Victoria & Luke’s Intimate Wedding at Manor of Groves

I’ve lost count of the times I’ve captured a wedding at the Manor of Groves now, but no matter how many times I come back, it’s always an amazing time!!

Styled Shoot at The Hertfordshire Golf and Country Club

Second styled shoot of the year and it was beautiful weather yet again! This time the shoot was up at The Hertfordshire Golf and Country Club.

And the vendors absolutely smashed it!
