A Beautiful Summer Wedding at Rottal Estates & Steading
After spending so many years together, this couple finally got to say "I do" surrounded by the people they love most, at the beautiful Rottal Estates. It was a day filled with everything we hope for at a wedding: genuine emotion, endless laughter, sunshine, happy tears and plenty of moments that will be remembered for years to come.
There were emotions from the very beginning, and one particular moment that I’ll never forget was seeing a tear from the bride’s dad. He’s someone who doesn’t often show his emotions, which made that little tear even more meaningful. Those are the moments I love capturing most, the tiny, unplanned reactions that tell the story of just how much a day means.
And then there were the flower girls! Absolutely adorable, full of personality and completely in love with the bouncy castle. Honestly, a bouncy castle at a wedding is a brilliant idea when there are children involved, although I’m pretty sure the adults were enjoying it just as much! It brought so much fun and energy to the day and gave the little ones their own special part of the celebrations.
Before their wedding, we had already spent time together during their engagement session. It gave us the chance to get to know each other, have a laugh and, most importantly, get them comfortable in front of the camera. By the time their wedding day arrived, they knew exactly what to expect, and it showed.
They felt completely confident during their couple photographs, which meant we could simply have fun, enjoy the moment and create photographs that felt natural and genuinely like them. There was no awkward posing, just the two of them enjoying being newly married.
Meanwhile, the celebrations continued around us. Guests were having the best time catching up with family and friends, many of whom hadn’t seen each other for a long time. There were smiles everywhere, conversations happening in every corner and plenty of laughter throughout the day.
It was one of those weddings where you could truly feel how loved this couple are.
