Last sunday saw us down at the beautiful venue of  Auberge du Lac. A fanastic Michelin star restaurant in the grounds of Brocket Hall just outside of Harpenden shooting the wedding of Amie & Michael. We started off at the couples house in Much Hadden photographing the bride getting ready, after a few shots at a very cool barn door with her sister & parents we headed off to the ceremony.

It was a shame that horses & rabbits couldn't make it but we did manage to get a couple of shots of the lovely rabbits! Having not shot at the venue before it was good that we arrived with a little time to go as the ceremony room was pretty dark but beautifully formed! It gave us time to set out a plan to cover the ceremony properly!

A great day was had by everyone, we had to dodge a little rain but manged to get the couple outside for a few piccies when the light was the best it had been all day! A huge thank you to everyone at Auberge du Lac for their hospitality and to Amie & Michael and family for having us shoot their wedding and for a wonderful day.

Here are a few pictures from the day:

A few pictures from a lovely shoot with Dani, Kelly & Abbie who's wedding we shot a couple of years ago in Canada. Despite the cold windy day the sun was shining so we ran around outside to keep warm , oh and took a few shots also!! Beautiful family. It was a pleasure to photograph them again and will be as the years go on!  Here are a few shots from the shoot:

What a great family shoot we had with the Smith family whilst in Canada. We didn't have too long to do the shoot so made the most of the open plan nature of their house. Using a large window, high ISO's and 50mm 1.2 lens. A big thanks to them for giving us their beautiful family for 20 mins and also for their hospitality.

 

Here are a few shots from the mini shoot:

    Awesome Brett, thanks so much, you guys did an amazing job. Maia says thanks for letting her unicorn and mermaid be part of the family shoot too! ;)

  • Dawnelle Brown (05.04.2012 | 12:11)

    Love these. Beautiful capture!

  • Jana (05.04.2012 | 12:51)

    Absolutely brilliant work. Every mother's nightmare is to have a child that does not co-operate for the family photos, and we had two! In 15 minutes of shooting you captured a lifetime of smiles, love and laughter for us! Thanks Brett, Kris and Kenzie:)

The end of April saw us shoot the wedding of Richard & Sam at The Sopwell House Hotel. We had a great day dodging the rain and using the grounds and building to the best of our ability. With guests from all over the world and most of the brides family coming from Trinidad & Tobago, this made for a very colorful wedding with Sam looking beautiful in her gorgeous sleek dress and Richard very smart in his dark blue suit. It was a very relaxed wedding with canopies & drinks being served afterwards on the lawn & terrace before the weather changed! Thank you to all for our hospitality on the day. Here are a few images from the wedding. We look forward to the couple seeing the rest.

We are delighted to be photographing the wedding of Paul & Kelly this year in June. Last week we met for a coffee in Primrose Hill. After chatting about the wedding day we went for a walk for 30 mins and had a shoot in the streets. The pre-wed shoot is all about having fun and getting to know the couple, keeping the shoot as easy as we can and working with the couple to create some cool and informal shots. A huge thank you to Paul & Kelly for marching around town with us and for being so easy to work with. We very much look forward to your wedding. Here are a few images from the shoot:
