Rachel & Tom

Aaaand we’re back!

What a pleasure to be shooting weddings again after this long postponement. I kicked my season off with the lovely Rachel & Tom. It was genuinely such a joy to be surrounded by celebration – a very safe, lateral flow tested celebration may I add!

I got to enjoy the beautiful backdrop of Tall John’s House once again. The sun was shining and the outdoor ceremony couldn’t have been on a better day. Although I did feel sorry for the boys in tweed … it’s the price you pay for looking dapper I suppose!

One of my favourite moments of the day was when I was arranging the girls for a photo outside the door of the main house. I said to get into ‘Goose Formation’ … y’know, the V formation when they fly … but I just thoroughly baffled them! I may not use that expression anymore!! (Is that a saying or did I just make that up?!)

Tom not only gained a wife but two beautiful little daughters on this wedding day! I have to admit, I didn’t realise this until later on in the day because there was so much love and care amongst them all. I love the photo below where the youngest takes hold of Tom’s hand because things were getting emotional during the speeches! What a gorgeous little family this is!

Thank you to Tom and Rachel for having me as your photographer. You gave me a wonderful day to capture! I wish you every happiness together!

 

Denise & Peter

It was an absolute privilege to spend a few hours with Denise and Peter this week.  This lovely couple were getting married after 20 years of being together!

Very spur of the moment, they decided to get married at the Offas Dyke Center in Knighton all by themselves!  With some encouragement from family members however, they asked me to capture this special moment.

I took some photographs around the beautiful treehouse they were staying in beforehand at Squirrels Nest and my goodness, it was stunning!

This was the most low-key wedding I have shot, but in no way was it any less in love and meaning.  It was wonderful to see the strength of feeling and conviction between Denise and Peter after two decades together … and may it continue for many more!
