Being commissioned to photograph a wedding in Bali was an absolute dream come true and I couldn’t be more grateful to M&E for taking me with them. Capturing this wedding at the beautiful Alila Manggis was such a privilege and watching M&E kick up their heels for their first dance had me beaming behind my camera. Those guys really know how to dance!

This week sees a return to photographing weddings with my first wedding of the year at the Langdale Chase hotel in Winderemere. I’ve never been to the Lake District before but shall be packing seventeen pairs of socks and some hiking boots to fill these London lungs with some really fresh air. For a few behind the scenes, follow me over on Instagram.

  • A CASTELLI WEDDING IN ROME

    A few years ago I moved to Italy and fell in love with Rome. Then I met an Australian and fell in love with him, moved back to London to get married and accidentally left a little bit of me behind. Returning to Rome to photograph a wedding was fantastic, but returning to Rome to photograph a wedding atop a castle was the icing on the cake.

  • AU REVOIR, OCTOBER

    Summer is over, autumn has arrived and the busiest months of shooting, I seem to have survived…

    October on Instagram was pretty eventful… a great deal of happiness was found with a trip to Bali to photograph a very, very beautiful wedding day, a hair-raising trip to Gilli Trawangan and a few days of peace and quiet before the 24-hour round trip back to London. I still have so much editing to catch up on, but it felt a little rude not to bid a fond farewell to the incredibly special month that was October. 

  • HOW TO GET GREAT WEDDING PHOTOS

    I was really thrilled to have been asked to contribute some advice to You & Your Wedding’s photography special and especially honoured to see that my thoughts were sat alongside some very highly esteemed UK photographers too.


    Wedding photography is obviously hugely important to me, but whether I’m photographing your wedding or not, I still want you to have beautiful photos. Those are heirlooms you’ll frame and hang and share, so they should be beautiful. Over the past 50 weddings, I’ve learnt that every single wedding is different, but having guidelines to work with for your photos certainly helps. The article covers all sorts of aspects like deciding on a style, choosing your photographer, allocating a budget and most importantly, timings. Pick up a copy of the most recent You & Your Wedding for some invaluable advice.

    I’m heading to Edinburgh at the end of the week, for a very lovely country wedding at Lennoxlove House. I returned home from Crete this morning fresh off an Easyjet red-eye, to a huge mountain of editing and emailing but it’s always so good to be home.

  • A RANGERS HOUSE WEDDING

    You might recognise this bride from a wedding I photographed in September for her sister, with the red shoes. It turns out that style runs in the family…

    I don’t think I could write enough to explain how special it really was. Not only was Sam the most besotted groom, he laughed and joked all day in his bow tie and floral shirt, whilst Ella beamed and grinned and looked amazing at their very emotional English Heritage wedding in Greenwich. It was then off to the local wine vaults for a secret dinner, decked out with candles and hand-chosen gifts for everyone.
    …
    Such beautiful people, such beautiful details, such a beautiful day. Thank you both so much for letting me record it for you; it was an absolute honour.

  • ALEXANDRA & NICHOLAS’ FRENCH WEDDING

    A day of smiles, excitement and laughter, two promises to hold fast and a happily ever after. Alex & Nic, their beautiful families, my cameras and I and their friends from overseas. We all came together for a most emotional day, we watched and we clapped, we sang and we swayed. It felt like a film, the band played J’ysuis Jamais Allé and it became the soundtrack to a most incredible day…

  • A JUBILANT JUNE

    The middle of the year is always the best, bare legs with picnics on the heath for a rest. A trip to Tuscany to spend time with these two, as they wed at an altar with a beautiful view. Two more pretty weddings, so much light and good cheer and the sun setting late at this time of year. Twelve months more marriage tucked under our belt, we wrap presents, write cards to pen things that we’ve felt. Sometimes we party with our family and friends or travel to an island where the sea never ends. This year we did both and we found a new home, London bricks & mortar to call our very own. A jubiliant June it really has been, an excellent first half of my twenty fourteen.
