I first met bride Talia through the Bedford creative community, so when she enquired with me about her wedding photography I knew it was going to be a fantastic day!
Their wedding was held in Hampshire on family land, with the ceremony taking place in a little wooded clearing which used to be an old chalk mine. It made for the perfect location for their vows, with the trees surrounding them as they said their vows in front of guests sat on hay bales. It was nothing short of special, with a friend conducting their ceremony and lots of readings from their nearest and dearest making it truly personal to Talia and Andrew and their story as a couple.
They left their joyful ceremony to petal confetti thrown by friends and family, and we walked out of the clearing to continue the celebrations in a nearby field. The marquee they’d set up earlier in the week looked fantastic, with tables set up with luxurious charcuterie boards and fabric chandeliers hanging from the ceilings.
The field offered more than just a view, with hay bales, hula hoops, garden games and bouncy hoppers bringing a relaxed and fun energy to the day. Nearby, they had set up glamping tents for their guests to stay in which allowed everyone to party away into the night without worrying about a taxi home!
After dinner, emotional speeches flowed, with Talia’s speech always standing out in my memory. It’s not often you have brides doing speeches but I’m always a big fan of the girls having our say too!
Golden hour beckoned and we took a little walk with Talia & Andrew to capture them in the nearby fields as the sun set. You spend a surprisingly small amount of time alone together on your wedding day and I always love to give a couple a chance to have time out and have a catch up with each other in the wedding madness!
As the day dimmed, the marquee lit up, with music and dance marking the perfect end to Talia and Andrew's memorable day. As always we captured everyone pulling shapes on the dancefloor and we left them all to party the night away!
Thank you Talia & Andrew for bringing us along for the party. We had a great time!
“You are amazing. I can’t quite believe how many millions of
beautiful photos there are. We absolutely blooming love them all.”
