Kirsty and Robin – a wedding at Wellington House and The Abode {sneak peek}

Often, my bookings come from word of mouth referrals for weddings often a year or even 18 months away. When Kirsty called to check my availability, she enquired if I was available for a Tuesday in July. I checked my calendar for 2015 and confirmed I was. She then told me that it was for 2014 … in only eight days. There are particular reasons why Kirsty and Robin organised their wedding in such a short time. And if you know them, you will know why. But I was honoured to be able to capture their special day – and Kirsty was such an amazingly calm bride, who sent me so much information, that I knew we would get on brilliantly. I first met Kirsty and Robin on the morning of their wedding and they are an incredible couple. Thank you so much for asking me along and I’m delighted to share your sneak peek(s) …

There’s quite a “fad” at weddings to bring along large sized balloons for the couple portraits … well, this one wins hands down!

Kirsty and Robin, thank you so, so much for making my job an absolute delight. For being so warm and welcoming and thanks to your family and friends for helping organise, cajole and encourage a flagging, and very hot, photographer! I’ll be working on your edits just as soon as I can … much love Sam xx
