New Forest Wedding Photography at Whitley Ridge, Anna and Ian

Anna and Ian's August wedding at Whitley Ridge in the New Forest was the first time Teri and I have photographed a wedding at this New Forest Wedding Venue and we had a blast!

The wedding and reception took place at the beautiful Whitley Ridge Manor House near Brockenhurst and there was a very relaxed and intimate feel to the day, having just a small number of family and friends.

One of the fun things Anna and Ian had asked was for a re-creation of a treasured family photograph taken nearly 100 years ago. While we don't often so formally pose group shots it can be fun and the aged sepia effect Teri added made the wedding photo very similar in tint and tone with the 100 year old image Anna had shown us.

Whitley Ridge itself is a wonderful venue, a hotel with a manor house feel and wonderful landscaped grounds for the romantic shots with Anna and Ian, the timing could not have worked out better as we managed to capture the warm evening sunlight.

Wishing Anna and Ian very many congratulations from Teri and I! :)

Carly and Lee Pre-Wedding Engagement Session near Kingston Maurward

It's no secret that we love doing environmental engagement sessions. With Carly and Lee, we knew it was going to be extra special. I don't even think I can put into words how much fun it was to hang out with them, and be treated by Lee's serenading Carly on the beach.

Carly is going to be a stunning bride, and Lee is going to be a very striking groom. They are without a doubt going to bring the fun factor to their wedding next June at Kingston Maurward House near Dorchester. Music will be very important, as it's a huge part of Lee's life. We love this set of images, and can't wait for the wedding. So allow me to introduce Carly and Lee!

David and I have a busy few months lined up with some amazing couples, if we get chance through the summer to update the blog we will, otherwise check back around Christmas when we start the big updates. The facebook page tends to be updated slightly more often so do check that as well :)
