Calke Abbey Riding School Wedding Photographer
Becky & Paul – this was a high class wedding! Gorgeous clothes, stunning location, classic car and a beautiful couple. It could be a bond film! Becky and Paul both work in film – Becky in costume design, and I think it really shows with the look she has put together. It is super classy – and as a result I think a lot of the Black and White photos really stand out for me.
Calke Abbey is a Grade I listed National Trust building near Ticknall and bordering Staunton Harold Reservoir in Derbyshire. It has stunning grounds (you could probably photograph 100 weddings there and come back with something different each time), a deer park, and the light in the Riding School is always so sweet and full of character. The whole event was styled and planned by the lovely ladies at Ivy House Weddings
The ceremony took place at St Helens’s Church in Etwall. I think it’s quite rare to find somewhere that allows a dog to take part – so props to the people at St Mary’s for letting it happen. Going back even further in time – Paul got ready at their house, whilst Becky got ready in the family home.
Whoosh forward in time and there was a night of dancing and partying (all will be covered)
