Engagement Photos Cheltenham - Jonathan & Amy

I have Jonny & Amy's wedding booked in for 2010, but to celebrate their engagement we had a portrait session this week local to me in Cheltenham.

Engagement sessions are a great way to get to know how I work and for me to get to know you better. We spent a couple of hours out and about, to provide a collection of around 40 photos. Jonathan and Amy plan to choose one for mounting, which will then be displayed at their wedding for guests to sign.

Anyone looking to book an engagement session, or just fancy a portrait session, drop me a line and we'll sort something out.

Here are a few of my favourite photos.

Yes, those clouds shortly provided a customary summer shower!

I think this is my absolute fav from the engagement photos, although ask me tomorrow and I'll probably have changed my mind yet again!

Wedding Photography Dumbleton Hall, Worcestershire / Kemerton Church

Mark & Charlotte - 5th July 2009

The month of July. The British summer. Wimbledon. All this adds up to one thing - definitely not confirmed sunshine, more likely a sting in the tail....and Sat was no exception. One minute hot sunshine, the next thunderous black clouds and a very sharp shower! It all adds to the excitement of the day and for those brides that purchase umbrellas they'll probably get some use.

It was a cute church village wedding this weekend, then onto Dumbleton Hall for the drinks reception. The Cotswolds certainly has some beautiful villages..... every time I drive though Dumbleton I consider remortgaging. Ummmmm...some lovely houses around there!

Anyhow, a few wedding photos from the day.

Kemerton Church - very cute, and with a handy balcony I might add!

It's nice to be allowed to take photos during the service so I had chance to cover a few angles.

The aforementioned handy balcony.

I'm sure I saw this wedding car earlier in the year too - yep, a Pittville Pump Rooms wedding I do believe!

A bridesmaid who also makes wedding cakes....now there's a handy person to know.

........and back to calm! OMG, summer is so confusing!

A photo of Dumbleton Hall, with what I would almost describe as a superimposed couple - does it look like that to you too?
