Aine & James - Chateau de la Ligne
At some point this Summer, I lost count, but this was Wedding Number X of this year’s season of 33 weddings.
It’s been a season like no other and though I used to shoot up to 40+ weddings back in the UK, those were almost always single days and mostly photo only.
These days, it’s rare if it’s a single day coverage (3 of 33 this year) and photo AND video (this year just one single photo only job).
This was multi-day coverage, photo and video and my first wedding at Chateau de la Ligne. I shot a music video here a few years back plus an ‘styled wedding’ last year, but this was the first real wedding.
The day prior was a ‘meet & greet’ day for Aine & James with guests mostly arriving from Ireland and Irish stew was an option from the buffet that evening.
Planned and organised by Laura from the French Wedding Company, the wedding day started somewhat hazy due to the two big forest fires happening at the time here in SW France in the Bordeaux area. By midday however, that could not compete with the strong SW Summer sun which blasted it’s way through to light up the day.
The car. We don’t get so many cars at weddings here in France because most weddings tend to be single venue events, but we had one here and it made an impact visually!
I could go on, but as usual, will let the visuals tell the story, something they can do better than my words…
