It’s so great being involved in a wedding where the couple getting married have so many great family and friends, and to see the massive effort so many of James and Ursula’s friends went to was really quite humbling.
I was thrilled to be photographing this wedding, not least because I had some friends attending, which is always nice.
The weather was gorgeous – so much so I got a sun burned head
– James and Ursula were fantastic, and great sports, the venue was amazing and the day was perfect.
When I’m circulating, taking photos, I watch people and how they interact with the couple and after a while I notice some ‘trends’, and what I noticed at James and Ursula’s wedding was how much they both mean to so many of their friends.
For your friends to make an effort to make your day special is one thing, particularly when you work and live in the same area, but it’s completely another ‘thing’ when, as James and Ursula do, you live in Singapore, nowhere near any of their friends, and still everyone makes a massive effort, even flying in from all around the world.
So if there’s one thing which struck me, touched me, it was friends, make them, cherish them and hold them.
