An industrial Kelham Island wedding in Sheffield , Yorkshire.
We knew Paul and Nigel would be ace after our first meeting at our Elsecar Heritage Centre Wedding Studio. Such a chilled out couple who just wanted a great day with their family and friends and also a bit of liveliness in the evening………
Its always great to meet up with our bride and grooms to be before their big day to shoot their pre-wedding images. This is such a vital part of what our bride and grooms will receive with their full day package from us. We say this because they might have booked with us 2 years previously so a meeting to discuss more about their wedding day a few months before their date is a must!
So todays blog is going to be a little bit different. Its all about the reviews and testimonials we receive from our amazing bride and groom from who we have shots their wedding photography. The majority of our wedding bookings come directly from past weddings which is fantastic but for the couples who land on our website or wedding photography blog, they want to see what others have had to say about us. This should hopefully leave them feeling more than satisfied that they will be left in good hands when booking with us.
It's always great to meet fantastic people on pre-wedding shoots. Sarah & Phil were no exception. On a boiling hot April afternoon we met at Wortley Hall, Yorkshire to get their pre-wedding shoot underway. Phil & Sarah are to be married on the beautiful island of Guernsey which is also Sarah's home land. We really can't wait to be flying out for this one………
So the title of this blog is pretty self explanatory. It's all about fun. We seem to see so many shots recently which take on the moody and romantic side of wedding photography which is totally ace and we certainly post these type of shots on our various social media and website but lets just for a moment bring a few smiling happy faces to our blog to cheer up the week. …………….
Its always nice to revert back to the good old days of photography and turn that image into black and white. Out of all the images our couples receive we always make sure that there are a good amount of black and white converted. .....................
We shoot about 40 to 50 weddings per year and each one of these are as different and amazing as the next. Each wedding brings the bride and grooms own personality, style and creativity into play.............
As soon as the word "pre-wedding shoot" is mentioned to our potential bride and grooms we can receive such a mixed response. Usually the bride to be seems quite positive where the groom to be looks apprehensive to say the least. Not in all cases though................
Joanne & Mark really were the perfect bride and groom and probably the most laid back bride and groom ever. With their three lovely little boys running all over the place having the time of their life, Mark & Joanne’s day was a blast. The Crown Hotel at Bawtry was the perfect wedding photography location and a first for us shooting there too. The beautiful hidden garden held entertainment for their guests while the late evening reception went off with a bang. We’d love to say a big congratulations to you both and thank you for being ace with us all day……
We really did have the best day with Gemma & Patrick. From the start we were made to feel so welcome by there family, friends and bridesmaids & groomsmen. The weather was ace so everything went to plan. As always the staff at Hellaby were fantastic making an already special day even more amazing. We loved every moment of shooting Gemma & Patricks wedding and a massive congratulations to you both……….
