A busy few days...
It was a full day on Saturday, I was covering a wedding with Samantha at Colwick Hall. This is a great venue and in time I will post some of the pictures. We arrived at Colwick Hall at 11am and the day ended for us at 9pm, shortly after the first dance.
It was then an early start on Sunday, as we were exhibiting at a wedding show at the De Vere Belton Woods Hotel, just outside Grantham. Samantha and I have recently joined forces to create a larger and stronger wedding photography business. We are both based in Newark and we work really well together. Over the past two weeks we had been busy getting some new exhibition displays ready for the show at Belton Woods - new displays, new sample albums, new prints and some new display furniture.
The show was really good and if we met you there then "hello from us". Working together means we can offer a service where both of us cover the same wedding. This means we can make the best use of time and physically be in two places at once. This works especially well during the preparations - Samantha with the bride and me with the groom - and during the service, with one of us at the front and one at the back. There is also something different about pictures taken by a male and a female, you get a slightly different feel from the image. So, as you can imagine, when we both cover the same wedding the pictures are simply great - even we surprise ourselves. I guess it is the strength of the team approach.
And on Monday I went to meet a couple at Stapleford Park Hotel in Leicestershire, just outside Melton Mowbray. Wow, what a place. I met Kelly and Neil, who are getting married there in June and I am their photographer. I am really looking forward to taking their pictures - they are a lovely couple and have put a lot of thought into the day. It just sounds fab - I'm excited and it is not me who is getting married!
