I am always enamoured with nights like this one.
An evening at home with my husband, in our little London flat, sat outside under the heater on the terrace, listening to our neighbour’s winter concert, with a bottle of Oyster Bay. Feeling alive and truly grateful for life and love, forever surprised at how sweet London can be.
It’s been a phenomenal start to the year. I am already overwhelmed by what’s in store, but overwhelmed in the best way possible.
Tomorrow at 5am, I leave for Portugal to photograph these two love birds who are getting married on Saturday. Aren’t they just gorgeous? They’re so very much in love and their wedding day is going to be of internationality, with friends from all over the world. It’s also 27 degrees which should mean a welcome return of my freckles. I really can’t wait.
When I first met Jamie & Laura for coffee and a chat in London, I was a little bit enthralled with them both. Introspective and thoughtful, I knew that their wedding was going to be a quietly elegant affair and I could tell from their exchanges that it was definitely going to be a beautiful one.
It is always special photographing a wedding day, but sometimes a little bit even more special when the bride is a wedding blogger who also happens to be exceptionally lovely and is marrying her husband under a bright blue sky. Nick & Georgia flew me to France to photograph their wedding weekend in Provence at Chateau Grimaldi and for this, I am eternally grateful.
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.
An achingly cool London wedding full of fun and laughter at the marvellous MC Motors in East London
Love the shot A LOT!, but ‘patio heater’, *wags finger* ;)
Love this photo, so warm and gorgeous! I’m thankful too for having met you last year, you’re such an amazing photographer and an inspiration to me! Keep up the fabulous work. x
Beautiful sentiment. We never do that enough. Take stock. Deep breath. Live! x
A wonderful picture! Looks like it was a brilliant night. Best wishes for 2011.
I wish I had a flat to have parties like that! Not quite the same scenario when you are staring out at your downstairs neighbours garden with rubbish and broken trampolines in it ;) You deserve to be here – you are one talented lady and I love your work. Can’t wait to see what you do this year. Mega x
oh I wish I was there.. looks like a beautiful way to spend an evening!
happy new year Chloe!
What a great evening!
