This photograph was taken at a wedding in Tuscany, Italy. I wanted the light behind the bride and groom to be the same as the colour of the candles in the foreground.

I love reflections so when I saw this lake I couldn't resist a shot like this. I waited for it to go quite dark then used three speedlights for this shot. Two to light the tree and one to light the couple.

The wedding breakfast room was full of candles and fairylights so I knew that by lighting the couple and underexposing, with all the ambient lights in the room I could create something which looked really different.

I have covered a number of weddings this venue but wanted to push myself to take something different, so I walked far away from the couple and just asked them to walk hand in hand. This was taken in the very last few minutes of the evening light.

This photograph is actually really simple and I just used a single speedlight to the light the couple. The venue is very dark so the biggest challenge was exposing for the lights and then lighting the couple. This meant everything else went very dark, which I really like.

This photograph was taken at sunset at a wedding at West Tower in the North West of England. I wanted to do something different with the girl's silhouettes so asked them all to throw their flowers in the air at the same time.

This photograph was taken at Sandhole Oak Barn in Cheshire, UK. The couple are lit by a single gelled speedlight placed behind them and I also set off a smoke bomb behind the couple, in front of the flash, to make the photograph look more dynamic.
