Rosie & Kane finally say 'I Do' after 10 years of engagement!
I had the pleasure to meet these childhood sweethearts for their pre wedding shoot with their two gorgeous girls in the autumn, at Jephson Gardens in Leamington Spa. It was truly a treasure to hear their love story and I couldn't wait to capture their winter wedding at one of my favourite venues, Blackwell Grange, nestled into the Cotswolds countryside.

Preparing for a Magical Winter Wedding at Blackwell Grange
There’s something undeniably enchanting about winter weddings, and this one at Blackwell Grange was no exception. The prep room buzzed with activity as the bride’s hair and makeup were expertly done. Friends and family popped in, offering hugs, sharing stories, and shedding a few happy tears. The atmosphere was filled with love and anticipation. Capturing the bride’s transformation – from her first moments in the prep room to the final touches of her wedding gown – was a privilege. Every detail, from the delicate lace of her dress to the sparkle in her eyes, told a story of excitement, love, and a touch of nervousness.
Capturing Romance in the Crisp Winter Air
As the ceremony concluded and the celebrations began, I stole a few precious moments with the newlyweds for a private photo session amidst the enchanting winter landscape of Blackwell Grange. The bride's gown stood out beautifully against the wintry backdrop, its intricate lace details and flowing fabric creating a stunning contrast with the frosted surroundings. The groom, looking dapper in his suit, complemented her perfectly. Together, they radiated warmth and love, making them the focal point of this serene winter tableau.
Heartfelt Speeches in the Candle-Lit Room
As the sun dipped below the horizon, the festivities moved indoors to the heart of Blackwell Grange – a beautifully intimate, candle-lit room that provided the perfect setting for the evening's speeches. The speeches in the candle-lit room at Blackwell Grange were a beautiful blend of emotion, humor, and heartfelt sentiments. The soft, warm light created an intimate setting that made each word and gesture even more meaningful. These moments of connection and celebration were a perfect reflection of the love and joy that defined this winter wedding.
