Melissa & Gareth's Upwaltham Barns Autumn Wedding
On a fresh August day in Bournemouth, I had the pleasure of photographing a lovely couple who were engaged to be married in the following October. Bride-to-be Melissa was blown away by a doting Gareth, who had led her up to the top of a magnificent hill boasting a backdrop of breathtaking views. Whilst on bended knee, he captured her heart with his thoughtful and romantic proposal. The rest, as they say, is history! Having later booked me to be their wedding photographer, it was decided that an engagement shoot was an ideal opportunity for a little pre-wedding photographic warm-up. The couple accompanied me up to the top of the very same hill where the engagement had taken place and there we stood and marvelled at the views. They reminisced as they unwrapped the heartwarming proposal story and, like Melissa, I too was blown away (but this time literally)! - The wind on that hill was so ridiculously strong we did all we could to not get blasted back down onto the beach! Yet somehow we did end up there, a touch windswept but still in one piece, and there I was able to capture Melissa and Gareth, standing apart, individually strong, yet together against the bold yet dreamy melting amber sky.
Val & Martin's Autumnal October Wedding
It was wonderful to see some familiar faces when I arrived at the stunning Park House Hotel & Spa where Val and Martin were due to be tying the knot on that autumnal October Saturday. Having already photographed Martin’s son’s wedding previously, (see their blog from October 2016, Jo and James - A Tale of Two in Textures), it was a true honour to be invited back as the chosen wedding photographer for this fun-loving family. I found it heartwarming to see family members coming together second time around, but this time, with the tables turned as the second generation celebrated the commitment and love of the first. Relaxed and happy vibes emanated amongst guests, most of whom were also staying under the same roof at this luxurious West Sussex country hotel.
