Pre-wedding Portraits: Lisa & Mike at Chilworth Manor
Lisa & Mike are getting married at Chilworth Manor in Southampton next month. It is a lovely venue with manicured lawns and stepped terrace, but as I parked the car I spotted some wilder ground which I thought would be a great setting for some photos. We probably won’t be able to roam into the long grass on the wedding day, but I think this was a great little spot for some pre-wedding portraits. Almost had some lovely late afternoon sunlight until the clouds came in too. Lets hope for an indian summer (but not the sort with Monsoons)
Rebecca & Steven’s Hampshire Wedding at Esseborne Manor
Rebecca & Steven (or do I call him Sam, I got completely confused!?) got married at St Mary’s church in Andover followed by a reception at Esseborne Manor. Rebecca looked like a fairy tale princess in an amazing dress of lace, ruffles, embroidery and brooches, in a gorgeous grey- blue colour. She had a whole troop of glamourous bridesmaids in black evening dresses, and pretty flower girls in white. The boys complimented the look, in black tuxedos.
It was only fitting Cinderella had a carriage, which her parents surprised her with as she left for the church. They married at St Mary’s in Andover, a church where many generations of Rebecca’s family have been wed, and were joined by family and friends from all over the country. After the ceremony they left for the reception at Esseborne in the horse and carriage. We planned to stop on the way for some photos in the fields which surround the country hotel. I love a good cornfield, and luckily we found one still accessible in a huge wedding dress. We did some romantic photos and then some waving-your-arms-around-like-an-idiot photos (their idea) 
Then off to Esseborne, which was decorated in black and white, with tables named for favourite films. Its a lovely venue out in the Hampshire countryside, and everyone enjoyed drinks out on the lawn before sitting down to eat. During the speeches the families had made a slideshow of old photos of the happy couple, from childhood to their holidays together. I hope this set of wedding photos adds another set of memories- Congratulations Mr & Mrs Sandbach!
Here’s a selection of highlights from the day. The full gallery is online for friends and family here.

Portsmouth Wedding Photography: Lauren & Jason’s Wedding
Lauren & Jason got married at the very grand St Mary’s church in Portsmouth in July. They held their reception at Cosham Masonic Hall, which was beautifully decorated with candlesticks and pink and sage details. Lauren just did not stop smiling all day, which is great for a photographer as every time I turned around to take her photo she was laughing and smiling. It was a lovely day with a great bunch of people. Congratulations Lauren & Jason!

Sneak peek: Lucy and Shay’s Salisbury Wedding
I like to blog just one sneak preview from each wedding before I get down to editing and it couldn’t be anything but this one really. Any bride that does somersaults in her wedding dress on a wet bouncy castle needs some recognition.
Lucy and Shay, Congratulations!
