Mod­ern bride and groom in gor­geous wed­ding attire

Here’s another gor­geous wed­ding from Lon­don pho­tog­ra­pher Matt Parry. He says (on his blog), “aidan and sarah’s wed­ding was another lovely laid back and infor­mal affair with just a few tra­di­tional trimmings…just the way I like it!”… and you know what, it really shows when you ‘click’ with your wed­ding pho­tog­ra­pher like this.

My tip of the day then: meet your wed­ding pho­tog­ra­pher. If they ask about your wed­ding, your style, your per­son­al­i­ties… and if you can really iden­tify with them — book them! Matt Parry is right up my street.

In Matt’s own blog­ging style, I’ll show you all the gor­geous pho­tos from Aidan and Sarah’s wed­ding day and fin­ish up with Matt’s YouTube slideshow of their day at the end. Enjoy!

When I look at this photo I'm thinking the vicar must have a really dry sense of humour, and has just told a brilliant joke.

The per­fect mix of beau­ti­ful Eng­lish sophis­ti­ca­tion from Sarah and Aidan, and play­ful­ness from their wed­ding theme and pho­tog­ra­phy. Guys — congratulations.

I’ve real­lly loved this wed­ding, shot by Matt Parry. If you haven’t booked your wed­ding pho­tog­ra­pher yet and you’re in Lon­don, Kent, Essex, Hert­ford­shire or Buck­ing­hamshire, you need to visit www.mattparryphotography.co.uk

    once again a big thanks to claire for the feature.….as with all my wed­dings its so impor­tant to cap­ture the bride and grooms per­son­al­ity. Doing this makes every wed­ding shoot a fresh chal­lenge and hope­fully every fin­ished col­lec­tion dif­fer­ent from the last. see more at http://www.mattparryphotography.blogspot.com/
