Nic and Kirsty's wedding

I was asked by a friend at work if I would come and photograph his wedding. So a week ago I wandered along to Whitworth Hall, a deer park and country hall in County Durham. The weather stayed good all day, surprising given all the floods of late. Nic and Kirsty were incredible, they both had a great sense of humour which was shared by all their family and friends, it was one of the nicest weddings I've been to.
Happiness
At the beginning of the ceremony, I was shooting with no flash, high ISO to try and be less intrusive.
Father of the bride
Once the Bride and Groom were in position, it became clear that the large window they were stood in front of was going to become a problem, so I switched to a SB600 external flash.

After the ceremony was complete and everyone had had a drink, it was time for some confetti

The Bouquet
Normal formal shots were done, with lots of input and special group requests from various guests, then we gathered all the guests together for a large group photo.
The clans
All in all, a lovely day, though I find myself feeling exhausted afterwards, I think I put alot of pressure on myself to try and get the right shots.
