Nick and Debra choose the stunning Moor Park Mansion in Hertfordshire for their wedding. I absolutely love the architecture in this building, especially the staircase. I was quite excited to see the Christmas tree, which I knew would be quite a statement.

We’d photographed there before and so I was pleased when Nick and Debra’s friends recommended us and we could photograph their Christmas wedding there. The staff at Moor Park Mansion go out of their way to make the day special for the couple, the toast master really gets the crowds going, the food is excellent and they can even organise a firework display for some added evening entertainment.

In the morning I photographed the preparations at Debra’s parents house. She was quite relaxed and everyone was very friendly. Debra’s beautiful dress was a silver colour, the bridesmaids had dark blue dresses.

Martyn met Nick at the venue. I photographed the service from the front, capturing the nervousness and excitement, while Martyn captured the grandeur of the room from the back.

As it was cold and the snow had almost melted we did all the photographs indoors. Guests threw handmade snowflakes over the couple for the confetti!

We made use of the staircase and the balcony for the photographs of Nick and Debra, working without flash to capture the atmosphere.

The toastmaster got all the crowds to cheer the couple in, although they were a lively bunch and didn’t need too much encouragement! I love the photographs during the speeches, even the toastmaster has his head in his hands at one point during the bestmans speech. I can’t reveal what the bestman said but it takes a lot to shock us…

I photographed the first dance from the balcony, while Martyn captured all the emotion from the ground. As Nick picked Debra up and twirled her round, the train on her wedding dress looked amazing and made for some wonderful photographs.

As we finished, the DJ was playing some great tunes and we left on a real high.

The photos look great, some great action shots, especially during the speeches.

Offley Place is a wonderful setting for an intimate wedding. Jenny and Jack were married outside in the rose garden and the wedding breakfast was in the garden room, with beautiful views.

Jenny is a fashion designer, so there was a stunning wedding dress and details to photograph. We were able to do some more ‘fashion’ type poses with them, although Jack was a little self conscious about being photographed at first, he soon relaxed into the photography…

I love them all, thank you! We will recommend you and Martyn as photographers, Jennie and I have already been to two other weddings after ours and their photo’s do not even come close to the standard and quality of ours.

Jenny did her own make-up

I love this one Jenny looks really excited and the wedding dress is in the background for great story telling

Martyn was following the groom and captured this one of the groom, best man and ushers synchronise their watches

it took 3 people to lace Jenny in!

I like this one of the mother of the bride putting Jenny’s bracelet on

a cheeky moment during the service, for me its these moments that reportage photography is all about

a lovely moment as the couple kiss on the walk back to the house

confetti looks great against a dark background

we are often asked if we do formal groups, yes we do and quite well I think!

Luisa and Jonathan held their wedding in Fanhams Hall Hotel, Hertfordshire. We had never photographed there before but the architecture is stunning, very fitting for the fairytale wedding Luisa had dreamt of.

We couldn’t go outside due to rain but the interior is beautiful, ideal for a winter wedding.

The album looks fabulous

Martyn was following the groom, a keen photographer himself

I love this photograph as it’s not posed, it’s the moment after they were just married

Another recommendation from Katie and Charlie. A beautiful wedding with a marquee reception. It was really difficult choosing my favourites. I haven’t included all the photographs we captured..as there are 500 in total!

A stylish and informal wedding, the venue had funky lighting. Jade wore an unusual Grecian wedding dress that suited her perfectly. They were recommended by Katie and Charlie, the graphic designers, whose wedding we photographed last July.

Hi Julie – got the photos…they are fantastic!

We really love them – and do think they capture the day perfectly…

we chose you guys having seen kate and charlie’s and we totally made the right decision!!
