Spring Wedding at Normanton Church, Oakham
I always feel that photographing weddings is a privilege but when we were asked by my childhood friend Natalie to document her wedding day, I was over the moon. Regular readers may remember Natalie & Darren's pre wedding photoshoot back in 2021 and now I am delighted to share a selection of photographs from their April 2022 wedding day.
Natalie is known for being extremely organised (she is the queen of spreadsheets) so there was never any doubt that she would pull off an amazing wedding, It truly was an amazing day.

Despite a blustery day playing havoc with Natalie's fringe, we took the opportunity to take photographs with the stunning Normanton Church making the perfect backdrop and it was fantastic to see the beaming smiles on both Natalie & Darren's faces. A truly magical day for an amazing couple.

Wedding Videography by Luke Granger Photography
Natalie & Darren chose to add videography onto their booking with us here at Luke Granger Photography, however they requested that we take a slightly different approach which we were happy to accommodate. Requesting a combination of our usual cinematic style, paired with a more raw, home movie style, Natalie & Darren's wedding video features many special moments of their day at length, alongside their ceremony & speeches in full. A beautiful film, for the couple to watch together, whenever they wish.
With Thanks
To the suppliers who made the day fantastic for ourselves as the photography team but also for our wonderful bride and groom, Natalie & Darren.
