Suffolk wedding at Belchamp Hall | Virginia and Oli

Sara Thomas — Mon, 06 Sep 2010 10:31:54 +0000

Deep in rural west Suffolk, is the fabulous wedding venue, Belchamp Hall. Virginia and Oli had a large wedding party coming from across Europe to accomodate, so a marquee in the grounds of Belchamp Hall was the ideal solution.

It was quite possibly the hottest, and brightest day of the year and you can see how scorched the ground had become over those few weeks in the early summer.

The girls got ready in the gorgeous bridal suite in a cottage in the grounds of the Hall

Although some of the local residents are voyeurs!

Virginia looked so beautiful – she reminded me of a European princess you’d see in Hello magazine

Virginia and Oli were married at Wickhambrooke Church, over the border in Cambridgeshire

Viginia’s father gave his speech in English, Spanish, French and Flemish, which was rather impressive!

After the meal as the day cooled a little, people took the opportunity to explore the grounds

Pre wedding photography | Hampstead | London

I was very excited when Dan and Judith invited me down to Hampstead in London for their pre wedding shoot. I will be their wedding photographer when they get married in Suffolk next month.

Dan proposed on Hampstead Heath, so thought it would be nice to have some photos of the two of them there.

I felt like Country Mouse being back in London again. I used to live there about 500 years ago, but I always lived in the Sarf and didn’t often venture north of the river! It was a scorching day and the Heath was very busy. We managed to find some space though and had a lovely time.

Maternity Photography in Ipswich Suffolk

Sara Thomas — Wed, 07 Apr 2010 16:52:12 +0000

It’s time to catch up on some blogging, and to start with, I am showing some beautiful pregnancy photography. Whilst I take many more and varied images during the session, I respect my clients’ privacy and only post the images they are happy to have on show.

These pregnancy photoshoots take place in the client’s own home using natural light. This means that the expectant mother is comfortable and relaxed.

I especially love this image as you can see a little foot as the baby decides to have a bit of a stretch.

It’s a lovely record of a very special time in a woman’s life and many clients choose an enlargement for their bedroom or the nursery, or select several images for an album.

The expectant father is welcome to join in.

Please contact me to book your maternity photography session or to enquire about the bump and baby package.

Teenage Portrait Photography | Ipswich | Suffolk

On Sunday I did a lovely photoshoot for my daughter’s friend. As a change from my regular studio work I decided to go low key, with a black background and dark clothes.

Here’s my little miss

And here they are together

80th Birthday Party in Suffolk

Sara Thomas — Sun, 31 Jan 2010 12:27:18 +0000

Last weekend I was invited to take some photos at a family party to celebrate the 80th Birthday of Pip, a bit of a character by the looks of things.

There was rather a lot of this going on…

I love this one

Mother’s Day Portrait Photography Suffolk

Sara Thomas — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 13:25:38 +0000

Calling all Dads! Mothering Sunday this year is on March 14th so now is the time to be thinking about a fabulous present for a special mum. Rather than the usual flowers or chocolates, why not arrange a lifestyle portrait photography session of your children and let them present their mum with a framed print, canvas or album with her breakfast in bed? If this is her first Mother’s Day, a baby portrait sitting in your own home would make a gift she will love forever.

Email or call me now to book your sitting.

Children’s portraits | Woodbridge | Suffolk

Sara Thomas — Sat, 09 Jan 2010 17:37:28 +0000

Here are some of the photos from a children’s lifestyle portrait session I did towards the end of autumn last year. I’ve waited until now to blog them as they were a surprise Christmas present for the boys’ dad. I’ve since heard that he was delighted with the photos and even had a tear in his eye as he looked at them!

This photography session took place in Elmhurst Park in Woodbridge, Suffolk.
