Wedding photography from a different angle

Wedding Photography

Your wedding photographs may become your most treasured possession in the years after your special day, so it’s worth taking the time to get them right. But you don’t have to settle for the typical contrived wedding shots. There are so many talented contemporary photographers out there who might capture a unique angle, atmosphere, scene or poignant moment that the traditional approach may miss.

Shop around for local photographers and browse for specialists online where you can check out their portfolio, but we’d suggest going with someone who’s been recommended by a friend, if possible. In fact, for my own wedding we were lucky enough to get two photographers. so we could be sure we’d get all the shots we wanted!

The example image above is from Altmix Photography in the U.S.

Driftwood heart

I had a lovely surprise this Christmas when I received one of these driftwood hearts from my auntie and then found out that she made it herself.   When I looked on the internet they’re actually very popular and pretty expensive.  This equivalent is from www. bythesea.co.uk who supply some fabulous gifts and jewellery.  You can also pick one of these up from Karen Millar – Devon Driftwood Designs Ltd.  All great for that perfect wedding gift! 

This way please…

Wedding sign

Why not start getting your guests talking as soon as they arrive with a handmade ‘Wedding’ plaque, unique to you and something you can pass down the generations.  So easy to make and you could even use the easel for your table plan later in the day.
