If you have been looking through the same recycled / handed down wedding magazines and books and are looking for some fresh inspiration then look no further.
Here are three of my favourite weddings blogs, with fresh images and ideas everyday.
Rock My Wedding – who featured on of my weddings in december > HERE
Whimsical Wonderland Wedding > Here
If you have read my blog before you would have seen Kate and Simon’s lovely pre-wedding shoot.
The idea behind the shoot was not only to get some lovely shots of the two of them and a chance for us to get to know each other a little before their wedding day, but also to take some images for a signing book for their guests to leave messages on the day.
The book arrived yesterday and looks amazing. We used 15 images plus the cover shot and each double page has an image one side and room for lots of messages to be written on the other side.
If you have a pre-wedding / engagement shoot booked with me, this is a perfect way to use the images.
Contact me for information and prices.
At Sharon and Alex’s reception the ongoing entertainment through the meal was to draw a message on a small canvas for the bride and groom, one 6 inch canvas per table and the winner to be announced at the end of the evening. Two tables produced such stunning works of art that Sharon and Alex declared a tie break challenge would take place.
This is the result…..The Balloon Dance…
Happy New Year everyone.
Here’s a little selection of some of my favourite shots from the last twelve months.
The cows gave plenty of entertainment !!
I love this barn !!
Yes, the groom broke his foot a week before the wedding.
Random magical shot of a flying bridesmaid.
He was almost as good as the booked entertainer !!
Gemma’s mother-in-law wore the perfect colour dress for this picture. It was another ‘break in the rain’ shot.
Gemma’s dad, what a legend !! that’s all I can say.
A moment alone is always welcome before the party gets going.
I love this shot, they are caught in a moment together, and stood in exactly the right spot.
DUDE!!!! this guy could could seriously dance !!
I love this moment, everyone went down at the same time and Kate had a giggling fit.
The bride getting the brides father dressed.
I look for spots like this, with amazing light, just step back and shoot what happens.
It always amazes me where grandfathers suddenly get their energy at 11pm at night.
She drives the car in this marriage 
… really !! she does, he can’t drive.
The most random thing that’s ever happened at one of my weddings.
It’s been an amazing year. Bring on 2012, see you soon.
This was my last wedding related shoot before christmas, so I’m glad I can share it with you now.
Kate is a massive photography fan, she found me after a recommendation from one of my commercial clients, at the same time as she found me on instagram, as I am a bit of an iphone photo app addict and she had recently caught the IG bug.
I showed Kate and Simon a recent engagement shoot at our first meeting and they decided they wanted one. We then had a problem nailing down a weekend or evening when they were available (Simon worked away a lot) and when the weather was good. The great advantage of these pre-wedding shoots is that you can choose the day, and if it’s forecast to rain we can postpone it for another day.
As the summer drew to a close, it looked like we would have to wait until the new year, then suddenly we got a break, the forecast was good their diaries were clear and on November the 5th we took a little trip to Three Cliffs bay on the Gower Peninsula. We took a stroll down to the beach followed by a short “hike” up to the castle ruins which look over the bay.
I am making a signing book for their wedding using these pictures so I can’t show you ALL of the shots, you’ll just have to see if you’re invited to their big day.
