Jacqui's 50th Party with "The Idle Elvis"





While I was sunning myself in Spain the other week, Jacqui rang to see if I could photograph her 50th Birthday party, which luckily was the day after my return to old Blighty.  It was going to be a fun do with Jacqui's family and friends, also with the entertainment from "The Idle Elvis", who I have seen before when I was photographing another party last year.  All the ladies love his act and soon got everyone up dancing, the atmosphere was superb, with good food and drink supplied by Heaton Tennis & Squash club.

Sharon & Paul - Holiday Inn





October comes with a heatwave and wow, was it warm.  So on Saturday, we were at the Holiday Inn at Brighouse.  Sharon was quite calm while getting ready with her lovely daughter Nicola and later on little Charlie joined us.  Sharon is the sister of my groom from several years ago, so it was good to catch up with the family again. Sharon wore a very simple and elegant dress, her hair was adorned with white roses.   Paul is quite a character and so was his bestmen and ushers, they all looked very smart in their suites.  The civil ceremony was lovely and we did think Paul was going to cry at first, he did look very nervous, but then nerves were forgotten once he saw Sharon.  Photographs were taken in the courtyard, and because of the lovely weather looked very Mediterranean at times.
