Whitney & Andrew at Christ Church Cathedral and Blenheim Palace
Fabulous locations and perfect weather helped make this a day to remember for Andy and his American bride Whitney. The Cathedral in Oxford city central is beautiful but quite a challenge to access, particularly with two cameras, tripods, gadget bag etc. but hey, nobody said this is an easy job and I was determined as ever to capture the best possible footage.
I was working again with old pal and top photographer Stuart Bebb and his local knowledge was invaluable enabling us both get our best but individual views of the day.
A magical moment was as Whitney & Andy walked through the grand corridors and squares on the campus. They came across a group of very excited Italian student tourists who spontaneously sang "Happy Wedding to you" to the tune of Happy Birthday. Fortunately I was able to capture this moment in the best possible way - on video - and even Stuart admitted that photos would not do justice to it.
Then followed a fun trip back to Blenheim Palace on a London bus. With the sun out but storm clouds in the distance we took Stuart & Andy on a buggy ride around the palace grounds. I can't think of another venue with quite so many photo opportunities so we were only too pleased to make the most of it.
As usual it was great to get Stuart & Andy's feedback. They told me that they loved the DVD, had watched it many times and thought it a wonderful way to remember the day. Job done!
