Although we are based in Surrey we do travel to all parts of the UK and this time we where taken up to Norfolk. Congratulations to Sarah and Dan who had their wedding in Norwich on the 19th of July. It was an amazing wedding to photograph with the bringing together of two different cultures. The jazz band was fantastic at the wedding reception and we ended up staying until midnight capturing the antics of the guests dancing to the funky music!

Here are a selection of images from the destination wedding that we photographed in Pafos, Cyprus at the beginning of this month. The ceremony and reception where held at the Atlantida Restaurant in Pafos. The couple stayed at the Laura Beach Hotel in Pafos. Destination wedding photography is what we absolutely love to do as it combines our passion of travel and professional wedding photography. Our combination of documentary style wedding photojournalism and highly creative wedding photography has resulted in some fantastic shots for Helen & Tony.

We arrived in a rather warm Cyprus on Monday at midnight and the temperature was a balmy 27 degrees. Due to the fact that his was a British colony they drive on the left and this makes hiring a car the perfect solution to getting around. On Tuesday evening we met with the future Bride and Groom for the first time, so far we had only spoken over the phone as they live up in the north of England and we are located down south in Surrey.  45 of their friends and family have also flown out from the UK to share in their special day. They are a very relaxed, fun and easy going couple so this destination suites them perfectly. The wedding went without a hitch on Friday 04 July. The ceremony took place on a grassy patch leading onto a sandy beach. The bridal party consisted of 2 bridesmaids, the best man, 2 page boys and a flower girl. The flowers where tropical, multi-coloured bunches and the dresses where a lovely deep purple colour. The bride looked beautiful in a strapless A-line ivory dress with train and corset at the back by Berketex Bride. On Thursday we had been to the wedding venue to scout out locations for the creative shoot. We found some rocky areas, bright flowers and an old shed that made for something a bit different from the normal bride and groom standing on the beach shots. All in all a wonderful day was had by all.

Shoot The Dress - later this evening at around 6pm we will be meeting up with the couple once again for a creative shoot the dress session. There are some stunning locations near their hotel and the water is lovely and warm, so I am sure we will have no problem coaxing the newly weds into the water! We will be back in the UK from Tuesday so keep an eye on the blog for pictures.
