Julie and Ross Prewedding Photoshoot

On a damp Sunday, Alan and I met up with Julie and Ross at Highcliffe Castle for their prewedding photoshoot.  In between dodging the showers, we ventured out into the gardens for some photos. Julie and Ross' wedding is just around the corner and we are very much being a part of their big day!
Here is sneak preview of some of the photos we took - enjoy!!

Caroline and Mark's engagement shoot at Highcliffe Castle

It has been a busy few days for us with one wedding and three engagement shoots in four days, but it makes us appreciate how great our job is!  We love it!

We met up with Caroline and Mark yesterday morning at the stunning Highcliffe Castle and the weather could not have been more kind, big fluffy white clouds, a hint of sunshine and not a breath of wind.  Caroline and Mark were naturals in front of the camera and we took lots of lovely photos of this great couple. Here is a selection from the shoot, the rest will be online on Saturday.  We hope you are pleased with them, and yes Caroline, it does give you one more chance to check out our Blog!  Please leave us a comment if you like what you see.

Love

Tracey and Craig at Highcliffe Castle and The Sandbanks Hotel

Saturday morning's weather could not have been more un-wedding like as I drove to meet Tracey and her six bridesmaids at the Christchurch Harbour Hotel, the rain was torrential and the thunder claps loud! However, it was not long before the skies brightened and sun popped out from beneath the clouds.

There was a flurry of activity from the moment I arrived at the hotel, with seven girls to get ready, that really was not surprising! Things went like clockwork though and Tracey and her bridesmaids were ready bang on time. Tracey looked stunning in her strapless Soterro and Midgely gown and perfectly coiffured up do with sparkly slide. Her full length veil completing the ensemble. Tracey's bridemaids looked elegant in their mint green chiffon gowns. Soon it was ready to leave.

Whilst I had been photographing the bridal preps, Alan had been busy with Craig and the boys at Highcliffe Castle. They all looked handsome in their grey morning suits and cream and mint green accessories.

Photos were taken of Tracey's arrival and it was time for an emotional and personal ceremony for this beautiful couple before heading outside for some photos in the grounds.

Tracy and Craig had arranged for an old London Routemaster bus to take their guests to The Sandbanks Hotel for the reception. Alan and I and the newly weds took a slight detour to Evening Hill before heading off to the reception. Speeches done, meal eaten, we dodged the showers and headed off to the beach for some gorgeous bridal portraits and a toss of the bouquet. The evening reception started with the arrival of their live band, a balloon modeller and their first dance.

Tracey and Craig head off to Mexico on Tuesday, we wish them a wonderful honeymoon and a happy life together.

We hope you all enjoy the photographs and we would be grateful if you could leave a comment! Donna and Alan XXX
