Ben has been capturing people's weddings for the past 18 years. He prides himself on capturing every detail and special moment of your day, even the ones you don't notice, in an unobtrusive manner. His relaxed and friendly approach means he's likely to be mistaken as one of the guests...albeit with a rather fancy camera! That smile hides years of experience, getting everyone in the right place at the right time without any fuss or fluster...So for a truly magical record of your unique day, and a friendly, approachable service from the initial enquiry to receiving your stunning images, Ben Roberts of Blooming Photography is the person for you.
Whilst I've photographed many amazing weddings in many amazing places I believe every wedding is special - Its' the combination of your guests that are all together in one field or under one roof that make your wedding unique and memorable to you. I LOVE photographing that!
Fun, friendly, unobtrusive, stylish, candid.
That people continuously recommend me!
It's one day, plan before, but let go on the day and go with the flow, things will happen naturally and you will enjoy it much more.
I love it when couples individually add their own touches, be it table names (of where they've been together on dates or their favourite bands), to having surprise family guests (that they thought couldn't make it because they live the other side of the world) turn up and surprise them!
Usually make contact via Bridebook, then check out prices and my work on my website. Often people book there or then or if they are undecided, they can arrange to have a video call one evening. Once you've said yes, it's a straightforward booking form, deposit (£200) and contract to know you've got me as your wedding photographer!
Really tricky to say, but my main advice is to make time to step back from all the buzz together and have a moment together.
Oh lordy, my mind is a blank on this one. I have lots of random requests from photographing the bride and grooms with alpaca's to photograph a particular guest with another guest...
Umbrella's and welly's (plus may be a shawl to keep your shoulders warm), you can go any where with welly's!
As soon as I picked up my dad's slr I was hooked!
