Gita & Jon

After editing and presenting a selection from a wedding I find it’s really interesting sometimes to look back on your first meeting with a couple. Then to consider you have the final results in front of you after their months of planning it’s simply the best reward to hear that they are pleased with the work.

I recall the first chat with Gita & Jon vividly. It was summer 2009 in a pub near Liverpool St station and we immediately hit the ground running with ideas and thoughts on how they wanted the photography to be. I was struck then by just how much they wanted their family and friends to get the most from the day. There was a welcome drinks period upon arrival at Layer Marney Tower, then the service at the lovely church in the grounds, followed by the traditional drinks reception prior to the wedding breakfast. Movement from one element of the day to the next was carefully thought out so guests saw all that the venue had to offer, with all that thought rightly rewarded with a bright, comfortable September day.

Here are a few which I feel capture the occasion as I saw it… and I would suggest Gita takes the 2010 award for most photographable shoes… !
