Last few days as MISS Henshaw πŸ₯³ ahhh so exciting!

We've been trying to get together for ages to make this happen but the weather has had other plans.. 🌧️ even yesterday wasn't ideal but with 3 days to go we knew we had to make it happen!

Pre wedding chat, talking through the important timings and then getting them ready for 'Claire Cam!' Shower and WILD wind gusts dodging along the way .. πŸ˜†

I think you are certainly ready guys, see you VERY soon!

JUSTBEYOU!

Having your bouquet made to split in TWO, so at the end of the day you can give one each to the mums... 😍πŸ₯°

So, one of them posts I was going to post when it happened but I got over it. 🫠
But sometimes it plays on my little mind because I actually care too much ?! πŸ˜†
it’s a thing.

A recent wedding - been a great day - last bit of coverage the first dance and some boogie time πŸ₯³ I’m circling my couple - I’m in the thick of it … having the time of my life .. 😎✌🏻

Then I hear
β€˜That was sly β€˜ and 2 ladies are glaring at me

I said β€˜I’m so sorry what’s happened ?!’

β€˜That was really sly’ she repeated

Then I realise she was trying to take a photo of the couple dancing and I inadvertently had been in the way.

I said β€˜oh hang on I will get them to come back around’

I just had further glares and eye rolls.

People … there would be no benefit to me intentionally NOT letting YOU get your mobile phone photo. Not one benefit.

Photographers we are just doing our jobs.. some might stand back and let it unfold but me … I like to sometimes be IN it … living the moment with you ..

So public apology - it’s never sly if it’s unintentional. Just us doing our thing. 🫣🫣

Thanks 🫒

'It was year today I lost my grandad I wonder if we can bring him into it somewhere' ... and it's like Kali knew... as he lowered his nose... πŸ₯ΉπŸ΄ πŸ•ŠοΈ

Some very special images on their way to their forever home, can't wait to see what you do with them.. πŸ₯°

Purchased as a thoughtful xmas gift idea, just throwing it out there.... πŸ˜‰
