GRACE & DAVID'S LANGTONS HOUSE WEDDING

It has been wonderful seeing couples change their approach to weddings over the last few years. I have always photographed smaller weddings, but there has been a distinct rise in couples choosing intimate weddings and I am here for it. Grace and David had a twilight winter wedding at Langtons House in Hornchurch. We chose to mix things up and started the afternoon with portraits in Langtons Gardens. Their close family and friends then joined us for photos before heading into the house for their twilight ceremony. Lastly we wandering outside after dark for confetti and to throw the bouquet. For anyone thinking of doing things differently, go for it!

SACHI & JOSHUA'S GOSFIELD HALL WEDDING

Today, I am sharing some of my favourite photos from Sachi and Joshua’s Sri Lankan British fusion wedding at Gosfield Hall in Essex. There were traditional Sri Lankan wedding customs, a sword, drummers and dancers, followed by a Christian blessing, confetti, wonderful speeches, sparklers, a champagne tower and lots of dancing! Certainly a day to remember. Congratulations Sachi and Joshua.

After the traditional Sri Lankan ceremony, Sachi and Joshua returned to their suite to get ready for their blessing ceremony whilst the guests enjoyed the Sri Lankan drummers and dance.

After the blessing, we popped outside for a few group photos before dinner.

CHRIS & LIZZIE'S VAULTY MANOR WEDDING

Today, I am sharing my first wedding at Vaulty Manor in Maldon Essex. It was a fabulous place to be on the bank holiday weekend. Plenty of sunshine, smiles and laughter. Both Chris and Lizzie got ready at the venue, which was great in terms of logistics. The ceremony was indoors in the barn, with the drinks reception on the patios. The fine weather meant that we were able to take a few leisurely walks on the grounds to make the most of the venue at different times of day. Check out some highlights from their day.

ED & RACHEL'S THAMES CHASE WEDDING

This wedding was a lovely local one for me. Ed and Rachel’s wedding ceremony was at Langtons House in Hornchurch in the Grand Hall. Then they held their reception at Thames Chase forest in Upminster Essex. It’s not the first time one of my groom’s has changed into shorts and a Hawaiian shirt after their ceremony, which summed up the wonderfully relaxed vibe of the day.

After photos in Langtons Gardens, we headed to Thames Chase in Upminster for the reception. Ed and Rachel hired the Essex Barn on the edge of the woodlands which is available for dry hire. With the help of family and friends, the barn was transformed. It was a chilled relaxed afternoon in the sunshine and the evening party was as vibrant as the colourful decor.

MELANIE & NEIL'S INGATESTONE HALL WEDDING

Here we go, a little sample of Melanie & Neil’s super chilled vibrant wedding at Ingatestone Hall which is nestled in the Essex countryside. Ingatestone Hall is full of historical charm and set in the most stunning landscape. I loved it. Enough talking from me, see for yourself. Especially check out the party photos, that dance floor was on fire!

The rain held off to enable Melanie and Neil to have an outdoor wedding ceremony nestled in the woodlands of Ingatestone Hall, and their drinks reception within the scenic walled gardens.

Dinner and dancing took place in the marquee under the vibrant decor installed by Bubblegum Balloons.

DILYS & PHIL'S WEDDING THAT AMAZING PLACE

Today I am taking you back to Dilys and Phil’s fusion summer wedding at That Amazing Place. I had the most brilliant day with the most smiley and giggly couple I think I have ever met. When they smiled, I smiled. It was deliciously infectious. Dilys and Phil got ready at The Amazing Place in the company of close friends and family. Their ceremony took place outdoors by the lake which made a perfect backdrop.

Dinner took place in the marquee on the lawns, but not before Dilys and Phil danced into the venue following the bridal and groom’s party who weren’t afraid to show us their dance moves. After the speeches, Dilys decided to throw her bouquet outside and the women didn’t disappoint when it came to racing for the bouquet. As the evening drew in, the guests moved into the main house and hit the dancefloor. Dilys and Phil changed into traditional African dress during the evening and rejoined the dancefloor looking absolutely superb.

