A GOODWOOD HOUSE WEDDING

An elegant winter wedding at the quintessentially English Goodwood House

 

Venue: Goodwood House // Dress: Raimon Bundo at Mirror Mirror // Bridesmaid’s dress: Two Birds // Groom’s suit: Cad & The Dandy // Floral Design: Spriggs Florist //

I had the pleasure of photographing L’s sister’s wedding near St Tropez a few years ago. L wore a beautiful Vivienne Westwood design which I immediately recognised and naturally began to covet and so a bond was struck. A few years later we were accidental north London neighbours and I was thrilled when L&M got in touch to enquire about their wedding at Goodwood House. It’s not often that you have sunshine on an English winter’s day but L&M’s beautiful early November wedding at Goodwood was timed to perfection in this incredibly sophisticated setting. If you’re planning a spring, summer, autumn or winter wedding, I couldn’t recommend it more highly.

This week is a busy one with a trip to Annecy tomorrow via Geneva for a portrait session and back for a day’s editing before an early start to Nice for a wedding at the Villa Ephrussi du Rothschild. I have been so desperate to photograph a wedding there for years and it looks like my virtuous patience has finally paid off!

I’m dashing back home on Saturday morning to celebrate seven whole years of marriage to my most favourite person on earth. Where do the years go? It will be a decade together at the end of summer and I can’t imagine what life would sound like without him.

Up next, a pretty London wedding at Dartmouth House. Think September sunshine and mile-wide smiles.

    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.

    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.

  • A WALK AROUND PARIS

    I was so excited to have been recommended by the most incredible photographer Michele M Waite, to photograph Jamie & Steven whilst honeymooning in Paris. Steven is a wedding-planning, dress-designing, cake-making, husband extraordinaire and Jamie is quite possibly the prettiest, sweetiest and most charming lady you could ever hope to meet. We walked around town drinking coffee, buying sweets and taking photos. This really is my job, but it certainly doesn’t feel like work when you’re photographing these two in your very favourite city.

    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 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.
