Nikki and Pete star in their Cambridge Pre-Wedding shoot

The bright sunshine this weekend meant that Nikki, Pete and I were very glad to have postponed our pre-wedding shoot from the wet-weather of a couple of weeks ago, and indeed the only challenge was finding quiet spots amongst the throngs of tourists hitting Cambridge last Saturday morning!

Here are a few of my favourites from their complimentary pre-wedding shoot:

Many wedding photographers will offer a pre-wedding shoot, but for most it's simply a chance for them to sell their clients more pictures. I really don't want my clients treated like cash cows, so I also give my couples a complimentary 16x16" canvas montage, based around one of three exclusive and unique designs. 

Having a montage like this means that there's no pressure sales and everyone knows that the sessions are all about making sure we get better photographs on the big day. Pop on over to my website for more details.

Aleisha and Ryan - a rocking wedding in Cheshunt and Enfield

It's very much "the morning after the night before for me" as I suspect it is for Ryan and Aleisha, who's wedding I covered yesterday.   A combination of Aleisha's massive hard work & attention to detail, and a truly excellent toast master made this a really easy wedding to cover.    Here are a few, very early samples of some images that immediately stood out for me.

These, and a few more images are also displayed on my facebook page.   If you'd like this quality of coverage for your wedding, then please pop over to my website.

Finally, a message for Ryan - "Thursday Nights, Channel Five!" :-)

Dodging the showers at West Lodge Park

Being a wedding photographer, the spring of 2012 will go down as one of the most challenging times in my career - simply because of the awful weather we've encountered.  Indeed as I sit here writing this, I can look out of my studio window and see hailstones the size of marbles and listen to the thunder.  Roll on June!

So it was that I ended up dodging the showers last week when Emma and Peter joined me at West Lodge Park Hotel for their pre-wedding shoot.   They're getting married there later this year and Peter had put together a lovely proposal in the gardens some months previously, so there's really nowhere more suitable.

Many wedding photographers will offer a pre-wedding shoot, but for most it's simply a chance for them to sell their clients more pictures.  I really don't want my clients treated like cash cows, so I also give my couples a complimentary 16x16" canvas montage, based around one of three exclusive and unique designs.    Having a montage like this means that there's no pressure sales and everyone knows that the sessions are all about making sure we get better photographs on the big day.

Here are a few of my favourite images, taken under the shelter of trees or when the rain briefly abated:

A huge thank you to both Emma and Peter for being such good sports and making the best of a bad situation.   Lets hope that's the last of the rain associated with your wedding guys!

Exploring Colchester with Julie and Niall

Julie and Niall are, I think, one of life's lucky couples.   As well as being lucky enough to find each other and develop a special kind of love, they also seem lucky in that they picked one of this springs few fine days for their pre-wedding shoot in Colchester.
