Saturday's Wedding at 45 Millbank

On Saturday I was up in London photographing the beautiful wedding of Diane and James at 45 Millbank. A fabulous venue next to the Tate with beautiful rooms and views, with some of the best service I have seen.

Diane got ready just down the road at The Mint Hotel and then walked to the venue for final preparations.  Dominique Blumenthal of The Perfect Wedding Company ensured that everything ran like clockwork which allowed the day to unfold in a wonderfully relaxed style. With their love of food the couple had a very long wedding breakfast with speeches intermingled with the six courses. They also had a photo booth and vodka luge for the evening festivites.

For their preview picture I chose this shot from the ceremony. Not least because the first kiss is always a great moment but the flash of the guests camera brings the whole of the congregation into the moment and highlights the couple perfectly.

Friday's wedding at Burford Bridge Hotel

Beautiful sunshine graced the wedding celebration of Rebecca and James on Friday.  Their wedding was held at St Nicholas Church in Great Bookham with a reception at the Mecure Burford Bridge Hotel in Dorking.  Rebecca was one of the most animated brides I have ever seen and great fun to photograph. And when coupled with James made for a very special couple indeed and that made this such a fun wedding celebration to photograph.

For their preview picture I chose one from the getting ready as I love the reflection of the Mum in the mirror admiring the back of the dress and the bridesmaid on the stairs reflecting the excitement on Rebecca's face.

Saturday's Wedding at Easthampstead Park

The gorgeous Helen and Rogerio were married at the beautiful Easthampstead Park in Hampshire on a lovely warm Septembers day. This was a coming together of two cultures with Rogerio being Brazilian and Helen English. The wedding had a lovely atmosphere of excitement and fun and both English and Brazilian influences with all the decor and special touches.

For the preview shot I picked one of Helen getting ready. Her dress is hanging from the chandelier and appears to dwarf our bride who is putting her earrings in. I like this picture because it represents the feelings of a girl as the moment closes in and the scale of the day ahead can be felt.

Sunday's Wedding at Barnett Hill

On Sunday I spent the day at one of my favourite venues, Barnett Hill, on the edge of Guildford.  A beautiful place to hold the beautiful wedding of Georgina and Russell.  Although it rained in the morning the skies had cleared after the ceremony and everyone was able to enjoy the surroundings.  The interior of Barnett Hill also has some beautiful features so really the weather is never an issue anyway.

This was a wedding with a really relaxed atmosphere, some lovely personal touches and a couple very much in love.  Perfect.

For their preview picture I chose one of the gorgeous Georgina in the hallway.
