Last Sunday I was photographing Kate & Paul’s wedding with 2 good friends, Phil & Lou of Barber Wedding Photography who had kindly asked me to come along for the day to get some extra coverage and be a third pair of hands throughout the day. The wedding was at the beautiful Shottle Hall in Derby. Me and Phil set off at 8am to get there to photograph Kate and the girls at their house during the morning preparations, whilst Lou went off to tackle 18 blokes all by herself over at a nearby hotel. Once we’d got enough coverage we all met at the venue to await the bride . . .

The happy couple after the ceremony. We like to work fast with the couple pictures, so as not to take up their time for ages, whilst all their guests wonder where they’ve got to. This is the kind of setting us photographer types like; old stonework, gravel and pretty flowers all make our job a lot easier.
Kate didn’t trust Paul with the rings, so me and Phil snapped up this old bench in the garden whilst at the girls to photograph this shot.
We all like a nice bunch of flowers that stays all standyuppy and stuff. (Standyuppy’s a word, right?)
These types of grab shots are perfect, I couldn’t have positioned them better myself.
One of the cheeky chappy page boys, I told him to pretend he owned the place.
Lou handed me a super-wide 15mm fish-eye lens mid-morning to pick up some cool shots like this. This was set-up on the grass helicopter landing strip at the back of the venue.
