A few quick Bangra shots...

Here are two sneak-peek shots from Dal and Sam's wedding - they had a troupe of Bangra Dancers to perform before there first dance, who were quite energetic!! I thought I was going to join the proceedings at some points, they came a bit too close for comfort!

It's been a busy few months...

A manic September means I'm a bit behind on the blog updates - I'll be blogging another wedding very soon, whilst I have a full few days processing Sam and Dal's amazing Sikh/Spa Hotel combo wedding.

Updates to follow!

Nia & Andy, 25th Sept 2010 Llandaff Cathedral and Fonmon Castle

Late in September, I made the trip back down to my home town of Cardiff in Wales to shoot Nia and Andy's wedding, which was held at the amazing Llandaff Cathedral and then Fonmon Castle, near Barry (of Gavin and Stacey fame!!!). It was a great day all round - from the weather (unusually sunny for Wales), amazing locations and a great couple, to the impromptu singing during the reception! here are some of my favourites from the day!

At this point, just as the couple walked back down the isle, a small dog raced in through the open doors of the cathedral, straight down the isle and between them - definitely the most unusual event of this years wedding season (just behind the snake in the porch of the church the week before!)

Bridal boudoir and portraiture

Here are a few images from a recent bridal boudoir and portraiture session. Bridal boudoir is an up and coming area of photography - image your husband to be opening a stylish album of stunning boudoir images of his fiance on the morning of the wedding. These sessions, held prior to the wedding, are great fun and are more like a pamper day, as your hair and makeup is professionally styled and we shoot in some awesome venues. Seeing the stunning images will give you even more confidence infront of the camera come your big day. Contact me on david@davidburkephotography for more details!

Strobist shoot

Here are a few photos from an afternoon of strobist shooting around Tunbridge Wells. For those not familiar with the term, 'strobist/strobism' is using small camera speedlight flashes (strobes in America) off-camera to create more dramatic portraits using a 'quick and dirty' approach rather than spending hours on set up etc.
