Hilarious, Heartfelt & Full of Banter | Rachel & Dan’s Bredenbury Court Barns Wedding
Some weddings are just extra special, not because of the weather or the décor (though those were fab too), but because of the people.
And Rachel & Dan? Absolute legends!!!
Their wedding at Bredenbury Court Barns in Herefordshire was non-stop laughter, cheeky banter, and surprise tears from the groom (yep, Dan… I’m looking at you 😅).
How We Met
I actually met Rachel and Dan at another wedding I photographed, and from the moment we connected, it’s been absolute comedy.
Having already spent time with them before their big day, it felt like I was shooting a mate’s wedding. And that made it all the more fun, and chaotic, and dangerous in the best way possible.
Every Moment Captured
Getting Ready at Bredenbury Court
The morning started chilled but full of buzz. Bredenbury’s setup makes it so easy for both sides of the party to get ready without any stress. Rachel was calm (but excited), while Dan was… well, adamant he wouldn’t cry. 🙃
Your Story Begins
That Moment He Cried (Sorry Dan, I Had To)
Fast forward to the ceremony. Rachel walked down the aisle looking absolutely stunning, and Dan who’d confidently claimed he’d “definitely not cry” immediately proved himself wrong.
It was such a genuine, emotional moment, and honestly, those are my favourite to capture and take the piss out of him too!
Portraits: Chaos, Laughter & Magic Light
Portrait sessions with these two? HILARIOUS. We were supposed to be getting the romantic stuff, and we did eventually but not without a lot of belly laughs and random chaos in between.
That’s the kind of energy I live for. The light, the location, and the chemistry between these two made it so easy to capture magic without it ever feeling forced.
Every Moment Captured
A Dancefloor for the History Books
When I say this dancefloor went off, I mean it. From first dance to full-on party mode, the energy was next level. Everyone was up, the moves were flying, and I lost count of how many times I was laughing behind the camera. It was the perfect end to a day full of love, laughter, and completely unfiltered joy.
