This here is Miki. On the day of her wedding, she got dressed on a boat and it was bright and fresh and the view was so incredible. It was at this moment that I got a little bit awestruck. Isn’t she just beautiful?
I’m not sure that there is a better place to get ready for your wedding, than right by the sea.
I had a 4.30am start this morning for my first ever sunrise session and I’m up again at 3am for a flight to Mallorca. I am tired and I better get packing.
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…
Megan & Nathan got married on a sweet, still day in May. I started the morning with Megan at the Haymarket Hotel where she was getting ready with a pretty little entourage of glamorous friends and family.

Thank you Meg & Nate, for inviting us as guests and for having me photograph your lovely wedding.
In the five weeks since I last blogged, I have photographed four weddings in London, a wedding in Tuscany and a wedding in Rome atop a castle. I’ve been to the south of France, fallen in love with St Tropez, photographed an intimate elopement, flown back to Tuscany to photograph another sweet little wedding, and spent two glorious days in the unexpected London sunshine with a wedding at Northbook Park and a very first True Mod wedding.
We’ll be making up for lost time next week with a glamorous wedding in Provence, full of sunshine, smiles and our ever-gorgeous Georgia.
…we have flown 9475km, driven 3750km, spent 17 nights in 10 different hotels, squeezed 14 newly weds, cried at 7 weddings, sat on 6 planes, spoken four different languages (at questionable degrees of fluency), travelled with three different loved ones as dutiful assistants and are now two very happy and grateful photographers. It’s been one really busy past month, but it’s also been so worth it.
Here’s a little look at what we’ve been up to.
My first wedding in Amalfi, for two very beautiful people…
An engagement session in Paris for the gorgeous Janice & Michael…
Followed by their intimate wedding in Provence…
This glamorous wedding near Dijon for the very dapper Nicolas & the exceptional Alexandra…
And I finished up in España with elegant Alia & dashing Pierre’s fantastic wedding in Spain…
It has been a beyond beautiful month for us both and it looks like it’s set to last. We’re off to two lovely weddings in Ascot & Wiltshire today, a little bit closer to home.
Have a lovely weekend one and all and an especially happy anniversary to you, Husband.
Three years of marriage and you’re still here! I love you immensely. x
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!

There has been a lot going on in these parts over the last few months… Here are all of the features I’ve been lucky enough to have lately, in a few of my favourite British bridal titles and some brilliant new online magazines too.
Jing had her bridal style featured in You & Your Wedding’s pretty July / August issue:
Beautiful, you have such style, you capture the very essence of the moment
well done
Oh wow. Reminds me of Elisabeth Messina’s work xxx
Oh cannot wait to see more Chloe! What a great idea for getting ready!
Well and truly, just so totally, beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful and cannot wait to see more! x
Wow, if ever I get to have photos of me like this, I’ll be soooo happy!
