Lauren & Tom | Engagement | Cannock Chase, Birmingham

Thanks to a recommendation from a mutual friend in Birmingham, Lauren gave me a call earlier this year and asked me to be her and Tom’s wedding photographer in October (this month!!). After a few weeks of correspondence, the date was booked and I’ve been looking forward to photographing Tom and Lauren’s wedding at Moor Hall Hotel & Spa in Sutton Coldfield ever since.

Included in every wedding collection is a complimentary engagement photo shoot. This is valuable time to get to know my couples and for them to feel comfortable in front of a camera before their big day! When it came time to schedule Lauren and Tom’s engagement photos we debated on locations. Lauren and Tom are a very down to earth couple who feel most comfortable when they’re dressed casual and in the great outdoors. With a combined love for camping, traveling and the outdoors it seemed only fitting to choose Cannock Chase, located just north of Birmingham between Stafford and Walsall, for their photo shoot!

We arrived at Cannock Chase about one hour before sunset when the light was perfectly golden. The sunlight poured through the trees and created amazing halos of light and shadows. We took a slow walk through the woods and the light seemed to be perfect wherever we turned. I don’t think we could have picked a better location at a better time for natural, bright and beautiful images!

Lauren and Tom will be wed this October at Moor Hall Hotel & Spa in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham! They have booked my 12-hour collection which includes 12 hours of wedding photography, a second photographer and a 10×10 custom fine art album. Promo video and photos of the albums will be coming to the website soon!
