Image of the Day - Rina and Amit


As promised, here is another image from the wedding of Amit and Rina. I think Rina felt a bit daft when I was taking this (well I had asked her to hold her veil in front of her face, so you can't blame her). However, I thought Rina had the most amazing eyes and I wanted to create an image that really captured this. I loved the colours in her veil too and felt they would really bring out the colour of her eyes.
















In contrast here are some gorgeous photographs of Rina and her groom, Amit, taken by Glen. As you can see, these are really happy and relaxed photos, allowing their personalities to shine through.

















Finally, here are some more photographs taken throughout the day. Most of the time when we're at a wedding we're simply watching what's going on and seeking to capture those special moments in a way that conveys the mood and the emotion.




























Together, these images
sum up our approach to photographing our gorgeous couples and their wedding days. As you can probably tell, I think we have as much fun at weddings as the couples do!





Well, there was much more than one image today as it was so hard to choose from this beautiful wedding!

I hope you all have a fantastic long weekend. After the Easter break I'm determined to keep up my daily posting so I've got photographs of Church weddings, civil ceremonies and some of our favourite reception venues to show you.

In the meantime, I trust some of you will be getting stuck into those Easter eggs, I know I will be. Hmmmm.... chocolate eggs...

Image of the Day - En Guarde




Good morning! Today's image of the day is a bit of a break from wedding photography. This is my other half, Andrew, who is currently gracing the pages of Lincolnshire Pride magazine as they've run a piece on the Fernwood Sword Club. The Club's been going from strength to strength and after Easter we move to a new home, as we've already outgrown our current location. So we're responsible for a growing number of sword-fighters in Lincolnshire, especially as the latest beginners have all passed their course with flying colours.

See you tomorrow!

Image of the Day - Take 2


Hello! Well it won't take the most observant of people to notice that my attempts at posting an image a day were somewhat short lived. Partly, events rather overtook me but mostly this was because Blogger fell out with me. Or I broke the internets. Or something. Either way it's taken me until now to figure out how to post to our blog again, but here I am!

As usual, lots has happened here and I'll be letting you know all our news over the next couple of days. We've been shooting lots of gorgeous portrait photographs, had more brave and beautiful ladies take part in the PureWoman experience and photographed our first weddings of 2009. The image above was taken at Rina and Amit's wedding. I'll be showing you more of their photographs later as they are such a stunning couple whose perfect Leicester wedding took place over two packed days so they have LOTS of great photographs! This photograph was one Glen took at the party a couple of weeks ago and I just love it!

It's clear that the sunshine brings out the romantic in everyone as we've heard from lots of couples getting married next year. It looks like 2010 is going to be another busy year for us with weddings not just around Nottinghamshire and the East Midlands but as far afield as Surrey and London.

Our other big news is that the PureLight photography studio is moving from our home at Hexgreave to Stoke Rochford, but more on that later.

In the meantime, I can't resist showing you one more wedding photograph from Rina and Amit. This time, just because it makes me laugh!



More tomorrow (no, really!)
