The Elephant Hotel in Pangborne, Berkshire, not too far from Reading town, was the wedding venue for this small but loving wedding for Kevin, Michelle and their very lovely dogs Bella and Sandy. The dogs attended the wedding and carried the rings.
The weather was good and it was a sunny warm day for this spring wedding in Pangborne.

Getting ready, Bridal preparation is always the best time to start the wedding photography for me. This is the time to ease into the wedding day without too much interference and a time for everyone to get accustomed to each other. This a good time to capture the moments before the roller coaster day starts! Documentary Photography is the way to go here for me and I love what natural candid photography can give to this part of the wedding day. These moments are a once in a lifetime opportunity and I love it when it all comes together like Natalie's getting ready pictures here.

Engagement shoot or pre-wedding shoot is a great way to break the ice and let the couple and photographer get to know each other better. I love doing these so when the wedding day arrives we are not total strangers and I feel like one of the guests at the wedding I will be photographing. These are usually really relaxed and easy going and I like to keep the photography as natural as possible. Vikki & Jason's Engagement shoot in the Berkshire countryside.
Catching the moment is one of the most satisfying things I can do photographing a wedding! Any moment no matter when or where it is during the day, capturing that moment makes it all worth while! It's one reason I love being a wedding photographer, knowing that moment will be part of their lives for ever!
This moment was the moment the groom returned to the top table. It was a great speech! and it shows! Thanks to Mark Seymour for the opportunity to photograph this wedding with him.
They are always great fun and participation for all the guests and everyone enjoys fighting the wind to get the best throw in!
Here is a shot from my friend Mark Seymour's wedding gig (We shot with two cameras) Larissa & Andrew were a great couple and shooting their wedding in and around the East end and the city of London was a real joy!
