Norfolk documentary wedding photography, a DIY marquee wedding and the local church - Samantha & Jacob
I loved photographing Samantha & Jacob’s Norfolk countryside DIY wedding. It was a special one as the reception was in the garden of Samantha’s parents’ house, and her childhood home. And the church they married in was a stone’s throw away in the local village.
The whole reception was completely built from scratch and literally started as a garden lawn, so you can imagine the amount of work that went into it.
I started at the family home with Samantha and her bridesmaids to document the couple of hours before the ceremony, then headed just up the road to the church in Beeston-next-Mileham to photograph their church ceremony. Then we all headed back to the house for a lovely wedding reception and a big party with a string quartet for the earlier parts and a live band for the party. The first dance was epic with a choreographed routine that wowed all of the guests!
