Early in the year I met up with Hannah & Jack to shoot their engagement photos ahead of their big day in May. And we lucked out so much with the weather it’s hard to believe it’s February in these photos!
We made the most of this rare winter sunshine and and headed to one of my favourite spots in Bedfordshire to shoot: Chicksands Woods. No matter the time of year it always provides great backdrops, and at this time of year the coppery winter ferns and pops of evergreen trees brought such a lovely colour palette to our shoot.
Hannah and Jack were all smiles as we strolled through the woodland with their adorable dog Olive. She loved exploring around during our shoot and I am sure Hannah and Jack would agree she is definitely stole the show in some of the shots!
I always find engagement shoots are never just about the photos - a big part of it is being able to get to know each other and the conversations that happen whilst walking around and discovering beautiful little pockets of light to shoot in.
Engagement shoots are something I offer as an optional add-on to all my wedding packages, and let me tell you, they're worth it! Whether you want to grab some photos for your wedding decor or simply get more comfortable in front of the camera, these shoots are a fab opportunity for us to get to know each other ahead of the big day.
Our shoot had me feeling even more excited for their wedding day in the Reading countryside in May and trust me, it did not disappoint! For more of their lovely faces, click here to read all about how their rustic wedding day unfolded later that year.
