Ian Bursill Photography bio picture

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to my blog site.

I am a documentary wedding photographer based in Loughborough, Leicestershire and a fully active member of the international organisation the WPJA - Wedding Photojournalist Association. I shoot weddings in a documentary style with no intervention or intrusion (apart from a few formals if requested) enabling my clients and their guests to get on enjoy their day without worrying about the photography taking over.

I shoot digitally, working with professional Nikon D3 cameras and lenses. 99% of my images are captured without the use of a flash, preferring to utilise the beauty of natural light. This also enables me to remain very unobtrusive at weddings.

Adam and Astrid – Sutton Bonington Hall, Leicestershire

It was back yet again to Sutton Bonington Hall on the 16th October for the wedding of Adam & Astrid. A few pics from the day follow to narrate the day. If you are wondering about the log cutting image, that is a German tradition called “Das Sägen”. After the ceremony, the bride and groom face their first challenge as a couple. They must saw through a heavy log on two sawhorses, with a whipsaw. This requires their working together, as the saw only cuts when pulled in either direction. It symbolises the couple’s ability to solve problems together.
