The Lovely Wedding of Rose & Edward

Rose & Edward toast their marriage at Hampton Court House.

When Rose and Edward first discussed their Hampton Court House Wedding Photography with me, I could tell that it would be an unforgettable and fun-filled day.

“The photos are stunning, and nothing less than we expected. It just totally confirms that all the time spent searching for our photographer was worth it. We are so pleased.

It was actually very emotional looking through them!”

— Rose & Edward

Having lived around the corner from Hampton Court House for many years, I’d never even been inside the building.

It turns out it’s a lovely 18th-century building that’s right on the edge of Bushy Park, where I used to run almost every day.

As is often the case, I started my day shooting bridal prep with Rose and her bridesmaids at her parents home. There was already a great atmosphere and anticipation of the day to come.

As I left the house, the heavens opened, but luckily, as you’ll see in the images, the rain cleared for the ceremony and left a unique ambient light that seemed to shimmer outside the church and lit up the altar perfectly.

We moved from the church ceremony in Wimbledon and made the short drive over to Hampton Court House.

The drinks reception is where I catch many of my favourite images from each wedding.

As a Candid Wedding Photographer, I like to blend in with the guests, acting as a guest myself, and get these candid images that give an intimate glimpse into the wedding itself.

It was, in fact, during the drinks reception that Rose’s dad did his speech. Perched on the window sill, he projected his speech far and wide. Of course, not a single word was missed by the quiet room, and it was evident to see, by the emotion shown from Rose and Edward, how much the speech meant to them.

As I left, the evening light was fading, but the dancing and partying was certainly continuing.
