AN AUSTRALIAN WEDDING IN BANGALOW

A little while later in between some time on the beach, Melanie & Duncan held their wedding in Bangalow, surrounded by their nearest and dearest. The Valiant was there and so were we and it was truly lovely.

We miss you two but know that life in Sydney suits you so well and that long holidays in Europe are worth looking forward to.

This week is another busy one with lots of editing ahead; a portrait shoot for the lovely Georgia, finishing up a beautiful wedding at One Marylebone, shooting a party for my friend Rosie and photographing a very exciting secret garden gig for Matt Corby. There’s a lot to look forward to.

  • A NOTE TO YOU, WINTER

    When it’s cold and it’s cloudy and the sun sets in the day, and it’s too dark too early and snow’s on it’s way, you declare you hate winter and you’ll move to warmer climes and spend the rest of your days living in summertime… and then there are these two and they marry in London town and the sun makes it’s debut just before it’s heading down, and suddenly everything is really quite fine and you decide to wait it out until that Great British springtime.

    I have quite a love-hate relationship with winter, which mostly lies heavily on the hate side of things. The cold and the frost and the dusting off the faux fur and the boots and the heater and the dark at 3pm… and then just when you think you’ve had enough, there are daffodils and afternoon rays and that one sunny morning where you got your freckles back.

    I’m photographing my first spring wedding of the year this afternoon and I couldn’t be more excited. I’ve taken a few weeks out lately to spend time with my family and have also squeezed in time for a few film family portrait sessions, with a little help from my new best friends at UK Film Lab. I’ve also had time to catch up on all the things I leave til winter, like kissing friends’ brand new babies and reading Vanity Fair… Maybe winter isn’t quite as bad as I like to make out.

  • A HAMPSHIRE WEDDING

    ~
    Carey and James are a lovely, down-to-earth couple who got married in the first week in June. They held their reception at the very stylish Anchor Inn in the very quaint Hampshire, out in the English countryside. I have never been to such a fantastic pub in all of my life and I’m not proud to admit that I’ve visited a fair few. We had such beautiful weather that everyone was in the highest of spirits, which really made for quite the perfect day.

  1. Beautiful in every way and so much happiness captured. My favourite is the big vertical BW shot during the ceremony. And what a stunning dress!

  2. Thank you Chloe! We were SO incredibly lucky to have you as our Guest & Photographer…& a cheeky one of us is the icing on the cake! Thank you again & I’ll be sure to welcome you back very soon for your next Australian Wedding…xxx

  3. Magic, Magic, Magic. For a while I could make excuses and dream that perhaps the reason why you took all the beautiful photos you did must be because of the magic hemisphere that you lived in. But after this wedding I have no excuses. The exact same exquisite pretty on our shores as beautifully as you do it on your own. Not to mention you are ADORABLE. Love love xo

  4. such gorgeous photos Chloe – that pic of the bride with her dad is my absolute fave, so much happiness.. xxx

  5. Memories aided by photos last generations and give joy to one and all. Melanie and Duncan are truly suited to each other, may their love grow over the years. To see all our extended family together in one beautiful location was priceless for me and Phil, thank you Chloe. By the way Melanie’s killer pins are inherited from her mother…her stunning shoes fit me too!
