After the madness of wedding season, I find autumn to be such a wonderful time of year for engagement shoots and Elly and Tom’s engagement shoot was a great reminder of why. We took to the Embankment to capture their engagement, a quintessential Bedford spot and one of my favourite places to shoot.
Elly and I had known each other for a while through Bedford’s vibrant creative community, so it was great to finally meet her fiancé Tom who I’d heard all about! They make such a wonderful couple and I had so much fun capturing their excitement as we walked along the River Great Ouse. It was lovely chatting all things wedding and it was impossible not to get caught up in their excitement for the big day.
Beautiful sunshine brought out all the rich autumn colours along the river, and I just loved how Elly and Tom wore matching Vans which brought their own personal style to the shoot and looked fab against the fallen leaves.
Two years later their fabulous wedding took me back to South Farm for a sunflower-filled autumn celebration, but that’s another post for another time!
