Image of the week 4
This weeks image is from the the wedding of Oliver and Alexis, earlier this month.
The wedding ceremony and reception was held at Winkworth Farm, which a lovely barn conversion within a working farm, in the middle of some very beautiful countryside.
I had the great pleasure of meeting with Oliver and Alexis last year to discuss their wedding photography and it tuned out that they were very good friends of James and Laura, a couple who’s wedding I was photographing the following month. The meeting with them was one that will stick in my mind very clearly for many years to come. The reason being, once I had left them after our meeting I drove to my fiance’s fathers house to ask for his blessing to marry her. He said yes!!!!
Oliver and Alexis were at James and Laura’s wedding the following month and it was very clear to see how much they care about each other and also what good friends they are and have.
So, fast forward nine months and their day had arrived. It was lovely to see so many faces from the wedding of their friends the previous year. The day was full of laughter, love and had the feel of a wonderful, laid back, relaxed party.
I stole the bride and groom for 5 minutes during the afternoon for a quick walk around the farm grounds and we found this old building and it just had to be a shot.
I wish Oliver and Alexis many years of happiness, love and wonderful times together.

Image of the week 3
This weeks image is, for me , a truly beautiful image. Nothing to do with me, other than I shot it.
The lady in the wheelchair is the Grandmother of the Bride. Obviously it was a very important occasion for her to be able to attend and it is quite obvious too, just how much it meant to the Bride that she was there.
I love the tenderness between the two of them and the quite obvious pride on the face of the Brides Grandmother.
Clever shots are all very well and good, when they have a reason and, more importantly, where they necessary. The thing I love about this shot, is that it cuts through all of the styles, fads, trends etc. and reminds me that at the end of the day it’s human connection that makes a moment special. Put it this way, without the people, this shot would be nothing. It’s not about the dress, the venue or anything other than a genuine moment of love shared between two people.
