It was my husband who drew my attention to the irony of my last post about the Maldives - "You've called the post  'Back From Paradise' but that shot was taken on the jetty where the rubbish is taken off the island - hardly paradise!" Suzanne is an architect and wanted something a bit different for her wedding photos and told me that she didn't want 'those cheesy beach pictures' but something a bit artistic. So it's true, we headed out to some of the more 'grubbier' parts of the island to take some photos.

Suzanne and Magnus had an intimate wedding at the gorgeous Four Seasons Hotel in Lindaa Giraavaru . The monsoon rains stayed away for their celebrations and it was a stunning day, definitely worth the various flights to get there. Thank you so much for flying Simon and I out for the occasion, for being so cool about trudging out to the rubbish jetty and to your family for being so warm and welcoming. I'm going to have to do this wedding as 2 blog posts so here is part 1 for now:
