A WEDDING AT ST PAULS

Rae is the kind of person who makes you laugh with one sly look and she found her perfect match in Bill. They live in New York, but chose to get married in London at The Crypt in St Paul’s Cathedral as Bill’s lovely mum has an MBE, which is like a VIP pass for St Paul’s. I am so glad to have met them both and to have shared in their wedding day. It was grey and windy, but to me they proved that it doesn’t matter one tiny bit. They were getting married and that’s all that really counts, right?

You’re not really allowed to take photos after this point, but if you’re really very nice and a little bit wily, you can just about sneak in a couple of frames before an eyebrow gets raised.

The ever-lovely Penny at Tiger Lily Weddings worked exceptionally hard on this wedding to make sure that everything looked beautiful and ran like clockwork. We love Penny a lot.

Emma Jane & I both photographed this wedding as a joint labour of love. It’s so nice having her alongside me on bigger weddings and I’m not sure you could tell our work apart, could you? She’s like my sexier Swedish twin.

This week has been full of delivering wedding edits, exciting new bookings for 2012 and a little bit of time for reflection too. I’m heading to Italy on Thursday and I’m so excited to have the opportunity to photograph a wedding in Rome on Saturday. I haven’t been back since I moved home to London three years ago to marry that husband of mine. I can’t wait to wander those cobbles and go back to La Scala and Gusto, my very favourite restaurants.

I also have a portrait session on Friday for a special Romana very close to my heart. It’s going to be an excellent weekend.

    In the summertime, when we still had lots of sunshine, Tiffany & Albert flew to London for a holiday and got in touch for a portrait session. I suggested we take their photos in Richmond and so we had a chilled out afternoon walking along the river all the way down to Petersham and back. Two perfect strangers even invited us into their beautiful house overlooking the river, to make use of their balcony. It was a calm, sweet afternoon.

  • 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.

  • A MAUNSEL HOUSE WEDDING

    A pretty weekend in Somerset, where the sky shone down so bright. A man and a woman were dressed to be married, beneath sunshine and perfect light. Four bridesmaids, three speeches, two families, one day, these two made me smile deep inside. This is the job that I love so much, picture memories of a groom and his bride.

  • AN APRIL ESCAPE

    One week in April, we escaped to blue skies, a trip with no emails, just my husband and I. Some Arabic was learnt, pronunciation attempted, some photos were taken and our pockets were emptied. We ate and we wandered, for a few days we stayed, we were still for a moment and these memories we made.

Shooting their photobooth was such fun, both Bill and Rae were so lovely and I wish them both all the best in their future together. Bet they’re blown away by their images :-)
