Just received our copy of Celebrate In Essex for 2011 and great to see that we have now had the cover image on consecutive years!! Picture is of Vicky & Ian who were married at the Fennes in August 2010.
Celebrate In Essex is issued by the Essex County Council Registration Service for all civil ceremonies.
Throughout the remainder of the magazine we have another 15 pictures – ok one is in our paid advert but that looks good also!
Dear David & Sandra
We would like to thank you for the wonderful job you did, you made us feel so relaxed and the resulting photos are great. Would definately recommend you to any of our friends getting hitched.
Thanks again, kind regards
Charlotte & Rob
While looking for some pictures for a client, I have just realised that we have been digital photographers for 10 years – where did that go!!
Our first camera was the Nikon D1x which we bought for £3500 in 2001, although it had been ordered in 2000 when it was first announced. Not an insignificant sum of money and quite a gamble on what was a relatively new technology. We used the camera for portraits and wedding candids in the first year, the full digital conversion would not be until September 2002.
There was a huge learning curve not only for the photographic side but also for the computer work afterwards and we are still learning!!
I remember thinking how we would save a fortune in film and processing costs not realising that we would use a significant amount more of our time and a huge investment in computing and ancillary equipment and of course camera upgrades! So why did we continue if we were not saving money? Control is the answer, everything is now controlled in house and is printed just as we want it, the improvement in quality for our clients has been fantastic. The thought of trying to use film again brings me out in a cold sweat!!
Sam and Paul are getting married later this year and it was a pleasure to meet with them beforehand and take some relaxed pictures and have a chat. We find it beneficial both for ourselves and our clients to have this pre-wedding meeting to further create a relaxed time on their Wedding Day.
Just heard great news from WPPI that I received a second Accolade of Excellence in the International Print Awards at the Las Vegas Convention 2011. I guess I/they must have missed it in the display. Picture is of Esther & Tim who were married at The Free Church, Frinton-on-Sea, Essex, picture is on Frinton Beach.
A thank you to everyone we met and spoke to at the above. We had a really busy and enjoyable weekend and it was great to come away with bookings.
David and I will be attending the Wedding Fair at Charter Hall, Colchester on Sunday from 10am-4pm. Come and have a chat about your wedding plans and view our Wedding photography, we look forward to seeing you.
Thank you to everyone who we spoke to on Sunday at Layer Marney Wedding Fayre about their Wedding plans and making it a successful day.
