After a week of heavy snow, freezing temperatures and ice bound roads, it was going to be an adventure just to make it to the stunning Ashdown Park Hotel. It was a huge relief to wake up early to the sound of rain, which cleared the roads, making the trip up the A22 an easy drive.
The hotel itself was still a "Winter Wonderland" but as ever the superb staff had everything in hand to ensure a great day for Louisa and James and their guests. Its always nice to work on recommendation: i had been recommended by James' brother Dan and his wife Claire, who's wedding i photographed in Winchester a couple of years ago.
Louisa arrived in a 4x4 just in case and following an emotional ceremony, everyone enjoyed the dramatic interior of the chapel under a huge Christmas tree.
Unfortunately, the heavy rains returned preventing us going outside but despite this i still managed to create some beautiful images.
This image was taken in the evening, after the meal with the only light source being the chandelier above Louisa.
great shots Pete looks like you have sussed that car window shot.. Love the car stairs pose to.
ReplyDeleteExcellent.
Thanks Nicky. i might copyright the car window shot. The shot of Louisa on the stairs at night is possibly my favourite posed image of the year.
