What a fantastic way to spend a Bank Holiday morning this was. Sergei and Jenn are getting married at the wonderful Warren House on Sunday. Now, normally, I tend to do engagement sessions a little more than 6 days before the ceremony, but this was a relatively late booking (just last week in fact) and this was the first day I have had free since I got back from France.

Watching the weather all week I wasn’t sure what to expect, but as it turned out, the sun was shining and the weather was beautiful. We took advantage of the fact it was a Bank Holiday and headed into the City of London as we knew it would be nice and quiet. Other than the fact it took me 20 minutes to find somewhere to get a coffee (it really does shut down around there), it was a brilliant. As with all couples it took a little while for Sergei and Jenn to relax, but this is a large part of the aim of the session, and once warmed up they were great fun.

I am really looking forward to this wedding. Besides being a really wonderful couple, this will be my first Russian Orthodox ceremony which looks absolutely fantastic. Can’t wait for Sunday! In the meantime, enjoy a couple of my favourites from the morning:

Last weekend saw me fly back from my holiday in France to shoot the wedding of Matt and Michelle at the stunning country house location of Burrows Lea in Shere, nr Guildford. Will take me a while to process these as I am away on holiday at the moment, but just a couple of sneak peaks…

As you may have guessed from the sneak peek post, this wedding was a little further away from home than usual for me! In the heart of the Lake District this was always going to be a special wedding, add in some stunning summer sunshine, an awesome group of people and it was a huge amount of fun.

Early morning saw me meeting up with Lou and the girls at her Mums house in Penrith whilst they got ready. I don’t think I have ever seen anyone as cool, calm and collected on their wedding day morning as Lou! Was a fantastic chilled atmosphere. From there it was a short stroll down the road to the beautiful Christ Church for the ceremony with one of the nicest priests I think I have met.

Everyone then jumped on a coach as we headed to the gorgeous Inn on the Lake on the shores of Lake Ullswater. You’d have one heck of a job trying to find a more idyllic setting for a wedding reception and it served as the perfect venue for the end of a wonderful day with a wonderful couple.

What an utterly fantastic day with one of the nicest couples you could hope to meet. I met up with Sandra for the bridal preps at the Mary Ann Weeks salon in Walton. A really lovely salon and Sandra and the girls had the upstairs to themselves. From there it was on to Sandras house for the bridal prep and a quick coffee before heading off to meet up with Matt and the ushers at the beautiful St Pauls Church in East Molsey.

The reception took place at Warren House in Kingston. A gorgeous venue tucked away on the Coombe Estate, the gardens are stunning with the most incredible Wisteria I have ever seen in my life (as you will see in the photos). With the late afternoon/evening sun it was simply breathtaking.

It was a privilege to have been part of such a wonderful day and I wish Matt and Sandra all the best in their future life together (and a speedy recovery for the ankle Sandra broke on the Honeymoon….)
