Julie & David

We spent the afternoon with Julie & David at Makeney Hall recently at their early Autumn wedding.

We first met Julie's family almost 20 years ago and it great to get together with everybody again.

The only thing that seemed different since the good old days was that there were lots of new children everywhere, who of course made for some lovely shots.

Julie & David also had a few shots organised with their daughters too.

And of course we coudn't miss out on a chance to get a shot of the kid's entertainer and disco in full swing. Couple of big kids (grown ups) enjoying themselves there too. Good on 'em.

Free Stuff!

Yes OK this isn't REALLY what we've been up to recently, but it is a great chance to get a free photo session in our studio JUST in time to solve a few of those parent's Christmas present problems.

You can take your free studio session either before Christmas to end up with a spiffy new portrait print as a present, or use your voucher at your leisure in the new year - any time before the end of March 2011.

It's really easy - just click it, print it, bring it, and claim a freebie!

Chrissie & Matt

Chrissie & Matt had the good fortune of getting a gorgeous autumn afternoon for their funky stylish wedding at the beautiful East Lodge Hotel in Rowsley a few weeks ago.

We started the day upstairs to shoot the preparations, and spent the day floating around to get the feel of their relaxed afternoon.

I couldn't resist getting a shot of their order of service complete with bride promising her husband to be that she will 'make lots of poached eggs'. Fantastic stuff.

We grabbed a few discreet shots of the registers being signed without intruding, and finished the ceremony with a nice fisheye lens shot to show the whole wedding group.

After a few shots with family and friends, we got to take a much awaited golf buggy ride to the top end of the property where we knew we would get some great shots with the low warm autumn sun, and the beautiful Derbyshire hills in the background. What a venue!

We also took a stroll around the lovely gardens and lake to grab a last few shots before the wedding breakfast - including a great surreal art installation featuring three giant floating rocks and the surface of the water.

Last up was a shot of the lovely wedding breakfast room setup, and their stylish dolly mixture cake. Nice one!
