Karen and Steve Jewish wedding celebrations took place at Pendley Manor, Hertfordshire, and despite having been a wedding photographer for longer than I really need to remember, I haven’t photographed there before, something which I’ve had to work hard convincing people, especially my wedding photographer friends. It’s a lovely venue, and Karen and Steve were looked after really well.
It had dried out about enough for just heels to sink into the grass, as opposed to one’s whole leg (it’s been that wet) and so we had a chance to break our reportage coverage of the day’s events to go outside for some portraits. Pendley Manor is famous for it’s peacocks, but despite my best efforts (peacock herding is an acquired skill…) I couldn’t get a decent shot of one with the couple. Happily I got some lovely shots of Karen and Steve without peacocks, so that’s a result!
Karen looked amazing in her dress, and I know Steve was thrilled when he looked round and saw her walking down the aisle towards him. The ceremony was touching, with lots of good humour. And talking of humour, the speeches were excellent, especially Steve’s opening remark, the response to which you can see below.
Here are a few favourites from the day. If you’d like to discuss your wedding photography at Pendley Manor, please contact me here.
