I recently caught up with Vicky & Haydn at Shugborough Hall to have a good chat about their wedding day and to shoot their engagement session … it wasn’t long before I was trudging up to The Ashes in Endon, Staffordshire for their big day.  The venue looked absolutely stunning, nestled in the snowy countryside, so  quick stop-off at the top of the drive to capture the scene was in order.  All I can say is, thank heavens for 4WD cars !!!

Vicky looked absolutely stunning in her Sassi Holford gown and vintage accessories … Haydn scrubbed up well too haha … the ceremony was overseen by a massive Christmas tree and all of Vicky’s little details dotted around the room added to the atmosphere.  I just loved her choice of muted colours, really vintage and of course suited to my style of photography (I wonder why they chose me 🙂 ).

Vicky’s sister had made up a vintage photobooth complete with handmade signs and little moustaches … I could NOT resist using these little props for some of the portraits with the guys.  Fun !

So, a few from the day … remember, it was minus 12 out there, making this one very brave bride !!

Please feel free to leave a lovely comment for Vicky & Haydn 🙂  Congrats to you both !
