Aston Martin at a Wedding
May 27th
Just a quick one from a recent wedding, this one was a pretty quick snap of the couple and the car, and a superb car it is too, they had taken it for a spin between the church and the reception. I knew I had the shot I wanted straight away but I could have probably done the formals and the couple shots solely around the car but in the end we had to drag ourselves away. It was taken at f/4, 1/2000, ISO400 at 24mm, if I was doing just the car I would have had a grad filter to really deepen the clouds, maybe even have tinted them red like top gear! No time for such things at a weddings though.Fearless

I’m having a few issues with the blogging side of things today so if I don’t post this time I’m going to give it up as a bad job!
This is the last of my wedding posts from this wedding, I’ve done a couple as I was a bit low on wedding posts but after this I’m going to get back to some landscape stuff.
I was pretty nervous shooting this part of the wedding, the river was quite wide so there was quite a lot of stepping stones, it didn’t help matters that one guy who went turned back as he didn’t like the look of one of the stones. I was also aware of a number of spectators filming it on their mobiles and commentating on it as if they knew they’d be sending it to you’ve been framed! Luckily it went off without a problem and I got a lot of keepers. I had to clone out quite a few people on the banks but it’s easy enough with Lightrooms spot removal and photoshop for the more tricky parts.
The Bride and The Veil
Apr 22nd
We had a great wedding at the weekend and I have a number of shots to process but I thought I’d post this one. The wedding was at Bolton Abbey in North Yorkshire, it was a fantastic location and the weather was great. The couple are good friends of ours so it was a bit of a bus man’s holiday but they were up for anything in terms of photography which is always good, you’ll see what I mean if I post some shots of them walking on the stepping stones on a pretty wide river. There was a light wind so every time the gust picked up I tried to get a flowing shot of the veil, this being an example. 
I did a little HDR work to really bring out some detail in the veil back of the dress but not a great deal. The shot was converted to mono with silver efex so it has some authentic film grain too. The shot was taken at ISO400, F4, 1/4000 at 35mm (all the fours!)
