Channels Estate Wedding Photography – Oh my, this was a beautiful wedding! Nikki and Trevor got married on a wonderfully sunny June day and the Channels Estate in Essex. It was my first visit to Channels estate and I was really impressed – as well as being gorgeous it was very well run (and a well run venue always makes a wedding photographer’s life so much easier!).
Huge thanks to Martin Hobby for once again doing a fantastic job second shooting with me. He started off photographing the boys getting ready at The Compasses Inn, just down the road in Littley Green, whilst I photographed Nikki and her girls beautifying. Nikki was really calm and the girls were finished exactly on schedule – we ended up waiting for the registrars to be ready, which doesn’t happen very often!
I loved this wedding for two reasons. Firstly – almost all of it was outside, including the ceremony and the speeches. Outside speeches are a fantastic idea (in good weather of course!). They had a really laid back vibe to them, with the bonus of beautiful light for the photographs. The second reason I loved this wedding was the fact that Nikki and Trevor smiled ALL day! They were relaxed and happy and that is the secret to having a great wedding (and therefore great wedding photographs!).
Congratulations Nikki & Trevor – here’s to a lifetime more of you two grinning at each other!
