Sadie e-mailed me a few weeks before her wedding with a problem that, surprisingly, is not too uncommon. She had booked her wedding photographer many months ago, but now as the wedding approached she found that she was unable to contact him. He did not return her telephone calls nor did he reply to her e-mails and she was getting very worried. In the many years that we have been in the wedding industry a year never goes by without us being contacted by a bride or groom in a panic who have been let down by their photographer or videographer. This, unfortunately, happens all too frequently and is one of the reasons why it is imperative to book a full-time, established and qualified person. So many people have set up in the last few years who meet non of these criteria, but all of whom have one thing in common - they are cheap. The old adage of "you only get what you pay for" is certainly true when it comes to wedding photography and videography. Anyway fortunately we were free and were able to make Sadie's day! As a surprise for Rob Sadie had arranged for a few cars from the TVR owner's club to turn up. My first challenge was to find a location where they could all park up for a photo! After the ceremony we took the couple off to Thornes Park in Wakefield before moving onto the Cedar Court Hotel for the reception.
