Wedding at the Reid Rooms-Essex wedding photography | Johanna and Nicholas

On a chilly winter morning I could be found making my way to The Reid Rooms in deepest darkest Essex for the very Christmassy wedding of Johanna and Nick. A clear sky and a nip in the air were all good omens for a bright, crisp winter event with the potential of decent light till at least 3.30pm.

I was not disappointed either! Although cold by most standards Johanna and Nick gritted their teeth and got on with the picture taking, not complaining once. In fact I think I shivered more than they did, even with all the flying around that I tend to do. There was a distinct vintage feel to some of the events....from big red balloons, old fashioned sweetie stall and even a change of dress for Johanna later in the evening to something that paid homage to the 50's.

This was my first visit in years to shoot some wedding photography at The Reid Rooms and I enjoyed it immensely. You two were stars on the day and I hope you enjoy this little selection of images. It was a real pleasure to be a part of your day! Feel free to post a link to your friends and add any comments at the bottom. Bets wishes, Phil.
