Natalie Martin claimed our previous Wedding

Photographer of the Year title with this image of a beautiful moment from a wedding at Barony Castle, near Peebles in the Scottish Borders. “Claire, the bride in the picture, had a particularly special bond with her grandparents. She got ready in the morning at their home and during the speeches, the emotions started to flow. The moment I captured arose when her new husband said during his speech how much the grandparents meant to both him and Claire. She then ran from her seat and planted the biggest kiss on her grandfather’s cheek. It was just perfect, but over in a flash and I had to be quick.”

Round 1: Details

For the first round, we’re asking you to submit one image that best sums up the wedding details and the more intricate elements of the big day. It’s up to you how this is interpreted, but it could be anything from a close-up of the rings, table settings and flowers to all of those other finishing touches that the wedding couple would have considered and chosen for their big day. Submit your round 1 image at photographynews.co.uk/weddingphotographeroftheyear before 14 May to enter round 1. Full T&Cs can be found at the above link.
