A GREEN PARK ENGAGEMENT

Megan & Nathan are two very lovely friends of mine and so I couldn’t be happier to be photographing their London wedding this afternoon. Megan is the nicest person and Nathan is both kind and generous and really makes her giggle, so today is guaranteed to be beautiful. Nathan proposed with a bottle of vintage champagne on the deck chairs in Green Park, which made it a particularly special spot to return to for their pre-wedding photos.

I think it’s safe to say that this afternoon is going to be gorgeous.

    …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?

    I am thrilled to have had a few very lovely features in some of our best British bridal magazines over the past couple of months.

    You & Your Wedding’s current September/October issue features the beautiful Matt & Jess whose wedding at The House Meadow I photographed last September. Their outdoor humanist wedding was picture perfect.

  • HELLO ELIJAH

    It’s taken me quite some time to pull this post together. I’ve had mixed emotions about sharing something so personal belonging to my clients, but they asked me to when they saw them and I feel like sharing something different today.

    I had never really thought so much about photographing a birth until I was asked by my two beautiful friends. I was worried I would be in the way, that their memories would be of me and my camera and not of the birth of their first child and also selfishly, that it might put me off having my own children… I wasn’t, they aren’t and it didn’t.

    I was the first person to ever take a photograph of this human being. Hello, Elijah.

    I know he can’t really see but at four minutes old, he looked straight at me.

    Kristina, you have never been more beautiful than you were on 21st January at 7.09am. You know that I am in total awe of you both and that I’m so grateful to have been asked to be there with you, camera in hand. You are simply incredible, made of the most inspiring things and I love you very much.

    I’m away this week for a couple of days, spending time with my ma and sister. It’s times like these that reaffirm just how special a family is.

  • A JUBILANT JUNE

    The middle of the year is always the best, bare legs with picnics on the heath for a rest. A trip to Tuscany to spend time with these two, as they wed at an altar with a beautiful view. Two more pretty weddings, so much light and good cheer and the sun setting late at this time of year. Twelve months more marriage tucked under our belt, we wrap presents, write cards to pen things that we’ve felt. Sometimes we party with our family and friends or travel to an island where the sea never ends. This year we did both and we found a new home, London bricks & mortar to call our very own. A jubiliant June it really has been, an excellent first half of my twenty fourteen.
