What happened to the weather?

Posted on: September 19th, 2011 by dan

Never been rained on before!

This may seem incredible of course, but it’s basically true – I’ve never had to try and shoot with a camera in one hand and an umbrella in the other, but I sure had to this weekend! Phil and Chelsea’s wedding got off to a fairly sunny start, but the heavens opened while we were in the church. Much sogginess ensued, but thankfully we had some bright skies by the time we got to Aintree Racecourse for the rest of their wedding photography. I’ll post some shots up here soon.

Things are hotting up nicely for 2012…

We currently have 15 weddings booked up for 2012. Considering this time in 2010 we had 4 booked up for 2011, we’re very excited about the coming year! However, things are hotting up, so if you’re interested in booking with us (and we sincerely hope you are – we’d LOVE to photograph your wedding!) then please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us. There’s nothing that troubles me more than a date being booked already when a bride-to-be gets in touch, so please hurry before  the best dates are gone forever.

Your guests can now buy direct from us

Finally, we’ve taken the plunge and set up an e-commerce site for our couple’s guests to be able to view the photos and purchase them as well. We offer all the standard sizes of photos and even two sizes of canvas prints, which are always popular. The galleries are password protected for privacy, but you can see some other shots on the homepage by clicking here.

Coming soon…

After much research (and not a little soul-searching) we’ve decided to open an e-commerce site for friends and guests of our couples to view (and hopefully, purchase) their favourite images from the wedding day. It’s not finished yet, but we will post here when it’s ready.

New venues…

Posted on: June 14th, 2011 by dan

I’ve already blogged about what a good year we’re having here at Daniel Charles Photography (Next year is shaping up pretty nicely too – 10 bookings already) so I thought I’d add a little about what an exciting year it’s going to be. I love Liverpool, and I love photographing weddings in Liverpool, but after a while… well, let’s just say that shooting in new venues adds a little spice to the work. So this year we’re very pleased to have been booked to shoot in the following venues, all new to us:

  • Saughton Hall
  • Childwall Abbey Church
  • Liverpool Marina
  • the fair at the Southport Airshow
  • Holme Pierrepont Hall (OK, so that’s in Nottingham, not Liverpool)
  • Costessy Park Golf Club (again, ahem, not in Liverpool; near Norwich…)
  • Formby Hall Golf Club
  • the Mal Maison Hotel
  • Blundells Hill Golf Club
  • Inglewood Manor
  • Aintree Racecourse
  • the Crowne Plaza Hotel at Liverpool Airport
  • 62 Castle Street
  • NOVAS Contemporary Urban Centre
  • Thornton Hall
  • Holland Hall Hotel

Oh boy, I just can’t wait!

It’s a very good year!

I’m very glad to say, that even in spite of this phenomenally irritating recession, that this is our best year ever. It’s only March, and we’ve booked up over 23 weddings already. What does this mean for you? (more…)

Welcome to our new website!

Posted on: February 25th, 2011 by dan

Well, here it is – a new site!

Same as the old site, you may be thinking? Well, in appearance, strikingly similar, I’ll grant you that. But behind the scenes lies the PHP power and SQL simplicity that is WordPress. (more…)
