I am having a really unweddingy wedding and just want someone that can take a few shots and organise 30 people for a bit. The groom is wearing jeans and I'm wearing an ordinary dress FWIW - we're really not prissy about this at all. I would like some photos of the whole group and could do with somone else barking orders at them so I can enjoy the time. The wedding is at 10am, over by 10.30 -I'd like some of me with my Grandpa when I get there and a few my family / his family everyone together shots. Whatever I get is fine if the person can send me a few samples to prove they can compose a picure that fills the space rather than just point and click at somethine miles away. The lunch is booked for 12 so whoever it is would be definately finshed by then - any takers? I've contacted the students union at the arts college in Bournemouth but heard nothing - any students about?

Heres hoping

seriously. I will claim a space on a MNetters floor for the night (if they are near enough-got a couple in mind wink

). TBH i could do with the experience.

And in any case, it would be you paying the train fare wink

Its easy enough for me to get there on train-would only take 5 hours. Have a think, am happy to send you images i have taken recently (not on my site as they are the DCs!) If you email me on mumofmonsters @ gmail dot com and i will link you to my site (i haven;t paid for an ad so can't link here-i don't want to get in trouble!)

btw - I hope you build a career out of it (if thats what you want) it sounds like you deserve it.

I am nowhere near (manchester) and have my first wedding reception in a couple of weeks(normally do stills and the DCs), if it all goes well and you still haven't found anyone i will happily do it.

Can train it to Bournemouth in the friday, meet you for chat and see what you want, then do the do on the sat.

Have my own stuff but am not a pro by a long shot-i seem to have blagged my way to selling my work somehow!!

25th July.

I'm open to ideas. We dont need prints I dont think.

I have my own SLR btw and several 8mb cards - people are welcome to borrow them if equipment is an issue.

I think you're right flib - we may end up doing that, but having looked at family photo albums it will be dreadful

when is the wedding?

Add message | Report | Contact poster By Wed 17-Jun-09 14:52:46

oooh sorry blush

yes it did come across as asking for a freebie(to me at least)

so sorry!

What do you want from the photographer? a memory card full of all the snaps they took? A CD with pictures on(most likely edited) or prints?

We asked a friend who we knew could take decent pics to do ours, lent him our camera and he just returned it at the end of the night, it was his wedding gift to us
