Derbyshire Wedding Photographer : a Steampunk Wedding
Being based in Loughborough means that I am a Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire wedding photographer, even though I also shoot further afield in UK and abroad.
This Derbyshire wedding was one of a kind: a steampunk wedding! And I’m sad that the venue decided to not book weddings after this year as it’s a really beautiful place. Rachel and Lee booked the venue 3 years ago as their hearts were set on it but they needed time to save for the wedding. Some venues or vendors allow you to pay monthly to make life easier, I offer monthly payments and some of my couples like the option.
I’ll do a separate blog on the details because Rachel’s creations deserve a space on their own as she created beautiful steampunk pieces.
Yes Rachel did the hats herself, I loved these steampunk goggles!
A To have an outdoor wedding you need a permanent structure, this was perfect as it was large enough, it wasn’t too sunny so the guests weren’t squinting. An overcast day is actually great for photos!
I found the colours so subtle and soft, it reminded me of a renaissance painting.
Some of the wedding party. I do take the group photos you want, but love to take unplanned photos of your guests.
For the group photos, I like encouraging interaction to make the images come alive and your memories to be of the things said rather than posing
The boys.
Yes I love taking photos of the kids, and I guess if you invite them, it’s because you like them too.
Couple photos don’t have to take too long. They can be done in several bursts too to make the most of different places and lighting.
I love the connection between them. You can feel them breathe each other in.
