The wedding was on the 29th July 2010 but even though this was mid-summer, we didn't take the weather for granted which perhaps was as well as it wasn't the hot sunny day you might have expected. Having said that, no photographer actually wants a bright sunny day for wedding photography as it causes no end of problems for taking photographs. People don't want to be outside because it is too hot, the lighting is harsh causing nasty shadows and people end up squinting and pulling faces.......no for a photographer, a nice bright cloudy day is ideal and so it was for us this day.
The ceremony in what is known as the "Dining Room" at Thornton Manor was slightly different in that it was the other way round to the way most weddings are conducted. That made a lovely change for us and the bride has a lovely long aisle to walk up.
Moving outside for the ubiquitous confetti and some family photos and the weather was still kind to us. I stole Natalie and David away for a very short time so they could have some more intimate and personal photographs in the lovely grounds at the Manor, away from all of the prying eyes.
Another fantastic wedding with a lovely couple and as always, here is a small sample of photos from the day.
