Our awesome underwater Save The Date wedding cards…
Posted on September 5, 2010 | 6 Comments
Our awesome underwater wedding save the date cards – they came out way better than we expected! Thanks to my lady Siobhan for all her hard work hand making every single one. We hired a swimming pool for a couple of hours which was fortunately quite close to where we live, and borrowed the underwater help of Siobhan’s brother and his underwater camera kit. We used a Canon G10 and a underwater strobe for these pics, I dialled in the settings on the camera to how I wanted it to work, and handed the camera to Gords who took the shots until we got something we liked. We made Siobhan a ‘dress’ by using a 4 metre length of white satin, clipped together with pins and the help of our friend Louise, who helped Siobhan not drown in a mass of heavy satin. I went out and bought some cheap black trousers, shirt and tie – an odd feeling being in a pool fully dressed with a tie. I then processed the images in Lightroom, and got them printed by moo.com, and then Siobhan then blended brown ink onto the back of each and every one, until we got the desired effect. I think they turned out brilliantly, thanks Vaughn.
