Charlotte and Paul’s Cornish wedding story began in a car that broke down on their second date. The fact that same car was used on the wedding day for the transport to church meant the cycle was complete. It also shows that little connections like that mean stuff to people when it comes to celebrating their wedding.
The best thing, for me, about being a wedding photographer is that everyone has got a story. It’s their own story, different from the wedding before and different from the one that follows.
It’s those stories that fuel my fire and encourage me to create the images from their day.
I also got to travel south for this Cornish wedding and I was so happy because I love that special light that you get in Cornwall, especially when it’s drizzling!!
