On friday I had the wonderful privilege of being wedding photographer for Kate & Al who tied the knot in the beautiful town of Thornton Hough in the Wirral. Such an ideal setting for a wedding. Friday morning the weather wasn’t so great but by the afternoon it had stopped raining and so we were able to get some great photographs! The weather was still very cold but it was definitely worth braving the cold for the photographs we created together.
Thornton Manor was a beautiful venue and it was great to also taste the wonderful food as Kate & Al provided a full meal for me and Laura. Thank you very much! It was gorgeous! It was also great to catch up with Suraj and Dawn who were one of my first wedding clients. They were also at the wedding.
Enjoy your wonderful honeymoon and the photographs Kate & Al. Many Congratulations!

I really love it when a bride chooses to have a long veil! I think you can see why…

Meanwhile the guys were over at the Seven Stars pub in Thornton Hough for some dutch courage…

I love it when I can photograph at a wedding and there is a powerful cloudy sky. It really adds drama to the photographs.
I have a new favorite wedding photograph! The veil, the kilt, the sky… I just love it!
Very nice I love your flash photography skills. I really like the photo of the bride with her hand on her hip.
Beautiful photos! I also love stormy clouds – really adds to the drama. What a great venue!
Beautiful images! Love the bride’s dress, and the kilts!
So fun…
Wonderful stuff Tobiah!
I think your new favorite picture is my favorite too!
Stunning portraits! looks like a wonderful day
Love it, you always capture lovely expressions, and your details shots are excellent. Top job.
Fantastic set. Well done (and good to see a groom in a kilt!)
Wow! What an amazing location- and you made full advantage of it! I LOVE the shots of them leaning against the ivy-covered columns. Amazing! And your lighting skills amaze me… definitely inspired!
Beautiful wedding. Great work! I just loved them all.
Beautiful photos. I love the details of the groom getting ready. Awesome stuff!
Gorgeous wedding, Tobiah! And I agree on your favorite – stunning!
What an amazing venue. You’ve done a great job!
Those are lovely – your lighting is dramatic but soft. The couple must be thrilled!
Good job! Had a good feel for the day and as always nice lighting on the formals.
Ridiculously good, as usual.
Lovely images Tobiah!
Lovely! How did you light the portraits in the church is that a video light? I love it!
Love the intensity of each shot. Love your style. Great looking couple.
What as amazing veil! You really made the most of it.
I love the shot of the bride extending her arms and the veil billowing behind her!
Great set of images sir, and perfect control of daylight and off camera flash.
Keep up the great work and have a sucessful 2010.
Thanks very much! Your all too kind
The first one uses a video light and the second one uses a 580ex2 and pocket wizard tt5 setup.
The video light was also used for the ring shot
Great stuff, stormy cloud shots are superb.
Tobiah, beautiful work. I love the lighting in the bridal prep shots. The venue looks fantastic as well.
