The wedding of Nicola & Lawrence was a gorgeous Northern Irish wedding which saw all the men dressed in traditional Kilts, Sporrans and Gillie shirts. There was a lovely atmosphere which is perfect for my style of wedding photography. The ceremony itself took place in a quaint Greek Orthodox Church named Ayios Constantinos (Dherynia) and certainly left me with a challenge as far as the light was concerned. With the bright sun pouring in directly behind and behind, to the couple’s right, it did not afford me the ideal conditions for producing great wedding photography. However, with a bit of fiddling with the camera settings and a little post production work on the computer afterwards, I believe, the unfavourable lighting conditions turned out to be the opposite and helped create some, lovely, dramatic imagery. It was my first time at this church and I would love to go back. It was beautiful!
The rest of the evening was spent at the Grecian Park Hotel in the Cliff Bar which overlooks the stunning Konnos Bay. The sun was setting and the light became very dim which presented a host of new challenges to overcome. I thrive on this and love working with available light and these low light conditions were fantastic! I managed to create several images just by candle light alone, which for me, have a spectacular atmosphere and a glowing warm feel to them. This is one of my specialities and something I look forward to as a wedding photographer.
The Grecian Park Hotel put on a fantastic wedding for Nicola & Lawrence, and I look froward to visiting there many more times this year and in the future.
