Wedding Photography at The Manor of Groves near Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire

On Saturday Steve photographed Caroline and Rob’s wedding at the Manor of Groves in High Wych near Sawbridgeworth in Hertfordshire for RT Weddings. The weather forecast had been for light rain but the sky was showing a different story as it was dry and overcast.

After meeting the groom, groom’s men and parents at St. Michael’s Church in Bishop’s Stortford for a few pre-wedding photographs it was time to go to the bride’s home which was just minutes away.

The bride arrived with her brother in a lovely convertable vintage sports car.

After the ceremony there was time for some group shots at the front of the church before moving on to the Manor of Groves for the wedding reception.

The Manor of Groves is a great location for a wedding as it has some lovely gardens and a beautiful outdoor staircase perfect for some stylish photographs.

As well as taking the formal group shots, Steve took some lovely romantic shots of the couple.

I was asked if I could put an effect on the garter shot and make it sepia to give it a stylish look.

There was also time to capture some casual shots before the wedding breakfast, the speeches and the cutting of the cake.

As with all RT Wedding’s it was an all day service right through to the first dance. If you would like us to photograph your wedding then please do get in touch.

Wedding Photography at Mulberry House, High Ongar, Essex

On Saturday I photographed a wedding at Mulberry House in High Ongar, Essex for Vivien and Mark. Light showers had been forecast for the day although I was still optimistic we would get some shots outdoors. In the shot below I managed to organise some swans to pose for the perfect bridge shot.

I arrived at the bride’s home and captured the accessories and some candid opportunities as well as some formal photographs of the bridal party.

I then moved on to the wedding venue, Mulberry House where I met up with the groom and the boys. Mulberry House is a fantistic wedding venue with beautiful grounds, a lovely house and also an excellent reception room.

I was able to photograph the wedding ceremony from the front and capture the expression through-out. After the ceremony the bride and groom went for a short drive in the Rolls Royce and I captured some casual shots whilst they were gone.

On their return they were greeted with some drinks and I let them have a few minutes with their guests which gave me an opportunity to capture more casual shots.

I then started the formal group shots which I managed to do very quickly thus not intruding on the guests for too long. During the group shots two little ducklings strolled by and I couldn’t resist, maybe they will book me for their wedding…

I also took an aerial group shot from an upstairs window and it gives you a better idea of the grounds surrounding Mulberry House which is stunning.

I then did the confetti shots and after giving the couple a bit more time with their guests, took them around for a romantic shoot utilising all the lovely areas around the grounds.

There are so many wonderful locations at Mulberry House.

It was then time for the receiving line, the meal and speeches, not forgetting the cutting of the cake.

The couple had a bit of time after their meal to relax before the evening party started.

I had an extremely enjoyable day photographing Vivien and Mark’s wedding. I finished off by capturing the first dance and also a couple of night shots. If you are getting married and you like my style of wedding photography then please get in touch as I would be delighted to assist.
