The Wedding of Sophie & Garry @ Burgate, Suffolk - Suffolk Wedding Photography

The next wedding we had the pleasure of photographing was Sophie and Garry's wedding which took place at Burgate Church followed by their marquee reception on Burgate Green. We were pretty lucky with the weather (considering what we seem to be getting this year!) and although it was overcast and windy it didn't rain on us!  Sophie and Garry clearly spent a long time planning the day and all the details and masses of flowers were glorious.  Here's a selection from their day starting with Sophie getting ready

Whilst I was with Sophie, David started with the boys at the church.  Garry certainly arrived in style in these stunning TVR's

I love this sneaky one of Garry having a little tipple before the ceremony

Don't the boys look handsome

As parking was limited at the church and marquee, guests were sent to a little car park and then transported by tractor and trailer!

Both the mum's greeting each other when Sophie's mum arrived

The bridesmaids and flowergirls looked so pretty

I love this photo ... Sophie looks a little nervous but very beautiful

It's always lovely when we have a nice vicar who lets me stand at the front and David at the back as it allows us to get both angles throughout the ceremony - thank you to David (the vicar) for being kind to us - I think it helped a little that we've worked with him on several weddings before so he knows we won't upset or disturb the service!

Sophie's dad (and the bridesmaids and Sophie's mum) grinning in this photo really makes me smile as they all look so happy

I adore this one of the two of them looking really relaxed

Sophie's parents live on the green at Burgate so we were lucky to be able to use their garden for some photos.  It was a little sad though as the rose archway should have been in full bloom and all the flowers should have been out in the garden but unfortunately due to the weather everything was too far behind this year - I still think the gardens were stunning though and must have taken hours of work to get them looking this nice

Here's some of the guests arriving at the marquee

As it was pretty breezy and a little cool outside it was decided that instead of drinks and canapees on the green that the guests should make their way into the marquee where they could keep warm

Sophie and Garry had a gorgeous candy cart which went down very well with the guests

It seemed a shame not to use the straw bales and beautiful outdoor area for at least the group shots

Sophie's bouquet was very beautiful

 Inside the marquee was so pretty and floral

I love the effort gone into this candy cart - so retro and stylish

Sophie's mum made both the cake and the cupcakes - she is a very talented lady and both looked stunning

If you attended Sophie and Garry's Wedding and would like to view their wedding photos they are now online and they have the password which I'm sure they'll share with you.

Sophie and Garry are a lovely couple who were a pleasure to photograph.  We hope that the rest of the evening after we left also went well and we wish them all the best for their future together - we're certain they'll be very happily married for years to come. 

We look forward to hearing from Sophie and Garry once they've had the chance to look through all their photos and hope they adore them as much as we do.

Exciting News on Products - Suffolk Wedding Photographer

Hey all and a very happy long Jubilee weekend to you all :-)

Just a quick post as I mentioned earlier this year that as well as keeping Jorgensen as our suppliers of beautiful albums and Loxley Colour for our main Bellissimo photobooks we have decided to work together also with a company called Pinhole Press.

Pinhole Press do a whole range of press printed (so not your traditional silver halide prints) products ranging from small books and cards to calendars, wine labels and notepads.  I know that there are a lot of companies out there who already do these kinds of things but so far, we've been pushed to find one that is willing to offer professional and very high quality products to both us as photographers and you as our clients.  Well, the time has arrived as Pinhole Press are prepared to do just that.

Basically, as our clients you just need to follow the link below to view the products and see if any take your fancy and you're away:

Now for all of you who have purchased DVD's of your images from us you can just upload the images you wish to use and design your products directly from them.

When you reach the check out stage you will need to register (just name, address - the normal stuff) but you may be asked for your Pinhole Photographer Code.  If you are it is case sensitive and is:

HAYLEYDENSTONPHOTOGRAPHY

So if you're bored over the bank holiday weekend or just want to try something a little different with your photographs here's some examples of what you can make:

The mini panoramic books are gorgeous, they have a linen spine (you can choose from various colours), a hardback cover (no padding) and pages that can be produced on either an art paper (which has a lovely retro feel to it) or a lustre paper (that is more like a traditional photographic print).

 

The notepads are divine and would make great gifts - they have an image on the cover and then one on the bottom of each page.  You can also get magnetic notepads (great for sticking to the fridge and writing your shopping list or to-do-list on!) and bigger scribble pads

We hope that you see something you like at Pinhole Press and that this link up between us and them is useful to you - if you do order from them please let us know what you think of the final products you receive - so far everyone we've shown our samples to loves them.
