A Bridal Shoot with a Victorian Botanical theme at Westenhanger Castle in Kent

October 30, 2016 • Leave a Comment

I love Autumn, the colour change on the trees, digging out your cosy clothes and hunkering down with a hot chocolate and a decent size slab of cake (not too particular about the flavour) and with the full madness of Wedding season beginning to calm down taking time out to reflect and share some of what I have been up to this year.

This year has been fabulous for so many reasons, some of which I will begin to share with you all over the next few weeks. I collaborated on my first styled shoot back in April this year having been fortunate enough to have met Sarah Poole, who runs and owns the fabulous Westenhanger Castle near Hythe in Kent, through a mutual friend. This venue is stunning and quite unusual in many ways with a dovecote attached at the back of the main Manor house. This has been recently restored and is an amazing space for some unusual and unique Wedding Photographs. Don't worry no Doves were actually harmed in the making of this shoot.

The concept for the shoot was provided by Lisa Carey from www.mostcuriousrose.co.uk, a fabulously innovative floral stylist who specialises in using British seasonal flowers. In her words "We combined the beautiful elements of modern botanicals, perfect for the classic Bride who wants to engage in some of today's hottest trends". We have been honoured that images from this shoot have already been featured in September/October's edition of Your Kent Wedding Magazine http://www.yourkent.wedding

I hope you all manage to have a lazy Sunday, enjoying for now the mild weather. I am signing out for my own lazy Sunday lunch with friends including great food, company and a walk in the park. Until next time x
