As a wedding photographer, when you meet a couple prior to their wedding you can get a fair idea of what the big day is going to be like. After todays meeting with Paula and Andy I think I can safely predict that their wedding next week at Woolston Manor in Essex is going to be a riot with a lot of laughter. We had some good fun today at the pre-wedding shoot and I’m really looking forward to next Saturday.

This evening I had the pleasure of doing Amanda and Graham’s pre-wedding photography shoot in anticipation of their wedding at Parklands Quendon Hall in Essex in a couple of weeks. Unfortunately we were greeted with blustery weather but this could not dampen their enthusiasm for the photo-shoot – whatever happened to flaming June! The wedding sounds like it will be a lot of fun and I’m really looking forward to the big day as I will have a great venue and a fantastic couple, what more could I ask for?

After yesterdays rain it was good to see a bit of sunshine today albeit it was a bit blustery. I met Mark and Gemma at Bluntswood Hall where they are having their wedding in June. This wedding is definitely going to be a bit different and I am sworn to secrecy on a lot of the details but I can tell you there will eleven (yes, eleven!) dogs in attendance – two border terriers and nine flat coated retrievers. It promises to be a very relaxing and somewhat quirky day and I am really looking forward it, this is exactly my type of event.

Enough of that, here are some shots from this morning….

Today I had the pleasure of taking the pre-wedding shots for my friends Anne and Andrew who are getting married in a couple of weeks at Tylney Hall Hotel in Hampshire. This was my first trip to this venue and I must say from a wedding photographers point of view it doesn’t get much better – the grounds are extensive with many paths, hidden walled areas and sweeping vistas leading to lakes surrounded by mature trees. Unfortunately the weather was not kind to us with squally showers and it felt far too cold for May!

This morning I did the pre-wedding photography shoot with Sav and Lindsay who are getting married at Parklands, Quendon Hall in a couple of weeks. They are a very relaxed couple to work with and I know we are going to have a lot of fun in a couple of weeks.

Luckily the weather was kind to us today and we managed a few quality shots in between making the final preparations for the big day.
