Rhiannon & Dragos

Golden Hour at Freshwater Bay, Isle of Wight.

Rhiannon and Dragos’ pre-wedding shoot at Freshwater Bay on the Isle of Wight was an utter joy. The summer evening was busy, and the bay was bathed in beautiful light. To avoid curious, watchful eyes, we ambled along the beach toward deeper shingle and fewer people.

Rhiannon and Dragos had outfits that perfectly echoed the colours of the evening. They danced, shimmied, and laughed their way through the photoshoot. Because the couple focused solely on each other, I was free to capture the beautiful essence of their relationship.

Towards the end of the shoot, we worked on a few slightly more directed images, which was really fun. Dragos particularly loved having the opportunity to show off his impressive parkour skills! We can’t wait to capture their wedding next Summer.

Just Warming Up

Pre-wedding shoots are fun little photoshoots that are included with many of our wedding photography packages. We love them because they give us all a chance to get to know each other and for you to be comfortable in front of the camera in a relaxed and informal setting before the excitement of your wedding day and all that it entails. They give the two of you, as a couple, the opportunity to create images that showcase your relationship in a way that is completely yours.
