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.

Rachel & Rich's Summer Southend Barns Wedding
Rachel and Rich married early September as the outdoor bright summer tones were naturally and beautifully conceding to reveal warm autumnal tones.

Large peach peonies, seen in the bouquets and floral decor nestled amongst ivory and pale pink roses, established the day’s colour palette across the beautiful old barn venue, helping to create a soft, romantic and elegant ambience.
