A YEAR IN REVIEW

A year of celebration, commitments made true, huge declarations of love & forty I Dos. The taking of photos, memories made & then framed, this is the joy occupying most of my days. Four seasons fly past us, a whole three-six-five days, our hearts leap & they sink in a myriad of ways. Take nothing for granted, hold everyone close, is the lesson that this year has taught me the most. So we love and we rally and we choose to live well and look back at the stories that the year had to tell…

And so we look forward, bid farewell to twenty sixteen, I wish you love and good light for your twenty seventeen.

  • AN ENGLISH COUNTRY WEDDING

    One afternoon with sunshine, a day in late May, I drove all the way to Sussex to photograph a wedding day. Ollie & Mels declared their union be one, so we all came together and smiled in unison. Some words were exchanged, hands were squeezed in delight, it really was so beautiful to watch these two unite.  Two families together and a plethora of friends, a party for two people and a dance at the end…

  • 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.

  • MY 2009 IN WEDDINGS

    Well, what a beautiful year it has been.
    ..
    I’ve worked hard as a Picture Editor during the week and managed to photograph my first five weddings on the weekends, too. I’ve made so many new friends and so many photos…  and I’ve loved it all.

    I am thrilled to have had a few very lovely features in some of our best British bridal magazines over the past couple of months.

    You & Your Wedding’s current September/October issue features the beautiful Matt & Jess whose wedding at The House Meadow I photographed last September. Their outdoor humanist wedding was picture perfect.

  • A UNION CLUB SOHO WEDDING

    One day in October, in the centre of town, Amy & Duncan got ready, arrived and said vows. Before friends and their family, their loved ones and mates, they made a promise of union and an unending date. They kissed and we clapped, a tear may have been shed, they drank and they laughed, as do newlyweds. An evening of celebration and of wishing them well, my hundred or so favourites, their short story they tell.

  • 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.
