Sometimes, I really love my job. One of those such times was about a week ago, when I was on a pre-wedding shoot with one of my couples. Like I did, they are having a movie-themed wedding. They’re even getting married at Bafta.

But the best part of it is that my pre-wedding photos are going to be printed onto their wedding cake. With that in mind, we decided to do a 40’s movie-themed shoot so that the cake could have a selection of images of them pretending to be in different movies.

Everyone who knows me knows I’m a complete film nut, so I was looking forward to this shoot. I stuck my overcoat and Bergman-esque black trilby into a bag and away I went. We shot in the Tower Bridge/London Bridge area and had loads of fun while we were doing it. Even the reluctant groom got into it after the first few shots.

Needless to say, the couple loved the images. Even the bride’s mum wrote to me to tell me how delighted she was. It’s always good to keep the parents happy, too! Here are a few of the shots from the day. And don’t worry…I’ll post pics of the cake after the wedding.
