Swallows Oast Wedding Photography, Ticehurst ~ Katie + James

I first met James nearly two years ago in Glasgow when I was photographing a wedding for Amanda and John. He hadn't even proposed by that point but I'm delighted that he and Katie had already decided that they were going to use me as soon as they were engaged! After a lovely engagement shoot in Dunorlan Park in Tunbridge Wells near their home I was really excited about the wedding which was taking place in the gorgeous main barn of Swallows Oast. Despite driving down from London in hammering rain, as soon as I arrived at Katie's parent's house the sun came out and stayed out all day, although too late to go ahead with the ceremony outside. It felt like a summers evening as after the meal everyone gathered outside to throw confetti and for katie to toss the bouquet to the usual female excitement and male nervousness!

You can view the whole wedding album and purchase images here. The password is James' surname.

And lastly a warm thanks to Amanda and John whose wedding I photographed in Glasgow nearly two years ago on the same day as the World Bag Pipe Championships, which was taking place in the park opposite! They did a beautiful reading for Katie and James and it was wonderful to see them again.
