Katharine and Martin – wedding photography at St Andrews, Sonning with a marquee reception in Berkshire 25 Aug 2011 No Comments
Katharine and Martins fun wedding. I particularly loved the colourful flowers, the bunting in the marquee with the wooden numbers to identify the tables; not too mention the photo booth that Martin made. The booth made for some great shots, photographing a bride and groom with fake moustache and googly eyes was a first for me but we had a lot of fun.
I couldn’t praise Confetti Shots more highly. You and Martyn were everything we could hope for from our wedding photographers: helpful, discreet, quick with the formals, relaxing everyone through the set-ups. You covered so much, and so many people, from so many angles, and made us all look so fabulous! There’s hardly anyone you didn’t get in one way or another through the day. Most importantly, the photographs themselves are just what we were hoping for in terms of style and quality. Looking through them all together, we just get an overwhelming sense of how fun the day was: everyone’s smiling and having a good time, which is exactly how we want to remember the day ourselves. My mother is particularly impressed with how she didn’t notice you taking half the shots of her that she’s seen and likes. We’ll definitely be recommending you to any other couples we know are getting married, and only wish we had another opportunity to use you (although I guess that wouldn’t be a good thing in view of your specialism!)
Mia and Mark – wedding photography at St Marys the Virgin Church and L’Ortolan Restaurant in Reading, Berkshire 15 Aug 2011 No Comments
Mia and Mark booked fairly last minute, after they weren’t happy with their engagement photographs from their original photographs! Mia doesn’t think she is photogenic but I think she made a pretty bride.
It was an honour to photograph such an intimate wedding, where I was treated like part of the family. I even stayed for the meal at L’Ortolan, memories of a wonderful day.
THANK YOU!!!
We love all the photos so much- they are just so precious! We drove back to Northamtonshire this weekend and got to show them to my mum. She cried all over again just looking at them!
Getting you to do our photographs is the best decision we ever made.
Helen and Trevor – wedding photography at Fleet Baptist Church and North Hampshire Golf Club No Comments
It’s been a busy July with 6 weddings and a surprise 70th party, phew. For now I’m just going to post my favourite photographs from Helen and Trevors wedding, sorry about the lack of words, I hope the photogaphs speak for me.
The photos look lovely. We are really pleased with them!
Isabel and James – wedding photography at Ardington House, Oxfordshire 29 Jul 2011 No Comments
Isabel and James got married at the beautiful Ardington House. Isabel stunning dress is Pronovia’s, it was the only dress she tried on.
The couple live in Singapore but fell in love with the grounds at Ardington House, with its countless opportunities for wedding photography. Isabels dream was to get married outside under the temple. It was raining in the morning but amazingly it held off as soon as Isabel made her way to get married, right up until the speeches.
What I love about weddings is the fact that they all have their individual touches, the best man composed a funny song for the speeches, we captured some great reactions from the guests.
So the CD arrived and i can barely get myself to work in the office….i cant stop looking at them, they are incredible. THANK YOU!
We couldnt have wished for a nicer and more professinal team to work with. You were so discreet i barely noticed you around and yet we have pictures of everything. We also enjoyed both of you and your easy going way which made us feel very comfortable.
I have friends marrying next summer and will tell them to get in touch with you. My brother is very upset with the pics of his weddings after he has seen ours

Lai and Les – wedding photography at Knowlton Court, Kent 18 Jul 2011 No Comments
Lai and Les got married in the enchanting and old worldly Knowlton Court, near Canterbury in Kent. Their wedding service took place in front of a tapestry and two knights in amour! Then the couple walked down the aisle to bubbles.
Lai organised the wedding from Hong Kong! We were recommended by a family member and I only spoke on the phone to Lai before the wedding. On the day she was relaxed despite the English weather. Luckily the rain held off long enough, so we could get some classic wedding photographs in the grounds. Knowlton Court has some stunning grounds. These are now Lai’s favourite images from the day.
Here are a few of my personal favourites. Yet again, I couldn’t narrow it down to less than 50 images…
Everyone has been telling me how fantastic the photos are! Les and I both thank you and Martyn for everything. We are really pleased with the photos and will for sure pass your details to future brides/grooms!
Sara and Martin – wedding photography at Islington Town Hall and Coq d’Argent, London 17 Jul 2011 No Comments
Sara and Martins stylish London wedding, that I’m now calling the ‘Sex and the City’ wedding because of the dress, styling and the Jimmy Choos! I loved the blue hydrangea bouquets too.
The service was at Islington Town Hall, then all the guests hopped on a bus to Coq d’Argent, where we were spoilt for choice for locations for the wedding photography, every direction we turned made a great photograph. It was a hot day and everyone enjoyed the roof terrace with fantastic views over the city.
After some heart felt speeches, guests danced the night away outside on the terrace to a Beatles tribute band. A perfect ending to an amazing day.
