Hannah & Olly – Redlibbets Golf Club

Wedding

The last 6 months haven't been easy. It's really difficult to see your calendar getting emptier and emptier as the days go by. A few glimmers of light carry you through. To say I was excited to shoot Hannah and Olly's wedding was an understatement. Me and Hannah had be exchanging messages a month or two leading up to the date, organising things around the new COVID restrictions placed upon weddings, and the rearranging due to the even tighter constraints. I really feel for bride and grooms out there going through either the postponement process or having to reduce their wedding guest list. That said weddings CAN go ahead. Hannah and Olly's day at Redlibbet's Golf Club goes to show you can still have a totally awesome day even if you can only have 15 guests!

Bridal preparations were at a lovely little place in Nurstead Court. Emma was in charge of hair and makeup. From there Hannah travelled in style to Redlibbets Golf Club where there was lovely small and intimate wedding ceremony. After the formalities were completed we took off on some golf buggies (yep, that was fun!) to take some portraits before the rain set in. After the guests had eaten the heavens opened. Hannah and Olly were committed to getting some shots in the dark, so armed with an umbrella was headed out onto the golf course on the cover of darkness. In those moments we created some stunning night time portraits. Scroll to the end to view!

I wish you guys all the best for the future!
