Be careful what you wish for!

The success of my portfolio building activity is such that I am starting to realise that for every hour I spend taking photographs at a wedding I spend 3 on post production, but having worked in advertising studios all my working life, ‘that’ll do’ is just not part of my DNA.

To get everything ready on time for my recent assignments I decided to take my laptop on holiday. To make the best use of the quiet moments whist still enjoying the delights of Normandy. I am not sure whether it was my dog Gus, or my wife, but somehow my powercord was bitten into rendering my laptop useless. Maybe God is trying to telling something. Yes it must have been my wife :-) But we all need a break and I am refreshed with renewed enthusiasm to clear the post production workload.

My latest wedding assignment was for Maria and Iulian at Ealing Town Hall, a young couple madly in love with each other. It was a beautiful day, great natural light and a really nice couple, their respective families were also good fun, especially when I was trying to choreograph some of the group shots outside the town hall and later on. After the wedding ceremony we all headed off to Holland Park for a champagne reception and more group shots, the results are great and I am really happy with the final images.

Two more freebies and my portfolio will be complete. I can hear you say it now... “Next year Rodders we will be millyonairs”. I wish.

Hope you enjoy the pics as much as I did taking them on the day
