Click On Images to Make bigger
As a Yorkshire Wedding Photographer, training is a big part of my professional development, I think this gives brides confidence that they are working with somebody who wants to continually grow as an image maker. I live, breathe, eat and dream wedding photography – sometimes I think ‘Am I getting a little obsessed here?’ but then I remind myself that wanting to be the best you can possibly be is the noblest gift you can give yourself (sorry for being a little philosophical here!)
So, as part of my overall commitment to training, I had the honour of spending a day with Pete Bristo MBE at Wynward Hall, Teeside – an absolutely breathtaking 19th century mansion house, set in spectacular grounds. The model was a real bride whose wedding Pete had photographed a couple of months ago – she was delighted to be wearing her wedding dress again – something that not a lot of girls get to do!
The day was amazing, Pete was very generous in his sharing and his skills both behind the camera and in post production are clear to see – it is these reasons why he has won every award to be had and achieved Fellowships with all 3 of the major professional wedding societies in the UK.
I hope you enjoy the images above, I loved making them! What I do like to point out is that you will never see images either in my portfolio nor on my website from training days. Although I framed the images in camera and finished the images in post production – they are not from a live wedding of mine, nor was I directing the bride at the time – they are Pete’s poses, created beautifully. I do think it’s important to make that distinction and I recently even have a bride ask me if all the images on my website were from live weddings – a very fair question to ask I think.
Have a great week, enjoy the sunshine!
