Wedding Wednesday...

24 hours late on the blog but here is yesterday's Wedding Wednesday.

 A quick sneaky peak from Friday's wedding at Cooling Castle Barn. The couple's theme was springtime and yellow so I couldn't resist doing a few shots in the field opposite the venue which was full of beautiful yellow rapeseed.

Kerri-Anne and Robin's Cooling Castle wedding...

added by Claire on September 5, 2011 at 00:23

...A few weeks ago I had the priviledge of photographing Kerri-Anne and Robin's wedding at the beautfiul Cooling Castle Barn, one of the most popular wedding venue's in Kent!

The wedding day was a bit like 'Don't Tell the Bride' except the bride and the groom didn't have a clue about their day, except for what they were wearing and their first dance choice.
The day was full of surprises, from the flowers arriving in the morning to the menu which was revealed in the morning, which made it all very exciting.

The biggest surprise of all was the bride's father's speech. In the 13 years that I have been a photographer, I have witnessed lots of lovely speeches full of emotion but I have never witnessed a more brilliant and emotional speech than this one. I was chatting to Paul in the morning and he told me what he had planned and why. It was because he knew that the emotion may get the better of him so he decided to don a 'Sinatra'-esque trilby and sing his own lyrics to a Sinatra song! It was brilliant and lovely capturing the surprise on the bride and groom's faces.

After a day full of surprises for the bride and groom, arranged by Kerri-Anne's mum and sister, the bride and groom had their own little surprise for the first dance which included a dance routine - practised shortly before during the sunset photographs that we took.

All too quickly, as always, it was time for my day to come to an end and I left leaving the excellent band - thetzars.com - entertaining the guests.

One of my favourite moments from every wedding that I do is the first time that the brides father see's his daughter for the first time on her wedding day!

The boys...

Boys again...

Bride's arrival...

Beautiful bride....

Emma & Gordon Pre-Wedding Shoot...

added by Claire on March 1, 2010 at 21:56

On a cold, damp and grey Sunday afternoon I went out around North Greenwich with Emma and Gordon to shoot their pre-wedding photographs. We were going to go to Greenwich Park however Emma was a bit worried about her fab new shoes! Emma was a natural in the front of the camera and both of them needed very little direction...looking forward to the wedding!
The pre-wedding shoot gives us all an opportunity to work together before the wedding day which I find helps the bride and groom to relax during the wedding photographs on the day. The PWS  can take place locally or at the venue where the couple have chosen to get married.

Emma and Gordon are getting married at Chilston Park Hotel.
Looking forward to it!
