What is your most memorable wedding?
It would have to be the one in Bournemouth. The couple decided to have photos on the beach in their wedding outfit the day after. Not only did we get the playful shots in the water, but they were even open to jumping on the bouncy castle that we walked past. So all in all I had some amazing photos with a mixture of classic and playful ones.
