Longest note ever?!
When you test your wedding guests to the max with the longest note of a hymn to end your epic ceremony!
Happy anniversary Soph and Jamie 😁
Thank you St Edmunds Church Stubbington and the amazing Reverend Richard! Thank you One Forever Films for filming the day for me. Thank you Emma Moore Photography Nicola Anne Bridal Penny Lane Flowers for making the day so special 💕
Happy 2024!
Yep I know it's 1st February and not January but the last month has been super busy for us with a short break to center parcs with all the family, Pete starting his new job but then Finley and I being struck down with more illness 🙈 SO I'm celebrating a new, exciting year a month late 😆
A huge thank you to everyone who trusted me last year to film your wedding or event. It was so fun. I hope 2024 is special for you all.
I'm on maternity leave now, looking forward to welcoming Baby Washer 2 in April but will be back to work in Autumn 😁
For those getting married this year, have the best day!
Much love
Rachel

Grab your ticket go.beccapountney.com/party 👏👏👏
Vintage styled shoot
Would any couples like a free photo-shoot / video-shoot? Open to any couples - engaged, married, just started dating...anyone who is up for a laugh and would like some professional photos 😁
I am helping run an event at Furtho Manor Farm near Milton Keynes on Wednesday 4th October and am hoping to do a small but VERY FUN photo shoot prior to the event and use the photos / video for promotional purposes.
*What you get*
You'd receive edited photos / edited video for free plus free entry to the event which includes a meal from a food truck plus dancing to a Ceilidh band!
The photo-shoot is all about the fun and focusing on marketing the wedding reception rather than the wedding ceremony. We are hoping to get photos / footage of you together at sunset / dusk as well as having fun together with lawn games plus the dancing in the evening.
We would also look to supply outfits for you both and hair / make-up stylists too.
*What we need from you in exchange*
Attendance at Furtho Manor Farm from 3pm - 9.30pm
Join in the dancing in the evening
Sign permission forms for both myself and Dave Hadley (the photographer) to use the photos and video for promotional purposes for our businesses and any other businesses included in the shoot.
Please note travel / expenses to Furtho Manor Farm are also not included and will need to be at your own cost.
If you fancy it then drop me a message. If you know of anyone who would love some photos then please do comment / tag / share - I've made it public now! Dave and I are very inclusive too so we are looking for any kind of couple / family from any background, any gender, any look - just people who are looking for some fun photos!
Video of a previous styled shoot I filmed that was so much fun!
Thank you!
Rachel

Sneak wedding film - Ads and Soph in Malta!
After my 'anything is better than nothing' post earlier this week I asked my cousin if he minded if I shared the highlights and he said absolutely, as he and Sophie Louise Nickelson love it...so here it is, my most sneaky wedding film yet 😆
As you can see, it's a bit different to my 4K wedding video package but it's better than nothing! Epic drone footage from the lovely Jamie, thank you so much 👏
If you've got the fear of missing out then drop me a message, I'd love to film your special day and capture all the memories for you to treasure forever...goosebumps guaranteed!
Also, we LOVE how inclusive Maltese civil ceremonies are 🥰

Jennifer and James wedding highlights film at Lains Barn
"The highlights film is our favourite of all, it made me a bit emotional to watch!"
I love hearing this kind of feedback! The highlights film is also my favourite because it's the perfect summary of the day, ideal for sharing with family and friends.
Jennifer and James' autumn wedding at Lains Barn was so fun! I love love love filming a Ceilidh band because there is guaranteed laughter and chaos with everyone trying to follow the steps 😆 Ceilidh Tree were brilliant fun and I think it's safe to say Jennifer and James and all their guests had a laugh!
It was wonderful working alongside Tom from The Falkenburgs via Big Day Productions too who took some gorgeous photos...watch this space for a blog post with some of the photos!
Shout out to the amazing florist Ann Laing Flowers, Jennifer and James particularly loved the arrangements around the well in the courtyard - they looked gorgeous!
Jennifer looked beautiful in her dress from Proposals Bridal Studio which was altered by Sew Bridal and Alterations. I love the lace detail.
Not only did the couple hand make all the ceramic pots for the flowers, Jennifer also made the wedding cake herself - amazing! It was delicious too!
If you're getting married this autumn or winter and want all the special moments captured, I still have availability. Drop me a message and we can chat!
Much love,
Rachel
