Kate and Rob’s Wedding

// February 5th, 2009 // Photography, Portfolio

Well last job of the year was a wedding at St Peters Church, Belmont . Kate and Rob were married in the afternoon there and then went on to Astley Bank which is near Darwen.

Copies of the Wedding Photobook are available for purchase from my Blurb Bookstore, and for a quick preview of the book you can click the Book Badge on the right to see the first few pages.

It was a pretty cold day, but nice and clear so a great day considering the time of year. I did make sure I had some fingerless gloves for the day, which came in handy.

I started shooting at around 1:30pm, with the actual wedding taking place at around 2pm. I had time afterwards up until the wedding breakfast at Astley Bank at around 5pm. So I did a fair amount of shots at the church, including confetti shots, and then went on to Astley Bank to do the rest.

I enjoyed doing the confetti shots actually because we got quite a big group of people outside the church involved and the confetti was flying around for a while, so got the chance to do quite a few reaction shots, and as you can see could get the happy couple to have a kiss aswell.

When we did get back to the reception venue, the first job was to get the everybody group shot done. This was good because the venues bridal suite had a balcony that I could step out on to and see everyone in front of the main entrance.

So after a few more groups, the light was failing and it was time to do some inside, including some of just Rob and Kate, and also they had asked me to take some shots of the wedding cake as a family member had made it. I have to say it was excellent, with different members of the family all built into the design.

I couldn’t tell you who this character was supposed to be, but I’m sure if anybody that was they reads this, then they will probably know.

A great day and I’m enjoying putting together the Photobook of the day at the moment, with words from all the readings, and also a full list of peoples names in the Everybody group shot.
