Daniella and Anthony are due to be married this weekend at Shendish Manor, and the excitement for their big day has reached fever pitch! Ever since they came to our HQ in Elstree to chat about their wedding photography, we’ve been buzzing in anticipation. Steph, one of our Associate Photographers, went to meet the awesome couple in Spitalfields, London. Being after working hours and in the UK, there was no daylight to be had – but she still produced a special set of images which everyone is happy with. We are fairly certain Danni likes them, as her response was “They look amazinggggggggg OMG better than I thought they would!”

Unlike some photographers who offer an optional extra, we always insist on an Engagement Shoot whenever we take on a wedding commission, including it in the package. It serves to make the couple a little more comfortable in front of the camera, as well as allowing us to get to know them – what they like, what they don’t, what works very well and what works slightly less well! We all know couples who’ve gotten married and said “the photographer took some really great shots, but they’re not very ‘us’.” We find that the Engagement Shoot means any photos taken at your wedding will be ‘very you’.

Here are some of our favourites…
