Wasing Park wedding photography – Malcolm and Rebecca
Sunday, March 28th, 2010I’m practicing a little providence, but I’ve seemingly been lucky with the weather of late, despite a rather overcast March. Spring has sprung and a carpet of colourful flora has started to take root, especially at Wasing Park. Some images from Malcolm and Rebecca’s Wasing celebrations.
Wasing Park wedding photography
Tuesday, March 23rd, 2010Forgive the indulgence of a monochrome set bar a couple. A handful of images from one of my more recent Wasing Park weddings from Catherine and Liam’s fabulous big day. I’m a huge fan of black and whites and ‘large’ real moments, as is reasonably transparent from many of my blog entries. Filling the frame with emotion is an important facet of my work. So whilst uploading these images, I am reminded of a client meeting I had tail end of last week, where discovering I was in the ‘pitching pot’ against a number of photographers, I was asked if I did ‘enhancements?’ I assumed at first this to be blemish removal, but no. Ostensibly the meaning proffered by my oppo was somewhat different. “The other company can make an overcast rainy day, bright and sunny,” it was proudly exclaimed. I appreciated what they were trying to achieve, but for me, I declined the opportunity. Yes I tint pictures, and I’m appreciative of other photographers’ highly stylised imagery, but to a point. It’s subjective, of course it is, and for me, the day is as the day is. Embrace the weather. Embrace the emotions. Embrace reality. We work in a digital age and I think it’s true that the romance of pulling a print from the fix under a red light will never be replaced by slotting a card into a downloader, but by-the-by, I still receive a thrill when a larger LCD reveals the emotion I believed I captured at the time of depressing the shutter on the day, minus requirement for an Arora Borealis.

Friday, March 5th, 2010If Red Bull gives you wings, then getting wed must surely be the fuel of SRBs? At our studio, out back, we have half a mile of undulating grass track that serves as a runway for visiting Cessnas and tail draggers. And so one week prior to their Wasing Park wedding, Andrew and Crystal throttled down for a grand entrance preceding their prewed shoot. A little plane spotting at the end of this post with additional points scored for telling me type and range. But first, some images from the day, less Crystal should chastise me for showing propeller head tendencies.

Wasing Park photography – this one’s fashion
Tuesday, August 11th, 2009My time spent at Wasing Park is always spent documenting weddings, except today! Animal, Pierre Cardin, Polo all brands represented in a fashion shoot conducted for High and Mighty International. I even found some new nooks and crannies for wedding work previously undiscovered. A couple of shots for review, then bed, as tomorrow I’m Gloucestershire bound for Darran and Linsay’s wedding.
