It snowed!! Yesterdays wedding on the East Coast turned into a great day. I was so worried as it was a late wedding 4.30pm and would be dark but the snow brought back a reflected light which looks great on the images. On the down side it was -3…brrrrrh.. Jo had a fabulous gown on so was very brave.
here are a few images…Have a great Christmas.
I would like to strart taking portraits again so Tim & Tracey kindly modelled for me.
Here are the results hope you like them guys.
Here is a few more from the Nikki and Stuart Trash the Dress shoot..
I was hoping for good weather Sunday for my first Trash the Dress but as per usual the UK weather let us down…but Nikki and Stuart were not down hearted..
They were willing to go for it and by the end of the day we had blown away the clouds and were Rocking!!
Superb couple accompanied by the make up artist and hairdresser Lucy who helped me keep the equipment safe from the wind and rain!!
Here are a few of the shots we took. Enjoy…
Ed and Lisa came round last night looking super tanned from the honeymoon to pick up the wedding photographs. I got somewhat carried away and ended up editing over 700 images. It was such a fun day and they both loved having the photos taken that I could not stop either!! As a thank you they bought me what I love the most…..chocolate! Thank you guys for thanking me! Your a wonderful couple as are all my couples and it makes it all worth while when I see the smiles and laughter on your faces when you see the photographs. Good luck at editing the photos down for the album!! 
Yesterday I took a day off and went to a seminar by Johannes. He is a award winning photographer in New Zealand from a tiny town called Littleton. I actually met him when I was over there in April and was so impressed with his work I went in to the studio and introduced myself! I obviously felt like a geek! and from what he says now I think he too thorght I was a geek! Luckily I convinced him I was not a stalker and that we would love him to come to England to and introduce himself to the british photographers, with the help of wedding album manufacturer Queensberry he flew over last week.
He is a incredible thinker and exudes passion and love for what he does and this showed in his images and album design. I have scribbled many notes and will ponder them over the next few months and try to instill some of his philosophies into my photography. Perhaps even enter a few awards again.
He does not give you the answers to running your businesses successfully but gives you the tools to think of the answers yourself.
I hope one day to return to New Zealand and perhaps next time I walk into his studio we will be friends.
Up to ‘Chelsea-on-sea’ to photograph Drew and Trevors Civil Parnership. The ceremony was at Sussex Barns which I had not been to since being nearly stuck there last winter during a snow drift!! Again we were blessed with the weather and the Coastal breeze!! Everyone had a fantastic time especially the guests from Canada who were slightly mad!! The evening began with Bingo which not everyone graspped!!! It may have gone down in record as the longest game!
A gloriously sunny day for a Civil Partnership at Stower Grange. I had only met the girls a little before the wedding but had a hilarious laugh with them and knew photographing their day would be enjoyable. They spent the honeymoon camping so I hope now your back girls you appreciate a good mattress!! Hope you like the photographs Hopefully you and your friends can join my ‘weddings by elizabeth’ page on Facebook.
I promised Lisa & Ed I would put these up before Lisa Hperventilates too much…..
A small intimate wedding at Park Farm with Mairi & Paul. However it goes down as the most giggly wedding of the year, the girls were just fabulous and kept Mairi’s nerves in check by the supply of lots of Champagne!! Park Farm new boutique rooms are just stupendous!! A real suprise! Heres a few photographs that show the humour of the day and the ancestory of Mairi.
