Evan and Holly’s Dad’s Blog

Hi and welcome to my blog. Filled with images from my recent weddings, engagement shoots, portrait sessions and corporate work. Most importantly its a window into my world...a world where family takes an upper hand and I have the images to prove it. Hopefully you'll take a few minutes to browse and once addicted set the blog as a bookmark. If you have any comments please feel free to add them or just get in touch.

For The Record: The images that I put on the blog from recent weddings may not always be the best or even ones you might expect. They are things that I saw, that I like that I want to share. Sometimes they are part of a quirky story or show a tender or ironic side to a wedding.

Trying to stay true to my word, I’m back again with a few more images from Lisa and Scott’s Rivervale Barn wedding.  This time with added Darren (like Red Bull, only given in small doses).

Hey…I’ve also uploaded all of these images, all the images from Part 1 and a few more which didn’t appear in either on my Facebook preview gallery.  Like a found recording of a lost Beatles session.  OK, maybe not.  But you can be me Yoko Ono.

Part 1 of a selection of wedding photography from the beautiful Hampshire venue Rivervale Barn.

Yes…that’s right.  Part 1.  I don’t know, just felt like tossing it up a bit.  Variety is the spice of life apparently.  So that’s what I’m doing this week.  Besides, there will also be some of Darren’s images in Part 2.  Well worth coming back for.

This was my first visit to the Rivervale.  Amazingly secluded yet right in the thick of it, not far off the A30 and very near to home.  A nice combination.  In fact any venue where any motorway can be avoided on a Saturday is news to my ears.  Rivervale Barn didn’t disappoint and I would be keen to work there again in the Spring or Summer to get a different view on how light affects it.

Lisa and Scott (or ScottSteve as I began to affectionately call him) are two awesome and down to earth people.  I think, and this is only my guess, that the general rules are bit reversed in their situation.  She’s the loud funny one and he’s the quieter and more circumspect.  She did, in a previous life, play the Euphonium.  As a Trombone player I can tell that Euphonium players are generally mad.  Lisa does not refute this in any way.  ScottSteve is the mad scientist.  The Dr Emmett Brown of the family (minus the hair and the 88mph Delorean).  No matter how you dice them up, they are two genuine folk who I really enjoyed spending the day with.

Here is part 1 of the Scott and Lisa at Rivervale Barn.

A veiled reference to My Cousin Vinny? An abbreviation of euphemism? Or simply recognising my fellow sister of the low brass brotherhood. Yes, indeed I can reveal that Lisa is a former euphonium player. Some of my best friends were euphonium players. This does hark back to my days as a musician in which I was the annoying bloke with the slide trombone destined to empty his spit valve on the jumper you left under the chair in front of me.

Today’s Just One comes from Lisa and Scott’s wedding at Rivervale Barn near Yateley, Hampshire. This was my first trip to the new jewel in the Hampshire crown of wedding barns. Here’s a teaser with more in the week.
