A Fun-Filled Family Portrait Session
One of the highlights of the day was the relaxed portrait session in the grounds of the pub.

The open outdoor space provided the perfect backdrop for candid photographs, allowing the couple to simply enjoy the time with their guests while I snapped away in the background.
