Jessica O\u2019Shaughnessy Photography<\/a><\/h2>\n

\"Manchester<\/p>\n

Hello, I\u2019m Jess & I truly believe that photography is absolutely NOT the most important part of your wedding day.<\/p>\n

I probably shouldn\u2019t say it but it\u2019s true!<\/p>\n

The important parts are when your tummies are full of butterflies and your eyes meet for the first time down the aisle. When your best pals squeeze you so tight that you nearly lose your Prosecco. When you get confetti in your ears, eyes, nose, mouth, (bra.) When your nan holds your hand a smiles up at you proudly. When your friends and family pile onto the dance floor after your first dance & you don\u2019t even notice.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re stood in a line pulling a cheesy grin for most of your day, or working through an endless list of \u201cmust-have-photographs\u201d that you\u2019ve found online, you\u2019re going to miss out on all of these precious moments. The ones that you\u2019ll go on to treasure for a lifetime. And whilst you\u2019re making those memories, I\u2019ll be snapping away making sure you\u2019ve got them saved for the rest of your days.<\/p>\n

Those are the images you\u2019ll want to look back on.<\/p>\n

I can absolutely guarantee that if you\u2019re letting your hair down & having a ball with your nearest and dearest, it\u2019ll shine through in your photographs. And that\u2019s all the effort you guys should need to make.<\/p>\n

So if you plan to spend your day laughing hard, squeezing tight & dancing till dawn, get in touch!<\/p>\n

P.S I\u2019m obsessed with colour<\/p>\n
