Tanya and Nick – beautiful beach huts couples shoot

These two aren’t engaged, but I reckon they should be after seeing them together on their couples shoot! I took a trip to Wells-next-to-the-sea in Norwich to take some couple photos of Tanya and Nick with their favourite beach huts. The beach there is so vast and so beautiful, it was the perfect location. The beach huts really are spectacular too, all in different pastel shades and with wooden stairs leading up to their decks. Wells also has some cute little sand dunes which I had to take advantage of, and I even made the pair dip their feet in the sea too (sorry Nick!)!!! I absolutely loved every second of this shoot and I hope to visit Wells again soon!

Jade and Paul – a woodland engagement

Jade worked in HR with me in my day job, and approached me the week before she left in search of a wedding photographer! After talking wedding plans and seeing some of my work, she went ahead and booked me for their May wedding! So, at the end of March, we met for their engagement shoot. Jade and Paul had met while camping and therefore wanted to bring back some of those memories during a woodland stroll around Ashridge Park, Berkhamstead. We even managed to find a little tent made of sticks which the couple loved! After initially being a little nervous, these two blossomed in front of the camera and I got some beautiful shots of them. I simply cannot wait for their wedding on 3rd May!

Jenny and Steve – a Sunrise Engagement Shoot

Terri from Summer Lily Studio invited me along to a sunrise engagement shoot back in January.  I had never shot at this time of day before so I thought it would be a great opportunity to practice. Plus I second shot at their wedding on the 22nd February, so I got to meet this lovely couple beforehand, which is always a good thing, that way they will be more comfortable with me on their big day! Jenny and Steve are an incredibly lovely and fun-loving couple, they were up for anything! We took the photos down on Harpenden Common, the village where they will be wed! I love the way the photos have come out, with the orange rays of light seeping in at the corners of the photos. I would love to try more sunrise shoots in future!

Emma and Jamie

Emma and Jamie were married in 2012 by the seaside before setting off on a long 3 month honeymoon travelling around the world together! Now we go back to where it all started, the beautiful manor house of Luton Hoo, where Jamie proposed to Emma over afternoon tea. I took them back there for an anniversary shoot last month, to reminisce and have fun in the place that changed their lives for the better. I brought a few fun props along and we found some beautiful seasonal locations that made for some stunning photos.

Charlotte and Callum

Last year, I took my best friend Charlotte and her boyfriend Callum punting on the River Cam. The weather was not on our side for our goal of punting down the river!  But luckily for me, these two didn’t let the weather destroy our plans, and they even braved taking their jackets off for the photos! All we needed was a willing punter (my boyfriend) and an umbrella and we were off! The scenery was beautiful and I managed to get some lovely candid shots of my couple. The rain did nothing to dampen their spirits!
Since taking these photos, Callum and Charlotte are now engaged and planning their wedding for next February. I can’t wait to spend their special day with them!
