The Tudor Barn Burnham are holding a wedding Fair on SATURDAY 28th January 11am – 3pm.

Many weddings Fairs are on Sundays when you might struggle to drag ‘him’ away from Sky Sports, so why not visit us on Saturday 28th January.

A great opportunity to have a good look around the Barn and take in the warm cosy atmosphere. Meet your hosts who will be able to answer any questions. The surrounding grounds offer plenty of photo opportunities and pretty backdrops, which is why I love working there. There will be a variety of recommened suppliers displaying the services they can provide.

We have special offers for any couples booking at the show. This is a very informal event so make sure you come along and say hello.

Loooking out the window at the atrocious weather on Sunday afternoon (it has been raining ALL DAY!) makes me appreciate how lucky we all were at yesterday’s wedding!

A lovely wedding with a very chilled out couple. Thanks Becky and David, have a great honeymoon!

PHOTO of the DAY

Photo of the day is a personal project.

This will be a photo that I have taken on that particular day. Sometimes this will be from a photoshoot or wedding on that day, others will be a photo taken specifically for the project. The selected photo may not necessarily be the best or favourite of the day, the only criteria is that is was TAKEN on that day…. This is quite a challenge and I know this will be difficult to maintain. I can already tell you there will be some pretty random images, and certainly won’t be masterpieces every day as I struggle to find time and inspiration for a daily image. The first image is a self portrait taken 1st Jan.

Day 9 – The Birds

Day 8 – The Boss!

Day 7 – Raindrops

Day 6 – Joshua

Day 5 – Stop!

Day 4 – Smoke without fire

Day 3 – In loving memory

Day 2 – Happy New Year!

Day 1 – Self portrait

Laura & Gareth had a dreadful snowstorm on the day of their wedding. Many of the guests were unable to get to The Tudor Barn, but a good time was had by all those who did.

August sees the busiest month of 2010 for wedding bookings with a number of mid-week & Sunday weddings as well as the Saturdays.

Strangely enough I still have one Saturday free and if I do not book a wedding my wife is likely to see it as an opportunity to drag me round the shops!!

So if you have not booked a photographer for your wedding on Saturday 28th August 2010, or know someone getting married that day, call me quick on 01628 662574,  for details of a very special photography discount!

Spend more on the memories!

Should’ve spent less on the dress; more on the memories.

Shutterfly Survey on wedding trends reveals 22 percent of the couples surveyed felt they didn’t spend enough on their wedding photographer!

Of course spending more money is no guarantee of satisfaction, but the idea of booking a cheap photographer who provides all the images on disc (often uncorrected, straight out of camera), can be a false economy. Spend more on your photographer!

Even with a disc of corrected images, it can be a daunting task to sort through hundreds of images and then try to design and have printed, an album that you are delighted with. Spend more on your photographer!

I can spend many hours designing an album, so goodness knows how long it would take someone doing it for the first time. I suspect it often gets muddled together in the end, just to get it finished, and I’m sure this must be one of the reasons for disappointment. Spend more on your photographer!

Quantity cannot replace quality, so it is still essential you choose photographer who can provide quality images, or sorting through your ‘average’ wedding photos can be very disheartening. Spend more on your photographer!

  The range of quality between albums and books is as varied as photographers prices! We pride ourselves on using quality products produced in the UK. Spend more on your photographer!

OK, so the above is a rather tongue in cheek, but there really is a concern that almost a quarter of the couples surveyed, felt they should have spent their money more wisely.

Below is a quote from the Shutterfly Wedding Trends Survey:

  •  Should’ve spent less on the dress; more on the memories.
  • Of survey respondents married within 12 months prior to the survey, 28 percent felt they didn’t spend enough money on the honeymoon; 22 percent felt the same about the photographer. 19 percent of the same sample  reported spending too much on the bridal gown and food.
  • Before you ask a friend to photograph your wedding with their expensive new camera consider this……

  • Owning expensive saucepans does not guarantee you will make a great meal!
