One of the greatest differences in the business side of wedding photography when compared to commercial photography is the fact that the vast majority of wedding photography bookings take place at least 6 months ahead of the wedding itself (and frequently a year ahead). The wedding photographer is usually the next booking made after the church/venue for ceremony.
Commercial photography however, is very often short notice work and PR photography can even be same day. Altogether it makes for an exciting life and quite often, you never know quite what will turn up.
Today is Monday 10th August 2009 and once again, we have 2 weddings this week. One on Friday 14th August at the magnificent Hillbark Hotel on the Wirral and the other on Saturday 11th August at St Marcell's Church in Denbigh followed by a reception at nearby Brookhouse Mill in Denbigh (North Wales).
On the commercial front, we are working in Shrewsbury on Wednesday for a well known retailer and another commission has come our way from our good friends at the John Lewis Partnership. We will be spending Thursday at their Waitrose shop in Sandbach Cheshire.
Before that, we have got to finish off the editing from our two wonderful weddings from the past weekend.
Never a dull moment.
