Yesterday saw me shooting my final wedding of 2011 and I couldn’t have asked for lovelier couple or better December weather, even if it was a bit cold. Julia and Dan were married at Fanhams Hall Hotel in Ware and it was day full of love and laughter when they were joined by their family and friends. They were married in the Great Hall which is always a stunning venue and even more so at this time of year with the Christmas decorations up. Dan had even written and recorded a song for his ‘Princess’ and this was theme was enhanced by an astounding fairy-tale castle cake hand made by one of their guests – it certainly got my ‘Cake of the Year’ award!

Dan and Julia are leaving for a three week honeymoon tomorrow that will include Peru and St. Lucia, have a great time and here are just a few pictures from yesterday.

In a few weeks time Julia and Deiniol are to be married at Fanhams Hall in Ware and as part of their wedding photography package we met today to run through the final details and do a few photographs. Rather than use Fanhams Hall we had a stroll through Hatfield Forest near Takeley in Essex and we were very lucky to avoid the fog and gloominess that had been prevalent all week. Quite a few laughs were had and I’m really looking forward to the wedding in December, fingers crossed for another day of lovely weather.

It was great to be back at Fanhams Hall Hotel in Ware for Rebecca and Mike’s wedding. Rebecca is a portrait photographer (no pressure ) and Mike is very laid back and they were quite happy to let me do my thing. Since I was last at Fanhams Hall the leaves have started to turn and there’s a bit of a chill in the air and unfortunately we were greeted with gale force winds and driving rain. However there is no point in worrying about the one thing you can’t control and it did little to dampen the spirits of their family and friends. Rebecca and Mike certainly didn’t let it bother them and everyone had a fantastic day.

Yet again I had another great couple that it was an absolute pleasure to photograph and I’d like to wish them the very best for their honeymoon in Thailand and Borneo.

On to some pictures…..
