3 Jun 2010Fiona and Chris’ Draft Album Design

The Draft Album Design is one of those services that (I like to believe) sets me apart from other photographers.  When I’m photographing a wedding, I’m constantly thinking about the album design.  I want each page to be a chapter of Fiona and Chris’ wedding day story.

The Draft Album is available to view as a slideshow, but here are a few of my favourite spreads (or layouts or pages) from the design.


2 Jun 2010Fiona and Chris’ Big Day

On Saturday the big day finally arrived – Fiona and Chris got hitched!

We had a fantastic day (although let’s not talk about the weather!).  Fiona looked stunning in her two piece Maria Karin wedding gown, Chris scrubbed up rather well even if he and the boys had quite a challenge with their cravats!

The service at St Peter’s church, Bishopton.  Rev’d Maggie led a really lovely service.

Back at the farm the champagne flowed and great time was had by all.  After the speeches we were able to get outside for some family formals.  Did anyone get a picture of me on the JCB?

The entertainment was provided by my new favourite band – Emerald Thieves.  A fantastic mix of Celtic Rock and Party Music.

I hope you enjoy some of my favourite images from the day.  Let me know what you think in the comments section. The draft album will be online later this week, with the rest of the wedding images appearing online next week.  You can find links to all of the pictures on Fiona and Chris’ special Wedding Webpage, and on my Facebook page.

UPDATE: The Draft Album is now online.  Take a look here.


21 May 2010Fiona and Chris’ Pre-Wedding Shoot

I love Pre-Wedding shoots – they are a great time for me to get to know my clients and for my clients to get used to me (I mean the picture taking rather than my personality traits!).  I also try to capture something unique in my images – for Fiona and Chris that was so easy.  The shoot took place on their farm –  filled with sheep, horses, dogs and of course pigs!

This fantastic couple are getting hitched at the end of the month (in fact they came to me because my great friends Stan and Jane from Visual Photography were booked and they recommended me – thanks guys) at Bishopton Church then back to the farm for the reception.

Here are some of my favourites from the session.  You can also find these images over on my Facebook Page.  Why not make friends with me?

I’ll be posting details of Fiona and Chris’ images on their special wedding page: www.fionaandchris.markmiller.co.uk
