If you had to pull together a list of “dangerous jobs”, being a wedding photographer would, I think it’s fair to say, not be on that list. But, hold that thought for a second as I can tell you for one that it is actually fraught with danger 🙂 and my latest accident at Katy & Pete’s wedding was there for all, and I do mean “ALL”, to see.
Getting set for the large group shot of all the guests, over 100 of them, yours truly slipped on a railway sleeper, flipped sideways and came crashing down to earth side on, injuring myself and smashing a £500 flashgun in the process – thank goodness for insurance and back-up equipment is all I can say. Still, needs must guys and sometimes, these things happen trying to get “the shot”.
Katy & Pete’s big day back in October was the first time I’d visited Pratis Barns and what a fabulous setting it is. I shoot a lot of weddings in hotels and bespoke private wedding venues, so it’s great every now and then to do something really different – rustic barns, old world charm and surrounding fields as far as the eye can see…gorgeous!
As far as wedding days go, this was definitely one of my favourites of the year, with a real relaxed feel to the day, fabulous bride & groom and family and friends. And, I can’t go without mentioning the guys’ dog, Pan…what a star!
Katy & Pete, a big thank you for choosing me to shoot your fantastic day. Here’s just a few of my own favourites which I hope you like – click on any image to enlarge.
