The story ofyour big day...You would hope your wedding photographerwas two things, good at what they do andfriendly. Both are pretty much as importantas each other. Your wedding day is anintimate time no matter the size of the guestlist. Ultimately you need to feel that yourphotographer is part of the celebration,naturally fitting in with the wedding day andbusily yet calmly documenting those preciousmoments to be cherished forever. KeithGray is one of those photographers. Havingphotographed his first wedding over 30 yearsago, he is experienced, professional, friendlyand above all somewhat of an expert at tellingthe story of your big day.Capturing those moments that you might miss,those moments when you are busy gettingmarried, those moments where the groomlooks petrified at the alter and in love at thespeeches, those moments when the bride takesa deep breath and shuts her eyes and danceswith her shoes off at the party, those momentswhen the flower girls are chatting, when themother in law sheds a tear....all equally asprecious as the event itself and wonderful torelive through Keith's images again and againand again.Keith is keen to meet you, to find out aboutyou in order to establish a friendly relationshipbefore the big day itself; “Its important to methat we meet and discuss the style of imagesthat a couple wants. it might be contemporaryreportage style with a good mix of traditionalportraits, or they might be camera shy andsimply want me to take photographs in thebackground. Not only do we establish thistogether but we also look at the running orderof the day, the bridal parties names and aboveall I strive to make sure we feel comfortable ineach other's company.”After the big day, Keith designs a weddingbook of your images for you. More often thannot there are tears of joy when presented tothe newly married couple. “The reaction acouple have when they see their images inthe book form is what makes the whole thingso enjoyable for me. As the day progresses Ibuild a picture in my mind of what the book willlook like. The aim is to tell the story of the dayin a magical way. The result, is a very happycouple, and I get to do this as my job. Itdoesn’t get much better than that.”www.keithgray.co.uk 07967 585789BRIDAL SUITE 29

maxine MoseleyMany of my clients wish for a subtleenhancement to their lips, but are concernedabout the outcome. Also, if they will lookobvious, or ‘overdone’, like some celebritiesin the public domain. Some may have had abad experience with lip filler in the past, withpain, excessive swelling, bruising or poorfinal result.I reassure my clients that I have had thepriviledge to treat hundreds of lips, withvarious subtle techniques to get you the lookyou desire. From younger slim lips, to theageing lip, with loss of volume and verticallines around the mouth. By improving the lipcontour in the older client, the whole face canlook much more youthful.The temporary hyaluronic acid fillers I useare tissue tailored for the lip area, and createsensual, soft and hydrated lips. Also, tosupport the corners of the lips when thesebecome downturned or ‘sad’ appearance.These include Restylane Lip Hydrate,Restylane Lip Volume, Juvederm Ultra Smileand Juvederm Volbella.Appropriate use of botulinum toxin type A,(wrinkle relaxing treatment) can also help torelax the fine lines caused when expressingwith the mouth.I can also use a fine cannula to perform thetreatment which helps alleviate possiblebruising and swelling.Your lips are a central section of the face,people mainly look at the eyes and lips whencommunicating. It gives you confidence toknow your lips are the best that they can be.Before & AfterPlease call Maxine on 07969 199468 orcontact her on enquiries@maxinemoseley.co.uk Please visit her website atmaxinemoseley.co.ukGetting in shape for thebig dayKnowing that all eyes will be on the bride canprovide powerful motivation to get in shapebefore the big day. Unfortunately, howevermotivated we are at the beginning, our goodintentions can end up being just one morething on the huge ‘to do’ list. Here are a fewtips to help you overcome common hurdlesand stay on track to be in the best shape ofyour life when you walk down the aisle.• You are too exhausted to exercise. Jugglingwedding planning and work can make forsome very long days but being mentally tiredis not the same as being physically tired. Youneed to combat this feeling in two ways.o Try to get a good night’s sleep, as beingovertired switches on your hunger hormonesand makes healthy eating very hard.o Try to combine a little exercise and weddingplanning. This may sound mad but go for walkwith your fiancé or Mum. While you are outyou can discuss the wedding decisions thatneed to be made and get some fresh air.• You have bought your dress a size smallerthan you. Don’t panic as it is good to have atarget to aim for. You just need to break downthat target, so rather than losing 7lb, make ityour goal to get 20 minutes of exercise everyweek day and cut out processed sugar and fat.• You are too busy running errands to exercise.There is only one thing for it and that is tomake the errands the exercise. Park a littleway from your destination and power walk tothe door. Take the stairs, do lunges and squatswhile you are ironing, do a few crunches whileyou are waiting for the kettle to boil. Getcreative to fit it all in.• You don’t have time to plan your diet. Cutout variety to keep things simple. Plan just 2or 3 options for each meal and stick to themin the run up to the wedding. That way youknow you are sticking to your calorie targetbut don’t have to think too much aboutpreparation or shopping. Make sure you aregetting lots of fruit, vegetables and water andreduce your portion size for everything else.Keep some healthy snacks in your bag so youare not tempted to give in to junk.www.the-fitness-bank.co.ukTel: 0116 277 1111Alternate Number: 0116 222 7611The Fitness Bank, Unit 3, Cornwall BusinessCentre, Cornwall Road, South Wigston,Leicester, LE18 4XHChoi TimeThousand YearRed Flower£20.00Thousand YearRed Flower£20.00Single servesachets£2.00Single servesachets£2.00Choi TimeQuality chinese tea, imported for youChoi TimeThe ritual; the aroma; the flavour; all of these elements areQuality part of the tea chinese experience tea, and they imported have been for embracedyouby my family for generations.
