Busy week

We have had a busy week! We are looking at getting a shop in our local town in Frodsham to base our wedding photography. Its not a definite yet but is certainly exciting.  It would be fab as it would give us a base for couples to see all our work and products. I think it is important for people to have look at your work in person as i don't think you can always get a true idea just online. Me and Mark (my husband) have been looking at decorating ideas for the shop already and nothing is even finalised yet- im far too giddy!!
With the hubby not only working on his stock photography he has also been busy finishing his teacher training. The sooner that is finished the better! he is not happiest when being a student again. He lives and breaths photography, he has his own advertising photography business ( www.markitecture.co.uk ), teaches photography and we work together on the wedding photography. It is not as hectic as it sounds- honestly!
Hopefully it will all work out will keep you posted!!

Joanne and Dave St Albans Cathedral

Joanne and David are a lovely couple that we met through my mother in law, who worked with Joannes Mum.  Joanne was originally from Mersey side not far from us in Cheshire, Her and her fiance  now live and work in St Albans. They wanted us to photograph their wedding so off we trotted down to St Albans, and i was glad we did. It truely is a B-E-A-Utiful city!

And as David worked in the School attached to the cathedral they were allowed to marry there in the cathedral. I dont think there could be a more spectacular building to say your vows to one another. They then had their reception party at St Michaels Manor Hotel, with its vintage chic feel.

Joanne was not sure initially that she was worried about getting a photo of her shoes until she had picked them! Maybe it is just me but i love a Shoe!

Joanne talking to the priests before her walk down the isle. They took their vows in the Lady Chapel. Although in the vast Cathedral the lady chapel had a small intimate feel. 

I have to admit i was a little jealous as the married couple made their way out of the cathedral as it was possibly the longest walk i have yet to see at a wedding!

St Albans Cathedral in all its glory.

 

St Michaels Manor Hotel

All in all this was a pleasure and honour of a wedding to photograph, the cathedral was breath talking and the hotel was lovely. With most ( not all admitadly ) couples you get to spend a good deal of the day that they will class as the best day of their lives, what other job can you do that with?

New to Blogging

Well this is a first for me, i am quiet new to blogging but as everyone seems to be doing it i thought i would jump on the band wagon!It seems like a good way to show case some work and share some wedding ideas etc. I will try and be good and keep up to date with this but i am not sure Rufus will allow me the time. Going to get the little man off to bed before i really look into what i am doing :0)
