Pre-wedding photos in Van Dyk Hotel – Claire and Rob

Because Claire and Rob will get married next spring, we decided that it would be great to do their pre-wedding shoot in autumn, so that to capture the beautiful golden colours of this time of year…

This photo shoot was done in the begining of November. To be honest, we thought that the weather could be worse and decided to choose for the shoot their wedding venue, Van Dyk Hotel, which has beautiful grounds in front and very interesting interior. Luckily, the weather on that day was absolutely stunning – a sunny day with beautiful blue sky so we’ve taken a few pictures in inside the hotel and then went out for some photos around the hotel.

Claire, Rob, thanks for the good preparation for the shoot – We can’t wait to photograph your wedding day!

Pre-wedding photographs of Tia and Jessary

This post continues a series of our autumn photo shoots. This time I would like to share with you pre-wedding session of Tia and Jessary, a very cheerful and lively couple.
This pre-wedding shoot was a very special and I’ll tell you why. Tia and Jessary are originally from Taiwan. According to Taiwanese traditions, a pre-wedding shoot is a very important part of the wedding – in fact, in terms of photography the couple treats the pre-wedding shoot as the most important day of their wedding. So we had the whole day dedicated to photography!!
Tia and Jessary prepared very well for this day: a few different dresses and accessories for Tia, two suites for Jessary and many other small things. As for location, they chose several places in the West Midlands: University of Birmingham, Blenheim Palace and Birmingham City Centre.
Despite few rain drops, the weather was kind to us, the autumn colours were just astonishing and the atmosphere during the photoshoot was just amazing! Tia, Jessary, thank you very much for your time, smiles and excellent mood during the day!

Wedding photos at Eastwood Hall – Rachel and Donovan

Following the recently posted pre-wedding pictures of Rachel and Donovan (click here), I’m glad to share with you their wedding pictures.
Despite late October, the weather during the wedding day was just perfect – sunny and warm. The Ceremony was organised in the Derby Cathedral – a magnificent building located right in the historical Cathedral Quarter of Derby.
The reception and wedding breakfast were held not far away – in Eastwood Hall where we had some time to walk around and take sunny and beautiful pictures.
Rachel and Donovan chose purple colours for their reception – you can see how beutifully the tables were decorated. Many thanks to Jen, wedding planner from Chapter 16, for organisation and help during the wedding day.
Rachel and Donavan, it was pleasure to photograph you – thank you for your time and readiness to be photographed even at evening time. All the best to you!
