This was an incredibly special wedding for me as I have known Lucy since we met at university. She and another friend and I formed "Swot Club" (that's how rock n roll my uni days were...) where the idea was that we would get together in the library to, well, swot. Only, during that time my then boyfriend was at a different university and I used to spend every other weekend travelling to see him and then just staying one more night and missing Swot Club nearly every. single. time. Still, I am now married to him, Lucy seems to have forgiven me and I got a good degree so silver lining...

Anyway, Russ and Lucy are just the most delightful couple and so right for eachother. They have become a family with children from previous relationships and their own son Nate and are such a strong unit and it was SUCH an honour to be asked to capture their beautiful day.

They got married at The Bird in Hand near Reading which is near where they live and it was such a great venue with the gorgeous beamed bridal suite and beautiful reception room after the ceremony in Reading. Lucy spent hours assembling all the finishing touches and it looked beautiful. Such a wonderful day and here are the highlights...
