Emily & Kev // Todmorden Town Hall Wedding

ByAndy Wade

When Emily and Kev approached me to shoot their wedding in our home town of Todmorden, it was always going to be special for me. I was married in Todmorden Town Hall, too! My documentary style of wedding photography was just what they wanted. With the prospect of going up to Bridestones Rocks for a sunset shoot all I had to do was order the weather for the day.

The plan was simple; preparations at home, married at Tod Town Hall, dogs, cakes, buffet, ice cream, games, home party and just sharing good times in the afternoon sun. And after a quick speech or two, some family shots and the smashing of the piñata, we chased the sunset and it did not disappoint. They walked as I shot and with the help of a little creative flash set up danced on the rocks before sitting together to watch the sun go down. Perfect.
