It was our first visit to Jepcracks Barn, Great Totham, which is where Alison and her family were getting ready and we were very impressed. With the converted barn being so light, it made for some nice images. Everything was running well and being happy with what we had captured we left to go to Crabbs Barn, Kelvedon. On arrival, Guests who had arrived, were enjoying the sunshine in the grounds of Crabbs Barn. It was nice to see some familar faces again, seen at previous Weddings. After taking a few pictures of Nathan and his Best Men, and with Nathan safely inside the Barn, Alison arrived with her Father and Bridesmaids. Following the Civil Ceremony, everyone enjoyed the Drinks Reception, in between some requested family pictures. During the afternoon a few fun Bridal Party pictures were taken and a few Bride and Groom portraits around Crabbs Barn.
Speeches followed the Wedding Breakfast in the Barn, followed by everyone exiting the Barn enjoying the early evening warmth. We took Alison and Nathan down the lane beside the Barn for a short while and captured some lovely shots, including some wonderful sunset pictures, thank you Alison and Nathan! 
Evening Guests arrived before the First Dance and shortly afterwards it was time for us to leave.

Wedding Photography for Anne & Stephen – St Michael's Church, Braintree & Crabbs Barn, Kelvedon
It was a lovely hot sunny day when David and I arrived at Anne’s family home for the final bridal preparations. Everything was running smoothly and before long Anne and her Bridesmaids were ready for some photographs in the garden. Anne and Stephen chose to be married in the lovely St. Michael’s Church, Braintree, (a great favourite of ours – we were married there !). Stephen, his Best Man and Ushers were greeting Guests when we arrived but we were able to steal them away for a few minutes for some pictures.
After the Church service, Anne, Stephen and their Guests mingled in the grounds of the Church in between the taking their family group photographs. A special picture not to be missed was of Anne with the children from her Class at School. Anne and Stephen made their way out of the Church though a shower of confetti for the drive to Crabbs Barn, Kelvedon, for the Reception. A few Bride and Groom pictures, as well as informal images were taken at times before the Wedding Breakfast. Early evening light provides us with some of our best pictures and Anne and Stephen were keen to take advantage of our experience, so after Speeches, we created some great photographs, walking in the lane, with the long grass and the setting sun, wonderful!
Our night ended with pictures of evening Guests and the First Dance. A great day, thank you Anne and Stephen! -
Pre-Wedding Pictures
By the time we arrived at Danbury Country Park early one morning recently, the sun was beginning to break through, ready for some pre-wedding pictures for Sally and Steve. We took an enjoyable stroll around the park, stopping at various spots for some lovely photographs. Sally and Steve are getting married at Braxted Park, Witham, later in the year.

Wedding Testimonial – Laura & Jonathan's Wedding – Braxted Park
It is always a pleasure to receive a ‘Thank You’ and we were especially happy to receive this one from Laura’s Parents.
Dear David and Sandra
Now that Laura and Jonathan are back from honeymoon we have seen the first draft of the wedding photographs, which has prompted me to write to you – as I had been intending for the past few weeks.
As you know, we had a wonderful day (except for the weather!) and the photos are a fantastic memory of that. From a very quick look the other day I am so impressed by what you have done and I’m really looking forward to seeing the finished product.
I would also like to thank you both for your involvement on the day. You were so patient,helpful, unobtrusive and professional.
I really cannot praise you and thank you enough. One does hear wedding photographers horror stories and you were both so far from that. Thank you.
Very best wishes
Andrew and Liz
