Your first dance!
Your first dance at your wedding is one of the most important parts of your day. All eyes are on you and your new wife/ husband. You need a photographer to capture the magic for you.
Charlotte & Rene made it look easy as they took to the floor at High Billinghurst Farm.
Welcoming their friends and loved ones onto the dancefloor to join them, they partied the rest of the night away.
A live band played their reception and kept everyone firmly planted on the dance floor!
To capture images like these I bring with me off camera lighting in the form of speed lights which I arrange each side of the dancefloor - as I move around the floor I use a combination of flash and available light to get some great action shots.
I'm always watching!
I'm right in the thick of it to make sure I am there when the photo oportunities present themselves.
On Beth & Danny's day, Danny was in the band - they played a set right before he and Beth took to the floor for their first dance.
Once the set was over the dancefloor cleared to make way for Beth & Danny's first dance at Shustoke Barns.
The first dance typically takes place after the wedding meal or at a designated time during the reception. It's a focal point of the celebration and sets the tone for the rest of the evening.
Inviting their guests to join them on the dancefloor.
For many couples, the first dance is an emotional and intimate moment. It allows them to savor the joy of being newlyweds and share a special connection in front of their loved ones.
Overall, the wedding first dance is a cherished tradition that adds a romantic and memorable touch to the celebration of marriage. It's a time for the newlyweds to revel in the magic of the moment and create lasting memories.
