Although the British weather had other plans for their outdoor ceremony, the short burst of rain on Nicola and James’ wedding day certainly didn’t dampen their spirits and it was such a joy to return to South Farm to capture their fantastic wedding day.

Given that Nicola is a fashion designer, her outfit was every bit as chic as expected! She looked stunning in a beaded Maggie Sottero dress which she paired with a beautiful bouquet of peach and blue flowers by the talented florist Clare Jones.

One of the most emotional moments was when Nicola's dad saw her in her dress for the first time - there wasn’t a dry eye, including mine behind the camera!

The ceremony took place in the Old Dairy, and James's reaction to seeing Nicola walk down the aisle was priceless. It was such a privilege to capture such a joy filled ceremony and it was clear they are just perfect for each other. And with perfect timing, as the ceremony concluded the rain stopped so we could kickstart the celebrations with a confetti shot!

We had so much fun laughing with the two of them as we shot their couple portraits on the tree-lined path to the venue, before they stopped for a cheeky ice cream on the way to their receiving line.

The Tudor Barn looked gorgeous set up for the wedding breakfast, most notably decorated with a personalised Monopoly board on each table, adorned with their names and each property on the board named after places special to them. It was such a unique and personal touch and made for a great talking point amongst their guests!

After cutting their wedding cake, the dance floor buzzed with serious moves and we loved capturing Nicola and James dancing with their friends and family. As I left I couldn’t resist taking the two of them out for one last portrait in the beautiful golden hour, before leaving them to celebrate the night away.

Thank you both so much for having us capture your wedding day. We loved every minute and wish the two of you every happiness!

“Thank you so much for everything you did for us on our wedding day. Not only did you capture our day with such beautiful photographs, but you made the day feel so relaxed and comfortable for us. You were also so doting to us with everything we needed and went above and beyond your title as photographer - you even did up Nicola’s dress when her mum couldn’t find her glasses! Thanks for being the best photographer, and our friend.”
