A BORDEAUX CHATEAU WEDDING

One cool, cloudy day in September, Alana & Anthony were wed. I boarded a flight for their wedding in France, it was going to be rad, they had said. For an intimate outdoor wedding, from Australia they all flew, she beamed and she laughed and she didn’t stop smiling and Anthony was pretty chuffed too.

Venue: Chateau de la Couronne, the Dordogne, France.

Alana & Anthony’s French wedding was also featured in the Cosmopolitan Bride Australia’s Best of Real Weddings, 2013! Thank you to Franki Hobson and the team for the feature and for kindly posting me this bumper issue, too.

Things in London have taken a much needed turn for the brighter, with the return of the sunshine this week. Trees are finally starting to blossom, legs are seeing some sunshine and I have taken to doing all of my admin in the garden.

Tomorrow, I’m off to photograph the very gorgeous Greg & Lindsi get married at Nutfield Priory and this weekend Emma Jane is getting fitted for her wedding dress. Four months and counting!

  • A WEDDING IN ZURICH

    I am very lucky to be able to photograph weddings such as these. Sweet, intimate and so full of love and smiles. It also happened to be in Zürich, a city I had not visited until July. I think I’m in love with Switzerland.

    Getting ready together, they were both the picture of calm…

    …with a little edge of excitement.

    Swiss civil ceremonies last just fifteen minutes, even when in French and English, which leaves plenty of time for tea and sightseeing on vintage trams…

    There is something so special about grandparents. This lady reminded me of my own grandma and squeezed my hand and beamed when she caught my eye. She also had the cutest granddaughter who was not in the least bit fatigued by the blazing sunshine.

    Thanh has a passion for all things culinary and gave everyone tiny kitchen utensils as gifts.

    Isn’t she just the sweetest little thing?

    After our trip to Switzerland, we’ve decided that one day we’ll move to Zürich and have lunch by the lake on Sundays with our new friends Thanh & Yvan. It’s a truly beautiful place; fresh and clean and content.

    I still have a lot of editing to catch up on and a few more weddings and portraits to do before the year is out. I’m quite sad to see the autumn leaves on the ground but glad to have time to catch up on things through winter. It’s been a year of big changes, exciting challenges and huge rewards, but there’s a little more on all of that later.

    Do you remember James & Philippa’s exceptionally stylish Cotswolds wedding? Philippa poured a huge amount of time and effort into the design and styling of the day, so we were both thrilled that the ever stylish You & Your Wedding magazine wanted to feature it in their May/June issue. It even scored a two-page spread!

  • A BUSY THREE WEEKS

    Here’s a sneak of what I’ve been doing over the past twenty-one days.

    Some portraits in Paris…

    Back to London for some pre-wedding photos on Columbia Road…

    A walk along the river after a wedding at St Paul’s…

    And a weekend in Portugal.

    It’s been a very busy three weeks, but the next two are a little calmer with portraits and engagements and a lot of editing to do, before a wedding very close to my heart. I’m also going to be photographing this little beauty, our very own London Bride.
