Janice & Derek | Beloved

November 6, 2012 · 14 Comments

Once a year I try to do something to help a charity with the work I do, and this year the opportunity came when Love My Dress teamed up with Oxfam to create a big old wedding auction. I donated a Beloved session to the auction (already married people should get to play too!), and the bidder who won a session with me was the lovely Janice from Essex.

On the day of Janice and Derek’s session the weather turned truly awful by the time we met, but since we had all travelled from different sides of the city, we decided to soldier on. I have to say I am quite surprised that Janice’s amazing energy and positivity didn’t literally stop the rain and bring out the sun, what a ray of sunshine this lady is! So even though the freezing rain didn’t make for ideal circumstances, I did have a thoroughly lovely time with Janice and Derek, and I think we managed to capture some of the joy that makes these two tick.

Thank you so much for bidding and helping with a good cause Janice, it was such a pleasure to spend time with you both! x

    I really love this Marianne, thank you so much for linking to Love My Dress – thanks to all the amazing suppliers who came on board with the Oxfam Auction, we were able to raise almost £40,000 for the charity – we have a lot to thank Janice and Derek for, for their contribution towards this amazing sum of money!

    Huge thanks again, such wonderful photos as always,

    Annabel

    I love the love you capture in all your work. I also love the way you present it on your blog. I tried to ask in ask me anything, but my question doesn’t come up. Is there a special gallery plugin you use? Thanks and love from holland

      So sorry, I haven’t had time to pop into Formspring to answer questions lately, should really get onto that! I don’t use a gallery plugin, no, all pretty old school hand-coded.

    This is so sweet – you can feel the love between them, and I love how you have included what they have said about each other with the photos, it adds another layer to the images – beautiful. I think I’m becoming addicted to your blog – hope you don’t mind! ;D
