Wedding photographer Essex

An English country Wedding

There is nothing like a Traditional country village wedding, A Norman stone built church, kept grounds and warm sunny days just like the quintessential lazy British summer, which in an idyllic world we all dream of for our perfect wedding day. Although this wedding took place on the 11th April 2014 it seemed like the weather was in the middle of august.

Unlike a venue where the wedding service tends to be relaxed a traditional church tends to have stricter rules regarding the use of  photography & as was the case with this church filming of the actual service was limited to just one or two shots from a distance, ( even if the guests were flashing away with their  I - phones & I - pads ). Outcomes the Nikon 70-200 2.8 vr2 , max wide open and ISO 2500 & no flash.The good thing was there was plenty of natural light so not a problem in the end with the quality of the images, but even so it still gets my goat when us official photographers have to obey the rules, yet the guests get away with it.

And then all group shots out the way, time to relax with Nick & Jo to get some nice directed shots of the couple together, now that's directed not posed so the eyes looking that way, the movement of a hand here, direction of light and maybe a Little fill flash.
