Small Wedding Photographer Guildford Register Office

It was such a beautiful day for Martin and Michelle. They were celebrating their intimate wedding with close family and friends at Guildford Register Office. Michelle and I had worked together in the past. So she put her faith in me as her small wedding photographer to capture her special day!

Mostly I photograph families but I have done a few small weddings. This meets the needs of those couples who just want a photographer for a few hours rather than the expense of a whole day. As with all engaged couples, I like to chat through what their expectations are for the day. Do they want me to capture their morning getting ready? Perhaps small details like rings and the bouquet, the details of the dress? Some reportage shots of people arriving or at the reception? What timings would they like – just a couple of hours or more to include the service and reception?

Martin and Michelle’s brief was to photograph various more formal groups plus capture the ceremony as it unfolded. We took all of the group shots outside in the garden. This provided a beautiful backdrop for the happy couple. We were extremely lucky with the weather as it had rained all morning. We waited nervously until 2pm when we arrived and the rain dried up and the sun shone….phew!

Michelle and Martin were very relaxed. It was clear to see that they thoroughly enjoyed sharing their day with the children and other close family and friends. Michelle said after the day “It was such a wonderful day and you were brilliant with everyone.”

Kind review

The couple came in to see her pictures a week later and I am so pleased that they were delighted, and kindly left me this lovely review “We are absolutely thrilled with our wedding photographs. It was really important to us to have lovely photographs of us, our family and friends. Nicola went through with us beforehand exactly what was important to us for her to capture. The only difficult part was that she had taken so many gorgeous photographs it was really hard choosing our final selection!”

My pleasure, I really enjoyed being part of your special day, it was an honour and a privilege, thank you for asking me and I wish you a lifetime of love, laughter and happiness together. x

If you would like to chat about your special wedding day, or family party or gathering, please do get in touch, I would love to hear from you.
