Anna and Tom's Wedding at Maidens Barn, Essex | www.gavinconlan.com

Anna and Tom's Wedding is my last of 2011 and what a way to end the year, their day was amazing and so much fun.  It's great being a photographer when your surrounded by fun people, it makes my job so much easier as we just laugh our way through the day.  

It was the first time I'd shot a wedding at Maidens Barn and I must say it's a perfect venue which I'd totally recommend - I even managed to set up my own studio space in the balcony area.  There were so many highlights for me with the main one being.... (well you'll just have to watch their slideshow - towards the end) I don't want to spoil the surprise for those that didn't attend.

I also want to give a shout to the playlist for the evening, so many classic songs one of best DJ sets I've ever heard.... and to Anna for making their wedding cake I hope the images do it justice because it looked beautiful on the day.

You'll see below I've posted a small selection of images from their day and below the images you'll find their online slideshow.  

I really hope you enjoy viewing their pictures and feel free to leave a nice comment (it'll make my day :) ....

now enjoy their personal slideshow.....

Afternoon in Chalkney Woods with my family | www.gavinconlan.com

This afternoon we decided to have a trip over to Chalkney Woods, so me and mum decided to take Holly over there. We've never been before which is weird as it's only about 10mins from home and this time of year the bluebells start to bloom so I decided to take my camera with me (as us photographers do :)

We had a great time over there, the bluebells were indeed out and Holly had a proper good time she was running around like a maniac with so many new smells to explore.  The problem is as much as we love her god she smells right now, she kept rolling around on the floor and ended up getting covered in mud.  We couldn't have the hump with her because she looked so cute...!!!!!

personal shoot with my little cousins.... | www.gavinconlan.com

something different for today's post.  I thought I'd upload a selection of photos taken from two seperate shoots with my little cousins over the last few months.  The first selection are of Aiden who was busting out all the poses for his own personal Christmas cards which were great and the second part of this selection are of Lenny and Albie which I had so much fun producing, except for the Man United ones being a Liverpool supporter - the things you do for your family aye ....

I hope you enjoy them..!!!!

Take care, Gavin ....
