I was lucky enough to do wedding photography at Haldon Belvedre in Devon a few weekends ago. Wedding photography is great because of the variety of venues and Haldon Belvedre as a wedding venue is a really unusual place. I have worked there doing photography before but never for a wedding , I have done several fashion shoots there so it was nice to finally shoot a wedding there and it didn’t disappoint.
Starting this year there has been a concerted effort to improve the color photography we produce. Generally in the UK a lot of the work I do lends itself towards the low lit and a majority of my work will be of this sway but it has been nice to work a little bit more with specific areas of the wedding which look better in colour. I still as a whole think color is distracting when looking at whats happening in an image but to have a burst of color punctuating the wedding makes for a really nice added bit of excitement I think, so have been trying to work a bit more with this, running these pics along side our normal gritty black and white pics.
Anyway back to Haldon Belvedre, they had a great day with the ceremony at the tower and the reception at Dainton Golf Club. An added surprise was a helicopter ride as a surprise for them which whisked them away from the venue in style. Eleanor and Angel are a great couple and they had a fab day, Angel is the captain on a cruise liner so no doubt they will be away on the ship to some far flung, exciting destination very soon, wish them the best of luck, they are great and was lovely spending the day with them and their families
Hope you like the pics, I have tried to include some of the color pics that I was talking about, there is about 30 here. The couple received about 700 post produced pictures here are a few of my favs and examples of some colour.

Amazing photos, it was a pleasure doing Eleanor’s wedding make up. It looks like everyone had a fantastic day!
I really love all the colour images you’ve added. One of my favourites is the lady on the bus – seeing the bright blue of the sky really brings that image to life. But mostly I love how you see every shot from a different angle. Not everyone would think to include as much sky in that picture, but it really works and without it the shot would look flat and bland.
