A WEDDING AT THE ICA LONDON

An eclectic, summer city wedding at London’s iconic Institute of Contemporary Arts

Venue: Institute of Contemporary Arts // Dress: Kobus Dippenaar from Morgan Davies Bridal // Groom’s Suit: Ted Baker // Flowers: Fairy Nuff Flowers //Hair & Make Up: Sam Sham // Cake topper & table numbers: Better Off Wed // Red Velvet Wedding Cake: Bea’s Cake Boutique

I loved photographing this fantastic wedding at the ICA. Those tall ceilings, all that natural light and the neutral canvas of the ICA make it an incredible venue for a personal London wedding and Anne-Marie & Allan went all-out to make their day a reflection of them and all the things they loved. The flowers were a definite highlight with a cascade wall back-drop for their ceremony and florals galore for both the ceremony and reception. I particularly loved how doting Allan is and how laid-back Anne-Marie was. They really were such a pleasure to photograph and I’m thrilled to be seeing them again at his sister’s wedding this summer. If you would like to read more about Anne-Marie & Allan’s plans, check out their feature over on You & Your Wedding.

The past few weeks have been particularly busy with two weddings abroad in Italy and Menorca with a few days on the Cinque Terre thrown in for good measure. It can’t be all work and no play…

Up next is a super-sophisticated wedding at Goodwood House in Sussex in some incredibly rare winter sunshine.

  • A HUMANIST WEDDING

    A wedding in September, in a field beneath a tree, a couple stands amongst their friends, and vow into the breeze. To love one another and to cherish, to have and to hold forever tight, the band sings stay with me, I’ll stay with you, and we’re warmed by the sunlight.

    A more perfect day I could never have dreamt, so I framed these memories, of that late summer day, of Matt and of Jess, and their glorious, humanist ceremony.

  • A TRIP TO CAPE TOWN

    A couple of months ago, we went to Cape Town, for Richard & Sanchia’s wedding and decided to make a really good holiday of it. On our first day, we rushed down to a beach bar to have cocktails in the setting sun with the very lovely Emma Norén and her handsome Ricky.

    This is my first photo taken with her beautiful Rolleiflex-there’s something sweet about taking a photographer’s photo. Emma photographed our wedding last year and for that, I adore her. We had so much organised for when we visited Cape Town, looking back at all the photos, I am amazed we fitted it all in.

    I’m now off away again for a few days, this time to Sicily to eat, sleep and take photos. Then I’m back to work on two weddings next week, in Covent Garden and the country. It’s going to be a really good week.
  • IN THE PAST MONTH

    …we have flown 9475km, driven 3750km, spent 17 nights in 10 different hotels, squeezed 14 newly weds, cried at 7 weddings, sat on 6 planes, spoken four different languages (at questionable degrees of fluency), travelled with three different loved ones as dutiful assistants and are now two very happy and grateful photographers. It’s been one really busy past month, but it’s also been so worth it.

    Here’s a little look at what we’ve been up to.

    My first wedding in Amalfi, for two very beautiful people…

    An engagement session in Paris for the gorgeous Janice & Michael…

    Followed by their intimate wedding in Provence…

     This glamorous wedding near Dijon for the very dapper Nicolas & the exceptional Alexandra…

    And I finished up in España with elegant Alia & dashing Pierre’s fantastic wedding in Spain…

    It has been a beyond beautiful month for us both and it looks like it’s set to last. We’re off to two lovely weddings in Ascot & Wiltshire today, a little bit closer to home.

    Have a lovely weekend one and all and an especially happy anniversary to you, Husband.

    Three years of marriage and you’re still here! I love you immensely. x

  • A GREEN PARK ENGAGEMENT

    Megan & Nathan are two very lovely friends of mine and so I couldn’t be happier to be photographing their London wedding this afternoon. Megan is the nicest person and Nathan is both kind and generous and really makes her giggle, so today is guaranteed to be beautiful. Nathan proposed with a bottle of vintage champagne on the deck chairs in Green Park, which made it a particularly special spot to return to for their pre-wedding photos.
