North Wales wedding photographer- Nikki and Lee’s wedding in Portmeirion

Tony Fanning — Sun, 11 Jul 2010 22:27:53 +0000

Driving down to Portmeirion on Saturday morning I didn`t hold out much hope of having any outdoor photos. It was blowing a gale and raining really hard. As I got nearer to Portmeirion it was getting worse. Oh! well, I thought we`ll still get some cool images for Nicola and Lee.

They were married in the Hercules Hall which is a really cool venue for a wedding, then over to the Portmeirion Hotel for the wedding breakfast, then finally over to the Hercules Hall again for the evening reception.

The weather continued to be rough up to the end of the wedding breakfast then, hooray! It cleared up, and although not sunny it was dry.

Nicola and Lee were totally awesome! They were happy to do pretty much what I suggested and we did get some amazing images of the two of them in Portmeirion`s iconic architecture.

I must say a big thank you to Rob, the best man. He did a great job and even lugging my bags and stuff around for me. He also gave the bride and groom an awesome wedding present too. Just a honeymoon in Barcelona! What a guy.

It was a real fun wedding, a bunch of squaddies let loose for the weekend is always going to be a laugh, and they didn`t disappoint.

Anyway, here are a few images from Nikki and Lee`s wedding. Hope you like them.

Colwyn Bay photographer- Some pics of Annie

My lovely wife, Annie, needs a new passport so she asked me to take a quick pic in the studio.

As payment for my services I asked her to be a model (for all of five minutes) so I could try out my new lens.

She was amazed that I could make her look so amazing. She always does look great but you know women always have negative views of themselves.

Here is her new passport photo (following Home Office guidelines – Look straight at the camera, plain background, flat (ish) lighting) followed by a quick lighting and background change.

Well, a little something different today for the blog.

A real treat to do some really creative stuff with Linnett. A girl, who had a great idea for a present for her lucky fella. Some awesome, sexy photos for him!

Her first time in a studio but she was a total natural in front of the camera.

Many thanks to the very helpful guys at Collinge Antiques for letting me use the antique furniture in these images.

Here are just a few of the images we created.

North Wales wedding photographer- Sian and James wedding at Portmerion

I travelled all the way down the Llyn peninsula to shoot Sian and James wedding.

Starting the day at the brides` family home in Rhiw, we went down to the coast to Aberdaron for the ceremony then on to the amazing Portmerion.

My first time shooting a wedding there and as it was perfect weather it was a photographers dream. I could shoot there for days and not run out of locations for beautiful pictures.

Below are just a few of the great images we created for Sian and James.
