Friday in Shrewsbury

Have been trying to get back to a sense of normality after losing Jasper earlier this week (see earlier post). Obviously it's very difficult and as we have had so many photos to edit from the previous weeks two weddings, it has meant we haven't had the opportunity to get out and about for a bit of "fresh air".

We'll try and remedy that today. We are scheduled to pop down to the beautiful town of Shrewsbury in Shropshire. Initially we are hoping to be doing some general photography of the tourist 'hot spots' in and around the town for a tourism brochure but frankly, the weather may prevent us doing everything we want. When doing scenic shots for this sort of application (tourism), it is essential that we have blue skies. Let's face it, when trying to 'sell' a place, blue skies are definitely the order of the day.

Never mind, if the weather doesn't play ball, we'll just do some of the interiors we need to complete as part of the assignment.

Following that, it's off to see a couple planning to get married in the town. The reception venue is the Mytton and Mermaid which is a beautiful old Grade II listed building standing by the bridge over the River Severn so it should make for some great wedding photography
