A SUMMERHOUSE WEDDING IN W9

This intimate London affair made me realise just how quickly two perfect strangers can become your friends. I had a beautiful day at Lynda & Blair’s Maida Vale wedding, starting off in Paddington, listening to The XX in the car on the way to the ceremony with the girls, a colourful canal boat ride to Little Venice and a very crafty reception at the bright and beautiful Summerhouse. It rained & shone all day long and everyone pulled together for a little adventure. It was truly a treat.

Adrian Benn, the gregarious guitarist, provided the music…

I am always so grateful to share days like these with such lovely individuals. Lynda & Blair, you really are very fantastic which is why I cried my way through most of your wedding. I promise they were happy tears though, so thank you again for having me.

Dress: Jenny Packham // Venue: The Summerhouse, Maida Vale // Guitarist: The Amazing Adrian Benn // Planner: Rebecca at Harlequin & Romance // All the pretty little details: Little Paper Head.

Up next is a Little Venice engagement session, seeing as we’re over this side of town and we’ll see if we can squeeze in a couple more weddings before the year is out too.

  • A HUMANIST WEDDING

    A wedding in September, in a field beneath a tree, a couple stands amongst their friends, and vow into the breeze. To love one another and to cherish, to have and to hold forever tight, the band sings stay with me, I’ll stay with you, and we’re warmed by the sunlight.

    A more perfect day I could never have dreamt, so I framed these memories, of that late summer day, of Matt and of Jess, and their glorious, humanist ceremony.

  • 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?
