Norwood Park Wedding Photographer
Venue – Norwood Park, Southwell, Nottingham // Norwood Park, Southwell, Nottingham, // Chloe and Jake chose the incredible Nottinghamshire venue of Norwood Park for their incredibly hot July wedding. Having met Chloe at a past wedding of Will & Esther back in April of 2021 when she was delivering the flowers to the house, we realised that I was booked for this stunning day! After arriving at Norwood Park I was overwhelmed by the entrance hall and the grandeur of the staircase by which Chloe had chosen for her group portraits. Their day June 17 was during the hottest peak of the year in England. This meant that we could have the outdoor ceremony which was planned by Chloe, but everyone was so hot and covered up in sun cream and sun brollies. This also meant that the groomsmen and bridesmaids were also incredibly hot in their 3 piece tweed suits and dresses respectively. When the perpetrations were complete the first to step into their dress of dreams with Jake’s daughter, who looked and felt like a princess! Next into their dresses we’re the bridesmaids followed by the stunning Chloe, who was helped in to her dress by her mum and her girl gang. Once in and all ready after a few emotional tears dad was called into the room with the most amazing reaction to seeing his daughter for the first time. Now we could make our way to the ceremony the lovely outdoor set up early awaited the arrival of Chloe and her dad. Jake was dripping in the heat yet still full of excitement and a few nerves. As Chloe arrived the whole wedding party swooned at how incredible she looked. The very short yet formal ceremony allowed for them both to say ‘i do’ but also wasn’t overly long it caused the guests discomfort in the heat. Following the ceremony, guests were welcomed back to the main house for canapés and drinks. During this time we decided because of how hot it was outside to do the group shots around the stunning staircase in the entrance hall. Once we had gathered together all groups, the family and guests welcomed the chance to chill and mingle before heading to the dining room for the speeches and wedding breakfast. Upon entering the building for the wedding breakfast guests were asked to form two lines for a confetti tunnel for Chloe & Jake to make their way though on their way to dinner. Speeches preceded dinner with words from the father of the bride, the groom and the best man. To eat, everyone had an amazing beef wellington with succulent veggies and gravy which went down so well! Because of the hot summer sun earlier in the day we had chose to use the evening sunlight for more couple portraits, making the most of the buggy hire by heading over to the other side of the gardens to photograph in the grape vines before heading back to the house for a couple of more posed portraits. The even saw the dance floor become very busy as the dj DMDiscoss Played some old school mowtown followed by some heavy kisstory bangers. // CHLOE & JAKE’S WEDDING GALLERY // SUPPLIERS – Florist: Boutique Flowers of Nottigham Cake/Dessert: Caked & Craft DJ/Band: DMDiscoss Hair: @abbies_mobilehair Make Up: @beautyby_jordanmae Catering: Norwood Park – @chefantbrooks Wedding dress: Bridal Suite – Nottingham We knew we wanted you to photograph our wedding and we are so glad you have, thank you so much again.

Izzy & Guy chose the incredible Donington Park Hotel for their wedding last September. Surrounded by the amazing Donington Park racecourse, Izzy got ready at the venue. Guy chose to prepare for the day at home before arriving to greet their guests. Once his nerves had settled after a beer or two he entered the main barn to await the arrival of his bride. As this Wedding was very personal to Izzy & Will, Izzy chose to do her own make up on her own hair knowing exactly how she wanted it. The finished look and what she wanted, was to allow herself to spend more time with her bridesmaids. This also meant she could spend time with her Mum and little boy in the main farmhouse during preparation. Wedding Details. This wasn’t the first time that I had photographed a wedding at Donington Park farmhouse. I was very aware of the old pigsty wedding breakfast room, so managed to make sure that I had time to capture all of the little details. This was created by Hollie Fox and Princess who collaborated on it for their wedding breakfast. Guy was blown away with how the the stunning simple, large wedding dress that Izzy was wearing. He looked back at her as she walked down the aisle with her dad. Her bridesmaids, page boy and floor girl walked ahead of her to be in position ready to receive her as she arrived to Guy. They were married upon the main stage with two readings from Guys dad and Izzys sister throughout the ceremony. The short ceremony was full of love and closeness between the bride and groom, with them never breaking their hands other than to exchange rings.

This allowed us to utilise the golden hour for those stunning long shadowed warm feeling unposed couple shots. The bride and groom had requested a handful of traditional group photographs with the closest of people to them, their parents, siblings and grandparents. We complete these pre-wedding breakfast as we didn’t have too much time before we were set to move inside. The evening party was beautify arranged with their son wanting to show his best moves during the first dance. This opened the dancing up until the night ended. Grandma was showing her best shapes whist the whole of the bridal party were singing. One to never be forgotten. Donington Park Farmhouse wedding photography unposed and natural Donington Park Farmhouse is a very popular wedding venue located at Isley Walton, Derbyshire. Located closely to the Donington Park racetrack, you can hear in the distance the revving engines of the racing cars and bikes near by. The venue itself has a very close link with my photographic career as it is the first wedding venue that I had worked at when I graduated from university. I love being commissioned to work back at this venue as it can be a very challenging in the main barn with the low light availability but this always allows for the most atmospheric, relaxed wedding ceremony. Surrounding Donington Park Being surrounded with picturesque villages, many other hotels and lodges, with good linking roads, if you have too many guests there are plenty of beds in the local area for your guests. Not only that but with easy access to East Midlands airport you could be on route to your idealistic honeymoon without having to trap for more than 15 minutes to get to the airport! On the other hand, if you are honeymooning in England, the Derbyshire dales are just on the doorstep with lovely villages such as Bakewell, Chatsworth and Ashbourne to visit.
