Sunday was a day that again, both myself & my fiancé James were really NOT looking forward to. It was time to meet our photographer and have a little “Pre Wedding Photo Shoot” to get us used to the camera.
I can categorically say, this is not my partners cup of tea. AT ALL. PERIOD. END. FIN. So of course I felt nervous for him!
Our photographer is the lovely & smiley & happy faced Jenny Prest She met us at my in laws farm. It started off as a bright and sunny morning so it was look hopeful. After we had a little tour around the farm, showing her our chickens, the pony, the pigs & the sheep (and trying to hunt down James!) we set to it.
Jenny had brought a lovey heart shaped chalk board which I etched our special date on. We went all around the farm. We climbed walls, had to piggy back on Hay bales but it was so much fun! The kiss shot was pretty awkward as James & I are not ones for the whole “PDA” situation (he’s a farmers son, what do you expect?!) but Jenny made us feel so at ease.
I wanted to pick out a few photos that we absolutely LOVED! There were so many but here as just a couple of them.
Looking at the photos, I was surprised how much I liked the black & white photos. Without giving too much away our wedding day is very colourful so I didn’t want to do too much of the black & white style… I could’ve changed my mind now! (It’s much more flattering! Haha.)
We were really impressed with Jenny’s ability. She had only just started doing it full time, after realising her passion she quit her job & started her photography company! Meeting her & chatting to her (ALOT!) she has really inspired me. She’s followed her dreams & it’s working for her. I LOVE IT! If you need a photographer she is your lady!
I can’t stress enough how important it is to meet with your wedding photographer before the big day. If we hadn’t have met Jenny, I don’t think we would feel as comfortable as we do now. Plus we have a relationship with her now so she will know what we like & don’t like. So stop what you are doing all Brides to Be, call your photographer & book a pre wedding photo shoot. You’ll thank me in the long run.
