We love the sea, and we love Southwold, so we were happy to return with Rebecca and Bobby on a glorious afternoon in August. It never feels right to us to just feature the sea as a background, so we will always encourage our clients to get a little wet when we head to the beach on a pre wedding shoot!
Thankfully, despite it not being too warm, Rebecca and Bobby went for it – as did Tom! – making for a particularly fun sequence of laughter and sea spray!
We’re not going to lie, we were looking forward to seeing Megan and Scott again after seeing them at Megan’s sister Sophie’s wedding in December, but we were most excited about meeting their pug Neville, and we weren’t disappointed! Look at him! We could have just snuggled against that gorgeous face snapping away, but luckily Megan and Scott are pretty gorgeous too, and obviously love each other lots, so how could we not have turned our attention to them. This shoot, on a sunny afternoon in Southwold, is just glorious, with Neville being the cherry on top.
Those of you who have given us the pleasure of shooting your weddings will remember back to when we first met you, and we always love to hear your proposal story. We learn so much about you just hearing about it, observing your body language to each other, and usually gauge that we are dealing with two people very much in love. This didn’t happen when we met Ellie, as she came with her dad to see us as James was away working. Strangely for us, this was also the first time we met Ellie, as she had met the lovely Aimee & Sam who had covered the Hotel du Vin wedding fair for us whilst we were exhibiting at the two-day Knebworth Wedding Show. We also know Aimee & Sam make a great impression on people and Ellie was no exception, so it was fantastic she was willing to come and see us about her October wedding to James.
We finally got to meet James when we got together for their pre-wedding shoot in a gorgeously sunny Southwold during August’s heatwave, and over a scrumptious slab of cake thanks to the fabulous Two Magpies Bakery, and yes slab is the right word (!) Tom and I then got to experience that excitement hearing about them getting together and then the proposal, which happened just up the beach in front of the famous Southwold beach huts.
