Engagement Photography Bournemouth with Corinne and David Corinne and David are getting married on Saturday 24th September at the Chine Hotel in Bournemouth, Dorset. As part of our full day wedding package we provide a free engagement shoot. The engagement shoot is beneficial for both us and our couples, as (1) it gives our couples a set of additional photos and (2) gives us all a chance to work together prior to the wedding day, we get to know the couple, what they like and don’t like and come the big day, we all know each other better and can work comfortably and efficiently. Therefore, in late August we went to Coy Pond with the couple to do some engagement photos with the couple ahead of their wedding. It was the weekend of the Bournemouth Air Show and therefore we chose the quiet location of Coy Pond outside of central Bournemouth and away from the traffic and crowds of people. The weather was warm, bright and sunny. The pair quickly relaxed in front of the camera and were a pleasure to work with. We look forward to photographing their wedding later this month. Here are a selection of photos from our engagement […] Read More
Engagement photo shoot with Richard and Laura Last weekend we had a great engagement photo shoot with Richard and Laura. The young couple are getting married later this Summer at Sopley Mill. As part of our full day wedding package we include a free engagement shoot which gives us a chance to work with and get to know the couple before their wedding so that when it comes to their big day they are as comfortable as possible in front of the camera. We went to Coy Pond for the photo shoot and the weather was warm and sunny with a bright blue sky. The engagement photo shoot is as much a learning experience for couples as it is about getting nice photos. We practised poses with the couple and talked about Laura’s wedding dress and how she could stand to best enhance the dress in the photos. We rehearsed putting the rings on so as to enable us to get a classic shot of that once in a lifetime moment. We also discussed walking down the aisle and other key moments. In reality, with all the emotion of the day, much of what we practised will go right out the […] Read More
Couple portrait photography with Raluca and Joe at Coy Pond: We had the chance to do a wonderful couple portrait photo shoot today with Raluca and Joe at Coy Pond in Bournemouth. For those who don’t know Bournemouth or Poole so well, Coy Pond is a very pretty area with the pond and gardens covering 9 acres of land. As the shoot was taking place in February, the weather was, unfortunately and expectedly, very cold! However, the sun was shining and the place was full of colour. We are so lucky in Bournemouth, Dorset and Hampshire as there are so many places of astonishingly beautiful nature and scenery. At Coy Pond there is also a lot of wildlife. There is one area of Coy Pond with a beautiful red bridge over a small stream and lots of big, bright and colourful trees all around, so we initially headed there with Raluca and Joe for a couple portrait photo shoot with them in casual, warm clothes. We then nipped back so they could get changed into a suit and dress and took a couple of portrait photos indoors. As they were feeling brave and adventurous, we then returned to Coy Pond […] Read More
