Sneak Peek: Sami and Ryan's Wedding at The Oak Barn

GOOD LORD I AM SO LUCKY TO GET TO DO THIS FOR A LIVING!

Honestly, how do I get such amazing couples?!

Usually I aim for 50-80 photos in a sneak peek, yet when I went through and chose the shots I wanted, there were over 150. This is a true testament to how insane this wedding was.

Sami and Ryan have the perfect balance of chill and enthusiasm and are just the best kind of people. You straight up can’t not have a good time around them. Not only are they exceptionally amazing and lovely people - THEY ALSO LOOKED FLY AF.

This was the third wedding I have shot from this utterly raucous friendship group after having shot the charming, gorgeous Szenders’ and the think-they-are-models-just-because-they-are-on-my-business-card Williams’. I absolutely love it when this happens as it means that everyone is already comfortable with my presence and I can get some hilarious shots! That being said, this lot really don’t need encouraging.

Huge shout to my favourite wedding band of all time, Bootleggers Turn for absolutely nailing it all day and the same to Piglet Cottage for giving me the biggest, most extravagant wedding feed of all time! Big shouts to the rest of the vendors also, it was a serious vendor lineup!

As is so often the case, I have so much more to say about this beautiful couple and their unreal day but I am approaching hour 11 of working on this peek after not getting back to Bristol until nearly 1am last night. My eyes have gone square and I am not even sure that these word things are making any sense any more.

Sami and Ryan - Yesterday was amazing, you are amazing, I hope you think these photos are amazing.

Thank you everyone for having me! Who is up next then?
