The day after was the day we had all been waiting for. The entire day had been organized by Wedding planner Celeste Rose who had thought of every last detail to compliment the day and the Bride & Groom. The guys in matching tailored suits by Anthony Sinclair I have to say were amongst some of the best dressed ushers & Bride & Groom we have ever shot. Amy in her bespoke dress by Phillipa Lepley & shoes by Jimmy Choo & make up by SMACK - Ibiza looked amazing and both were set off by the blue sky and dazzling white buildings of Hotel Atzaro. Beautiful flowers everywhere by Floristeria Virginia

Despite the pressure this job has with it I do take our position to be a very privileged one. We get to experience every moment of a wedding with the Bride & Groom and to see & capture moments that would otherwise go unseen & ultimately forgotten. To tell the story of the day using our skills & story telling abilities is a position that I treasure & live for.

A huge thank you to everyone involved in this part of the wedding celebrations of Amy & Carl. It has been a joy to be a part of your events over the last few weeks & great fun,  I think we have created some beautiful memories for you that I hope you will treasure for years to come.

A huge thank you as always to my wife & team for allowing me the space to be creative.

Here are some of the images from the wedding day celebrations: Imagery wise this is a long blog post but it's worth it! Enjoy the story...

In a unique bespoke dress by Emma Victoria Payne Amy looked amazing. Equally did Carl in his bespoke suit. With flowers from The Flower Fairies everything looked very elegant & beautifully suited to the day. All expertly tied together by one of our brides & now Wedding co-ordinator extraordinaire Celeste Rose. After a wonderful meal the day finished off with a fun quiz & drinks back in the Mill. A huge thank you to everyone that made the day run so smoothly and we are very much looking forward to shooting Amy & Carl's further wedding celebrations coming up in Ibiza next week.

The day started off with us meeting David & some of the guys at The Assembly Rooms busy going through their list of jobs to do before the ceremony! After checking out the venue and hatching our shoot plan we met the guys back at the hotel and spent some time there as they were getting ready. I then left and headed up into the hills overlooking Bath to where Victoria & the girls and family were busy getting ready. What a view from the house which complimented Victoria's amazing dress & beautiful flowers by Passion.

The day ran without a hitch and after the ceremony we headed off outside with the weather holding for 20 mins to do some shots of the newly married couple. It was great fun and we used the local architecture near to the Assembly Rooms to our advantage. Also to mention the beautiful cake by Bath Babycakes.

After the family groups we headed inside just as the rain started to spit! Straight into the dancing and evening celebrations. A big thank you to not only the Bride & Groom but to their family & friends that made the day such a joy to be part of.

Here are some of the images from the day & night:

Yes it was cold which didn't give us too much time outside but in the few mins that we had we managed to get some lovely images of the couple to compliment the interior imagery. The party and celebrations continued into the night and was a joy to document. A huge thank you to Caron & Jay and all involved in the wedding celebrations.

The rain falling didn't help our plans but as if by "last wedding" magic the rain stopped after the ceremony and gave us a 30 min window to get everyone outside & work very quickly! Becks looked amazing in her beautiful dress & Neil looked very sharp in his tailored suit. With beautiful sparkly favours, great casino & a fantastic singer singing all the old " Frank" tracks the evening was a huge success. There was even some "Gangnam" moves for good measure!

A huge thank you to them for making the day so much fun and a joy to end the year on! Here are a few images from your wedding day:

We knew we were going to have to work fast on this day as although it was a beautiful day it was bitterly cold and the ceremony wasn't until 2.30pm. Giving us a little time outside before the light went. Julie & Andrew both looked fantastic and so they should, they own Novak's Wedding Dress & suit empire here in the North West. We managed to get them outside for some pictures as the light was fading, it was worth the cold as the light was beautiful, with a little flash added to keep the background and show off the amazing setting of this Winter wedding.

A huge thank you to Julie & Andrew for putting up with the cold and for giving us some time outside to get the shots we needed!

It was great to be part of your day , here are some of the images from the day & night:

With the church only being a few miles away the wedding was pretty close together always making it easier. With hair & make up being done by Zan Atkinson, our usual BHP stylist I knew that Beth was going to look stunning and she didn't disappoint. The day carried on without a hitch. A beautiful moment in the church was when I noticed a beautiful butterfly on the window of the church, Beth's father sadly is no longer with us but the presence of this butterfly I am sure was a sign that he was there watching!

A big thank you to all that made the day so successful and here are a few images from the day:

The wedding took place at Swancar Farm Country House , only a couple of miles from Woolaton Park where we stopped for some pictures after the ceremony.The day ran very smoothly and the couple looked fantastic complemented by their vintage cars! As the light faded we managed to take some shots around the farm before heading in for the reception. The couple delighted the crowd with a great first dance followed by Kellie singing with the band! It was a great day , filled with fun & beautiful touches.

Here are some images from the day:

A huge heartfelt thank you to the Davis family. It was great fun to be there on the day and photograph everyone on such an important day for Alexander & his family.You certainly made us feel very welcome and the day went without a hitch. We were very lucky with the weather with a few spots of rain threatening to take the drinks reception indoors but the wind blew a little and it passed allowing everyone to enjoy the time on the terrace overlooking Hyde Park.The celebrations continued into the night with much dancing and entertainment.

Here are some images from the reception at The Mandarin Oriental Hotel in London.
