"An amazing couple with an amazing story who have the perfect love story"
For anyone who knows me or has worked with me in the past will know that I'm a little bit obsessed with movie style love stories - Jennifer & Bobby's love story is most definitely from the pages of a Hollywood movie.....
I had the absolute honour of photographing their Engagement Session in London last December. I remember receiving this email enquiry from Jennifer who lives out in Chicago and my first thoughts were "wow my presence has made it all the way out to Chicago". I've never been there but supporting the Chicago Bears as a kid it's always held a special place in my heart - so to say I was a little bit excited by this email was an understatement.
Over the months leading up to the shoot - myself, Jennifer & Bobby discussed logistics of the shoot, the locations they desired and their suitable outfits. As the shoot date was getting closer the weather wasn't really improving I knew we shouldn't of expected much for late December in England but I was hoping for one of those gorgeous crisp London blue skies instead we got wet dull London. You know what London is beautiful in all weather conditions and due to the weather we had to slightly adjust our shoot schedule on the day but I would honestly say it worked out perfectly in the end.
We took advantage of one of my favourite spots on the River Thames (next to Westminster Bridge), followed by St Pancras International Rail Station - this station is an architectual masterpiece in my eyes.
You may of seen a couple of these images on my
but I wanted to showcase more on here because there are so many images I love and wanted to share with you.
Jennifer & Bobby I wish you both an amazing wedding day and a life time absolute of happiness together and I feel honoured to have been able to shoot this session for you.
All the best,
Gavin
The Wedding of Alex & Paul | The Holy Trinity Church and Combermere Barracks | gavin conlan photography Ltd | Essex Wedding Photographer
Yesterday I had the absolute pleasure of shooting the gorgeous wedding of Alex and Paul in Windsor, Berkshire. The weather wasn't great but it didn't stop us, the day started for me at The Oakley Court Hotel where Alex was getting ready, this hotel is stunning and if you visit Windsor you should definitely think about staying there. Their Ceremony was at The Holy Trinity Church follwed by a horse and carriage ride to Windsor Castle and then on to where Paul is stationed at Combermere Barracks which is the home of the Household Cavalry Regiment.
I wanted to show you a small selection of images from their wedding day, I'm sure you'll agree with me that they both looked absolutely beautiful.
Their online slideshow is NOW AVAILABLE for viewing (please scroll down the page their slideshow is at the bottom of the post). If you are viewing this via an Apple device (iPhone/iPad) then you'll need to view it through a web browser such as Puffin Browser (available via the App Store or this link http://www.puffinbrowser.com/intro/?ref=dhphnexgmpfka).

Back in June I attended the LSS meet up No.18 at the amazing Rivoli Ballroom in London, the location was fantastic filled with amazing interiors and beautiful pockets on natural light which really inspired me on the day. As you'll see by the amount of images I've posted you get the idea that I had a blast on the day, these meet ups are perfect for photographers, models, make up artists and stylists so if you haven't checked out the LSS already I recommend you do so ASAP.
