The morning
Getting ready at Apton Hall
Sian and Chris approached me back in March after seeing me photograph their friends, Ashley and Chris’, wedding. After a short exchange of emails, I was chuffed that they decided to go ahead and book me to be their wedding photographer at Apton Hall. One pandemic later, and in October I was photographing their wedding at Apton Hall wedding venue, near Rochford (a venue I am lucky enough to be a recommended supplier at). Their wedding really did have it all, from singing waiters to dance-offs, bongo & sax players to sparklers, and we were treated to one of the best sunsets I have ever seen at Apton Hall! Below you can find a few of their favourite images from the day!
I loved so many photos from the preparations of this day it was hard to only share a few with you on the blog. Every image in my opinion shows what an amazing time both Sian and Chris were having during the morning at Apton Hall.

Chris’ first reaction
How amazing is Chris’ first reaction to Sian. It’s capturing moments like these which is one of the best parts of my job.

Then it was into the evening: speeches, singing waiters, sparklers after dark, the cake and a dance floor that stayed full until the end.
Looking back
Congratulations, Sian and Chris
