Then a little shopping trip to

This wedding won the prize for the most colourful wedding of the year that we have attended. The Bridesmaids Rebecca, Suzannah, Dorelys and Kirsty each wore a different colour of the rainbow and looked stunning. The Bride Cheryl looked fabulous and carried flowers of the most amazing colours.

Daniel the Groom did not let the side down with his very stylish multi coloured striped shirt and smart suit. All the wedding party had made great efforts to follow the bright colour scheme of the day.

The service was held at the Church of St Michael the Archangel in Warfield Berkshire close to Royal Ascot racecourse and the reception was held nearby.

Cheryl and Daniel have just recently returned from nine months travelling around the world and this clearly influenced the colour scheme for their wedding. It was a joyous occasion and we were very thrilled to be a part of it.

Here is a small selection of photographs and the full gallery will be online Photographs are online here Please contact Cheryl & Daniel for the password.

Queens College Oxford was the special setting for the wedding of Lyndall and Peter. Everyone enjoyed the day with a ceremony in the stunning chapel, champagne in the Master’s garden and a meal in the elegant dining room. Here is a small selection of the images taken on the day.

Sunflowers as well as wall-to-wall sunshine were the order of the day when Laura and Daniel were married. The pretty church in the gorgeous setting of Little Marlow, followed by a short walk to the Queens Head made for a relaxed and enjoyable day, with bride and groom savouring every minute.

Lindsay and David chose a small family wedding at Garth Park registry office Bicester, with its lovely gardens and bandstand for the photographs. The ceremony was followed by a relaxing meal cooked and served by relatives in their garden. It was also one of those rare occasions when the sun shone after all the rainy days of summer.

The recent wedding of Stephanie and James began with a lunchtime military briefing over lunch in the pub. Andrew went to oversee the non-military bridal preparations whilst Helen braved the rain at the church. The weather was not allowed to spoil the day as the many coloured umbrellas just added to the jolly atmosphere. The sumptuous surroundings of Barton House were perfect for relaxing everyone, especially the bride and groom, who made themselves quite at home.

Notley Tythe Barn was the beautiful and relaxed setting chosen by Wendy and Nigel for their wedding day. Everyone agreed that the quiet surrounding countryside as well as the return of summer weather made the event feel extra special and enjoyable.

Vanessa and Tom’s wedding day was warm and sunny after many rainy days. The Chapel of Worcester College in Oxford was a stunning backdrop to the ceremony. The reception venue High Wall was no less stunning, with the beautiful gardens having far reaching views across Oxford and the evening fireworks probably being seen and heard in the city!

Carolyn and Daniel had a truly transatlantic wedding, having flown over from Georgia USA. The beautiful village of West Hanney had been flooded just before they arrived, but luckily dried out in time. It was a glorious day for this intimate and very traditional English wedding.

Today we have been on a visit to Queen’s College Oxford to meet up with one of our brides-to-be and have a grand tour of the college. Yes it was raining rather badly, but this did not detract from the splendour of the buildings. Hearing the plans for the wedding from the bride and meeting the college staff helps us to provide the best possible coverage of events. We often take a camera along on such visits, especially if it’s a venue we are not familiar with. Below are a few photographs from our visit.

We are often asked by prospective customers whether we have worked at a specific venue and our usual response is: we cover many locations across the UK, and with good planning and venue visits with the couple before the wedding, we can get the best out of the locations and give the bride and groom the beautiful photographs they desire.

Although every venue is unique, we hope that prospective clients can see that there are often similarities in the challenges for us to get the best shots.

Sam and Tom arranged a small, relaxed Wedding at the Oxfordshire Golf Club. Their plans were almost washed out by the torrential rain and flooding which closed the course for any would-be golfers. Happily we were still able to do the planned buggy trip over the course to the lake for some fun photos, with the flooded paths adding extra drama to the shots.

Sarah and Ben were married at their pretty local church at Worminghall, with a nearby field being the venue for their fantastic marquee.

The Glastonbury atmosphere was provided by the wellie boots hastily changed for dainty shoes outside church. Umbrellas were an essential accessory for the day, even when Mario arrived with his ice cream van at dessert course time. Despite the rain this was a very happy event and fun was had by all.

The two following photographs were taken by Peter of Andrew at St Michaels Manor -

I think they had a bit of time to spare during the meal !

Helen

Susan and Matthew chose the beautiful Parish Church in Chipping Norton and filled it with flowers for their wedding day. The showers did not dampen their spirit, and the guests all managed the walk up the very steep hill to the Crown and Cushion Hotel - Susan and Matt of course were transported in the Hotel Rolls-Royce.

Worminghall Church and Notley Tythe Barn

Clare and Luke chose the tiny but beautiful local church for their ceremony, and successfully dodged the rain showers at the important points. Notley Tythe Barn was the cosy setting for the celebrations.

Rachel and Stuart had a truly memorable wedding in Windsor. The stunning setting of the church of St John the Baptist, followed by a scenic walk by the castle and down to the river were just the start of the celebrations.

Once on the boat, the guests were treated to a mystery tour with the surprise reception venue at the end of it - their very own secluded island in the middle of the Thames.

I don’t think Patrick was too impressed with my camera work and started giving directions and suggesting poses and checking the results on the back of the camera.

Look new trainers

Our favourite of the session is this car in tunnel shot – closely supervised by Patrick as you can see.

Along with three other photographers we both worked with two glamorous models, Charlotte and Beth, who took time out from their college course to pose in the freezing surroundings of Chichester Cathedral cloisters!

It was great to bounce ideas and work alongside other photographers in such a fantastic location, coming away with a real excitement about our upcoming weddings over the next few months.

Here is a small selection of our photographs taken on the training day, the first three of which have received some of Barrie’s expert Photoshop techniques in order to add extra wow factor.
