Being a wedding photographer at Eastington Park in Gloucestershire yesterday was a real privilege. The venue was amazing and the lighting for wedding photography at St Michael & All Angels church was perfect.

But more than anything else, Jen looked stunning. I mean, really stunning!

The day started with light rain but it didn’t even begin to dampen any enthusiasm for the day. And the great thing about Eastington Park is the exclusivity you get for the day; nobody else can stay at the venue so you really start to feel like you own the place.

With a two minute drive to the church, the service was thoughtful & meaningful and carried contributions from different members of family. And by the time we all stepped outside it was pure blue sky and zero rain; the perfect conditions for excellent wedding photography!

I won’t detail out the whole day but I must add that the speeches were amongst the most touching that I’ve ever heard. Only the hardest of folk would have survived those without a tear in their eyes!

Tom & Jen, have a great honeymoon. Give me a call as soon as you’re back because I can’t wait to show you some amazing wedding photographs!

In the meantime, I hope you all enjoy these ‘sneak peeks’…

Being a wedding and portrait photographer is great for lots of reasons but it’s even better when people tell you which of your photographs are the best.

So after running the competition in December 2011 to find the photograph you liked the most, it was good fun to find the winner last night and run the result through video.

See if you were the winner below…