Laura and James – wedding photography at Monks Barn, Hurley, Berkshire 19 Jun 2011 1 Comment
I started the photography of Laura and James day at Laura’s parents home, while Martyn followed the groom. There were lots of thoughtful touches that Laura had made, notes for the parents and bridesmaids, plus a mother of the bride survival kit!
Laura had a lovely country theme based on daisy’s, even the bouquet had daisy’s, which is something I hadn’t seen before. The bouquet was hand tied with lace from Laura’s dress.
Laura seemed more excited than nervous. The couple got married at St. Mary’s Church in Hurley. It was a relaxed and emotional service. We were grateful to be allowed to discreetly photograph the ceremony from the front and back.
After confetti and hugs, the guests walked across the road to Monks barn. Laura and James, with help from family and friends spent 3 days decorating it with daisy’s, wellies, bunting and all things country. The guests were entertained by a slideshow, giant jenga and croquet.
The rustic theme was complementing by favours of homemade jam by James and food from Complete Catering. The cake was made by James little brother in-between finishing his exams!
The party started after Laura and James did an impressive choreographed routine. For me their wedding had the real wow factor and was full of personal touches, which really made it special.
Laura and James suppliers were:
The dress was from Stunning Bride in High Wycombe and it was a Benjamin Roberts Blue by Enzoni design. It found it when shopping with Laura’s Mum, Mum in Law and Granny amid many tears!
The florist was Eden Floral Design in Marlow which is owned by a super lady called Anna who had so many original ideas for their rustic, natural theme.
The car is a Sunbeam from around the 1900s which a family friend Howard owns and kindly offered to drive us in.
Laura’s hair was done by Jess from Renaissance hair salon in Marlow and she adored it – especially the little daisies.
The flawless make-up was done by Amanda McKenna
Laura has the enviable job of writing for a wine magazine. The flower boxes were acquired from work.
Emily and Phil – wedding photography at St George The Martyr, Newbury with reception at Aldermaston Manor, Berkshire 17 Jun 2011 No Comments
It’s rare for us to photograph a local wedding; this was our first in our hometown of Newbury! Emily and Phil got married in St Nicholas’s. The vicar was very relaxed, always calming if the bride is a feeling naturally a bit nervous. The vicar gave us permission to photograph the service and even went as far to say that he hoped we got some good shoots. It was wonderful to be given a free reign, however it’s still a church service and not a photo shoot, so we choose to remain discreet. As it was, I was able to move down the side of the church unnoticed my rubber soled shoes and get different viewpoints. Martyn moved from the balcony to the back of the church for the ‘back of the dress’ shots. It was a great service, the choir that Emily sings in did a wonderful job.
The reception was at Aldermaston Manor. We got through the group list quickly but the rain held off. While Martyn was doing the groups, I was able to get lots of natural photographs of the guests enjoying themselves.
We finished the coverage with some photographs of the couple using the lake, the row of trees and the stunning staircase. Aldermaston Manor is a great venue and we are looking forward to photographing there again in August.
Fiona and David – wedding photography at Barnett Hill, Surrey 27 May 2011 No Comments
Here are just a few of my favourite images from Fiona and Davids wedding. Fiona wore a beautiful dress from Maggie Sottero which had lace flowers on it. Fiona’s hairdresser since childhood did her hair and Fiona bravely did her own make-up. She wasn’t nervous at all and looked like she thoroughly loved every minute of her day.
The wedding took place in St Edwards the Confessor, Sutton Green, near Guildford. It was the prettiest Catholic church I’ve ever seen. Despite it being the vicars first wedding, photography was allowed and he delivered a confident service.
The reception was held at Barnett Hill, a Queen Anne-style Country House with wonderful grounds and the interior is stunning, with a spectacular staircase. If you are considering this venue, the website doesn’t do the it justice!
The photos look amazing
Chris and Sarah – wedding photography at Coverwood Lakes 20 May 2011 No Comments
Chris and Sarah got married in St Mark church in Peaslake with a reception at the beautiful Coverwood Lakes. Coverwood Lakes is quite a magical venue and exclusive too as they only do about 6 weddings a year.
Regrettably the vicar at St Mark did not allow any photography during the service, so we had to make up for the lack of coverage during the drinks reception.
Before the wedding we spoke in detail about the type of wedding photography the couple wanted. Chris and Sarah preferred natural photographs of the two of them, as neither of them were very keen about being photographed! For the wedding photographs we made use of the stunning grounds that had come into flower earlier than expected due to this hot spring.
For the remaining drinks reception we got lots of informal photographs of the guests. The fashion for wedding guest seems to be bright pink and that was just the guys! Three men turned up in bright pink shirts, I assumed they were part of a club but apparently they didn’t know each other!
Sarah choose a purple colour theme, an usual but classic Pronovias wedding dress and their wedding cake was made of doughnuts, I must say it smelt very tasty. Everyone danced the night away to their band, rollercoaster.
We have received the photographs – they’re super, thanks! We’re very happy
