Jo and Stefan had only recently booked me for their wedding at Hodsock Priory on Sunday. The brief for the day had been planned by email and telephone, Jo and Stefan live in Surrey and so we’d never actually met before. This wasn’t really a problem though as Jo and Stefan had requested very few formal images and a more natural photographic coverage of their wedding day.

Hodsock Priory provides an excellent venue and facilities for a wedding along with stunning grounds for photographs so even with only a few formals we made the most of the grounds with Jo and Stefan taking a walk through the Blossom trees and around the lake for some quick pictures before rejoining their guests. Shooting so much informally (Often referred to as Reportage wedding photography) allowed me to blend in with the guests and record their wedding day as it happened. Following first dance and plenty of dancing to the band (them not us) we rounded off the day with some photographs of the bride and groom under the floodlit archway.

Thanks to Chris and Lauren for your wonderful images and absolute professionalism on the day. It was such a pleasure dealing with you and the final product is absolutely amazing. Being able to view select images on screen during the actual evening of the wedding was a nice touch and everyone was transfixed! Thanks again, Valkerie – bridesmaid.

Wholeheartedly agree with Valks. It was an excellent day and the photos are amazing. Chris and Lauren were great and were really unobtrusive. The result – some brilliant natural shots of the bride and groom and all the guests enjoying the day. Seeing the photos on the television screen at the reception was a great touch. Being able to log on and view the photos online within days of the wedding was fantastic – given we have friends living in other parts of the world – it made it easy to share great memories from the day. Ordering the photos online was also a cinch – and I now have some of the best photos of us guys and gals from the day to keep! Good job all round!

I could not attend this lovely couple’s special day, but feel as though I was there! The images are simply divine and capture the absolute best of everyone in them. The bride is a long-time friend, and her personality is captured in these photos. Well done!

I loved being able to see the images of the wedding during the evening and being able to buy a photograph of Martin and I all dressed up on the night.

Alastair Davison - May 9, 2010 - 10:02 am

Great pictures, I wish we had great locations like that for wedding pictures.

Halina Reynolds - May 9, 2010 - 5:22 pm

Thanks Chris for the most amazing pictures of Stef & Jo’s special day. The day was absolutely fantastic and you managed to capture everything that was going on and each time i look at your website i can relive the day again and again. I had a hard time choosing which ones to buy as there are so many wonderful pictures and memories. Even friends who sadly couldnt be there on the day have commented how wonderful the photos are and they feel like they were there when looking at them.
Thanks again – Halina (Stef’s sister)

These are truly amazing, although I wasn’t at the wedding I’ve really enjoyed looking through the online gallery and the photos are truly stunning. Everyone at work has commented on how good you were and how amazing the photographs are, I’ve got to agree.
