We’re only just into May and I already know Kelly & Ian’s wedding will be one of my highlights of 2012.
They were married at Millers of Netley in Shrewsbury, which is a fantastic venue, the weather was great, their guests made me feel totally welcome, and the whole day was relaxed and totally fun!
This wedding was also unusual for me because I shot the whole day solo. No 2nd shooter. No assistants. Just me and a couple of cameras. And I have to say I loved shooting on my own for a change.
And after such a great day, I received this lovely message from Kelly’s mom…
“Steve, I already know that the end result to your art work at my daughter’s wedding will be beyond spectacular, from the moment you walked in we could all see your eye for detail, imagination and caring direction, you met all of our guest’s requests with respect and good grace. I, in all of my 52 years, coming from a very large family and therefore attending many weddings, have never seen a photographer work so hard for more than 12 hours none stop. The reason you are so successful is due to your amazing personality traits which then transfers into your amazing focus in perceiving specific differences others can’t see, thank you so much Steve I can’t praise you enough, a true and dedicated professional.”
Things like that make this job such a pleasure.
Thanks to Kelly & Murph for asking me to cover such a brilliant day.
Just reminding myself what an awesome day this was! I can’t echo what my aunt has said enough: Steve is a dedicated professional! And look at the outcome of all the hard work, WOW. These are not just photos that prompt amazing memories, these are timeless works of art!
Beautiful work Steve, the willow tree in particular. Lovely to see shots that break the rules a bit 🙂
Thanks a lot Harry.
