My last wedding of 2013 (unless of course a last-minute booking comes in!) took place on Monday this week - the day of the ‘great storm’. I love Woburn Sculpture Gallery weddings, a beautiful and breathtaking venue set in the Bedfordshire countryside. The house itself can be traced back to 1145 and is home to Andrew, the 15th Duke of Bedford and his family.
Well the ‘storm’ had all but blown itself out by the time I arrived at The Inn at Woburn to shoot the bride’s getting ready shots and it improved dramatically during the rest of the day, allowing us to get some killer portraits in and around the couples’ chosen reception venue. Autumn weddings are absolutely stunning if the weather is as good as it ended up being on Monday - and I’d been so worried by the forecasts up until the day before! I love to use low golden sunlight in my photography when it’s available and when I’m offered stunning grounds with deer roaming free and a venue brimming with beauty and history, I’m in my creative element!
