Brookfield Barn - Hannah & Tom

Hannah & Tom’s Sunny Summer Wedding at Brookfield Barn, Sussex

What a stunning wedding day at Brookfield Barn with the gorgeous Hannah and Tom! Such a fun-loving couple who made the most of every single moment of their special day. They certainly couldn’t have wished for better weather, with the sun shining in all its glory!

I started the day photographing Hannah getting ready with her mum and bridesmaids at Birchwood Cottage, a sweet Airbnb tucked away down a quiet country lane. It was a lovely, relaxed start to the celebrations, with all the excitement building as the final preparations got underway. We then headed to Brookfield Barn, where Hannah put the finishing touches to her preparations before walking out to meet Tom. Such a special moment!

The weather was certainly something to remember. It was the hottest day of the year, during a particularly dry spell, and the blazing sunshine made for some wonderfully bright and vibrant photographs. You can really see just how dry the summer had been in the photographs we took out on the golf course, where the grass had turned a striking shade of yellow!

Despite the sweltering heat, Hannah, Tom and their wedding party were absolute stars, embracing every moment and happily venturing outside in their full wedding attire for family photographs and couple portraits. It was definitely a warm one, but the beautiful sunshine created a fantastic backdrop for their photographs, and the couple's happiness shone through every image.

Brookfield Barn was the perfect setting for their celebrations. Nestled in beautiful Sussex countryside, it's such a picturesque venue, with wonderful views and plenty of opportunities for wedding photography. Everything was hosted seamlessly, with great attention to detail throughout, allowing Hannah and Tom to relax and enjoy their day with family and friends.

From the lovely preparations at Birchwood Cottage to the sun-drenched couple portraits and celebrations at Brookfield Barn, it was an absolute pleasure to capture Hannah and Tom's wedding story.

A gorgeous couple, a beautiful venue and a summer's day that certainly lived up to its name!

Shermabury-Henfield-Sussex: Michelle and Mark

Michelle & Mark got married just a stones from where they live! Just opposite their home, hidden half a mile down a country track is St Peter’s Church, set on the bank of the river Adur. It’s one of the oldest Churches in Sussex and described in the Doomsday book, with archeologists dating the chuch back to 1135 - it’s a fascinating place to be married and special too as only a few people get married there each year. It’s also a place which holds fond memories with me as i spent some years living in the area, having spent sunny afternoons picnicking by the river. I was always curious to see a church, so far removed from anywhere and never thought i’d be asked to photograph a couples wedding!. I felt very fortunate to be asked to photograph the occasion.

Michelle & Mark only wanted me to capture a few hours of the day, some photographs at their home & at the church, with close family and friends - very intimate & wonderful.
