Notley Abbey – Natalie + Matthew
“Frankee’s photography speaks for itself, she is incredibly talented at capturing the genuine feeling of the day, as opposed to the generic stock wedding photos. When looking through our photos we really felt that they told the story of our day.
Working with Frankee both before and after the wedding was so easy, from making the booking, having a chat before the wedding and downloading and sharing the photos. But where we were most grateful for her was during the day itself. As someone who is quite camera shy, I was worried that having a photographer there would make me feel uncomfortable, but Frankee honestly just felt like a friend. She was so lovely and calm and funny, I forgot she was there to take the photos!
I cant recommend her enough!”
Natalie and Matthew got married last month at incredible Notley Abbey, which is a beautiful venue in Buckinghamshire. It was a gorgeous day and the weather held out at just the right time for everyone to enjoy outside!
Getting ready
Natalie got ready Notley Abbey with her bridesmaids, and the atmosphere was so relaxed. The room was beautiful and had lots of space for everyone in. Matthew got ready in another part of Notley Abbey, which meant it was super easy for them both to be getting ready at the venue.
The ceremony
The ceremony was an intimate affair in a beautiful room at the venue. During the ceremony they read their own vows. It was so sweet and pretty emotional! (I nearly had tears once the father of the bride had them!).
The afternoon
The reception was out in the garden at the venue. They chose Notley Abbey because the venue has the most beautiful grounds outdoors, but is also a beautiful building inside too and they just fell in love with it. They had drinks and canapes in the afternoon, and a live band in the evening.
Natalie and Matthew’s wedding a pleasure to photograph. Everyone was enjoying themselves and Natalie and Matthew were so easy going and happy for me to sneak them off a couple of times for some portraits.
It was also a pleasure to work with the incredibly talented Dan Dolan Films on this wedding and a big shout out to my amazing second photographer for the day – Oliver Holder.
