Emma and Tim – Reading Pre Wedding Shoot

Paul — Fri, 24 Sep 2010 08:30:51 +0000

I first spoke to Emma and Tim in August of last year when they entered the competition I had running to win their wedding photography.
Emma and Tim were the fortunate couple and we recently met up in the centre of Reading town centre for a late evening photoshoot.

It’s always fun doing a session in a Town Centre, the banter between members of the public and Emma and Tim was quite amusing at times!

It’s also a good introduction to what it will feel like on the day as there will be a few more people watching what is going on!

When I see a set of doors with these colours it’s almost impossible to walk by!

Ranvir and Will – Wedding – Sri Guru Singh Sabha Reading

Paul — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 13:21:37 +0000

I recently had the pleasure of photographing Ranvir and Will’s wedding at Sri Guru Singh Sabha in Reading.
A very early start and typically British weather were outweighed by the beautiful colours and details. Our couple time on a typical Reading main road was certainly different from the location that we had planned!

Here are some of my favorites from the day

The Girls watching for Ranvir

The emotion was too much.

Lucy and Duncan – Beenham Church – Wedding

Paul — Thu, 24 Jun 2010 20:49:22 +0000

A very typical English Bank Holiday weekend saw the wedding of Lucy and Duncan.

With English weather you really never know what you are going to get, however most Bank Holidays pretty much guarantee that it is going to rain at some point!
Fortunately for Lucy and Duncan the predicted downpour managed to hold off until every one was safely ensconced in the marquee!

Here as some of my favorites from the day

Lucy and Duncan – Pre Wedding Shoot

Paul — Tue, 04 May 2010 12:47:09 +0000

A sunny day, a walk by the canal, a nearby pub, pretty much the perfect ingredients for a Pre Wedding Shoot!

Cath and Gregor – Wedding – Bearwood College

Paul — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 15:42:46 +0000

The Wedding of Cath and Gregor was held at North Harrow Methodist Church followed by a Reception at Bearwood College.
Helped by glorious but cold weather, great music, an impromptu unrehearsed performance from a scratch band staring the Bride and Groom and a first dance to a Christmas song, this really was a day to remember!

Here are some of my favorite images from the day

Joanna and Laurence – Wedding – The High Barn

Paul — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 00:35:10 +0000

I first met Jo at Kate and Andy’s Wedding in May, she is Andy’s Sister and was one of Kate’s Bridesmaids.

Jo and Laurence got married at St Michael’s Church and followed with their reception at the beautiful High Barn in Great Bardfield.

I started the day with Laurence so that I could get some time with the Groom in the morning before heading over to the their house to cover the Bridal Preps.

Laurence was getting ready and meeting up with the some of the guest at the Whitehall Hotel in Broxted.

Anya get’s her hair done!

A brief moment alone

Kate’s talents were on display again! Jo had themed the reception around the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party.

A fitting table name for the Bride and Groom, I don’t think Jo stopped smiling for long all day.

Jo made her own wedding cake

Laurence’s Speech produced both laughter and a few tears

The evening entertainment was provided both by the band and Jo!

Jo sang a beautiful rendition of Chasing Cars

Their First Dance

Emma and Anthony – Wedding – Wokefield Park

Paul — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 00:22:00 +0000

Between the wind, rain and miserable weather Emma and Anthony somehow managed to secure blue skies and sunshine when they got married at Wokefield Park.

Here are some favorites from the day.

I couldn’t resist the pattern on the bedstead

Finishing touches.

The look on the groom’s face is always a picture!

Exchanging rings

Touching moments

The view I wanted to use was blocked by a parked van and an ugly lorry, fortunately the side of the van was a bit quirky!

Anthony’s speech

The best man’s speech.

First Dance

Sharon and Greg’s Wedding – Wentworth Club

Paul — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 00:12:53 +0000

A typical Autumn Saturday in leafy Berkshire, rain, grey skies and a little more rain. Fortunately the rain did nothing to dampen Sharon and Greg’s wedding at the Wentworth Club.
Happily the weather did brighten up later and Mr Blue Sky did make a brief appearance.

Here are some of my favorites from the day

Sharon interrupting Cameron’s DS time.

Playing with reflections

Sharon and Greg saw each other before the ceremony and walked down the aisle together.

Thank you for inviting me to share your day, it was a pleasure to photograph it!

Zoe and Ben – Wedding – Sandhurst Royal Military Academy

Paul — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 06:44:02 +0000

I had the pleasure of photographing Zoë and Ben’s Wedding at Sandhurst Royal Military Academy.
Fortunately the weather held off and the only moisture in the air was from the numerous broken champagne bottles!
Here are some of my favorites from the day.

The Shoes.

A proud Dad!

Some of the Gents were having difficulty trying to open champagne bottles with their Swords

Others just seemed to be a natural!

The first dance

Zoë and Ben thanks for letting me share your special day.

Amanda & David – Crewe Hall

Paul — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 23:44:31 +0000

I was back up in Stafford giving my good friend and fellow photographer Gill Taylor a hand on a wet and rainy Bank Holiday (Who knew!) Sunday Wedding.
This was the second wedding that I’ve done at Crewe Hall and it’s always a pleasure to shoot there.

Here are some of my favorites from the day.
