Wedding Photographer Anran Devon

Wedding photography is about a day. A very special day but I love it because its a self contained project. This was one of my funnest projects of the year. In wedding photography compared to the other work i have done- I sometimes i get it where people ask me to do exactly what i want to do . I get to tell the story jumping between mediums , making a film and taking some photographs. Sometimes its film, sometimes its Polaroid, sometimes its super8, negative, or digital video.

For this wedding in devon I chose to have someone shoot with me and assist and shoot D&J a collection of pictures and make them a short film.

Shooting wedding photography in devon and cornwall for me its the best. I have actually shot wedding in 2o countries ish, but when its good devon and conrwall are some of the best places in the world to shoot weddings. Wedding photography is not all about location for sure. Its about light and how relaxed people are and their reasons for the wedding and the way they got there. Its about what they value and a reflection of how they are as people. Its a character test of sorts . I have done wedding abroad that are awful because everyone has basically lost their shit and cant cope. Driving down the M5 going south its the perfect combo of going on holiday and it being easy but making the effort to all come together for something different , a weekend away, a weekend for me shooting pictures of real life and hopefully amazing moments.

AT thier wedding at Anran in devon D&J had all the things you need for an amazing day. They had personality, and tears and love and loud laughter and wringing hands and tiny people and animals and drinking and a hat that once belonged to Boy George, confetti canons, food and drink from some amazing suppliers, dancing and a grand piano played beautifully.

SO i shot digital photography and made a film.

I loved making the film - D said i quote - “ Do whatever you fucking want dal “ so i made her this - she loved it which i am pleased about cause some people would have again, lost their shit .

I wish every wedding was like this one X Love to you two if you ever read this X
