Sophia and Dimitri in Warwickshire
The pre-wedding shoot for Sophia and Dimitri in Warwickshire took place in the tranquil gardens of Sophia’s family home in Birdingbury. This is the same setting where they will celebrate their marriage with a garden ceremony followed by a relaxed reception throughout the property’s beautiful grounds. It is a setting full of personal meaning and charm and it was a pleasure to explore it with them ahead of the main event.
