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.
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…
It’s lunchtime in London and it’s raining and grey, so I am dreaming of an evening in Crete, where we had dinner with the sunset and the shore.
It’s times like these that I am so thankful that I get to take photos for a living, meet beautifully unique people every week and have the opportunity to share one of the most memorable days of their lives with them. I’ll take all the grey and rainy days in the world for that.
Tomorrow, I get to photograph a three-day wedding in beautifully quaint Hurley and I’ve been looking forward to it all week!
