Claire & John got the wedding rule book and threw it straight out of the window.
They had their civil ceremony a week before their real wedding so that they wouldn’t be tied down by legal requirements. That meant they were then free to get married in their back garden, write their own vows and give their guests a surprise dance lesson before heading over to the intimate but very cool Kitchen Garden Cafe in Birmingham for some great food and a proper party.
Our kind of wedding!

Thanks to Paul Clapperton for second shooting this one with me and massive thanks to Claire & John for inviting us along to such a cool wedding.
It was also our first time working alongside our good pals Shutterbox. Can’t wait to see what they came up with.

Wow! Brilliant photos. Great reminder of a great day. Captures the spirit of it perfectly. Wouldn’t mind doing it all again soon. Who’s next?
These are amazing photos that really capture how special the day was; how much fun we all had; how beautiful the bride was and how much John and Claire love each other. Thank you Steve for being such a great photographer x
I have just relived that great day! What superb shots and stunning use of background. The smiles on all the faces reflect the joy of everyone. Thanks, Steve, you are a true artist.
Wonderful pictures! So nice to be back to the Claire and John Special day!! I love the colours and the composition truly shows how amazing the day was!! Well done!
Just wow – you already know how much we love these (I think our whooping and laughing at the viewing might have been a clue), but thanks again. True luminous portraits, just wonderful. Simply can NOT pick my favourites from the full album either, too many stunning images of all our loved ones to choose from!
Amen to throwing the rule book out the window!