Thank you Dilys and Phil for having Teri and I capture your day, we felt honoured and you have left us with lasting memories that we will cherish.

COLIN & HAYLEY'S EAST MERSEA HALL WEDDING

My first wedding at East Mersea Hall was an absolute cracker. The venue was new and had opened just weeks before. Tucked away in the countryside, the grounds of the venue were beautiful and a short drive away from East Mersea beach. Colin and Hayley were married at St Edmund Church which was on the grounds of East Mersea Hall. After a confetti exit, Colin and Hayley led the guests back to East Mersea Hall for drinks, canapes and oysters. Dinner was opened by some pretty hilarious speeches by the father of the bride, Colin and the two bestmen. After an evening walk around the grounds with Colin and Hayley, they kicked off the evening with their first dance and a whole lot of dancing. Here are a few of my favourite photos from their day.

NOEL & NATACHA'S THAT AMAZING PLACE WEDDING

On the blog today is Natacha and Noel’s autumn wedding at That Amazing Place in Harlow Essex. Full of smiles, laughter and the occasional emotional tear.

Here’s another one for you. Check out Dilys and Phil’s summer wedding at That Amazing Place.

ELIZABETH & RAYMOND'S GOSFIELD HALL WEDDING

2022 started with the elegant Gosfield Hall winter wedding of Elizabeth and Raymond. Navy, gold and white were the overarching colour theme of the day. We had a brilliant day, plenty of smiles and laughter.

Raymond and the groomsmen got ready in an adjacent suite to Elizabeth. This made it easier to capture both of them getting ready.

The ceremony took place in the Long Gallery.

After the ceremony, Raymond and Elizabeth led the guests outside into the courtyard to throw confetti before joining them inside for drinks.

Being winter, it was pretty cold so we weren’t planning to venture outside, but there was a rather unexpected heavy hailstone shower to made the grounds look as though it had snowed. We nipped outside briefly to take a few photos, and then the sun started to break through the clouds giving us both a snowy and golden look. It was a perfect Disney fairytale moment!

Before the guests were seated for dinner, we spent 10 minutes taking a few photos inside of Gosfield Hall, incorporating the stunning decor into portraits of Raymond and Elizabeth.

The reception room styling was stunning, brought together by florist Elegance of Essex, providing a warm setting for dinner and speeches.

WEDDING CEREMONY - QUESTIONS TO ASK

Whether you have already chosen the date and location for your wedding ceremony or still deciding, there are plenty of questions that you need to ask the person conducting your ceremony including a few about wedding photography. I asked friends, family and my past couples what questions they asked when planning their own wedding ceremonies.  Everyone was very generous in sharing questions and experiences, so much so that I had a tough time narrowing down a top ten. Instead I settled on the top twenty questions to ask whoever is presiding over your service!

1. Can you talk me through what to expect before and during the ceremony?

2. What do we need to provide before the wedding (for example, birth certificate)?

3. Are we required to take any premarital or religious classes prior to the ceremony?

4. How much does the ceremony cost?

5. How long does the service take? The average length of a church wedding ceremony is 45 minutes, however, ceremonies in a registry office can be just 20 minutes long.

6. How many guests can the church/venue accommodate during the service?

7. Where will everyone stand/sit during the ceremony…bridal party, readers, etc?

8. What are the legalities? A friend explained how her ceremony took place in a 700 year old chapel which was bound by ancient rules and customs.  Written permission was required from all members of the choir/organist in order to have a videographer. Fortunately, this didn’t cause a problem. Always check about copyright of any music needed, ask if venues have legal permission and relevant licenses to play the songs that you would like.

9. Can guests park at the ceremony location? “It may sound a bit practical but it’s handy to know about parking as the church we used had people to direct parking and they kept areas clear for us to arrive and leave.”

