When Karen and Mark booked me to be their documentary wedding photographer at The Olde Bell Hurley, I’d been informed that a log cutting ceremony would be taking place. This is a German wedding tradition I hadn’t seen before. Lots of Karen’s family and friends had come over from Germany, so the log cutting tradition…
Lovely stuff Craig!
Thanks David
Hi Craig – thanks so much again for taking such perfect photos of our big day! I absolutely love the light in the log cutting photos you took – just to say that it doesn’t actually work if one of the couple “pushes”, but you need to “pull together” to get over this first obstacle. I used to do competitive ballroom and latin dancing which is why we (or at least I) didn’t feel we could get away without a small amount of effort. I think Mark would have preferred to shuffle, but thankfully he is a natural and managed the little routine with ease! 🙂
Thanks Karen, the log cutting pics worked really nicely and what you say about the pulling technique makes perfect sense. Thought your first dance was great and it was good to see Mark go for it.
