“You’re the love of my life, my entire world…”
Nothing beats a gentle stroll around the grounds of Hales Hall during golden hour at the end of a perfect September day! The only direction we gave Abby & Karl was to “walk and talk” and they made it look effortless as they seemed so completely chilled and in their own little world.
Fantastic as always to work with the talented Katherine Ashdown Photography.
“She’s got a smile that could light up any room”, declared Elliott as he proudly stood up in front of his family and friends to introduce his new wife Holly.
…and he was right! Holly was beaming from the moment we first arrived at her parent’s house. Elliott also had the biggest smile when he first caught sight of little Phoebe followed my her Mum Holly walking down the aisle. Later, they hopped in the VW Beetle and headed to their favourite spot at a local beach for some chill out time complete with plenty of smiles all round!•

Big thanks to the awesome Heather Jackson Photography for asking us to be a part of a Styled Shoot she put together at one of our favourite venues Chippenham Park back in May. Heather pulled together an amazing team of top-notch wedding suppliers to bring her elegant and boho theme to life, complete with Dutch twist. We also had the pleasure of listening to the brilliant Joe Bailey perform live throughout the day too, providing the perfect soundtrack to this little film we put together.

What rain?? These two definitely didn’t let a few drops of water spoil their fun as they embraced the rain and wind for a quick scoot around the grounds at White Dove Barns. With Katie and Steve getting ready just a few steps away from each other there was plenty of nipping back and forth to film all those little moments we love capturing….and there were plenty of them!
When Amy said “I feel like the luckiest girl in the world” during her speech, all eyes were on James as he tried to hold it together. Just one reason why we love the growing trend of bride’s plucking up the courage to give a speech during the wedding breakfast.
What an total pleasure to be back at Bruisyard Hall (is it always blue skies and sunshine in this part of Suffolk?). We love the set up for morning preperations, with the bridal and groom’s parties getting ready just down the corridor from each other. There was plenty of nipping back and forth for all those important little moments such as the exchange of gifts, the dress reveal and a first for us… The First Touch – which involved some serious logistical planning!
Flashback to an awesome summer day at Elms Barn in Suffolk for Maddy & Sam’s wedding. After an intimate ceremony at Fritton Church we worked the blustery weather to our advantage for an epic confetti run! Later, back at Elms Barn we were blessed with blanket blue skies as Maddy & Sam literally giggled their way around the rose garden for the couple shoot.
Good fun working with Mr James Rouse Photography again too.
One of our favourites from earlier this summer. What an absolute treat to shoot this one! Details galore, two lovely families and a beautiful new venue for us at Kenton Hall in the lush Suffolk countryside. There are so many priceless little moments in this film, from Dad’s first glimpse of the dress to an impromptu first dance rehearsal at sunset. The very talented bride Kristin also hand crafted all the wedding signs (Victoria Steward Signs). Pleasure as always to work alongside photographer Dominic Whitten once again too.
We were thoroughly spoilt on Jess & Kristain’s big day – blessed with the perfect combination of a super chilled couple, blue skies, the lush venue and gardens at Chippenham Park, a beautiful outdoor wedding, lovely personalised vows, kilts…we could go on! Later these guys totally nailed their afternoon shoot around the gardens and parkland and needed no direction from us whatsoever, looking totally smitten with each other all day. Gorgeous!
Another lovely new venue for us to have a good old nose around… But before the afternoon celebrations kicked off at the lush Kenton Hall we headed deep in to the rural Suffolk countryside for Luke & Kristin’s morning preperations at their respective family homes. After a quick dash to the beautiful Dennington Church, Kristin and her proud Dad Greg had quite the walk to reach Luke at top of one very long aisle! Later, it was blue skies all the way at Kenton Hall as guests chilled in the gardens. The attention to detail was off the scale, with all the signs around the venue hand made by the very talented bride herself at Victoria Steward Signs. We were blessed with some gorgeous early evening light as we took the new Mr & Mrs off for for a wander. These two were so super-chilled they even treated us to an impromptu first dance rehearal as the sun set behind them. Magic!
Great as ever to work with brilliant photographer Dominic Whiten too.
Long sweeping driveway…check! Lots of Autumnal colours…check! Stunning handmade wedding decor…check! Add blue skies and heaps of sunshine and you’re spoiling us! We started the day at The Oaksmere Hotel in Eye with that aforementioned long treelined driveway as childhood sweethearts Paige & Sam got ready literally in neighbouring rooms. We’re not quite sure how everyone managed to keep them from seeing each other but they did! Then it was deep in to the rolling Suffolk countryside to the little gem that is Wingfield Barns. White pumpkins lined the driveway and along the aisle and the attention to detail was incredible, all hand-created by Paige and Sam. After a beautiful ceremony complete with personalised hand written vows, guests lined up for a Autumn twist on confetti as they threw lots of orange leaves on the new Mr & Mrs. There were so many places to explore for our couple shoot and Paige braved the cold and ventured through woods and across windswept fields to capture some absolutely gorgeous shots.
