Derby Conference CentreHow Fate Brought Them Together
Our story begins in the humble confines of a high school science class, where Sam and Connor first met. Despite going their separate ways after graduation, fate had its plans, reuniting them a decade later. Their love story rekindled from the ashes of their youth, blossomed into a beautiful, enduring relationship.
The Proposal That Sealed Their Love
The proposal was as intimate as it was heartfelt. Six weeks after welcoming their third child, a beautiful son born in August 2021, Connor asked Sam to spend the rest of their lives together, in the comfort of their own home. This moment, marked by vulnerability and profound love, was the beginning of their journey towards matrimony.
Choosing the Lens to Capture Love
I was recommended to Sam and Connor by a friend, Lauren Saddington, whose trust in my ability to capture their story through my lens was both an honour and a responsibility I did not take lightly.

Choosing the Derby Conference Centre as their venue was a decision deeply rooted in practicality and personal significance. Situated in the heart of the city, it reflected their upbringing in bustling urban environments and their desire for a location accessible to all their loved ones.
