Had a fantastic time with Katie & Aidan on Easter Saturday for their pre-wedding shoot.  As they both live in London but are coming home to good old Yorkshire to tie the knot we agreed on the very lovely Brimham Rocks which is situated near Harrogate as a location.  I loved the contrast of the rugged rocks against Katie & Aidan’s very funky outfits – love love love the polka dot dress !!

As well as spend a bit of time in front of the camera in preparation for the big day, Katie & Aidan were also keen to capture an image to use for their wedding invitations.  We were so so lucky with the weather and although wellies and umbrellas were needed from time to time we were rewarded with some stunning light to work with.  Other hazards included Easter egg hunters as it was full on Easter Action across the park!

Katie & Aidan’s big day is in September and I can’t wait – it’s going to be a lovely marquee reception with tons of personal touches.  I’m also looking forward to meeting Aidan’s sister – the very talented Sinead Jenkins who lives in New Zealand.  I’m very honoured that Sinead has trusted her little bro’s big day to me!  I’m going to have the same issue next September when my brother-in-law will be tieing the knot – it’ll be really hard to not have camera in hand but sometimes the experience of being there and taking part is just all too important….

Why I love my job…

November 24, 2009

One of my favourite moments in my job is presenting my clients with their finished wedding album and having the priviledge of sharing that moment with them.  Although the images have often been viewed many many times up to that moment it’s amazing what an impact the finished article has – seeing images professionally printed and pulled together in page layouts that really tell the story of the day.

So it was fantastic to catch up with Alison & Rob at the weekend who’s wedding I photographed in Harrogate at the Sun Pavilions in July.  They had chosen a beautiful leather album handcrafted in England (I don’t believe in shipping in albums from the other side of the world when we have lovely options on home soil) with simple black pages and black matts featuring a white key line to outline each image – it looked lovely and really complemented  the style of their wedding.

Since coming to pick the album up from the studio Alison has been back in touch with a lovely message – “I just wanted to say thank you so much for our gorgeous album. It’s even better than I had hoped. You were a real star all the way through the process and I’ll be recommending you to everyone I know!”
