8 local wedding photographers showcase their favourite images

Some of the region's talented photographers showcase what they deem the ultimate wedding shot.

Photography is a vital part of weddings and can capture all the different emotions while telling the story of each special day. When the cake has been eaten and the flowers have wilted, photographs will take you back in time to those little moments you might have forgotten about and allow you to relive the day. Finding the right photographer is essential; the supplier should make you feel comfortable while slipping into the background and capturing all those key moments.

Here at Your Herts & Beds Wedding HQ, we’ve spoken with some of the top photographers from the regions to showcase their favourite couple shots...

Your wedding day should be all about the gorgeous and magical fun. With the documentary/natural approach to your wedding photography it means that you won't get a shouty/bossy photographer running around telling you what you need to do, instead I'm unobtrusive, and often get mistaken for a guest.
