Matt and Nikki – Sutton Bonington Hall, Leicestershire

Sutton Bonington Hall – I love this Leicestershire wedding venue! Beautiful interiors, wonderfully manicured grounds, warm, friendly and helpful staff and tons & tons of photo opportunities at every turn. Combine that with a wonderfully sunny September day and a great couple who were a delight to work with and you have the perfect recipe for a great wedding! Thanks to Matt & Nikki for having me as your photographer… my faves below.

Father of the Bride - Ian…..such wonderful photos to record a very special day for us all. A perfect wedding in every respect. So pleased your camera missed the antics later that evening. Thanks for sparing my blushes.October 2, 2009 – 3:32 pm

Matty - Your photos are absolutely brilliant! You really captured so much from the day that we can now see time and time again, and I can barely recall you being around us. Truly professional, sublime photographic work which helped make our day something we will never forget. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Cathy - Yet again a fantastic set of images Ian. Love how you document a situation in your images. Particularly love the image of the two spaces … one, the kitchen where the child is sitting at the table whilst the bride is putting on her make up in the hall. Every image tells a story. Brilliant.September 24, 2009 – 11:17 pm

Ruth Johnson - These are great again Ian – and mainly because they show off your skill with colour – really crisp and vibrant!October 25, 2009 – 4:31 pm
