Christine & Mark Pre-Wedding Shoot at Chiseldon House

Christine and Mark's Big day takes place in May this year at Chiseldon House, Swindon. Their pre-wedding shoot took place at the venue so we could have a good look around plus have a catch up with the Bride and Groom to be! Chiseldon House is a beautiful country house hotel with beautiful grounds too. We're hoping for sunshine on the day so Mark and Christine can get married in the great out doors.

Bridal Shoot at Stanton House

In June we had organised a country themed style shoot  at Stanton House Hotel which was great fun for all involved. On the same day Monika the Hair & Make up stylist arranged to bring along an extra model and take advantage of the opportunity to use the beautiful grounds at the venue. We kept the style different from the themed shoot and went for a more dramatic Bride feel. 

 Debbie is a model and was brilliant in front of the camera and achieved the looks that Monika wanted. Debbie wore two different dresses from two different bridal boutiques - Veils of Berkeley  and Wedding Days of Cheltenham and her hair and Make up was changed to compliment each dress. Also to add even more prettiness to the shoot we used the gorgeous jewellery from Posy And Pearl.

Below is a selection of our favourites

Wedding of Mr & Mrs Hicks

On the 10th of May 2014 Alex and Anneka Said I do!

The day started with Anneka in her onesie having her hair and Make-up beautifully styled by Claire Guy Bridal Make-Up and Hair throughout the morning all was calm yet the weather was on our minds even though the sun was shining, now and again the rain poured. Anneka received a gift during bridal preparations off her soon to be hubby a Pandora bracelet, that's when the tears started as she opened the present and read the card off Alex. I stayed with Anneka all morning while Paul popped over to see Alex getting ready with his Grooms Men at his Mums and all was calm there as they chilled out in the living room. Back at Anneka's house the two vintage cars from Alex Cars arrived ....It was time to go!

Anneka and Alex was joined by family and friends to celebrate their wedding day, the ceremony took place at Swindon Registry Office and Reception followed at La Attica in Cirencester. Anneka and Alex have been together for a couple of years and are expecting a baby in the Autumn, Anneka already has a gorgeous  son so it was lovely to see them all becoming a family.The ceremony was beautiful with the glowing bride smiling throughout. During the ceremony I was aware of the horrible rain pouring outside, but while they signed the register the rain cleared which was perfect timing for photos. Formal photos were under way and a big thank you and well done to all the guests who moved as quickly as they could for photos, as we were very aware of the grey cloud above, but all was good we avoided the rain!. 

The speeches were brilliant a few tears and laughter flowed throughout,  Anneka's Step-Dad made a personal CD of his speech about her, Alex proudly read his speech and of course the Best Man Adam (Alex's brother) had the most laughs, especially when he rolled out his speech. Anneka and Alex cut the cake and also fed each other a piece and then it was time for the first dance, which Alex describes as "moving the wardrobe" haha! After the first dance we left them to party the night away.

It was and always is a pleasure to be chosen to photograph such a special time, we wish the new Mr and Mrs Hicks, Callum and bump all the happiness in the world and the best of luck for there new adventure as a family but also husband and wife. xXx