10. How can we personalise the ceremony? There are often opportunities for you to make your service personal to you from customising your order of service to writing your own wedding vows. Remember to ask for ideas and examples.

11. Is there another ceremony booked immediately before or after ours?

12. For an outdoor ceremony, what is the backup plan in case it rains?

13. Are there musical instruments available for use such as a piano or organ? Are there any bylaws or restrictions on when the church bells can be rung?

14. Can we have a rehearsal and who should attend?

15. Are there any photography or videography restrictions? Do you allow the use of flash photography? Some registrars or vicars object to the use of flash photography and have strict rules about when photos cannot be taken such as during the vows or at the signing of the register. Always check beforehand so that you and others can be prepared.

16. Where and when can photos be taken?

17. What is the cancellation policy?

18. What time before the ceremony can we have access to decorate?

19. Can we take our flowers from the ceremony venue to the reception venue?

20. Are we allowed to throw confetti?

21. And one more for luck and my personal favourite, which came up more than once…can you have tissues at the ready? “We had someone leave a bottle of water and some tissues in the front pew of the bride’s side of the church as bridemaids don’t have pockets or handbags!”

NICOLA & JASON'S OLD BROOK BARN WEDDING

Sunshine, chilled out and a whole lot of smiles was the general vibe of the day. Back in the autumn I photographed Nicola and Jason’s wedding at Old Brook Barn in Navestock Essex. When Nicola and Jason first contacted me about their wedding, they explained that they wanted a very relaxed style of photography and they didn’t want lots of formal stage photos. It was more about capturing everyone having a good time in a candid way.

Nicola literally smiled from ear to ear the entire time, and in her gorgeous alternative glittery dress she was glowing. I spent just three hours with Nicola and Jason that day but I left buzzing. Their happiness was infectious.

After the drinks reception, all the guests went inside the barn for a BBQ catered by Limeberry Catering whilst Simone played the saxophone on the barn’s veranda.

CHERYL & STUART'S LEEZ PRIORY WEDDING

Last year, Cheryl and Stuart asked me to photograph their winter wedding at Leez Priory in Chelmsford Essex. We were blessed with sunshine and blue skies for their November wedding. Nestled in the Essex countryside, Leez Priory was previously a monastery but now functions as a wedding venue with a beautiful historical charm.

Here are a few of my favourite photographs from Cheryl and Stuart’s Leez Priory wedding.

Stuart being a big Tottenham Hotspurs football fan incorporated the classic blue and white colours into the wedding decor. Tables were named after famous Spurs players.

The grounds at Leez Priory are beautiful and with the weather on our side, Cheryl and Stuart were able to enjoy a walk around to some of the iconic spots at the venue. The guests joined us outside to throw confetti before heading in for dinner.

After dark, Cheryl and Stuart had organised a surprise fireworks display for the guests. Then everyone headed inside for the first dance.

Thank you Cheryl and Stuart for choosing me to capture your wedding day.

LUCY & BRADLEY'S HUTTON HALL WEDDING

Let’s take a look back to the Autumn when we photographed Lucy and Bradley’s wedding at Hutton Hall.

Lucy and Bradley got married at All Saints C of E Church in Hutton which is a short walk away from Hutton Hall.

The church bells rang for Lucy and Bradley which is quite an honour to hear. After a cheerful confetti greeting, the guests walked back to Hutton Hall for the drinks reception. Whilst Lucy and Bradley went for a short drive in the Rolls Royce, we photographed the wedding decor in the marquee.

Fortunately the rain held off in order for us to photograph Lucy and Bradley with their friends and family in the gardens.

The guests welcomed Lucy and Bradley into dinner, which was served by Premier Crew. Speeches took place after dinner and had the room belly laughing and teary in equal measure.

The evening party was opened by Lucy and Bradley’s first dance.

Thank you Lucy and Bradley for choosing me to capture your wedding day.

