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…

The following day, in the afternoon sunshine, I wandered around to photograph some pretty things and stopped in to see Nancy getting ready.

Nancy & Elias’ uncle opened the dancefloor with a freestyle interpretation of Sex Bomb. She knows how to dance.

 

This beautiful Greek Island wedding was also featured over on Martha Stewart Weddings Bride’s Guide. You can check out their detailed selection, over here.

There are lots of thank yous to be done here: to Shira, for the feature, to Sara, for the introduction, but most importantly to you Ms Fancy Nancy, for having had me photograph your wedding, for treating us as your friends and for introducing me to some of the most beautiful people I’ve ever met. You are a vision.

Venue: Metohi Kindelis // Planner: Sara Pavlatou, SP Weddings

The past few weeks have been aflutter with meetings and bookings, from weddings at the ICA in London and as far afield as Australia. But there’s plenty more to come on that one.

  • A UNION CLUB SOHO WEDDING

    One day in October, in the centre of town, Amy & Duncan got ready, arrived and said vows. Before friends and their family, their loved ones and mates, they made a promise of union and an unending date. They kissed and we clapped, a tear may have been shed, they drank and they laughed, as do newlyweds. An evening of celebration and of wishing them well, my hundred or so favourites, their short story they tell.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • RECENT MAGAZINE FEATURES

    The May & June issue of You & Your Wedding magazine is very exciting as it features quite a few of my photos, both weddings and portraits.

    I got to meet the magazine’s new editor Maxine Briggs and spent a little while photographing her around her office. She’s very lovely and will no doubt do a tremendous job in heading up one of our favourite titles.

    I was also asked to photograph Peta who has the enviable title of editor-at-large and her very stylish fashion assistant, Alison.

    It’s always lovely for my clients to have something else to hold onto after the wedding and Clare & Rich’s Cotswolds wedding was an absolute detail-fest, just perfect for You & Your Wedding. Their beautiful wedding will be blogged soon, I promise!
