Skye & Laura

In gardens of blossoming Flowers

Skye and Laura chose to visit their wedding venue for their pre-wedding shoot, reveling in the opportunity to capture it during a different season. As lovers of plants, trees and all foliage, a botanic garden in Spring was ideal for them.

Ventnor Botanic Garden is beautiful all year round, but spring brings blossom and that is very special. Sadly for Laura’s very new, very white trainers, spring also brings mud! Our expedition to the nearby beach was cut short by the slippery condition of the pathway leading there. Fortunately this did not dampen the women’s spirits at all and we found a multitude of stunning spots to photograph.

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.
