Wedding photography Rushton Hall - Leanne and Charles are married!

Yesterday saw another lovely wedding, the marriage of Leanne and Charles. They married at All Saints Church in Rushton, with their reception following just down the road at Rushton Hall.

We started with bridal prep, joining Leanne and her bridesmaids, before meeting Charles and the 'men in suits' at the church. Then it was on to the magnificent Rushton Hall where we went for a wander around the grounds with them after the wedding breakfast.

Here are a few images as a 'sneak peak', including one of their son Jake who took a bit of a shine to their wedding car, a vintage Daimler:

























Congratulations to the two of you!

Wedding photography Hothorpe Hall - Katie and Aird are married!

We had a fabulous day on Friday as Katie and Aird were married at St Nicholas Church, Little Bowden, with their reception following at Hothorpe Hall.

Not to be outdone by the gorgeous bride and bridesmaids, Aird and his best men - his brothers Alec and Ian - were resplendent in kilts.

We left the party in full swing after their carefully choreographed first dance.

Here's a little peak of some early favourites:

























Congratulations Katie and Aird!

Wedding photography Leez Priory, Essex - Sadrina and Mike are married!

On Tuesday evening I headed down to Essex for Sadrina and Mike's wedding yesterday. They were married at Holy Cross Church, Felstead, and their reception followed at the award winning Leez Priory.

Sadrina wore a gorgeous Caroline Castigliano wedding gown, and spoilt me with two pairs of shoes! And there was a sweet bar (especially for the ring shot!!).

Here are a few early favourites:

























Congratulations Sadrina and Mike! I'll look forward to meeting up with you after your honeymoon.

Wedding photography Quinton House, Northampton - Rebecca and Daniel are married!

Wow! Rebecca and Daniel had a day to remember yesterday as they were married at the magnificent Quinton House in Northampton.



They had so many fun elements - the bridal party danced down the aisle, there was an ice cream van, marching drummers, space hoppers, a sweet bar, and the marquee was decorated in a black and white Hollywood theme complete with a backdrop of Hollywood stars for us to photograph the guests against as they went into the wedding breakfast.

The few early favourites that follow give just a little hint of their day:





The entrance of the bridal party, which was a surprise to all the guests:

















Now, I have to confess that when I meet couples for the first time for a wedding consultation I usually, just slightly tongue in cheek, hint that if we're photographing the bridal preparations I like to spend a good half an hour with the brides shoes. Daniel was looking particularly dapper (said I'd get that word in!) yesterday, and excelled himself with his shoes. I can't let this become a habit!



Congratulations Mr and Mrs Manners! What a fabulous day!

Wedding Photography Rockingham Castle - Alex and Nick are married!

Alex and Nick had a lovely wedding yesterday at St Leonard's Church, Rockingham, and their reception followed at the overlooking Rockingham Castle.

The overcast skies of earlier in the day cleared to give a lovely warm late afternoon/early evening light and we took advantage of this to wander round the gorgeous gardens after the wedding breakfast to get some pictures of the two of them.

Here's a preview of a few favourites from their day:























Just as we were about to leave the sweet bar came out, and I couldn't resist this picture of Alex and her bridesmaids Vicky and Katie with their moustaches!!



Congratulations Alex and Nick! It was a real pleasure to be there to capture your day for you.
