Lauren and Angelo's Wedding


Lauren and Angelo tied the knot today at the beautiful Stoke Park Club and it was a pleasure to be there to photograph the wedding. It was a special day, beautiful weather, a fabulous location and a couple clearly in love. I was there right through to the dancing in the evening and it was great fun photographing all the things that went on throughout the big day. Lauren and Angelo are busy enjoying their honeymoon in Mauritius so until they get back, here's some moments that caught my eye.

This is where today all started.

I love the light through the veil on this shot.
What a room eh?


I do like to look out for unusual compositions on a wedding. And I know it's a weird thing to say but I like both the expressions in this photo.

Pete, Laurens Dad starts his speech. Lauren wonders what is coming next.

Angelo tells the one about the bartender, the herd of goats and the whipped cream.

When I had finished and was on the way back to the carpark, I turned around and saw this.
Have a brilliant honeymoon Lauren and Angelo, see you when you get back :)
