A CASTELLI WEDDING IN ROME

A few years ago I moved to Italy and fell in love with Rome. Then I met an Australian and fell in love with him, moved back to London to get married and accidentally left a little bit of me behind. Returning to Rome to photograph a wedding was fantastic, but returning to Rome to photograph a wedding atop a castle was the icing on the cake.

It is always a treat to travel for weddings, but particularly special when you go back to somewhere a little bit sentimental. Vi rigranzio, Nicola & Gillian for having me photograph your beautiful Roman wedding.

Next up is something more recent, from January of this year. A tiny wedding of five in Byron Bay Australia with a valiant, a lighthouse and a whole lot of love.

    Two teenage sweethearts fall in love, at fifteen they share their first kiss. They promise to be together forever and pledge to stay true to this. Fast forward ten years, a ring she now wears, a wedding at Sheldon Manor they plan. On the twenty-third of June, another kiss is had and a lady makes a husband of her man. It rains and it showers and umbrellas are opened, as are the hearts of these two. We smile and we swoon because we’re all pretty privileged, to witness Clare & Rich say that they do…

  • A CHATEAU GRIMALDI WEDDING

    At this beautiful late-summer wedding in Provence, the sun shone bright and bold and friends by the dozen flew all the way to France, to witness C & D’s vows be told. We clapped and we cheered and the mothers smiled wide, and everyone sipped champagne before supper outside…

  • 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.

  • LATELY…

    …I have been seeing a lot of the sea.

    An intimate wedding in Mallorca and an engagement session in Brighton has made it an exceptionally good week. Both had sunshine and couples really very much in love.

    Today I’m going to be far away from the sea in the Great British city of London, photographing a wedding where Shakespeare used to wet his whistle. It’s raining and grey but I always feel like weddings are so much bigger than the weather. Two beautiful people are today committing themselves to each other, for life. Their friends and family will witness it all, smiling, laughing, drinking champagne, we’ll all eat cake, dance and celebrate. Really then, who cares if it rains?

  • A WEDDING AT ST PAULS

    Rae is the kind of person who makes you laugh with one sly look and she found her perfect match in Bill. They live in New York, but chose to get married in London at The Crypt in St Paul’s Cathedral as Bill’s lovely mum has an MBE, which is like a VIP pass for St Paul’s. I am so glad to have met them both and to have shared in their wedding day. It was grey and windy, but to me they proved that it doesn’t matter one tiny bit. They were getting married and that’s all that really counts, right?
