Favourite wedding photos of 2015

When it comes to reviewing the previous year, I can’t compete with newspapers. They all had their reviews of the year done at the end of December. But I’m only a week late and here it is – my favourite wedding photos of 2015.

It is always tricky to choose. Luckily, some of the weddings had already had been rated in Lightroom, the program I use to catalogue and correct the images. The idea is that some time during the wedding editing process, I will rate the photos that appeal to me with 3, 4 or 5 stars. This in itself, helps narrow down the numbers I have to go through. Other colour tags are used for shots that need to go to other places like my Facebook Page. Spending time in front of a screen has never been my favourite part of this job, but it is a necessary evil. By adding the boring tasks of applying keywords, tags and star ratings to the workflow, it does make finding images a lot easier in the long run.

It is no surprise (well to me anyway) that they are mostly observational moments rather than posed shots. I am always more drawn to these types of image and I feel that they sum up my style and approach to wedding photography.

I hope you like them – feel free to leave a comment if you do.
