I first met Liz & Rich at a wedding fair at The Mulberry House. Newly engaged they were very excited and so happy!  We had a good chat and look at my work and I was very pleased to hear from them next day asking to book me as their photographer. Their wedding venue was the gorgeous Leez Priory and both of them were very up for having a laugh and had some ideas of their own from research they had done on images.  It's always great to try new things and one that was completely new to me was the couple meeting pre the service - the groom blindfolded so he could not see his bride!  No talking allowed just a holding of hands.

Their brief for the day was relaxed and fun and to ensure their guests enjoyed themselves. With Scottish inputs to their theme (Bev's family is Scottish) the red worked beautifully with the lush green Essex countryside and the setting of The Room in the Rodings.One of the younger members of the bridal party alittle uncertain! along with the groom and his dad talking before the brides arrival.From these images I think it is fair to say there was as the couple wished enjoyment of their special day.When I first met them Bev expressed her dislike of having ...
