Wedding Photographer HMS Nelson
Wedding Photography HMS Nelson. Over the years I have photographed many memorable wedding days though the wedding at HMS Nelson of V&B will linger in the memory for a long time to come. Let’s be honest – HMS Nelson weddings are more than special. They are totally and utterly unique. After all it’s not often that a wedding photographer can brag about taking the bride and groom aboard HMS Victory for a private photo shoot. At times I found I had to pinch myself. Was this really happening? To virtually rub shoulders with one of the greatest naval heroes Lord Admiral Nelson’s uniform and to tread the boards of this incredible naval ship was an incredible experience. To photograph in the Ward Room at HMS Nelson was for me also a great, great privilege. So many amazing moments to savour. Thank you again V&B for sharing your special day with me.
