bLiverpool/b Metropolitan Cathedral: bLiverpool/b Catholic Cathedral b.../b
In August 2011 I had the pleasure of being the wedding photographer for Rachel and Phil at their Ceremony at the Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral, also known as the, Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral Ceremony. The reception was then held the Crowne Plaza Liverpool.
I started off at Rachels mums and dads house for reportage photography of everyone’s excitement and nerves, and there were plenty of both. It was like a house party at one stage with a great buzzing atmosphere, the house was full of Rachel’s close friends and family which really helped make wedding photographs look so natural. A little panic set in around whether the flowers were going to arrive on time, but when they finally did it was all action stations to get the button holes on, then on to the coach with the Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral in our sights. Got only knows how that coach got the down the street… you could just about fit one car down it.
The Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral is an amazing place, being my second wedding I had an idea of what I wanted t achieve and knew what to expect, it has to be the biggest Cathedral in the North West, inside it’s huge.
I took full advantage of the Cathedrals architecture and used the pillars as features within the images, I think Rachel and Phil thought I was mad at the time but after seeing the photographs appreciated what my plan was, I have a good photographic eye, different to most Liverpool Wedding Photographers , which I suppose is why they hired me.
The next stop was the Liverpool Crowne Plaza, it’s a privileg being a Wedding Photographer in Liverpool , it’s one of the most wonderful places to have a wedding, especially by the Liver Buildings, the architecture is amazing. We made full use the the Liver Building and got some fantastic shots, I always want to give the Bride and Groom a variety of shots to use for their wedding album, Rachel knew she wanted the Liver Building incorporated into their photographs, so I mixed the portrait session upwith some wide angle & close up shots, kept some colour and converted some to Black & White provide Rachel and Phil a good mix to choose from. It was left up to them to choose their photographs for their album, tell me what you think using the comment box below.
