I have chosen this week’s image because it is a little different and illustrates the idea of capturing a moment in time. Wedding photography is about telling a story, giving a bride and groom memories to treasure for the rest of their lives. Memories of moments that would otherwise fade with time. Of all the investments that a bride and groom make when planning their wedding, photography and their beautiful wedding album is the one tangible thing that they will be able to hold and cherish in the years to come. A wedding album becomes a families first heirloom and will help a couple relive their special day for many years to come.
This photographs from Dean and Dani’s wedding at Forter Castle, in Glen Isla Scotland, shows a great moment that could so easily be forgotten with time.
I really like Dean’s reaction to the moment and the different responses to this from everyone else. It isn’t every day that the groom reacts in this way during the ceremony which is why this photograph really stands out for me. A wedding is a celebration of two people coming together and I love wedding ceremonies that are full of joy, happiness and in this case exhilaration!
I chose to make the image black and white as removing colour from photographs can help focus the viewer on the emotions of the people in the photograph.
Forter Castle is a superb venue if you are looking for a Scottish Highland destination wedding. You can get married and stay in a traditional Scottish Castle with the only other guests being your friends and family. It is also perfect if you want a more intimate wedding and is situated in a beautiful location with stunning views of Glen Isla and the surrounding hillsides. Wedding ceremonies are either held in the unique chapel, as in the photo above, or larger wedding ceremonies are held in The Great Hall.
