With Coronavirus affecting the wedding industry in a big way in 2020, I thought that I’d make the best of a bad job and organise a styled wedding shoot. I try and do one of these a year as I believe they are a fantastic way to work with venues and understand how to get the best out of them photographically (after all there is far less pressure and more room to experiment during a styled shoot than an actual wedding. However, they are also a brilliant way to network with other suppliers to create friendships and relationships with others in the industry.
I wanted to theme my styled shoot around Autumn as weddings tend to tail off during the latter half of the year and so my portfolio doesn’t have many Autumnal weddings in it, which is a massive shame as the colours are just gorgeous. Anyway, that’s enough of me waffling on, below are the suppliers who were involved in the shoot as well as some of my favourite images from the day.
