Peter and Monali

Yesterday we travelled to Virginia Water to photograph the wedding of Peter and Monali which turned out to be just as special as we had expected thanks in no small part to the wonderful weather we enjoyed.

We started our day at the Sacred Heart Church in Sunnydale and then travelled to The Wentworth Club in style thanks to Ashley wedding cars.

We were greeted at Wenworth Club by Glen Grant the toastmaster who helped us to get the very best from the wonderful Wentworth club and its superb grounds as well as keeping me supplied with hor'deurves which was much appreciated.

Peter and Monali were fantastic to work with and were surrounded by lovelly family and friends who helped make the day a memorable one.

Sunday

Paul and Nikki

Yesterday we photographed the wedding of Paul and Nikki at
Carey's Manor. Carey's Manor is a lovely hotel in the heart of the New Forest and just perfect for A summer wedding and I am pleased to say that the sun shone all day for Paul and Nikki.

We started the day with a few prep shots at Careys manor and then onto the ceremony and then into the garden for some photos, We then had speeches and the breakfast and then the highlight of Paul's day the First Dance !!, All day Paul had been talking about his dancing skills but we think it was just a bluff as the dancing was brilliant

We both had a great day and wish them the best of luck with there suprise honeymoon, Wherever it is Nikki !

Saturday

John and Laura

Yesterday we revisited St Edmunds Chuch in Southampton to photograph the wedding of John and Laura.

When Laura started to plan her wedding a couple of years ago she was sure that she wanted 2 things, Us to photograph it and Jimmy Choo shoe's :) Ok maybe it was just the Jimmies then !!

Well I am pleased to say that Laura looked fantastic in her shoes and Jonathon was blown away when he saw her as were the guests when she arrived at St Edmunds.

It was not the best start for a wedding day, in fact it was torrential rain when Laura arrived but shortly after leaving St edmunds for the reception at New Place in Shirrell Heath it started to clear a little, in fact we did all our formals outside and then enjoyed some breif sun for our portraiture so all in all it turned out to be fantastic.

John's Dad was unfortunatly taken home poorly so we both wish him very well indeed.

John spent the whole day with a great big grin on his face which I bet is still there now and rightly so.

The staff at New Place were fantastic, not only did they look after Johns Dad but also the guests and Sue & I , We are looking forward to our return there real soon.

Stuart and Kerry

Sunday was our wedding anniversary and we spent it photographing the wedding of Stuart and Kerry which took place at the The Alverbank Hotel in Gosport which is a great place overlooking the beach and Stokes Bay.

We had a brilliant day despite the local park being closed because of overnight storms.

We took Stuart and Kerry down to the Beach for a couple of pictures which turned out great.

I would like to say that we celebrated with a glass or two of bubbly when we got home but just like last year we were to tired and after backing up we went to bed
