QUIRKY WEDDING AT MILLING BARN IN THROCKING – LIZZIE AND GARETH

QUIRKY WEDDING AT MILLING BARN IN THROCKING – LIZZIE AND GARETH

 

IF YOU LOVE DINOSAURS THEN YOU’LL BE INSPIRED BY THIS QUIRKY WEDDING!

Lizzie and Gareth got married at the rustic Milling Barn, Throcking. It was a super fun Quirky wedding, with dinosaurs all over the tables and fun goody bags to keep guests entertained.

THE CEREMONY

The ceremony took place in a stunning room and was decorated with fairy lights, which was lovely. The ceremony included a beautiful reading. It was a romantic occasion, full of happiness.

After the ceremony, we had a confetti aisle, which was so much fun, and I got some really special photos of the confetti moment. The weather at this Quirky wedding was glorious, it was a beautiful day.

THE QUIRKY WEDDING

The reception was held at the same venue. The venue is perfect for weddings because it’s so cosy and relaxed, and it’s got such a stunning vibe, especially in the main room where the ceremony took place.

For the reception, the couple had organised a cocktail bar for their guests, and everyone had so much fun. Guests were then called for dinner, which was a meat feast – it was delicious.

Venue :- Millng Barn

 

ADVICE FROM THE COUPLE

I loved this Quirky wedding so much. If you’re getting married and looking for a wedding photographer, get in touch.

Here is Lizzie and Gareth’s story in photos.


Engagement Photography North West London Harrow

Bhav and Kirk got married in August 2010, so it was just fitting we turn the time back and went back to their wedding venue to get some anniversary photos. I went to their wedding and it was so amazing. We absolutely got smashed and danced till the early hours.

I have known Bhav for more than 12 years now and during this time she got married and now lives with her husband and her two gorgeous girls in North London.

 

When Bhav messaged me she would like to gift a photoshoot to her husband I was so excited and of course, was happy to capture this moment. With the social distancing in place, we were mostly shooting from afar. I have some images to show you here, please enjoy them and leave a comment if you wish too xx

Engagement shoot at the Painshill Park in Surrey

Jaydeep and Simran’s engagement shoot.

 

I really enjoyed the shoot here at the Painshill park in Surrey with Simran and Jaydeep.

It was such an easy shoot as the chemistry between these two was magic. SImran giggles away throughout the session and Jaydeep was only admiring how happy Simran was at the Park. We managed to use the full area of the location in the amount of time we had.

 

The couple had an outfit change mid way through to add more to the variety of the shots we had. We also managed to raise a glass of Champagne at the pop up bar in the Park.

Last month I was in Brick lane, Barbican and Angel area in London for an elopement. It was a dream come true as I am in London all the time and I finally got to photograph in this beautiful city I love. I mean who wouldn’t want a doughnut on their wedding day and a burger for dinner! It does not get trendier than this.


FAQs on Family Outdoor photography session

Where will we take our family portraits?

I love working on a location, nature has so much to offer. I love taking seasonal images. Autumn, Winter, Spring, Summer! such beautiful colors and flowers. I will set up a skype call and we will discuss this beforehand and select a location that you love. I tend to work mostly outdoors and in natural light, as it will give us a great variety of backdrops on nature we can use.

What should we wear?

Oh!  you need to be just as comfortable as you can With little kids running around actively and getting dirty in mud you plan the outfits that you are happy to be walking around in. We do tend to stop and have one outfit change as this helps add more color to the shoot. I will also send you a Pinterest board to give you an idea of what to wear depending on the season we are in

What locations do you cover?

I travel up to a 50-mile radius from my place HA1, and have shot at places like Gunnersbury park, Painshill Park, Regents Park, Bushy Park Holland park, and many more! 

We are looking for a mixture of candid and posed family photos. Can you do both?

Of course, I love the documentary style and capturing the images in a natural way. You cannot fake a natural smile! with kids, natural emotions are best captured when they are not aware of it.  I take some posed images too, so if you have any poses in mind I am happy to incorporate. 

When will our photos be ready, and how many will we receive?

The process takes up to  3 weeks, I edit the best 50 of the gallery and send over the link for you to choose from the batch. You can either choose 10, 20, or all. my packages are on the Family Prices page that will help you choose the best price for you.

Can we bring along the family pet?

Oh, I love pets, Dogs, Cats, Bunnies, please bring them as long as it is safe for them! 


2020 YEAR ROUND UP FROM ROSHNI PHOTOGRAPHY

SO it’s been a crazy one right? 

