Jemma and James // The Hundred House Wedding, Shropshire
I first met Jemma many moons ago when we were both temping for the NHS. I had a stash of coffee bags in my desk drawer (whatever happened to coffee bags?!), she had a stash of fig rolls in hers. You could say we were destined to be friends. Jemma is the kind of person...
DEMI AND OWEN // Pim Hill Barn Wedding, Shropshire
