Once upon a time, Claire Lewis dreamed she would take her camera to war zones to document political upheavals and expose grave injustices. Fate led her elsewhere. And while she might not be on assignment for The New York Times, her current job carries its own dangers: Claire is a wedding photographer. Her world is populated by stressed-out brides and the mothers who reared them, grooms who seduce bridesmaids, brides who change their minds, pass out, or dance on tables in tiaras, and the occasional couple who are truly in love. If you told Claire that you thought being a wedding photographer was glamorous, chances are she’d laugh and give you a list of reasons why it is not glamorous. What it is is unpredictable, funny, demanding, moving, and full of spontaneous moments that cause one to question the nature of love and relationships. As Claire says, it’s all that and it’s never dull. What more could you ask for?
Told with great wit and exuberance, this memoir is a hilarious and touching account of one woman’s adventures in a career that she never saw herself in, and of how she braved those waters while also managing to fall in love and have a wedding of her own. A delightful, insightful read, Exposed: Confessions of a Wedding Photographer will make you see weddings in a whole new light.

Since 1963 a series of ITV programmes - one every seven years - has followed a group of people from a variety of backgrounds, to see how they have changed and developed at different stages of their lives. The first programme was called "7 Up" and this book ties in with "35 Up", which features 14 of the original 20 people. It examines what it is like to be 35 years old. Do people feel that life is just beginning, or is it already too late to achieve anything? Where would they like to be in another seven years' time, personally and professionally? These are some of the questions put to 14 very different people, providing insights into their hopes, fears, ambitions and opinions.
