Jeanette wanted to create a very 'Downton; styling for this photo shoot, which Emma the owner of Wroughton House was delighted with. She wanted a look created that wpuld be in keeping with the period and charm of her 17th century home which offers oodles of character and charm at every turn. Capture Every Moment was certainly not short of any details to capture both inside and outside of the house - a real beauty and so much fun to photograph!
