Saltburn by the Sea - Faded Seaside Glamour

Have you ever wondered what a photographer gets up to when he has an hour to spare on a drizzly day,in an overcast out of season seaside resort? No I didn't think so...
Well anyway this is what I did in February 2010 when I was faced with that.
What an amazingly atmospheric place Saltburn-On-Sea is.

Ivy Hill wedding fayre, Essex wedding photographer

MPA wedding photographer of the year for Essex Gavin Woollard will be exhibiting at the Ivy Hill wedding exhibition on Sunday 18th April. As it currently stands this is our last exhibition of the year.
Please call down to see a beautiful new album and discuss your special day with us.
As a sneak preview of what you can see here is a picture from a wedding last week taken at the Reid Rooms
. We look forward to meeting many new brides there this weekend.

Essex wedding photographer Gavin Woollard updates his website

Well I finally changed the picture on the home page of my Essex wedding photographers website.

It is easy to get attached to a picture but I think this new one from a lovely summertime wedding for Peter and Rachel last year at Hedingham Castle says everything about natural images at a wedding.
It may look easy to capture great reportage style images but it takes years of training and practive to get the timing right as well as being totally comfortable with your cameras to get the very best out of your day.
My website will always be a work in progress but as I love the design of this site I think the next few years will be more of an evolution rather than a big transformation of what I have already.
If you are looking for a photographer for your forthcoming wedding or function please contact Gavin Woollard by clicking on the link highlighted.
Many thanks and best wishes with yoru plans
Gavin

2 more wedding fairs - the Reid Rooms and Mulberry House

We have just enjoyed another very busy weekend of work and promotion. First of all Louise and Andrew's lovely wedding at one of my favourite venues Spain's Hall, in Finchingfield Essex.

Then it was great to meet dozens of lovely couples at the Reid Rooms wedding fair in Margaret Roding.

It is always great to meet with other wedding suppliers who have become friends as well as colleagues over the years. Marion from Poppies Flowers, Gail from Blushing Brides and Charles from Aristocars and of course Dwayne ( 'G'DAY' )and Jennet from The Aussie Barbeque company to name but a few.
The Reid Rooms event was run by the Main Even Company who did a fantastic job of marketing the event and making everything run smoothly.
My studio manager Kelly was at Mulberry House in Ongar where we have supplied images for brochures banners and other promotional purposes over the years. This weekend we are looking forward to meeting many of the couples to discuss their special days in more detail and confirm their bookings.
The picture above is from Louise and Kelly's beautiful snowy wedding at the Reid Rooms in December.
For anyone getting married please have a look at our website for some of out beautiful images from the leading wedding venues in Essex.

Essex Wedding Photography exhibition

Gavin is looking forward to showing some new work and meeting some potential clients at the Spains Hall wedding fair on Saturday 30thJanuary. Spains Hall is one of the finest venues in Essex and is a wonderful location for wedding photography.
These are 2 images we will be showing this weekend from a fabulous new album that we will be leaving at Spains Hall for them to show future bride and grooms.
I have several weddings booked at Spains Hall this year and always look forward to using the fabulous grounds as can be seen in the images here.

Wedding fayres at Spain's Hall, Reid Rooms, Ivy Hill and Mulberry House

Well it is that time of year again when venues and suppliers start to show their wares at the many wedding fayres and exhibitions that take place up and down the country.
We will be joining in this year but only at venues where we have some affiliation already.
Our first one will be at Spain's Hall on Saturday 30th January. We were at their last fayre two years ago and it was very well attended and met many lovely couples who we went on to work with at their weddings. One couple that we met was Nick and Jenny. Their pictures went on to be featured in one of You and Your wedding magazine's real life weddings last year.
We will also be at Mulberry House on 7th March. We have supplied pictures for their website, banners and other literature over the years and are based only a few miles from High Ongar where they are.
The third one we will be visiting will be Ivy Hill at Margaretting. Having photographed a wedding for the manager at Ivy Hill it is always lovely to meet up with people who have become good friends as well as colleagues in the profession.
A venue which I am very closely linked is The Reid Rooms. It is very close to my studio and again I have done portraiture for members of the staff there over the years. My winning picture (shown above) in the MPA photographer of they year for this region was taken in the Farm House at the Reid Rooms
We are in touch with another local venue and will update when we have a booking secured.
Please visit my website if you would like to make an enquiry about our availability for your wedding in 2010, 2011 or 2012 (Yes we are getting enquiries that far in advance!)
