Lise and Jon's Wedding day

Well at Last !!  My own beautiful daughter Lise married handsome Jon at The Central Methodist Church in Chippenham. It was always my wish to take the pictures myself, as I didn't want any other photographer shooting the day in his or her own style. It just wouldn't be right !!  So I rushed around like a crazyman, from hairdressers salon to our home, and stopping off to get some pix of the groom and his best man getting "suited and booted". I got my own suit on with seconds to spare, and gorgeous daughter and proud father were driven to church perfectly and with style by my brother. This was the time for my talented photographer son to step in and photograph our arrival. The amazingly relaxed minister seemed quite happy for me to capture some special moments during the marriage, and I slipped to the back of the church ready to catch Lise and Jon walking down the isle. Just a few pix at Church, before we were off to the delightful Victorian Manor House - Grittleton House With plenty of time before the wedding breakfast began, we covered all the family groups, and yes I even popped up in the right place when required in some of the pictures. There was enough time for some more fun and relaxed images in the beautiful Italian gardens, and then the impressive staircase in the lovely old house. With the wedding breakfast over, and more friends arriving for the the evening party, my job was still not done yet ! Party pictures to take, and of course the Bride and groom's first dance. I kept shooting until the bitter end. A wonderful wedding day it was ! My gorgeous wife Ann and all our family and friends had a memorable day. Did I manage to combine being Father of the Bride and official wedding photographer ??????  Maybe -just !  Now I am looking forward to designing the most amazing storybook album for Lise and Jon. No pressure then ! !
