Pre-wedding shoot: Julie and John at Rhinefield House Hotel


On Sunday afternoon following Rosalind and Matts shoot I drove down to the Rhinefield House Hotel in the New Forest where I had been two days earlier for Gemma and Kristian's wedding.

On Sunday afternoon following Rosalind and Matts shoot I drove down to the Rhinefield House Hotel in the New Forest where I had been two days earlier for Gemma and Kristian's wedding.

Familiar territory for me of course as one of my most loved and frequent wedding venues, and I challenged myself to use some different parts of the hotel as well as some old favourites. I'd like to think I managed that, and have posted a selection of the images on here, although I have held some back ready for Julie and John's wedding in late May when I'll be using some of them again, and some with a few tweaks based on the results from this pre-wedding shoot. As a Hampshire Wedding photographer I hope to continue shooting at this lovely venue, with great staff, and of course wonderful couples.....

Julie and John were great fun, and soon relaxed into the shoot. Their wedding is going to be great fun, and I'm really looking forward to it. It will also be another opportunity to work with amazing florist Lynda Robson, from Exclusively Weddings who's work I adore.

As usual here are some of my images from the day. Hope you enjoy them.


A new location for me at the recently built complex covered in mirrors




This stone bench is so cool - I love putting my couples into this area - such lovely light and great images







The fountain - a recent favourite, and B&W which highlights the architecture as well as making this a timeless image




The avenue of trees which leads you back up from the fountain and towards the back lawn - this should have more cover in late May and be a great location for a walking shot of John and Julie




Another favourite down at the blue gates



Finally a panorama with this cool statue looking on.
