Another SILVER in the SWPP wedding compeition along with three more BRONZE awards.....

And yes were are pleased.  The SILVER was awarded for an image in the WEDDING PHOTOJOURNALISM category and was taken at the wedding of Teresa and Kevin at Burley Manor back in September of this year.  It was taken at the moment of the ring exchange and the expression on Teresa's face shows that Kevin's ring was perhaps just a little bit tight.  I love this photo though as I really think it captures that moment well, and I additionally like the fact that the registrar is intent on the proceedings too!  Here is the image, click on it for closer inspection and to view it at its full size.

These images all received a BRONZE, the categories are in the following order: BRIDAL PORTAITURE, CONTEMPORARY WEDDING and TRADITIONAL WEDDING and should hopefully give you some confidence when choosing Digitally Different to photography your wedding!  Visit our website:  http://www.digitallydifferent.co.uk/ to view our packages and more of our photos!

Katie and David's Wedding at Highcliffe Castle

Yesterday was amazing!  Fantastic venue, fantastic weather and a fantastic couple!  Katie and David's wedding at Highcliffe Castle http://www.highcliffecastle.co.uk/ was a stunning affair.  We arrived at the Castle and awaited the arrival of David, his best man James and his ushers Sam and Ross and it was round to the spectacular entrance for some photos of the boys who all looked incredibly smart and handsome.  It was not long before Katie and her bridesmaids, Olivia, Alesha and Lisa arrived in matching white and grey vintage cars.   Katie and her Dad looked very cool in the their 'shades,' too good a photo opportunity to miss!  Katie and her bridesmaids looked beautiful and it must be 'hats off' to Katie's mum who had made Katie's stunning full lace wedding gown.

Soon the ceremony began in the elegant Winter Garden and David and Katie exchanged the vows necessary to make them husband and wife.  After the ceremony it was outside for the group shots and a champagne toast before we took Katie and David and their bridal party for some photos in the grounds and on the beach which was great fun as we are sure you can see from the photos.

After the wedding breakfast we stayed to photograph the heartfelt sincere speeches that marked the 'formal' end to what was a wonderful day. David and Katie head off on a wonderful honeymoon to Hawaii on Monday, jealous? you bet!  Thank you though guys for making the day memorable and enjoyable for us too!

Your photos will be online on out website from 28th September:  http://www.digitallydifferent.co.uk/  But in the meantime, here is a little taster!  Please feel free to leave a comment!

Teresa and Kevin's Wedding at Burley Manor

Yesterday, Alan and I were lucky enough to share Teresa and Kevin's special day with them at Burley Manor.  Donna arrived early at Teresa's mum's house where it soon became a hive of activity as Lynne and Kerry from Beautiful Brides started to attend to Mum and Teresa.  Teresa amazed me by being so relaxed and they both clearly enjoyed being pampered.  Soon it was time for Teresa to put on her gorgeous Maggie Sottero dress, the outfit was completed with a beautiful orchid bouquet.

Whilst all this was going on, Alan met up with Kevin and his best men Paul and Ian at Burley Manor.  The boys looked great in their pink shirts!  Teresa arrived in style in a baby blue Jaguar and the ceremony commenced.  There was lots of laughing and smiling as Kevin and Teresa exchanged their vows.  Although at times baby Abigail stole the show! 

After the ceremony it was out on the lawn for drinks and photos and it was not long before they were called into their wedding breakfast.  Alan and I stayed to photograph the wonderful speeches at the end of the meal.  Kevin and Teresa will be by now off on their honeymoon, but here is a taster of some of the photos.  The rest will be online from 21st September at http://www.digitallydifferent.co.uk/

Alan and I would like to wish them all the best for the future!!