My 2020, or should I say our 2020 as we the members of this planet were all in this together. I started 2020 with hope and faith that I will get more than 30 weddings booked and will have a great third year in weddings. But it was all overturned. Yes, there were disappointments and frustrations, but also a chance to pivot my business into something else. Having done family photography and product photography, I turned to another genre of photography.

 

Personally being away for my family, alone in The Uk, i have been is a very different situation from most. Amount of times I wanted to hop on the plane and just travel back home are too many. I felt anxious for months as I was constantly thinking about my mother and my aunt who are at high risk.  I was not prepared for anything like this.  I have been away from my family for 16 years but this was different. Had all the support from my partner. Still feeling so alone and helpless as i could not go back home to look after them. Thank fully they all are doing well in all possible ways.

WEDDINGS IN 2020 in a nutshell

Some of the weddings that I really enjoyed this year : 

Will and Hollie’s wedding at the St James’s Church- Gerrads Cross.

 

Booking this wedding in 2019, I was really looking forward to kicking off my 2020 business year with Will and Hollie’s wedding at the St James church at Gerard cross. THIS WAS THE ONLY FULL DAY WEDDING IN 2020!

 

I loved every moment of the day. Will’s father who conducted the wedding was absolutely amazing. The entire day was filled with love and laughter and speeches that brought tears to my eyes. Hollie’s dress was the highlight of my day and so was the car she rolled into.

Birhan’s wedding at the old Marylebone Town hall, 

 

AND HERE IS WHERE IT ALL STARTED. A new era of weddings, a new way of living and adjusting to the new ‘normal’

 

A day before we went into lockdown. I was lucky enough to shoot Birhan’s wedding at the Old Marylebone town hall. We were just starting to learn how to social distance. That feeling of anxiousness whilst in public and on the underground was starting to sink in in a lot of us. The Wedding was a pretty small affair as only 15 people were allowed in the room. Talking to the management at the town hall, it seemed the weddings in march and months onwards were starting to postpone and cancel due to uncertainty.

Nikki and Paul’s weddings at the Beaconsfield Registry office

 

Nikki and Paul got married with even smaller number of guests…. only their parents. It was a really beautiful ceremony and we then went to The Waterside Inn,Ferry Road, Bray, Maidenhead

 

The day was so sunny and bright , perfect for a drink outdoors and a nice lunch .

Elise and Gisle’s weddings at the Danson House, Danson Park, Danson Road, Bexleyheath

 

Elise and Gisle are actually also doing their wedding vow renewals next year!. Which i really cannot wait for. I really had such a great time photographing this intimate affair at the Danson house, one of many small weddings i photographed , and the joy was just as vast for everyone present. We also had a live streaming on site for the families that could not attend the wedding. I am so honored I was the part of these beautiful moments even though the year did not turn out to be the way we desired.


York House Weddings

Wedding at the York House, Twickenham  

Laura and Herbie got married at the York House in December just before the new years eve. Marking 2019 as their wedding year with their friend and family present. I had a pleasure shooting their wedding and I loved every bit of it.

 

Laura looked every bit gorgeous in her white backless dress with faux fur winter coat to complete the winter look. Herbie opted for a black tie suit with best men to match to black and white theme of the wedding.

 

Here are some images form the wedding which I am so excited ot share with you!


Top tips for having your Pets at your wedding,London Photographer

Top 5 tips if you are having your pets at your own wedding!

  1. Get a sitter for half day!. i am sure there will be someone in the family happily obliged to look after them, but you want everyone to have fun so get a professional to look after them.
  2. Include your fury babies at your bridal shoot. I love getting these shots as this will be the moments you will get to spend before you get hitched
  3. Have at least 3 people at 3 different times of the day to look after them. Its so easy for someone to get stuck with the doggies, but you want everyone to have fun equally.  Have 3 people look after them at different times of the day so everyone get to get involved equally
  4. Have the doggies get ready with you before you put on your dress. My last bride had some time before she put on her dress to brush the dogs and put some bow ties and hair pins. They look absolutely gorgeous plus I got the capture these moments too!
  5. Are they going to be the ring bearers? How exciting! Have your bridesmaids escort them on the isle so they don’t go running free. This is was any last bride Jacquelyn did too. See her gallery here!

This does not have to stop you and your family from marking your wedding in 2020. This Small Intimate wedding at the Old Marylebone Town Hall London proved we can still celebrate love in a smaller scale and then next year we can have a big celebration.

 

Birhan opted for Old Marylebone town hall with her intimate groups of people who attended the ceremony. Iowas in the awe of how beautiful the day went.

I never miss an opportunity to capture some group shots too, we also were able to try out the social distancing group shot on the stairs of the Town Hall.
