My poor sick bride

My poor bride today had a terrible virus and really struggled through her wedding today. Her mother was also ill and fainted just before the service.

Fortunately there were a lot of army doctors within the friends and family at the wedding and the bride and mum were given injections just before the service to keep them on their feet!

Of all the days to be sick, poor girl. She was a real trooper though, she wanted to do all the groups and have her photographs taken, even if she could only stand for a minute before having to sit down again!

Cyprus

Had an amazing time on Nissi beach in Cyprus and produced some really nice wedding photographs. I was a little surprised though after seeing them one of my wedding photographer friends had a crisis of confidence and started doubting his ability because he thought they were great.

Was feeling elated, but a bit down in the mouth as that I'd made him doubt himself. Fortunately he decided to rise to the challenge and did some personal work with another couple he is friends with so he could experiment and play and produced some fantastic shots. He really upped his game and so I'm chuffed to bits I inspired him a little. He's a great guy and a good photographer, it's a little humbling to have him rate my work so much!

Cyprus Wedding Tomorrow

Well the time has come at last, I'm off tomorrow to shoot a wedding in Sunny Cyprus for a couple I met in the UK earlier this wear, does that make me an international wedding photographer?!

Anyway, it's a very early start so I'm going to keep this post short in order to get to bed and get some sleep.

I've been looking forward to this job for so long and now it's come around I'm so nervous it's untrue! I've shot umpteen weddings before, I think it's just the whole thing of going to another country to do it thats making me nervous.

Ho Hum....I'll update once I'm back.
