This is my 2010/2011 Wedding Portfolio. The photographs are personally chosen from many, the aim being to capture emotion and real life in each photograph. I am an artist and I see things uniquely (just as we all do) so have a look and call me for a wee chat regarding your wedding day. You will be pleasantly surprised: 087 2861544 or www.aidanoliver.com

D200 with 18-200 G ED lens @130mm. f5.6 1/80, ISO 400.
Sometimes you are away for a break, it might be Sheffield, Cardiff or Edinburgh - this time it is London, Brick Lane in fact. There is so much to see, taste and view, a veritable microcosm within the pulsing heart of a busy city once known as Londinium.
The face on the wall looks familiar, someone famous, a DJ or an actor? - not quite sure who but I certainly would be enlightened to know. This shot was taken on the 30th December 2007, a night away from New Years Eve where the Yuletide celebrations were still in full flow. It has a strangely calming effect on me each time I see it.

D700 with 12-24 G ED lens. f4 @ 1/40, ISO 800.
Captured on the 22nd of September 2009 at a wedding in Newbridge. The groom sits on his honkers to chat with a young friend.
Metering for the bright light makes this picture so effective, just as fully extending the limit of the 12-24mm lens used.
I sepia toned the image to create a mood. The stance of the young lady portrays a certain shyness, a trait some of us never loose.
