Weddings



Over the easter break I shot two weddings for friends one a friend I met through work and another a friend that I have known since college. I found these both to be a verry rewarding experience as it's a chance to not only document one of the most important days in their lives but also to share in their joy and celebration.



Before the weddings arrived, I knew that thorough preparation would be key to ensuring everything went smoothly. One essential step in the process was conducting a recce of the wedding venue. This pre-wedding visit allowed me to familiarize myself with the location, scout for potential photo spots, and envision the shots I wanted to capture on the day. Walking through the venue, I took note of the lighting conditions, the layout of the ceremony and reception areas, and any potential obstacles or challenges that might arise.



On the day of the wedding, I arrived early to set up my equipment and ensure everything was in place for the day ahead. As the bride and groom prepared for their special moment, I took the opportunity to capture candid moments of anticipation, nervous excitement, and quiet reflection.



As the ceremony began, I focused on capturing the raw emotions and heartfelt moments that unfolded before me. From the exchange of vows to the first kiss as newlyweds, each moment was a testament to the love and commitment shared between the couple. I moved discreetly around the venue, capturing a mix of candid shots and posed shots when they were signing the legal book.



Another part of these days was the group shots, arguably the most important shots outside of the ceremony itself.
