Wedding! Paul and Cassie in Bristol

Friday, May 15th, 2009

When Friday came the wind blew.

When I say "Blew" I don't mean a stiff breeze, I mean full on gale force winds. I actually have an injury from the wind.
I chose to walk to the ceremony as it was literally just round the corner from me.

Cassie and Paul had their ceremony at Blaise Castle House Museum which was an utter pleasure to work in. The staff there were beyond helpful, I highly recommend choosing this as your wedding venue.
The actual ceremony was held in the picture room in the Blaise Castle House Museum which is full to the brim of massive paintings of scenes from around the country and the rest of the world including Egypt, Greece, Switzerland and Venice. Most are by the painter William James Müller.
Cassie had six bridesmaids, all dressed in different colors and Kayley, one of Cassie's younger sisters had her wheelchair decorated in flowers and butterflies!

Paul had 10 Ushers which was awesome.
I love the ushers, not just Paul's, I mean all Ushers in general.  They're always up for anything and there always seems to be some device in their heads that makes them malfunction in the most amazing ways when they get together in a group of 3+...so you can imagine what 10 of them are like!

I'll get straight onto their wedding pictures, it's why you're here.
I'm apologising for the amount of pictures in this post, but I don't know why, I hope you'll enjoy looking at them.

If you were a guest at the wedding, leave a comment, I'd love to hear from you.

Enjoy.

We stepped upstairs to shoot in this room that was just flooded in light, I placed the chair in the shade and rolled off a couple of frames and got this...then I went downstairs to ask permission to shoot there. =)

...you knew it was coming didn't you! Cassie rocks this shot no end...but then again, I think even I would look classy leaning out of a vintage Jaguar.

A different take on my usual "groomsmen shot" I felt that the extreme editing and wide crop suited the image. Would love to hear your opinion =)

And finally...this picture. It makes me sad, it reminds me of when Jess left home and her whole family was really sad to see her leave. Zack, Cassie's Brother is a brave little man.

Congratulations Paul and Cassie.
Thank you so much for asking me to shoot your wedding, I had a brilliant time.

If you're getting married, give us a bell and I'll see what I can do.
Take care.

Wedding! Mark and Laura II

Tuesday, May 12th, 2009

Guess what? I'm still busy =)
It's good though, its keeping me out of trouble, and its bringing me work. And I love my work, so everything is good!

Mark and Laura II's wedding is the reason you're reading this post, so I'd better start talking about it.
This was a real fun wedding, they had the sun shining for them on this day, physically and metaphorically.
The amount of good things that their friends did for them to help them out was incredible! The massive amount of great food that was provided was amazing, the wedding cake that was "engineered", the "Bunsen Honeydew Band" and all the little things that made their day the best possible day it could of been for them.

I don't want to sound cheesy, and I don't think it'll be taken that way by Mark and Laura II and their guests, but I was really proud to be part of their day.
One of my favorite parts of the day at this wedding (and most weddings) is the "formal" shots of the groomsmen, most of Marks groomsmen and Best Men had already had the "Joseph Yarrow Group Shot Experience" ...so it was a total breeze and I love the resulting pictures. It always helps when the groomsmen and groom are relaxed and up for anything. It makes me look better than what I actually am! =)

Anyway, Mark and Laura II, thanks a million for asking me to be part of your day, I loved the whole thing and I loved seeing you both so happy. It was awesome.
Enjoy these bad boys:

A little bit of trespassing never hurt anyone, how could we say no to this field? Thanks ushers for helping Laura over the gate (which was clearly padlocked)
