The Value of Holding a Wedding Album in Your Hands

The Value of Holding a Wedding Album in Your Hands

Why have a wedding album? I want to take you back to Spring 2017 - I was back home visiting my parents in Cambridgeshire, and my lovely friends and past clients Emily and Shane were visiting Emily’s parents, just a few doors down from where my parents live. We had realised this fine fate, and with their Sweden destination wedding coming up in August, we seized the opportunity to have a wedding meeting to go over their styling and ideas and most importantly the logistics and running order of the day. My Mum was thrilled to hear Emily and Shane’s plans (having known Emily since she was young) and loved asking questions about the dress, the food and all the other details. It wasn’t long before she went rummaging upstairs to pull out her wedding album from the mid 1970s, to show Emily and Shane exactly what my parents did for their wedding.

I have the very special pleasure of photographing Chris and Lucy’s wedding next year, so on Saturday, we head to Caerphilly Mountain for an engagement shoot to spend some time getting to know each other and to talk about their wedding plans!
