I had not met Dave and Liz before the shoot as it was in fact my wonderful wife who had spoken to them at the York Racecourse wedding fayre last March. They enjoyed speaking to her so much that they figured that I must be also quite a nice person and they decided to book me - I hope they weren't too disappointed when they finally met me!
I met up with Vicky and Michael on a beautiful evening in early May when it felt like summer was upon us. Their chosen location was The Priory Cottages near Wetherby, a venue that despite just being around the corner from where I live, I have not photographed at before. In fact the only time I have been before was when I was looking at wedding venues for my own wedding, and probably would have chosen had we not decided to get married down south.
