Great post! I absolutely love when brides book engagement sessions due to the time we get to spend with the couple prior to their wedding day.

martinJune 13, 2010 - 3:00 pm

Thanks Amy, I’m so glad you like that shot, I sometimes get comments that the couple are out of focus! what’s gone wrong? when it’s quite deliberate. Artistic ain’t I? lol.

Amy PowellJune 13, 2010 - 2:54 pm

What lovely photos – I like the one where you are both blurred and the flowers are in focus!

Dawn FordJune 21, 2010 - 8:23 pm

We absolutely love our photos Martin, you’ve definately captured the essence of our fantastic day! Thanks for being such a star. You have placed us in a difficult decision though… how on earth can we cut the number of photos down and only pick 50-60?!!!

Jacquie McFarlaneJune 15, 2010 - 1:05 am
