Gorgeous huh? Above is one perfectly good reason to have a couples shoot (and below are the other 19). I used to call them pre-wedding, engagement, beloved or whatever shoots but in reality they all suggest being wedding orientated. Screw that. A bit like how valentines day shouldn’t be the only time you show affection…
Todays show and tell is from Gemma and Chris’s mid April wedding in Keston. The day started with Gemma at the family home and once ready, we all walked down the road together to Herberts restaurant for the ceremony. This was a small and personal affair followed by lunch and a trip back to the…
Here are some shots from Isobel and Jonny’s wedding at Upwaltham Barns this April. They were married on a Monday which is uncommon, but their first date was on the 20th, Jonny proposed on the 20th of April and so it followed that the wedding date needed to be the same too! They both got…
Here is an epic Jewish Wedding in London for you. Shoshana and Grant were married at the West Hampstead Shul before having their reception in the Grand Ballroom at the Langham Hotel in London. I started early with Shoshana at the Langham where she was getting ready and my second, Laura was awaiting Grants arrival…
Technically we broke into the grounds of Donnington Castle. Technically. Although let me explain before I get an angry call from the folks who own it. Above you’ll see Gemma and Carl. They were married at Donnington Grove around the end of April and always spent days and dates out on the castle grounds. So…
Hintlesham Hall was the magnificent venue for this autumnal wedding, and it proved to be the perfect setting for Emma and Sam’s big day. They’re such a lovely couple, and it was a real pleasure wandering around the hall with them. The main building has stood on these grounds for hundred of years, initially as…
I’ve a thing about shooting in the Cotswolds. I like the area, the landscape and the sleepiness of the surroundings. I’m finding myself shooting more and more weddings here. I’ll shoot anywhere, but for some reason I get pulled this way a lot. The last time I was at Kingscote Barn was for a September…
Mayfair Library and Ropewalk: Day 1 Usually a wedding is a one day affair but sometimes, just sometimes a couple will split their wedding across two days and have a celebration that leaves you buzzing for ages afterwards. Gemma and Dan had their official legal ceremony in the Mayfair Library, London. The registrars were lovely.…

Originally built in Tudor times, and transformed in the eighteenth century, Firle Place in Lewes is set against the breathtaking backdrop of the South Downs. It made the perfect setting for Kate, who’s British, and American Christian’s English country wedding – giving one Trans-Atlantic romance the perfect happy ever after! Kate looked stunning, relaxed and…
Shooting a wedding abroad is always different. You’re in a foreign country, you hope the Sat Nav is correct and you get all excited over what is often your first time at a venue and what cool stuff will be there to shoot. Until Kate and Steven’s wedding in the Loire Valley I’d not been…
While many couples want to have a rural backdrop for their wedding, large towns and cities have some truly gorgeous venues too. When Cailah and Duraid got married at the University Womens Club in Mayfair I loved being able to easily find original and interesting shots at this cool and understated venue. The club’s elegant…
