Once in a lifetime photography

Hi, I'm Paul and I love everything about photography. I shoot weddings but as an award winning member of a local camera club, I love and have photographed most things. You can find me in the park photographing pets or pitch side photographing local sports teams including Kidderminster Harriers, My second team. Born in Birmingham I grew up as a massive Birmingham City fan. I have two children and a mad choccy Labrador. My wedding photography is relaxed story telling with a touch fun and creativity.

A rainy wedding day in Llandudno didn't stop us from going onto the pier to capture this one.

101st Collection

This was a wedding at a beautiful Catholic Church in Stourbridge, West Midlands, UK.
The bride had expressed a wish to go back into the church after the ceremony for some lovely photos. The priest had already turned off all the lights, so I adjusted the ambient settings to expose for the window, then added three flashes, including the magenta-coloured gel, to light the altar.

97th Collection

Copthorne Hotel in Dudley, Bride and groom on the bridge lit with an off-camera flash and underexposed in camera to add the drama to the sky.

94th Collection

It was at the great Netley Hall, Shropshire for Ellie and Russell’ s wedding where I saw this opportunity for a night shot. Such a grand building, single off camera flash behind the couple, a black and white conversion and added a slight colour grading.

86th Collection

Just after wedding breakfast at Mill Barns, we set up for this photo, I feel it is important not to keep the bride and groom away from there guests for long. A simple off camera flash with blue glue behind the bride and groom. A little practice for first dance and there we have it!!!
