to take photographs at and this Wedding proved to be no exception. We photographed Wayne immediately we arrived outside Fennes, knowing the rain was not going to hold off for long! Bridal preparations were going on upstairs in the Fennes Suite, giving us ample space to do so nice portraits of Estelle, her family and Bridesmaids.
Following the Civil Ceremony in the Pavilion, Guests made their way to the front of the house for the Drinks Reception. Using the Gold Room for the photographs worked well for the requested family groups, having the experience of having this happen many times certainly helps! After a break as it was still raining we took Estelle and Wayne for a walk around the inside of Fennes, stopping every now and then for a few pictures. During the Wedding Breakfast, with us being there all the way through the Wedding, we noticed the rain had stopped. Asking the couple if they wanted to go outside, we were greeted with a delighted ‘yes’. With ‘wellies’ on, off we went together with David of Rideout Productions, had great fun, capturing lovely pictures.
Following the Wedding Breakfast, Speeches followed and later Cake cutting and First Dance pictures. What a day! Thank you to Wayne and Estelle for your smiles, laughter, all day long. Great also working with Rideout as always and all the staff at Fennes.

Wedding Photography for Lauren & Greg – The Fennes Estate, Bocking
It was a beautiful day when we arrived at Fennes for Lauren and Greg’s Wedding, perfect for an outside Civil Ceremony. Whilst the girls were getting ready and having some pictures taken, upstairs in the House, the boys were making their final preparations before a few pictures. Later, Lauren made her way through the Gold Room and out into the sunshine to be greeted by Greg and the Wedding Guests waiting at the Gazebo.
After the Civil Ceremony, Lauren and Greg greeted and mingled with their Guests during the outside Drinks Reception and we took their family group photographs and some fun bridal party pictures. Timings were perfect, allowing time for taking Lauren and Greg for a few minutes around Fennes for their pictures.
Prior to the Wedding Breakfast, Lauren and Greg were showered in confetti in the Gold Room. Speeches followed the Wedding Breakfast then everybody relaxed outside in the evening sunshine. A wonderful sunset provided Lauren and Greg with some lovely images before the evening celebrations. 
Thanks to Lauren and Greg for asking us to join them at Wedding Breakfast as two guests were unable to attend. As always, thanks to all the staff at Fennes who are always great to work with. -

Wedding Photography for Kelly & Tommy – The Fennes Estate
We arrived at Kelly’s parents’ house where everything was going well with the final preparations. As it was a lovely day, when Kelly was ready we went into the garden for some pictures of Kelly, Bridesmaids and Parents. Once these were taken we made our way to Fennes where Kelly and Tommy chose to have their Wedding. Tommy and his Groomsmen were ready to have their photographs taken, before Kelly arrived. As the weather was really good, the Civil Ceremony was taking place outside in the Gazebo, where the Guests were seated. Kelly arrived at Fennes and made her way to the Ceremony through the Gold Room.
Family group pictures, fun bridal party shots followed after the Ceremony during the Drinks Reception. We took Kelly and Tommy for a few pictures around the grounds of Fennes in between them socialising with their Guests. 
As the Guests made their way to the Wedding Breakfast in the Pavilion, we had a little time with Kelly and Tommy for some fun relaxed photographs in the Gold Room and the front part of the house.
Following the Wedding Breakfast and Speeches, Kelly and Tommy wanted some pictures in The Fennes Suite before their evening celebrations. First Dance and evening pictures completed our coverage of their Wedding.
