Thames Rowing Club Wedding

A Thames Rowing Club Wedding

 

I love shooting weddings in London and this Thames Rowing Club Wedding alongside The Thames by Putney Bridge was no exception. Even allowing for the fact that I locked my keys in my car at The Lodge Hotel where the bridal preparation were taking place..  Obviously I could never admit to this as it would make me look extremely unprofessional if not downright idiotic, so I’d appreciated it if you kept this between us. Thanks :)

I’d first met Kathryn and Peter for their pre-wedding shoot that we did in Hyde Park about six weeks earlier. The day was one of glorious sunshine which turned out to be in stark contrast to the rather rainier weather of the wedding day itself. Before I met the pair of them I’d had the usual protestations that they weren’t very photogenic but you can see this was far from the case! The prep took place at The very stylish  Lodge Hotel (LINK) on Richmond Road in Putney with the ceremony and reception all taking place at The Thames Rowing Club (LINK!) clubhouse. The Club sits (unsurprisingly!) alongside The Thames on Putney Embankment and affords  fabulous views from the balcony that runs the length of The Club House.

The guests braved the rain to stand under the awning for the group shots while we made some Hollywood style portraits indoors. The rain meant going outside for Bride and Groom portraits wasn’t an option so I waited for a small gap in the weather. I’d set up a multi light portrait of the couple along the Thames and  the second the rain eased up we went out to capture it. It turned out to be one of  my favourite shots of the year! Indeed you can see it with other faves from the year on my home page..(WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER CAMBRIDGE)

Enfield Register Office Wedding Photographer For Farbin and Chris :)

Enfield Register Office Wedding Photographer

When Farbin booked me as their Enfield Register Office Wedding Photographer I was a happy photographer. , (Ruksana and Asif – Click Here!) , it was a pleasure to meet Farbin and Chris and their respective families. Register Offices can veer from the sublime to, well, not so sublime. Enfield Register Office is situated more towards the sublime end of the scale!  The Office building itself is striking and it is adjacent to the rather photogenic lock ensuring that photo opportunities abound.
They were married in The Admiral’s Suite and we did the group photos out front of the Register Office and, also, alongside the lock.

Unbeknown to Farbin, a beautiful horse and carriage had been booked to take the couple to their reception at Capel Manor Gardens. As can happen through their ride was greatly delayed and meant people flannelling for an hour with various bogus reasons as to why it wasnt time to go yet! This wasn’t all bad as we were to get some of my favourite pictures in the enforced wait. Thankfully the secret was kept until their carriage finally did await and we were off to Capel Manor House. The Manor House is another place I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to prospective brides and grooms. A Georgian Manor House in thirty beautiful acres, Capel Manor is also a horticultural college with quite beautiful gardens. I’ve yet to shoot a full day there but am very much looking forward to when I do!  The evening ended with cake and sparklers.

Cambridge Wedding Photographer – Best of 2015 Wedding Photography

Being a Cambridge Wedding Photographer..

..in 2015 was pretty cool and the couples I met were even cooler :). Whilst I am based in Ely just outside Cambridge  I spent at least half my time photographing Wedding Days in London and the surrounds. Continuing the Have Camera Will Travel theme one of my favourite venues was The Hard Day’s Night Hotel in Liverpool for Amanda and Lee’s wedding. The Hotel is round the corner from the world-famous Cavern Club and is a completely Beatles inspired affair.  Amanda and Lee spent time in both The Lennon Suite and The McCartney Suite and either of them make fabulous suites for Newlyweds. If you are a Beatles fan you should really check the place out. You can see some of the day on this earlier blog post. I’m also a sucker for weddings in barns and Maidens Barn in Essex was another favourite place to photograph. Again, you can see examples of a wedding at Maidens barn on this blog post from last year. I’d say my favourite reception venue of the year was The Roost in Dalston, London. The Roost is a former Victorian Pub now converted into a four floor photographic and film location. I would definitely recommend you give it a look if you are London-based, if only for photographic reasons!  The Dovecliff Hall Hotel in Derby completes my round-up of non Cambridge wedding venue recommendations for this year! Dating back to 1790 the Hall is an elegant Georgian House surrounded by seven acres of beautiful Staffordshire countryside and it can lend an air of relaxed sophistication to the most hectic of days.
I’d like to wish all my couples (That term can sound a little possessive, I don’t actually own them!) every happiness for the future. I’ll finish this post with a collection of my favourite wedding photography for the year. A look around this website, specifically the Portfolio and Blog sections will give you a feel for how I work.  If you are looking for a Cambridge Wedding Photographer for 2016 and beyond please get in touch by email at andy@andymitty.com, use the contact form on the site,  or , better still, phone me on 07939 232347. All shares of this post much appreciated and have a great 2016!

Stanhill Court Wedding Photographer – Kirsty and Andy

Stanhill Court Wedding Photographer – A Winter’s Tale.

Kirsty and Andy married in December at The Stanhill Court Hotel in Charlwood Surrey (stanhillcourthotel.co.uk) and I got to be their Stanhill Court Wedding Photographer. I’d previously met them both for their pre wedding shoot. Time constraints for the pair of them meant we only got together quite late in the year but there was a marked difference in weather between the late September shoot and their late December wedding! September was balmy whilst December was, to put it mildly, brisk. Stanhill Court is a fabulous country house hotel in beautiful grounds and is licensed for civil wedding ceremonies.  It is a great wedding venue in an idyllic setting and we enjoyed photographing in the grounds in late summer. However, as temperatures plummeted, there wouldn’t be such leisurely strolls this time..
You don’t have to know Kirsty long to know she’s a bright girl. Indeed she’s a very bright girl. Who doesn’t like the cold. Who obviously decides to gets married in the glorious English Winter! Undeterred, Kirsty faced down her nemesis  “The Cold” for the group photographs but wisely spent the rest of the day enjoying the luxury to be found within the Hotel. The highlight of the day for me would have been an adapted “Twelve Days of Christmas” led by two of Andy’s best men, Mark and Steve.  It would be worth tracking down the video just to see it :).  Suffice to say that all present now know that Andy is indeed “a nice guy”. A dance off and a photobooth finished off the events later on. (Click here for the Photobooth!)

Here is a slideshow of their day and you can see the pictures below. Thanks