FIFTY WEDDING MOMENTS of 2022

Here we are, fifty of my favourite moments from 2022! Wholesome, heartfelt and personal. These fifty shots are the reason why I don’t interrupt anything about your day. These are why I stay in the wings, observing and waiting for these moments to unfold, which sometimes happen in just a split second. These are the photographs that make you say “Damn girl! I didn’t know you got that!”

For me, these moments are absolute gold and a joy to look back on. Check them out, you will see what I mean!

I often get asked if I take the traditional type group shots. The answer is yes, but they don’t have to be as formal as you think. Check out my blog post showing how Group Shots Don’t Have To Be Boring.

CONFETTI SHOTS THAT ROCK

Confetti shots are awesome. They remain one of the most iconic and requested wedding photographs. I love a confetti shot, especially the ones that are vibrant and full of laughter. Here are my top tips for getting the best wedding confetti photographs.

Plan ahead

To get that perfect confetti shot, it is worth planning ahead and nailing a couple of my top tips. I promise, when you see your confetti photos, they will rock and you will be glad that you did!

CONFETTI SHOT DURING THE DRINKS RECEPTION OUTSIDE OF OLD BROOK BARN IN ESSEX

Bring lots of your own confetti

Go large or go home! Provide the confetti for your guests and tons of it!. Guests rarely bring confetti to weddings any more, so provide plenty and put it in containers that people can easily use. Big baskets will do, so that people can grab large handfuls and there will be less wastage of packaging too. Two handfuls per person is the minimum amount to aim for.

OUTDOOR CONFETTI SHOT AT THE REID ROOMS ESSEX

Talk to your venue to find out their rules

Check with your venue(s) if and where confetti is allowed. Some venues will have restrictions on where confetti can be thrown especially if they are venues accessible to the general public or if they have wildlife on the grounds to protect.

CONFETTI thrown AFTER an elegant OUTDOOR WEDDING CEREMONY IN SANTORINI GREECE

Plan for indoors and outdoors

Confetti shots don’t have to be outside. Check with your venue. Some are happy to help orchestrate confetti shots indoors before your reception dinner, or allow confetti cannons for your first dance which look pretty awesome by the way. Think creatively of how to make it fun and get others involved.

gold CONFETTI CANNONS DURING THE FIRST DANCE AT HOUCHINS ESSEX

Throw like you mean it

It’s confetti. What can possibly go wrong?! I always give the guests a few tips on how to throw confetti to get the best effect….including check the wind direction! We want your photos to have the wow factor. It helps massively if people don’t have drinking glasses and handbags on them, or at the very least not in their throwing hand! Basically we are trying to avoid handbags, beer and wine being thrown instead of confetti (trust me, it’s happened). No guest wants to be that person who threw red wine at the bride by accident!

Think about the different styles of confetti

Most venues prefer natural confetti, such as dried rose petals, which are kinder to the environment. We recommend choosing a medium sized biodegradable confetti. Too small and it won’t photograph well. Too big (such as fresh rose petals) and if falls like bricks. We want volume and for it to flutter!

Don’t lose heart if your venue(s) doesn’t permit confetti. There are other creative options. Guests could blow bubbles, throw dried leaves, or wave streamers or pompoms. There is plenty of fun to be had and there is more than one way to do it!

BUBBLES AND CONFETTI AT ST GERMAIN CHURCH NEAR BLAKE HALL ESSEX

Choose your confetti colours wisely

Think about the colour of your confetti. General rule of thumb is choose dark or bright vibrant colours if you are throwing confetti in an area that is light/airy and open. Choose light colours if your background or environment is dark.

Don’t run. Walk slowly.

Walk slower than normal. You’re not trying to race to the end to get it over and done with. You want to enjoy it, let your guests embrace the moment too, giving your photographer plenty of time to capture the actions and expressions.

Smile and keep your head up

The temptation is to lower your head when confetti is being launched. It’s a perfectly natural defensive reaction. We want you to do the complete opposite. Keep your head up, belly laugh until your stomach hurts, and most of all, enjoy the moment!
