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.

  • ALBUMS & HEIRLOOMS

    I try to be a wedding photographer that I myself would like to have had, so when I put together packages I take into consideration what creative brides may like and what they might like to organise themselves. I provide high-resolution images on memory sticks to all of my couples, so they’re able to print and share their photos as they wish, with the option to order custom-designed albums if they would like them too.photographer wedding albums

  • 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…

  • THE PERFECT ELOPEMENT

    I often get asked what my best ever wedding was to photograph. I think people expect me to say ‘the one at Westminster Abbey’ or ‘the little one in Italy’, when really my most favourite weddings, however cliché, are the ones that are all about love. Venues are chic and expensive dresses are beautiful, but give me a couple happy and in love and I couldn’t ask for anything more. These two individuals decided to elope. They chose a place where they could exchange their vows and spend the weekend, calm and content. They chose their outfits, the day for their promises and then they chose me. I really couldn’t be more grateful sharing days like these.

  • AN APRIL ESCAPE

    One week in April, we escaped to blue skies, a trip with no emails, just my husband and I. Some Arabic was learnt, pronunciation attempted, some photos were taken and our pockets were emptied. We ate and we wandered, for a few days we stayed, we were still for a moment and these memories we made.
