durham wedding photographer – jill’s bridal portrait session

On Saturday, I had the pleasure of photographing Jill and John’s wedding just up the road here in Durham, so I’m pleased to now be able to share some of my favourite photos from Jill’s Rose Hill Plantation bridal photography session from a few weeks ago. Readers of the blog will know I shot another bridal session out at Rose Hill back in the summer, so it was great to be back on a beautiful, golden autumnal evening. I never like to repeat myself if possible, so we shot in totally new locations throughout the house and grounds. Jill looked amazing and we came away with some gorgeous, unique images. Seeing two of my photos printed large on fine art cotton fibre paper, matted and framed at the reception was lovely to see. Any guesses as to which ones they were? Feel free to let me know in the comments below…
