Upwaltham Barns is such a beautiful wedding venue, I love it there so I was over the moon when Nicola and Chris asked me to photograph their wedding for them and what was even more special was they were having a church wedding in the very same one Steve and I got married in last year!  Perfect… !  I joined the girls at a lovely barn just down the road from me whilst they got made up and had their hair done – I love this part of the day and I had such a giggle with Nicola and her bridesmaids and not forgetting her lovely Dad who was there as well, making sure the champagne glasses were kept full – honestly the look on his face when he saw Nicola in her dress for the first time, I don’t think I’ll forget that moment in a while… it was so very special.  I also roped my friend Dean in for the morning from Dean Spearpoint Photography as Nicola wanted some shots of the boys getting ready too.  He did a fab job so thank you very much Dean!

Just being back in Holy Trinity church took me back to my wedding day just 3 months prior to Nicola and Chris’s, I was quite emotional (nothing new there then!).  The service was lovely, I’ve never seen the church so packed!  It was quite chilly outside afterwards so we didn’t hang about to do any family photos – just lots of natural shots and a bit of a confetti free-for-all then it was off up Duncton Hill to their stunning reception venue Upwaltham Barns to commence the celebrations!  And these guys definitely know how to party – everyone had so much fun!  I loved how they had decorated the barn Spriggs Florist had done an amazing job with the flowers and the cocktail names Nicola & Chris came up with for later were great too – it was proper happy hour in the barns that evening when they were served up!  Thanks again for booking me guys and I’m so pleased you are happy with your photos…
