Stock Brook Manor Wedding of Denise & Adam

28th March 2013 was the wedding of the lovely Denise & Adam.  I loved this wedding they were so welcoming and the couple trusted every suggestion i made & not once complained about the cold.

The wedding took place at the lovely Stock Brook Manor in Essex. Denise look stunning her hair was lovely & so was her dress, very much my taste in dress.  This couple were lovely apart but when they were together you could see the spark…something special between them.

Adam truly is a romantic with a note in a frame we saw in the morning & he bought Denise beautiful shoes for the wedding day.

The couple got engaged in New  York so had a rough new york theme to the day with a cake with the new york skyline & table plan, table names etc.

Denise & Adam had a beautiful Horse & Carriage on their day which really added a fairytale element to their day.  We used the horse & carriage in the background of some of the images too for interest.

Denise even was stroking one of the horses and it nudged her on the back which we caught while she laughed at Adam the reaction was so natural.

I remember their wedding probably mostly because of Adams Speech he is a good storyteller and his speech was just that about how they met and how they got engaged and it certainly kept the guests engaged. The best mans speech well he got another friend who was very close to the groom who couldnt make the wedding as he lived abroad, record a speech which the best man played from his mobile over the microphone. Easy job done and it was a great speech at that and everyone was engaged again probably as they were listening and not watching.

The day was super & the couple were over the moon with their images & couldn’t thank me enough.

Heres the video with the speech featured as explained above by the talented Ride out Films:

Friends Wedding – Leez Priory Sophie & Adam

This is the wedding of Sophie & Adam on  28th March who was best friends with the post below for Louise & Sean.

Held just 13 days after their friends Sophie & Adam had their own style of wedding with also a vintage theme but with a completely different twist & details using hessian bunting, hand made paper flowers on tables with jam jars with their names on and a top table arrangement was a wooden sign saying The Martins which is their surname.

Sophie & Adams daughter was a very beautiful flower girl.

The weather held out for Sophie & Adams though still a colder day but the weather was once again a perfect day for wedding photography.

One of out favourites from this wedding has to be the dipping shoot infront of the tower that Amanda took the veil was pulled out by chantelle with her quick escape.  Just a stunning Image.

We placed some vintage filters that are new to us on some of these photos we also have a new flare package to create  a sun flare even on overcast days that make the images look also soft & Vintage.

Heres a slideshow of their images too:

Leez Priory – Vintage Style Wedding Louise & Sean

15th March 2013 we shot the lovely wedding of Louise & Sean.  We met Louise & Sean then we realised we had shot some of their friends weddings, & Louise had worked with Stacey many many years ago before Photography.

We then also learnt that Louise’s bridesmaid was getting married just 13 days after at the same venue & they were each others bridesmaids.  So we were luckily enough going to shoot both weddings.

Stacey & Chantelle photographed Louise & Seans wedding while Amanda & Chantelle photographed Sophie & Adam’s.  Nice to have slightly different photographer on these weddings as they were so close together for very close friends & at the same venue so each photographer made them different but also similar   We worked hard behind the scenes at meeting to get this to work for both brides as we didn’t want the photos to look the same but also not be too far different.

Louise & Sean’s wedding started a little late as we managed to make it to the venue before louise as she was delayed at the hairdressers.  But she arrived and full speed ahead we got her ready & the day ran smoothly.  It was an overcast day so perfect for wedding photography, was a little cold but Louise was determined not to wear a bolero or such like as she wanted her photos to look a certain way.

Very much an old english vintage theme at this wedding with Louise’s hair which i must admit was a personal favourite of mine as it was loose yet tight and didnt move it was lovely and really suited Louise, and her dress colours used etc.

Louise & Sean where complimented but their lovely two sons/pageboys who were really well behaved.  A touch for me is the two boys carrying a blackboards/sign down the asle before louise saying here comes the bride.

Then both boys stood side by side while the eldest boy gave the rings to his mum & dad during the ceremony…bless.

This was the first wedding we tried out our new slideshow software & created a preview of images before their big viewing.  We do this atm for all weddings details of this will be finalised soon.

Boreham House Chelmsford – Winter Weddings

20th February 2013 we Photographed the wedding of Emily & Jonathan at All Saints Church Springfield Green Chelmsford, followed by a reception at the beautiful & grand Boreham House.

This was indeed the coldest wedding we have had this year and bless Emily she survived the freezing cold, probably helped by her very cleverly chosen fur coat.

We knew this wedding was going to be different as during the engagement shoot we noticed that Jonathan was certainly a character & a very bubbly person, he whispered to us also about the idea that he was planning the transport and that he was going to hire a fire engine as Emily’s dad was a fireman.  They hired the engine from a local company called Hot Hire.

Emily had chosen a very sensible hair style for a winter wedding of a clean half tied back style so no wind was going to mess her hair up for the photos.

We took some great shoots both at the brides house & at Boreham house with the fire engine.  The bride arrived to the church with the sirens going on the engine to make her entrance & made the locals heads turn.

At Boreham House Jonathan could not resist putting on a fireman’s hat to take some photos with Emily.

The day ran smoothly & the end result was a mixture of both their personalties of fun & romantic.
