Chelsea Register Office for Weddings
This is the register office for the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea,London SW3.It is located in the KingsRoad between Sloane Square and the Worlds End.
What's beyond the World's End...Well er,it'll take a red london bus to get you there; that is the Wyndham Chelsea Harbour Hotel.
More chelsea wedding photography was continued here, in the harbour and by the river.
As London and Kent wedding photographers we've noticed a Faux Pas the groom is likely to make(not the groom in the picture). So brides with long trains beware! This was part of a Greenwich wedding photography shoot.
Whilst you're in the roles of Bride and Groom you can go wherever fancy takes you. You tend to get away with things.
The new spouse needs to be fed and watered at regular intervals so begin as you mean to continue!
Kent wedding photography at Bickley manor Hotel
Spot the Bouquet
Wedding couples (and indeed wedding photographers) can find Bickley Manor between Bickley and Chislehurst stations in Thornet Wood Road. It is slightly off the beaten track which can make it more interesting for wedding photos and yet it has easy access from Bromley,Orpington,Beckenham and Chislehurst.
Wedding Photography in Middlesex
Lensbury Club is in Broom Road near Teddington. As you drive down this residential road from Teddington suddenly the road opens up to the right and you are confronted with a broad 1920s facade. With the stone entrance as a secondary focal point this makes an interesting establishing shot for the bride and groom.
Some of the unsual aspects of the Lensbury Club and Hotel provide interesting props for wedding photography. The grounds are spacious enough for a variety of wedding photos both inside and out.
And with a wedding co-ordinator who is more than helpful good wedding photography is a likely outcome.
When you turn off the main, Guildford Road into Wotton Drive you then have about a quarter of mile's drive to anticipate what the hotel will be like as I did and I wasn't even staying there. But I was taking a great interest in the various locations if only from the point of view of getting good wedding photographs. Eventually you arrive at a grand drive that leads to the hotel entrance.
The grounds offer a variety of settings to suit formal, informal or documentary styles of photography.
When I was there last the weather was fine but if it were inclement there were some good options for dry photography and maybe some ironic photographs as well!
The staff were helpful and suggested a room from which I could do an aerial group photo.
Today when Tracy Dalton was presented with her winning prize she was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a "watercolour" print depicting herself with her beloved dog Lucy.
"Watercolours" are another option for portraits provided by Charlie's Pictures and give a rather distinct look to a picture. "Watercolour" prints are not achieved simply using a click of a button but are actually created individually.
There will be regular pet portrait contests throughout the year for anyone who wishes to take part.
A winter-grey Fulham Broadway saw a splash of colour recently when Vicky and Bradley held their wedding ceremony -the event being photographed by Charlies Pictures. The officials at Fulham register office were more than helpful in seeing that everything went smoothly. Following suit, the weather which had given us almost non-stop rain all week hesitated and finally smiled down on the newly married couple.
The grade II listed Georgian building provides an interesting backdrop for contemporary wedding photography. And when a red London bus stops briefly, like the rain, to pay its respects and asks to be included in the picture it would surely be rude to say no.
With the bus on its way to its next destination so were we. Chasing a limo,chasing dreams, wedding photographer on flight path to Chiswick. A Chiswick recepion to be precise, to record meeting and greeting, toasting and cake cutting - food for thought for a long time to come.
Finally, it was goodbye to the bride and groom and out into the night gloom.
I haven't mentioned anything about Sam and Stuart's wedding yet so thought you might like to hear about it.
I loved The Burford Bridge Hotel as a wedding venue.-good choice, Sam and Stuart!
Sam and I had spoken several times but it wasn;'t 'til the wedding day that we actually met. so I was really looking forward to meeting her and Stuart. I had gathered from Sam that she just wanted everyone to have a really good time and from the photos you can see that a good time was definitely had by all!
We were really lucky withe the weather as we managed to get all the after wedding photos just in time before it began raining and we had to go indoors.
The room where the ceremony was held was very beautiful and the registrar was easy going and great to work with. There was a wonderful little gallery where you could look down upon the couple getting married which made a lovely shot.
The best man helped us out, gathering all the guests together for photographs.
Sam's nephew proved very photogenic and seemed to smile at the right time too!
Love
Ann
