The trials and tribulations of being a wedding photographer…what can go wrong..! The, as yet, untold story of Charlotte and David’s wedding day…

So, it’s been a couple of months since Charlotte and Dave’s wedding and so I’ve had a chance to recover! It was a wonderful wedding, but quite an eventful one as a photographer. Here is the untold behind the scenes story!

Note: before I start, don’t get me wrong the wedding itself was beautiful and none of what I’m talking about here affected the couple, guests or the photos (other than providing a few laughs and a fair amount of amusement – more on that shortly!)

During the summer, I had the pleasure of meeting another lovely couple – Lynsey and David, who we first met at Tying the Nott wedding festival in the Spring. When deciding a location, there was only one place for them – Creswell Crags. After finishing university it was the place David started his career as the curator, showing visitors around the ancient caves in the then wooden shed – it’s since had an amazing new building and had lots of developments (some of David’s legacy!)! We love it when a venue means something to our couples and, it meant I was given free a guided tour – win win!!
