Waiting For Rain

Gideon and Caren came to our exhibition in May and proposed that we shoot their wedding in August. So, we did!
It was a Jewish wedding, full of ceremony and tradition, and the bride and groom added their own touch by building a beautiful multi-coloured labyrinth in the grounds of a walled garden. It looked amazing.

It was a weekend of torrential rain and thunderstorms. Even on the Sunday (Jewish weddings take place on Sundays) morning, the heavens had opened and it looked like a washout. But, an hour before the guests arrived, the rain stopped, lighting improved and it warmed up nicely.

It was Lauren's idea to get out a fun brolly. However, with the weather not doing what we'd expected it to do, we had to simulate the rain on the umbrella. Gideon and Caren were happy to join in our fun and obliged us with this shot. Thank-you both!

Multibride vs Multigroom

We shot a wedding in October for our friends Ben and Grainne. We were lucky enough to have full access to the Royal Pavilion's grand Music Room. It's a stunning setting, with a ceiling of gold (real) and red and ornate decoration.

The shoot was made more interesting by the fact that Joe Public were also in there, but Ben and Grainne are willing models and put aside any thoughts of being watched and performed floorlessly!

Available light, however, was poor, and I had to use a high ISO with no flash for this setup. Anyway, I think the results were pretty good.. and fun to boot!
