Beautiful Engagement Photo Session at SunRise, Chiswick, West London

I met Melissa for the first time at The West London Wedding Show this October. Melissa is one of those people you meet and instantly connect.  After a small chat you already think you’ve known her for ages.  She is absolutely beautiful and her amazing and warm personality shines through! 

We agreed with Melissa and her fiancé Sheldon to meet for the engagement photo session in a few weeks’ time, and for the location Mel chose Chiswick House & Gardens. Have you been there?! It’s such a beautiful park located at the very heart of West London. I could not believe I hadn’t been there before! 

As it was the school half-term I knew it will be packed with people later on, so I suggested (and I still cannot believe I did, as I love mornings after 10 am), to meet Melissa and Sheldon at 8 am for a sunrise engagement session! 

What a beautiful morning it turned out -  the light was perfect, the sun casted beautifully against a pastel coloured sky, stunning garden with colourful autumn leaves in a background and only a few joggers and doggers in the park!

We spent the golden morning hours in the garden and the couple was fabulous and fun to capture in stunning pictures  - have a look yourself!

 Melissa and Sheldon, you're absolutely adorable couple! Really.

Hertfordshire & Buckinghamshire wedding | Rebecca & Aaron | The Pinkie Promise

It was one of those rare hot Great British Summer days when Rebecca and Aaron married at Kings Langley Methodist Church and, surrounded by their friends and family, promised to love each other for all eternity.

The wedding celebration was continued at The Bull Hotel at Gerrard’s Cross. Rebecca is the most pink-loving person I have ever met, and it was obvious that the wedding theme was pink.

I love wedding speeches, they are always so informative and you find out more than you expected… and this wedding was no exception, but when Aaron made his speech and his voice broke with the outpouring of his deepest love, and his and Rebecca’s dedication to each other and their commitment to building their lives together…!  When all the guests whispered ‘Aaahs..’, my eyes filled with tears so that I could hardly see through the camera viewfinder, and each and every cell of my body prayed for their happiness ever-after, because they are meant for each other! And instantly you know that it is the most romantic thing in the world – to show your love and commitment in front of the most important people in your life! It illustrates the true meaning of a wedding!

Even the table decorations celebrated their life together and their commitment for the years to come - instead of table numbers, each table had a themed collage of happy moments together, a collage of romantic love as they navigated their life together.

Thank you for allowing me to document your first day as husband and wife. It was an honour and I look forward to what the future has for you both. Much love and best wishes for your happy-ever-after...

Many thanks to the amazing team who made this wedding come to life... 

Chess River Valley, Hertfordshire Engagement: Rebecca & Aaron

I was honoured to join Rebecca and Aron in Chess Valley, Chorleywood, Hertfordshire for their engagement photos and I couldn't have been happier working with such an amazing couple! And spending the day in most picturesque British country side for their engagement session was the perfect start to what’s coming very soon - their perfect wedding day! Rebecca and Aron are marrying in July and I couldn't be more excited to work with them again soon.

One of my favourite things about Rebecca and Aaron is their readiness and commitment to create and capture those memories of lifetime in photographs to cherish for a lifetime.

I felt in love with this gorgeous couple and the Chess Valley’s amazing views. 

I returned there already twice to enjoy the beauty of British country side to share with my family… This is the type of place that makes a photographers fall in love. Each and every step provides the photo opportunity and the perfect weather was just a cherry on the top.
