Bryony & Sam’s Wedding Day.

Today we headed over to the lovely Sopley Mill https://sopleymill.co.uk To photograph Bryony and Sam’s big day.

We arrived at the mill and headed upstairs to the Avon suite to meet the bridal party and to photograph the wedding morning.

As the grooms party turned up we headed outside for a few group shots in front of the mill, then we headed upstairs for the wedding ceremony.

Due to the rain the wedding party stayed inside the mill for group and family photos where we used lighting kit to illuminate the reception room.
