The 88's

Well this has been a long time coming - but its done!


My 16 year old brother asked me to pop along to the Haydon Bridge Beer Festival back in July, where he and his bandmates, aka The 88's, were due to open the festival. Of course he asked me if I could bring along the beast (the camera!) and take some shots and video, which I was only happy to oblige but since then, I've had a few more bookings and the poor 88's have taken a back seat!


So to stop my waffling, I shall introduce you to a few samples taken that night, of the one and only, the totally magnificent, Theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee 88's!!!!!!!!!


Rock!!!!

The Johnstons!

So, August 18th 2011 found me at the South Causey Inn just outside Stanley, lurking around the new extension, trying to find a bride! I of course did find her, being preened and pampered in the attached hair salon, surrounded by her Mum and bridesmaids. Nerves seemed to be in check, but she told me otherwise!!


All bridesmaids were on top form also, (apart from spilling most of the pre-wedding champers!!) even down to a "please-can-you-tie-the-laceup-on-the-back-of-my-dress" train!! (something I was included in which seems to go hand in hand with my wedding photo shoots!!)
Once done, the sun shone, guests arrived and the wedding music started to play.

I've known Dom for a lot of years as we used to train together at the same swimming club (fortunately the smell of chlorine had vanished from us both!!) so being able to share and especially capture his and Christine's special day, was an honor for me.

So, Im delighted to be able to share a selection of their wedding photos with you also.
Congratulations again Mr & Mrs Johnston!
