Eve & Jim are two of the coolest people I’ve met. He plays sax, she plays bass and when they asked me to shoot their engagement shoot at The Wardrobe in Leeds where their first date was and where Jim has played countless gigs, how could I say no? We had an AAA pass to the newly refurbed club before they opened and after a quick stiff drink (them, not me) we captured these shots. The Wardrobe has so much history to it (The Rolling Stones played here once) and is such an interesting place, it was kind of hard to stop shooting. Their wedding day is back near my home-town (complete coincidence) and is sure to be a really fun and exciting day. Can’t wait . . .

Di and I can’t wait to view your complete portfolio of the day and make our selection. This is even though I know that despite my best efforts Di will inevitably say “Now why can’t YOU take photos like those?” The answer is simple of course, unlike you I am talentless. Great to make your aquaintance, Rob, and maybe our paths will cross again who knows? At a Christening even, could be, here’s hoping. Best wishes, Alan [...] shoot took place at the location of their first date at The Wardrobe in Leeds which you can see here. But for now here’s the story of their [...] |
