Mother's Day.
Weddings are sometimes the only time we step in front of the camera together. And as there's an outsider documenting the day it allows everyone to be captured, on this one day. And it's an incredibly precious opportunity. I often hear people say 'Oh, my Mum hates having her photo taken', and often it's Mums who protest most about being photographed. Lots of us are more comfortable being behind the camera, but this makes my job all the more important, and even with the most reluctant I'll do my best to be a photo ninja and capture beautiful photos for you. After all, your wedding photos are more than just portraits of you and your partner, or photos of the ceremony. They're also about capturing everyone you love. And one day, the photos will be all we have.
After losing my Mum just as I was starting my photography business, capturing the beautiful moments & memories you and your Mum make on your wedding day took on a new meaning for me. My husband and I had fast tracked our wedding to ensure she could be with us, and aside from her belongings, our photographs were now all I had left of her. They are still my most precious possessions, and always at the forefront of my mind while I'm documenting your days.
Here are just a handful of moments I've captured of Mothers of the Bride or Groom over the years. These precious moments in time are a joy to witness, and a privilege to capture for you.
I hope you've all had wonderful days celebrating the Mums in your life. Sending love to all those who find Mother's Day hard, whatever the reason. And extra love to those going through their wedding & wedding planning without their Mum. xo
