Hayley & David | Wedding | Birtsmorton Court

I have to start off this post but firstly congratulating Hayley and Dave for choosing one of the prettiest venues for wedding photography in Worcestershire I have ever had the pleasure to shoot at. Birtsmorton Court is full of beautiful surprises with every turn from the moat to the little bridge and immaculately maintained gardens. I know that Hayley fell in love with the little bridge that leads from the grounds across to the hall where the marriage service takes place. It is very special indeed. This coupled with a glorious Autumnal day offered amazing light and the warmest of ambience.

Despite a total photography ban during the wedding ceremony I did manage to persuade the registrar to allow me to take a handful of shots. As with all weddings, the marriage is such an important element of the visual narrative of the day so I was pleased that I was entrusted to shoot in my usual documentary style waiting for the moment to release the shutter thus working professionally and discreetly.

Working alongside me were Sally and Steve of Magic Productions who were simply lovely. Always considerate and extremely helpful, we made a great team!

The whole day was full of laughter and fun, topped off by the best choreographed 1st dance I've ever witnessed! Hayley grooved despite her big dress and Dave did his thing!

Here are the pics:

Nicola & Tim | Wedding | The Lowry | Manchester

Nicola & Tim were married at the very lovely Town Hall of Sale where Nicola's Dad and sister couldn't hold back the tears which had me going as well as seeing a Dad cry is a dead cert for lots of emotion throughout the day. Incidently, Nicola's father was wearing the very suit he was married in himself an looked extremely dapper!
I can only describe Nicola and Tim both as energetic, full of laughter and fun and very much in love. Every single guest was brimming with joy for you both and it was such fun to be your photographer as there was so much genuine interaction and expressions that I was in my element taking pictures.

Following the beautiful civil ceremony at the town hall complete with live guitar from Tim's usher everybody piled onto a big red double decker to transport us all to Manchester City Centre. Tim's grandparent, who sadly couldn't be there in person, were kept fully up to speed throughout the day via skype monitored by Tim's parents. They must have been so happy to feel part of your day even if from a distance.

Once at The Lowry and following the all important drinks we sauntered off for a short while to take some pictures of the Mr & Mrs. We had a lovely time using the surrounding architecture and riverside walk as our background. You were both a pleasure to photograph and I wish you every happiness in the world.

Here is the feedback from Nicola & Tim:

Nicola: 'Jill - those pictures are beautiful. You have an incredible eye - everything is how I remember but you've found the most beautiful angles and framings and details. Thank you for a stunning collection of photographs.


Nicola x'



Tim: 'Hi Jill

I love these photographs...... they are all brilliant. Is that a record? You definitely deserve some kind of medal.

Looking over the photo's together really brought home to us the joy of the day all over again; we will treasure them throughout the years to come.

Thanks so much

Tim

I like wine... :-)

I received a wonderful gift from a local wine company today - Wine Buddy.
A beautifully packaged and presented Rioja is now waiting to be drunk. I can think of a couple of friends who would like to share that with me.

Thank you Rebecca for my gift. I'm now off to buy my brother some wine for his 40th birthday as Wine Buddy's promotion rewards Rebecca with TWO bottles of wine and seeing as she is my friend I'm sure I will get to taste those as well!
