This is an image from the start of this month, 5th May. As usual out walking the two dogs and as usual with a camera, only this time with a small (and rather old) Casio compact camera.
The fields close to where I live are full of blue bells:

I was wondering what I could do next to WOW! my brides and thought about putting together a simple short clip set to music from a selection of their wedding images.
This is my first attempt (Thanks Julie & Robert – if you want a copy let me know!!)

If you’re getting married and would like to alert your guests to your wedding date, you might consider sending them “Save The Date” announcements.
The beauty of Save The Date announcements is that you can advise your guests of your wedding date long before the invitations are mailed. These handy cards let guests know they will be invited to the wedding and allow them to mark their calendars accordingly.
Save The Date announcements are especially useful to guests who may be traveling a long way to get to your wedding and need to arrange transport (or baby / child minding facilities!)
By learning the wedding date in advance, they can book a room or make travel arrangements at a time when it’s most beneficial to do so. For instance, if a certain airline or hotel chain is offering a discount for those who book six months in advance, they’ll be able to make plans within the appropriate time frame.
This is similair to a pre-wedding shoot that all of our packages have; however with this shoot instead of a print you get a choice of “Save The Date” cards or other funky gifts to send out to your guests.
You can have fridge magnets for instance or postcards or maybe banner card (about the same size as a compliments card). If you really want to make sure your wedding date stays in front of people’s faces how about a mug??!!.
Nope! However if you do book your wedding photography with Andrew Miller Photography you will get the cost of your “Save the Date shoot” (£60) refunded from your wedding photography package.
Thanks
Yes, I’ll marry you, my dear,
And here’s the reason why;
So I can push you out of bed
When the baby starts to cry,
And if we hear a knocking
And it’s creepy and it’s late,
I hand you the torch you see,
And you investigate.
Yes I’ll marry you, my dear,
You may not apprehend it,
But when the tumble-drier goes
It’s you that has to mend it,
You have to face the neighbour
Should our labrador attack him,
And if a drunkard fondles me
It’s you that has to whack him.
Yes, I’ll marry you,
You’re virile and you’re lean,
My house is like a pigsty
You can help to keep it clean.
That sexy little dinner
Which you served by candlelight,
As I do chipolatas,
You can cook it every night!
It’s you who has to work the drill
and put up curtain track,
And when I’ve got PMT it’s you who gets the flak,
I do see great advantages,
But none of them for you,
And so before you see the light,
I do, I do, I do!
Fantastic!!
I was shooting an ‘out of area’ wedding last week (to me that is a wedding more than 20 miles from my home), went to pick up my camera bag and nearly had a hernia.
It weighs so much that it reminded me of being back in the Army with your life on your back.
And that is just what my camera bag is – everything I need to shoot a wedding, or portrait or just people when I am away. A portable studio in fact ready for every eventuality.
What’s in a camera bag?
In the small detachable bag:
What’s in a camera bag?
In separate cases (the case for the Canon 70-200mm is great):
Case A
Case B
What’s in a camera bag?
Why do I carry all of this gear?
I do not have time limits on my wedding photography, so I make best use of time during the day by backing up my shots and starting to make those first pass edits of the images.
I use the projector to show quick edits of the wedding shots to guests, and evening guests love to see how the day was. It is a great marketing tool when used in this way.
Thanks
