We spoke to Clare to find out more about her business, she tells us: “I’m a professional photographer with 10 years of wedding experience and am proud to be a creator of quality artistic visuals, supported by an abundance understanding in all aspects of photography. Cumbrian born and raised, I have a willingness to push the boundaries and go the extra mile. I’m a little creative hurricane and like to live without limits! It’s important to me that you have a comprehensive narrative of your wedding, and that the story of the day is told through my pictures. I believe that whilst an image should be an honest and unscripted portrayal of a moment, it should also be thoughtfully composed and visually artistic. For me, photographs are more than just a visual, they should tell a tale, show power, personality and pureness, allow the viewer to feel emotions and embrace the artistically captured moment in time.” To find out more about Clare and see some of her work, visit www.claregelderdphotography.co.uk Take advantage of these gorgeous giveaways and fab offers Freebies & OFFERS County Wedding Magazine readers have the opportunity to win a two-night stay at either Queens Hotel Cheltenham or Castle Hotel Windsor two MGallery Hotel Collection properties.
