My Favourite Photo

I've been waiting to be tagged in the favourite photo meme , but have decided to just tag myself as lots of people opened it up to everyone...

I've thought long and hard and gone over all the gorgeous photos of my children, of which there are many. But the one photo I truely love and would hate to lose is this one of my husband and me on our wedding day. Yes, it's a bit obvious and probably a little bit naff to chose a wedding picture. But it is (probably...) my favourite photo.


I hate all photographs of me and very rarely have my picture taken. I honestly can't stand seeing them and realising what I really look like. But I've yet to see a photo of a bride that looked bad, and luckily this extended to me on my wedding day.

This picture was taken as we left the church. I'm laughing as I've just noticed a couple across the road who have stopped to watch us and Adrian has looked over and started smiling. There are many pictures from my wedding day that I like, but this one is my favourite. I think it caputures a spontaneous moment of happiness, but in a formal setting, under the archway of the church.

A year later I was pregnant with Freyja, though I didn't yet know it...!

It would be wrong to put this photo up without crediting the wonderful photographer you took it. Alison Purvis-Gisbourne was just starting out when she photographed our wedding, but a quick search on Google shows her business is now booming.

I'd like to tag my husband...let's see what he comes up with!
