When Siobhan first contacted me I was already jealous, a bride who did not even have to arranger her own wedding as it was not Siobhan getting married but Susan, her sister. Meeting the girls at the hotel to discuss how the day would go I was excited about it from the start, come on girls, you would all be excited to photograph an army wedding with guard of honour, i.e. hunky men in uniforms....
From the very start of the day I knew I was in for some fun, photographing the guys in the hotel getting ready I was in my element, this was my first army wedding and as I photographed the medals and patches on the uniform I was told what each stood for, also being informed that the best man would be the highest ranking soldier there, which worked great to my advantage! Why you ask? How much fun did I have photographing the guard of honour with the best man on my side shouting orders, the lads had to obey, standing to order on command. Pity though, no matter how much I asked they would not salute me, but salute Susan they did and sure why the hell not, from the moment she put her dress on she felt like a princess. Beaming ear to ear, this was her day, this was her dress and he was her man! So to Mr. & Mrs. Hooper, congratulations I wish you all the best in life, let every day be as happy as your wedding day xxx
