This was a wedding that took me to the North Norfolk coast and wow does it make for a stunning wedding location!

Joanna and Nathan had booked me over a year in advance and I had really been looking forward to photographing their day! Preparations for the girls began at Joanna’s parents house in North Wooton, whilst the boys got themselves suited and ready at the wonderful Briarfields Hotel in Titchwell. The wedding ceremony itself was held at Our Lady of Perpetual Succour & St Edmund Catholic Church in Hunstanton and as we arrived the clouds that had lingered from the previous days storm parted and made way for the most perfect blue skies.

After the ceremony we headed further north and back to the Briarfields Hotel in Titchwell for the reception (if you haven’t been here before its a must visit - amazing food and beautiful accommodation). The best thing about this location is the proximity to Brancaster beach which is such a beautiful stretch of Norfolk Coastline. I was really praying for a beautiful summer day so we could make the most of the locations and get some amazing shots! After all that glorious July sunshine disaster struck though and on the evening before the wedding I drove up to Norfolk in a tremendous storm that resulted in me arriving at my relatives house a nervous wreck due to all the lightening and thunder and there were times I was sure a tornado would appear as the trees were swaying so viciously in the winds! On the morning of the wedding we woke to cloudy skies and wet roads and although I was ready for a wet wedding day, the weather gods were looking down on us all and we were blessed with a beautifully sunny day! A weird wind and rain shower did come across just as the speeches were happening - but this was perfect timing as all cleared afterwards and we headed to the beach to be greeted with dramatic skies and clouds parting with the sun beaming down over the sea. In the evening just as the band were warming up a most beautiful rainbow unfolded and emerged over Briarfields as a parting gift to the newlyweds. Perfection.

A big thank you to Joanna and Nathan for trusting me with their most precious day, and to all of their friends and family for being so lovely on the day. It really was a fantastic day x

They did it! Just over a week ago on what turned out to be a beautiful sunny day, Emily and Adam were married at the rather stunning Kings Lynn Town Hall.

Emily and Adam had been planning this day for well over a year and I had actually been to Norfolk the summer prior to do their engagement shoot. It was a team effort with family members and friends helping with cakes, make up and hair, flowers and stationary and it was lovely to see all their hard work and efforts come together to create something really special to the couple.

I arrived at the Knights Hill Hotel where make up was in full swing as Emily had five adult bridesmaids along with another five beautiful flower girls. Emily owns her own salon so she had her team of talented friends around her to help her get ready all morning. Look out for the EPIC shoes!

When arriving at the town hall I met with Adam and his two best men, Simon and Richard who were trying to relax although I think Adam would admit to being a teeny bit nervous whilst greeting guests who were arriving outside the hall. He didn't have time to get too nervous though as after a quick chat and some photos it was time to head inside as the bridal car was on it's way..

The ceremony went beautifully and the hall was packed with friends and family (107 of them I believe including their gorgeous little boy Jasper!) After they had said their "I do's" and were married we headed down to the Tower Gardens for a the first couples shots. It was blisteringly hot by this time and Adam chose to walk back to the hall even though we had arranged a car to drop everyone back at the hall!

The speeches all went down a storm, each delivering a perfect amount of emotion, tears and laughter, and even a duvet set with the best mans face on! A new one on me but it was hilarious!

The evening gave us a glorious golden hour and sunset for which we popped across the the quay for a few more couples shots before the dance floor was set and the party really got started!

A massive thanks to my partner in crime and fantastic second shooter Louise Manning, she really is a diamond to work with!

From start to finish this was such a happy, smiley and really fun day, filled with love and laughter and most importantly, sparkles and glitter!

Emily and Adam, here are just some of your best bits from that awesome day. xXx
