Like me on Facebook

Photobucket
Well, I guess a lot of you may feel it's about time and you are of course right.  So, finally I have just launched my own facebook page for Elton Mogg Photography.  I will of course still be updating this blog with all my latest work and pictures but also intend to use facebook to throw in the odd preview picture or two from recent weddings and other shoots, detail any offers I'm currently running as well as hopefully allow you and anyone else interested an easier way to contact and engage with me about my work, your wedding or photography shoot or even just so you can pop in and say Hi...

So now I have to ask really nicely for you to click on facebook and go ahead and like me.... Visit the Elton Mogg Photography website

Reflection Shoot

Just after New Year I spent a lovely morning photographing Nick and his two daughters, firstly on their favourite family walk with the dog and secondly back at the house with some lighting set ups.  The brief was lots of shots of the girls on their own and together as the walls of his house (and of course their facebook walls too no doubt!) had plenty of space for some new pictures.

Christina & Alan's wedding at Maunsel House

So here it is, my first post of 2012. Took a while I know...

With this in mind I've decided for the new year I am going to do things a little differently with my updates. Previously I would offer up one preview picture and initial write up of my wedding from the weekend and then at a later date do a more detailed review of that wedding. What I'm going to do now is review the wedding straight afterwards with a small selection of some of my initial favourite images from the day - hopefully this will keep the blog up to date and give you some more images to have a look at from each wedding. There are quite a few weddings from last year that I have still not posted reviews on so I will try and slot those in during the course of this year too.

So onto my first wedding of the year which was the beautiful Christina and Alan's celebration held at Maunsel House in Somerset. To say this is a quirky venue is probably an understatement as it is full of so much history and obscure artifacts that you could explore it for days and keep finding new things. It was cold and frosty and everything you would expect of a January wedding with roaring fires warming up the couple and guests after their service in the nearby St Mary's Church in North Petherton. A really gorgeous day filled with much laughter, fun and happiness - a perfect wedding to start the year with!

If any picture sums up Maunsel, this must be it, removable tommy guns, rocket launchers etc lined the bar, could the boys (or myself) resist the opportunity...clearly not!
