It's been a long time...

...since I last posted and a lot has happened. My two elder daughters bought my wife and I tickets on Eurostar to Paris for Christmas - which was very nice and a big thank you. So, we went in late May and Paris was great: we enjoyed walking around the city, taking in the culture and the change of scenery was good. The food was very expensive - you can easily pay 250+ Euros for dinner for 2, but suffice to say we found some better value but still very nice restaurants. There is a great McCafe on the Champs Elysees which does a very nice coffee and a cake for 2 euros, with free wireless internet, which was a good alternative to 60 euros for breakfast at the hotel.

Then we came back and Samantha (my business partner) and I had 4 weddings on the run - Saturday, Sunday, Monday and also Tuesday. We've been busy ever since getting all the pictures sorted. One of the weddings was asian, a hindu wedding - Dipti and Vin (hi to Dipti and Vin if you're reading this) were lovely and so were all their guests. We had a great time and I'm really looking forward to seeing all the pictures.

I've recently been working on the pictures from a wedding in mid May, Georgina and Trevor (hi to Georgina and Trevor too if you are reading this). You can see the images in the client gallery - please do have a look, they have some really nice pictures. They had a really lovely day - it was very much a village style wedding, Georgina was able to walk from home to the church and then back home for the reception, held in her parent's garden, complete with marquee and sunshine, which was remarkable as it was rain all around except there. It is always a nice feeling to have captured someone's special day and to see the pictures when they have all been put together.

I have another wedding this coming weekend, one of my daughters (I have four daughters, all of which I love immensely) is getting married on Sunday 24th June. They are getting married in York. Obviously no official photographs from me, but I am looking forward to the day - it will make a change from being behind the camera.

Off to do some shopping, which makes a change for me on a Saturday.
