Wedding Photography at Stoke Place

I was very pleased to be invited back to Stoke Place in Stoke Poges near Slough for my second wedding there of the season. This wedding for Jenny and Darren took place quite late on a Sunday afternoon in November. You may recall my last wedding at Stoke Place in back in August and Jenny contacted me after reading my blog article. Although I did take some pre-wedding shots outside the majority of work was taken indoors as it was dark by 4.30pm. This time Steve came and assisted me as the 2nd photographer and we certainly made a great team on the day.

Stoke Place is an ideal wedding venue for a winter wedding and has many indoor locations which suit an indoor wedding. Having also photographed a wedding back in the summer mainly utilising the outsides and the grounds, this wedding gave me an opportunity to utilise more of the interior.

All of the photography took place at the venue itself and the rain cleared for a few minutes enabling a quick set of shots with the groom and the boys.

The ceremony started at around 4pm and the ambient lighting really did add to the warm, cosy atmosphere of the wedding.

We had just enough time and light to take one aerial group shot of all the wedding guests before moving back inside to continue the group shots.

We had some fun taking the group photographs and everyone seemed happy to participate which is always good.

We couldn’t miss out the traditional confetti shots and also made use of some of the other locations inside the venue for a few romantic shots.

I always like to utilise the stairs whenever possible and with Steve assisting we also managed to take some of the camera flash shots outside, capturing natural ambient light from the background and using some side flash to lighten the couple.

We then moved on to the greeting line and my shooting of the grooms shoulder I managed to capture some great expressions as the guests entered the main hall for the wedding breakfast.

After capturing the speeches it was time to cut the cake and on to the first dance.

As part of my service I also offer evening portraits using my mobile studio set up. The couple and their guests took full advantage of this after all, it all adds to the couples wedding photographs.

I really enjoyed photographing Jenny and Darren’s wedding day and once again it was good working alongside Steve. If you would like me to photograph your wedding or would like a dual photographer service then please give me call.

Wedding Photography at Combe Bank School

Yesterday I was lucky enough to photograph another wedding with Steve, an associate photographer at a venue I hadn’t been to before. Cheryl and Luke’s wedding took place at Combe Bank School near Sevenoaks in Kent. As a wedding photographer for Herts and Essex I was keen to venture a bit further and photograph this wedding in Kent.

A Gaynes Park Wedding in November

As my wedding season is now almost over I took the opportunity to work alongside my friend Steve, on one of his wedding bookings at Gaynes Park, Coopersale, in Essex. As a wedding photographer in Essex and Hertfordshire, and not having photographed there before, I was very keen to take on the challenge. The wedding was for Elizabeth and Franco and my brief was to capture a more casual side to their wedding.

From Wanstead to Chigwell

On Saturday I photographed the last of my Summer weddings for Charlotte and Peter and it took place at Christchurch, Wanstead and then on to Metropolitan Police Chigwell Sports Club in Chigwell. It was quite a cold and windy day, but luckily managed to stay dry until the evening.

As wedding photographer in Herts and Essex, I made sure that I arrived at the bride’s leaving location nice and early, and everyone was calm, friendly and relaxed, including the bride! I captured some of the details and accessories before taking Charlotte and her bridesmaids outside for some formal shots. CLICK FOR FULL STORY OF "From Wanstead to Chigwell…"

The hidden delights of Magdalen Laver

Last Saturday I was asked by a good friend and fellow professional photographer Steve if I could be the 2nd photographer for a wedding he was shooting. Ofcourse I jumped at the challenge as we have worked alongside each other on a number of weddings and we both have a great rapport with everbody on the day. This wedding was for Kelly and David and took place at St. Mary Magdalen Church, Magdalen Laver, near Ongar in Essex.

Wedding at the Grange

After my trip away photographing a wedding in Sorrento, I was quickly back to photographing another wedding, this time in Middlesex. As a wedding photographer in Hertfordshire I am always happy to travel out of area for my commissions and this one for Janice and Steven started at the Premier Inn, Wembley Park.
