Hengrave Hall wedding photographer of Laura & Selim

Hengrave Hall wedding photography. I love autumn and the misty, mellow weather it brings. Golden autumn leaves just ready to fall from the trees. Perhaps even some low lying honey-dew sunshine, if you are really lucky. That is what the start of Laura and Selim’s wedding day promised. But only the start of the day; by midday, it could have been mid-summer! What an incredible day. Normally when you are planning a wedding in November, you talk about the ‘maybes’ and ‘rare possibilities’ of being able to spend a little time outside for photographs – even if it’s a few minutes with just the bride and groom. In reality, we assume that the weather is going to be …well … a bit ordinary. But not for Laura and Selim’s wedding, it was one of those ‘rare maybes’ when the weather was not only good, it was flipping incredible. It kind of took everyone by surprise a little. After the ceremony, everyone was guided out onto the West Terrace for champagne and canapés in the glorious sunshine and warmth and we all looked a little confused, feeling a little wrong for being out there in November.

So you have two pretty stunning ingredients for a wedding day: picture perfect weather and a beautiful location. But as impressive and imposing a back drop Hengrave Hall is, Laura and Selim were incredibly relaxed, full of laughter and ready for the day. Such a lovely couple to work with, I don’t think Laura stopped smiling all day! And this is where the third and possibly the only really important ingredient of the day comes in – chemistry. And boy, these guys had it by the bucket load, a perfect fit. Testament to them as well was a great set of family and friends they had too.

Many congratulations to the new Mr & Mrs, may all your days be full of lovely friends, big smiles and golden sunshine! And a few warm November days here and there, just to keep things interesting.
