Hertfordshire Lakeside Wedding Photography - Francesca & Daniel get married at Micklefield Hall

“Jack photographed our wedding last month and we fell in love with the photos instantly. We were all in tears whilst looking at them as we couldn’t believe how beautifully Jack had captured the day (and we barely noticed he was even there!)”

— Francesca & Daniel

Micklefield Hall is one of my favourite wedding venues and I've been lucky to photograph loads of great weddings there this summer. I loved Francesca and Daniel's wedding there earlier in the summer. The weather was perfect which allowed them to really take advantage of the beautiful grounds. As a documentary wedding photographer, wondering around a beautiful venue looking for moments to capture as the sun sets is my idea of heaven.

Francesca and her bridesmaids got ready in the new bridal suite complete. Champagne was drunk, the finishing touches were added to the makeup and hair, dresses were put on and selfies were taken. Meanwhile, the guests started to arrive outside as Daniel and the boys helped each with their button holes.

When everyone had found their seats down at the temple by the lake, Francesca was escorted through the rose garden by her proud dad. After a stunning waterside ceremony, the couple walked through a bubble line (rather than confetti!) and led the guests to the reception on the lawn by the hall. As a documentary photographer I just love this part of the day - getting lost in the crowd finding special little moments to capture.After the wedding breakfast in the great barn, the guests spilled back out onto the lawn. In the late afternoon sun there was an impromptu game of cricket, a game of football and lots of guests strolling the grounds.

Here are my favourite photos from Francesca and Daniel's Micklefield Hall Wedding. I loved taking them!
