I’ve always had enormous admiration for wedding photographers. When I close my eyes and envision myself taking on this role it rapidly turns into an episode of Mr Bean but with loads more swearing and general mayhem. I am given to understanding that is the last thing a bride wants on her big day.
So, for now at least I am happy to observe from the comfort of my armchair and enjoy the fruits of others professionalism genius, because WOW, there are some truly awesome wedding photographers out there. The sort that make you want to get a divorce so you can get married again and have them photograph the day!
Of course all wedding photos are wonderfully perfect because they are celebrating LOVE and you just can’t take a bad picture of that. There are though a handful of artists that manage to somehow add… magic to their photos. In this ultra-competitive sphere it’s not enough to simply be a brilliant photographer, or even a brilliant photographer who’s also an amazing people person and a business guru. You also need ‘the magic’. These guys have it. Lots of it…
