trinity center bristol wedding photography

Adam & Laura got married in Barbados in January. On Easter Sunday they decided to tie the knot again, this time in the presence of their friends and family. They chose the Trinity Centre for their original druid ceremony and reception. The venue was beautifully decorated by Reveries .Just before the first dance guests had a chance to enjoy a slideshow from the Barbados wedding that we had put together especially for the couple. As Laura is Italian, there were lots of guests from Italy, who were great fun and loved our mini-studio service in the evening.

PhotoDabek in "Brides Abroad" magazine

A surprising new trend is emerging in the UK based on the popular European tradition of Cherish the Dress and Trash the Dress. Bride and groom are seeking another opportunity to dress up in their wedding outfits and be photographed again,but this time in a relaxed and fun professional photo shoot away from the hustle, bustle and demands on their wedding day. Martin the owner and senior photographer of PhotoDabek, Creative Wedding Photography Studio based in Bristol says: "Couples are opting to do photo shoots set against a backdrop of Europe's stunningly beautiful and romantic cities like Rome, Venice,Paris or special destinations that mean something magical to them both. This gives the perfect excuse to wear their wedding outfits once again , get some stunning images, feel like models and have fun. Why not combine this with a romantic weekend away? We can set up photo shoots with the couple for part of the weekend then leave them to enjoy the sights and each other for the rest of time". PhotoDabek team has travelled extensively throughout the Europe and know many of the most beautiful sites and scenes so they can help with travel and accommodation packages.

What an awesome week that was! I had the pleasure to spend almost a week at the SWPP convention in London.
I had a chance to meet, talk and be trained by the best wedding photographers in the world like David Beckstead (USA), Gordon Jovic (Australia), Doug Gordon (USA) just to mention few.

The photos were taken and edited by myself at the workshop run by the famous Scottish wedding photographer Gordon McGowan.
I'm inspired so much, that I cant wait to shoot a wedding!

What a year! 2010 was my busiest year ever and most of my work came through recommendations! That means so much to me, thank you.
Also many of my photos were published in bridal magazines this year and three of my pictures made the front covers!
I would like to dedicate this slideshow to all the wedding couples I had the pleasure of photographing in 2010. It was a privilege to be part of your big day guys. Thank you all so very much.

Congratulations to Joanne & David who got married on the SS Great Britain in Bristol city centre. Last year I photographed Jo & David’s friends at Ashton Court, who recommended me to them. David arrived with his Best Man in an old stylish MG. Not long after Joanne arrived with her father in a white Rolls Royce. The ceremony and reception was very personal and touching.
In the evening we entertained the guests with our mobile studio, photographing all the guests in a picture frame which was a big hit with the guests and also fitted to the venue decor perfectly.
