A HUMANIST WEDDING IN SURREY

When you’re invited for lunch with a soon bride-to-be and she shows you her beautiful home, you  talk through her plans and quickly it feels like she’s someone you’ve always known. A captivating couple, with plans so exciting, you have an idea this might well be, a day to remember in the middle of summer, James and Marina, I salute thee.

This woodland wedding really was a highlight of my year. With all that light and a couple so in love, what more could I have asked for? This beautiful wedding is also making a debut over on the spectacular Snippet & Ink, where Marina has written a little about their day.

    I am hugely honoured and incredibly flattered to have been included in Martha Stewart Weddings’ Top Wedding Photographers list! It’s an accolade I would never have dreamt of, but thanks to the exceptionally generous team at Martha Stewart Weddings (I’m looking at you ladies, Shira & Darcy) I find myself unbelievably listed among my inspirations…

    You can download the pretty Spring issue here and if you’d like to see a printed copy, there will be ten on the shelves of my office. And one in a gold frame, too.  Is it too early in the day for a champagne celebration..?

  • A LENNOXLOVE WEDDING

    Lucy & Rob are exceptional individuals. Funny, charming and disarmingly sweet, their wedding day back in July was well worth the trip up to Edinburgh and back. The sun was shining, the martinis flowed and at the end of the evening, we put down our cameras, picked up a glass and stayed for a dance with our two new friends.

    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.

  1. I love love love this! I am after a woodland wedding and I live in Guildford. I was wondering if there was any way I could have the location of the venue as this looks just perfect! Thank you!
