Wedding photographer Donnington Grove

Donnington Grove wedding photography – Andrew and Katy

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

It’s candid moments that make my industry so exciting. It’s hard to tell reviewed on a two inch screen how you’ve captured a scenario until the day’s work is downloaded later on the same evening. Purists may argue that a download doesn’t carry quite the same excitement as seeing an image chemically appear before your eyes under red lights in a darkroom, but for me, that download lays bare as many truths about the day’s photography as a good few hours swathed in toxic fumes. Congrats to Katy Locke and Andrew Williams, wed at St. Mary’s in Aldermaston – a venue that holds dear for the simple reason it was my own wedding venue. It’s a dark church, smallish windows, lots of tree shade and the normal rules apply; no flash during the ceremony; low key, discreet. But the rewards are high when a bride and groom exchange time with no attention paid to the lens poking out from a pew three or four metres away. The reception venue was Donnington Grove Hotel.
