Titled: John Paul ODonnell is a Fanhams Hall Wedding Photographer based in Hertfordshire. My natural and relaxed style using skill and pro lighting.

I was recommended to Adam and Richard after they met the Head Chef at Fanhams Hall who very kindly recommended me. They then got in touch and saw a same sex wedding online that I photographed at Fanhams Hall and fell in love with the photos. We didnt actually get to meet until the day itself but as soon as we did we got on so well.

“Thanks you so much JP! These look brilliant. everyone was commenting on how great you were at putting people at ease. Cannot wait to see the full set! Richard and Adam”

When you first meet Richard and Adam you see straight away how perfect they are together. As you will see from the pictures below they both really got into the photos. Richard and Adam both got ready at Fanhams Hall, and decided to hold their ceremony in The Long Gallery. After the ceremony they headed down into the Library for their reception drinks.

With the help of Chris one of Adams Groomsmen we all headed out into the heart of Fanhams Hall for one big photo. I then shot the main pictures of the two of them together with the help of their grooms maids Elsa and Mimi. The shoot went really well, it was a bit frosty but this didnt stop us getting into the main parts of Fanhams Hall. I then shot the group shots with all the friends and family before we headed into The Great Hall for the meal.

After an amazing meal and some brilliant speeches Adam and Richard chilled with all their guests as the England World Cup Game was finishing. Sadly we lost the football but this didn’t deter the guests from having a great time. This was one of the best groups of people to photograph on the dance floor. It was solid all night and even when i squeezed in for those dancing shots I had to muscle in and create some space.

Now it was time to get that Final Image, I did two main shots for this. I shot an overhead picture using the main staircase and then finished with the final picture of Adam and Richard in the Fanhams Hall Courtyard (last picture below).

Brilliant Day and Great people!
