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.

  • A WEDDING AT ONE MARYLEBONE

    Kate & Tom were the first clients I met after a long flight home from Australia in January. We had a drink at The Alice House and talked for hours and I knew before I’d left, that we had become friends. Their wedding was just beautiful. Kate shone, Tom grinned, they both said I do and I cried just a little bit, from the sheer love of it all.

  • A BRIDES MAGAZINE FEATURE

    I don’t think I would have believed a little over two years ago, that I would ever have a job that I love this much. I get to meet people who trust me to photograph their beautiful weddings, full of love and laughter and tears and then, magazines ask me for those photos. I get to see my work in print. My photos sit on coffee tables, get stuffed in handbags, stuck in scrap books, but most importantly, printed and framed and put on walls to remind people of their beautiful memories.

    Here is a recent publish of Tori & Oli’s most amazing wedding last summer.

    It’s in the most recent copy of Brides magazine, which made me gasp at the shelf at WH Smiths and frantically buy two copies; one for me and one for Tori. She writes a blog called Wellies & Vogue and this is Conde Nast’s bridal title. It made me proud as punch, chuffed to pieces. I’m grinning from ear to ear right now.

    Thank you to all of the lovely ladies at Brides, who featured Tori & Oli’s wedding, as I know that they themselves are thrilled. Thank you Tori, Oli, Deborah, Hannah, Lucy and Dominique. This one here means more than I can really even begin to explain.

  • A CRETE ISLAND WEDDING

    Earlier on this year whilst on holiday in California, I travelled home via San Francisco for a meeting with these two. Nancy works with textiles and has an incredible eye for design and all things beautiful and when you talk to her, she gives you the impression of always being on the verge of bursting into laughter. Chic, cheeky & in my eyes, utterly amazing.

    I was so happy to have met them both before their wedding in Crete in June this year but even happier that the next place we met, was the night before their wedding, with all of their guests, for dinner by the sea…

  • A WEDDING IN PORTUGAL

    Jess & Ludge got married in April this year in Lourinha, Portugal and I was so grateful to have been there. Friends and family flew from Sydney, London and Paris to celebrate and it made for a beautiful reunion.

    The evening before, everyone met up for a chat and a catch up, this time in a tiny old village. We stood outside in the street, laughing and talking whilst the sun set and the bar next door sold glasses of wine for 30¢. This is the tiny village that Ludgero grew up in.


    Early the next morning, I headed out to photograph Jess getting ready with her mum, in a lovely bright hotel room. My favourite.

  • A FRENCH RIVIERA BEACH WEDDING

    It was a dream to photograph a wedding on the Cote d’azur and I was so lucky to have met these two lovelies and to have shared a very beautiful weekend with all of their important people. Elegant, sophisticated, a day full of friends and laughter, Miki and Tom held their wedding on the French riviera at L’Ecrin beach restaurant in Cannes. I think you’ll agree, it was a little bit gorgeous.
