I’ve been looking forward to this wedding for a long time – you couldn’t ask for two lovelier people to work with on their wedding day than Rachel and Dougan. To be honest, they could have got married anywhere and the intensity of emotion and chemistry would be there by the bucket load but as it was they were married in the beautiful and ancient Holy Trinity Church at Long Melford (a short walk from Rachel’s house) and onto the fantastic Suffolk wedding venue of Hengrave Hall, a amazing backdrop to a fantastic day. The most telling point of the whole day was right at the beginning when I was talking through the logistics and timings with Dougan (groom’s usually need reminding & usually at least a couple of times!) but Dougan took it all in and just replied “I’m getting married to Rachel, that’s all that really counts”. Can’t say fairer than that. So many favourite shots to choose from the day but here’s one that stood out. Hengrave Hall wedding photography. More to follow soon.
