I walked into the room, was shown where I was going to stand  and immediately wanted to take my things back to the car, drive home and stay the same. I looked across the room at the other photography stand and felt like I got it all wrong.  Why didn’t I get the big stands and banners? Why did I only bring a couple of albums? Was the mac too much? Did I have too many frames? Was my white and gold colour theme wrong?Seriously, I felt so out of my comfort zone. But none the less, I had risen early enough to get there, so thought I needed to at least try. And plus I was about to meet a ton of happy newly engaged brides to be!

Jim came with me to help me set up, and whilst I organised frames, he was ordering mugs of tea and bacon sandwiches 😉  

Once the day started I finally started I began to relax and began enjoying it. 

What my stand did have, was a  stunning accessory from Ivy Florist. They created a tall Autumnal bouquet to sit alongside my stand, that received compliments all day long. Seriously people wanting flowers, check these ladies out. They are good. Very good!! www.Ivyflorist.co.uk

One thing that I did love, was the comment on my pictures. Not the exposure or the composition, but the happiness that showed on the faces of my couples. And for that I was grateful, for the fact I get to work with happy people all day long.

I actually quite  liked my little stand. It was  a labour of love and was fun to create.
Thank you to all my family and friends that came down to Denton Hall to show their support.  I’m looking forward to connecting with the many people who gave me their contact details!! And maybe, just maybe, doing this whole thing again.
