A Happy Wedding Ending

Delivering Wedding Photographs One Year Later!

It was never my choice and I certainly never would advocate for something like this but I’m afraid we do have some bad apples in the wedding industry.

Luca Giorgio is blown away by the beauty of his wife Sonia walking up the aisle to meet him,

I was hired by NJA Media in 2022 to shoot several weddings and there was always some difficulty in getting payment but I remained professional and kept the work flowing.
I arrived at Hanbury Wedding Barns in Derbyshire for the marriage of Luca and Sonia.
Their wedding was so fantastic and full of entertainment, with plenty of action for me as a photographer. I made some of my best work at this wedding and loved the opportunities.

Luca and Sonia share their first married kiss.

The lady that ran NJA Media was slowly crashing behind the scenes and her business was becoming unable to deliver their services and stopped paying their suppliers, which included myself. I’d done all the work and only been paid a small deposit.
I was contacted by Chris who created their wedding film to ask if I’d managed to get paid, as he had experienced the same situation but Chris did give me the contact details for Sonia.

I wasted no time by texting Sonia to let her know that I was the photographer and I had her photographs safe, so not to worry.

The confetti tunnel

Sonia and Luca were so relieved because Nyala from NJA Media had completely disappeared and wouldn’t even answer the courts following the Giorgio’s case against NJA Media.
In the end Sonia and Luca won their case but Nyala had disappeared and now rests with a CCJ, which is a shame because she had a good opportunity with NJA Media.
However, the case was settled but no financial compensation could arrive for the estranged couple.

Luckily NJA Media had hired a good photographer with a good moral compass! In I fly to the rescue and arranged to give Sonia and Luca their long awaited wedding photographs.

After waiting for a whole year to get their wedding photographs, they finally received them yesterday and I was so happy to be able to give them their sweet memories and now they can live happily ever after.

Wedding Venues in Leicestershire

Here’s a few of the wedding venues that I’ve done wedding photography and filmmaking at in Leicestershire.

I’m a documentary wedding photographer and filmmaker and try to avoid posing at all costs. My style is rather unique but also very popular.

I’ve been all over the midlands creating visual stories for couples getting married in Leicestershire and Warwickshire and in this blog I’m going to show you a selection of the images and videos that I’ve made so you can get a feel for what the venues are like and to get some ideas for choosing and how you could deal with decorating them for your wedding.

Personal Intimate Weddings at Home

Wedding Photography is changing before our eyes!

Since the pandemic has relaxed and become no more dangerous than the flu, many people are changing the way they get married. Firstly we’re experiencing a wedding book where people that have had to wait to get married are feeling safe enough to get things organised but the way they’re doing it is changing. There are trends appearing and some are going for more micro weddings with only 15-30 people to cut down on costs and just inviting those that truly mean more to them than the usual bigger crowds.

Some people are also now getting married during the week for a cheaper option as venues and other service providers can fill days when they wouldn’t normally be working and can discount their services easier.

I even shot a private wedding with just the family at a registry office in Birmingham, then on to a nice restaurant and the groom’s sisters house in Leicester. There was something quite magical and intimate about that wedding and was such a huge privilege to be the only non family member there.

I’m not discounting the big grand weddings because they’re still going on and ai did one the other week at a huge priory in Derbyshire.
