Christina & Manoli's Wedding at the 'Radisson Edwardian Hotel' - Oct 2009

Christina and Manoli were married on a bright Autumn day, in North London, on 31st October, 2009.  We took the opportunity to do a photo shoot between the ceremony and the reception at a local picturesque park.  Here we used the Autumn light and colour to capture many beautiful images, with the lake as a background.  Their reception was held at the fabulous 'Raddison Edwardian Heathrow Hotel', ( www.radissonedwardian.co.uk. )  where the ambience in the magnificent conservatory was breathtaking.  Huge palm trees, underlit with cerise pink lights, towered above a waterfall, where a bridge over it, was illuminated by warm, glowing candles.  To end our day with Christina and Manoli we shot some images in the flourescent lit 'Atrium', which is situated right at the top of this striking hotel.  The videographer was the amazing and professional Andy of 'Zeus Films'.  We have worked with him on numerous occassions and would highly reccommend his work. ( www.zeusfilms.co.uk ).  Christina and Manoli thought their photographs were fantastic!

 

'Babington House' Honeymoon Weekend - 24th October 2009

Tom and Claire spent their 'honeymoon weekend' at 'Babington House', Somerset. ( www.babingtonhouse.co.uk )
Just as the Autumn sun was setting, we captured some stylish and creative images inside the luxurious venue and also around the grounds.  The aim of this shoot was to show the fusion of contemporary compositions against a historical background.  The shots outside the small stone chapel, which is situated in the grounds of 'Babington House', are particulary strong images and these were achieved with the use of specialised lighting techniques.  Tom and Claire were very impressed with all of the photographs, including the ones taken at their wedding in Bath and their party at 'Bath Race Course'.  ( www.bath-racecourse.co.uk. )

Tom and Claire's evening party at 'Bath Race Course' -

After a wonderful wedding ceremony and reception, two days previous, at Bath Abbey and 'The Park Resort', Tom and Claire continued their celebration with a magnificent party at 'Bath Race Course'. ( www.bath-racecourse.co.uk )As the guests arrived, they followed a pathway, lit by glowing candles, which led them to a huge marquee themed as a 'winter wonderland'.  Inside, the marquee was decorated with beautiful flower displays and everything white and shiny.  Also, at the entrance, there stood six stylish images, mounted on easels of Tom and Claires' wedding day that we had processed, printed and framed especially for the occassion.  Throughout the evening a short video was played to provide guests with a taster of the whole of the wedding day.  ( www.firebird-films.com  )  As you can see from our images, everyone had a really fun and memorable time.

Claire and Tom at Bath Abbey / The Park nr Bath

Claire Ashdown and Tom Church were married on 22nd October at Bath Abbey, followed by a wedding breakfast and reception at The Park Resort nr Bath ( www.theparkresort.co.uk).  This part of Claire and Toms' wedding day was expertly organised by Jenny who is the events manager at The Park Resort.

Despite torrential rain during most of the day we captured some amazing images at The Abbey and earlier with Claires preparations at Melanie Giles hair salon in The City centre (www.melanie-giles.co.uk ). where the bridal make up was created by Claire's best friend Cami, a highly skilled television and film make up artist ( camilla_k_r@hotmail.com ).

After the ceremony, in the historical Bath Abbey, we relaxed and had a fun time with the bridal party walking through the streets of Bath taking photographs amongst the tourists.  The warm honey stone Georgian buildings provided us with numerous photographic opportunities and this allowed us to create a fusion of substance and style.

Claire's exquisite wedding gown was designed by Max Chaoul couture and sold exclusively through Rachel Couture ( www.rachelelbazcouture.com )at her Knightsbridge boutique.  This was co-ordinated with an amazing hair accessory by Edwina Ibbotson (                             020 7498 5390               ).  This dress will soon be featured in Cosmopolitan Bride using images from this wedding ( www.youandyourwedding.co.uk ).  Her gorgeous bouquet was made by Ellie at Clifton Flowers in Bristol ( www.cliftonflowers.co.uk ).

Transport for the day was arranged with Englands Finest car company in Bristol, run by the ever efficient Jayne who even acted as unofficial bridesmaid by carrying Claire's dress into the reception! ( www.englandsfinest.co.uk ).
