Hannah and Russell’s wedding is at Oakley Hall at Easter next year. Last week, we met at Oakley Hall one afternoon for their engagement photo shoot. The buildings and grounds at Oakley Hall offer some lovely backgrounds for wedding photographs and I’m looking forward to going back for the big day next year. Here are a few of my favourites from Hannah and Russell’s engagement shoot.

Lynda is a professional photographer and a friend, so I was delighted and honoured that she and Peter asked me to be their wedding photographer. Their wedding is in Reading in December and we met up at Caversham House Gardens, a lovely little park next to the Thames, for a pre-wedding shoot. As a photographer herself, Lynda is well aware of the importance of shooting at the right time for the best light and our plans worked out well as we were treated to some gorgeous late afternoon sun and ideal conditions. We had a fun shoot followed by a nice cup of coffee and a chat about the main event, which I’m looking forward to in a couple of months time. Here are a few of my favourite shots.

Dips and James are getting married in November at Gaynes Park Barns in Essex. Sally and I met them recently for a look around the stunning venue and then drove over to Weald Country Park for their engagement photo shoot, before having a  lovely lunch at a nearby pub. Here are a few of my favourite shots.
