A CHAVENAGE HOUSE WEDDING

I fell a little bit in love with Philippa & James, during our engagement session in the summertime. Philippa is stylish and poised and has the coolest wry smile that I absolutely loved photographing, so I was certain that their Cotswolds wedding in July was going to be a treat.

You can have a look through Philippa’s blog here, over at: Inspired Winter. She’s a fashion designer, so it’s always worth stopping-by to see where she’s been looking for inspiration.

We’re just two days until the end of 2010 and I am very pleased to say that it has been astonishing. I’ve photographed more beautiful weddings than I could have dreamt of (33 to be precise), visited new countries, gasped at dresses, cried during vows, laughed aloud during speeches and witnessed some incredible moments. I am grateful to you, 2010 for all the experiences that you’ve brought me.

I’m now looking ahead to what is set to be an even more amazing year in 2011, with weddings here and abroad to look forward to alongside a mountain of portrait sessions with more interesting individuals. We’re slowing the pace a little in the next few weeks, but there is still a lot to come.

  • THE PERFECT ELOPEMENT

    I often get asked what my best ever wedding was to photograph. I think people expect me to say ‘the one at Westminster Abbey’ or ‘the little one in Italy’, when really my most favourite weddings, however cliché, are the ones that are all about love. Venues are chic and expensive dresses are beautiful, but give me a couple happy and in love and I couldn’t ask for anything more. These two individuals decided to elope. They chose a place where they could exchange their vows and spend the weekend, calm and content. They chose their outfits, the day for their promises and then they chose me. I really couldn’t be more grateful sharing days like these.

  • THANK YOU, MARTHA STEWART WEDDINGS

    I am hugely honoured and incredibly flattered to have been included in Martha Stewart Weddings’ Top Wedding Photographers list! It’s an accolade I would never have dreamt of, but thanks to the exceptionally generous team at Martha Stewart Weddings (I’m looking at you ladies, Shira & Darcy) I find myself unbelievably listed among my inspirations…

    You can download the pretty Spring issue here and if you’d like to see a printed copy, there will be ten on the shelves of my office. And one in a gold frame, too.  Is it too early in the day for a champagne celebration..?

  • A ONCE WED FEATURE

    I had both the lovely Emily at Once Wed and the incredibly cool Kat at RockNRollBride both write beautiful features on my most recent wedding. I will admit that I thought this would be a popular one when I spoke to Ella about Sam’s suit and pried some details from her about that dress. I didn’t know though, that she was going to look as amazing as she did, nor that there would be a surprise song during the wedding…

    It’s always excellent when I have my work featured, but to have a double post between the US and the UK was really exciting. I know a lot of my ideal brides look to Once Wed for inspiration, as do I as a photographer, so it’s been great to organise meets with a whole new audience. I have an exceptionally busy next few weeks on my hands!

    If you missed Ella & Sam’s posts online, you can still catch up with Once Wed and RockNRoll Bride too.
    Thank you both, for your beautiful posts.
  • A WEDDING MAGAZINE FEATURE

    It’s Tara & Lawrence’s anniversary this month; what nicer way to celebrate than their wedding in print! I like that they used this picture of their balloons, which I brought along for Tara as a gift that morning.

    Thanks Wedding magazine for a very cool feature!

  • A YOU & YOUR WEDDING FEATURE

    I am always thrilled to see my work in magazines and doubly excited when the bride is as excitable as the very lovely Jo. The Scoones had a very colourful summer wedding in Kent last year and it was an absolute treat to photograph.

    You can see their feature in the latest copy of You & Your Wedding, January/February. What a brilliant start to the year for us both!

    I am very lucky to have had some incredible support from magazines such as the British Journal of Photography, You & Your Wedding, Cosmopolitan Bride and Wedding magazine over the past twelve months. I’m also very grateful to some truly beautiful blogs too; Once Wed, Style Me Pretty & here on our very own Great British Isles, Rock N Roll Bride, Before the Big Day, Belle Amour & Love My Dress have all been very lovely to me too.

    I have another thirteen weddings to blog from last year, alongside a couple of engagement sessions too. I do so love this quieter time of year; spending lots of time talking to my summer brides, booking flights for foreign weddings and wandering around town taking portraits.

    My next wedding isn’t until March, in the very beautiful Stockholm; one of my favourite cities in the world, where absolutely everyone is beautiful. It’s absolutely true and I’ll prove it!
