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.


This beautiful house was quite the venue, in an enviable location just outside of Edinburgh, but they sadly they no longer host weddings. In early July, it’s still so bright at 10pm it’s literally a photographer’s dream. At the same time this year, I’ll be in Stockholm photographing a wedding where the light stays up late and I absolutely cannot wait!

This week is proving to be a relaxing one.  I’ve edited an engagement, finished a mountain of admin and I also have a wedding to photograph before the week is out. I’m close to closing my bookings for 2012 now too, trying to keep things manageable so as to give them all our best and leaving a little time for holidays with husbands and weekends spent with friends. 2012 is already looking so good!

  • 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…

  • A WEDDING IN ZURICH

    I am very lucky to be able to photograph weddings such as these. Sweet, intimate and so full of love and smiles. It also happened to be in Zürich, a city I had not visited until July. I think I’m in love with Switzerland.

    Getting ready together, they were both the picture of calm…

    …with a little edge of excitement.

    Swiss civil ceremonies last just fifteen minutes, even when in French and English, which leaves plenty of time for tea and sightseeing on vintage trams…

    There is something so special about grandparents. This lady reminded me of my own grandma and squeezed my hand and beamed when she caught my eye. She also had the cutest granddaughter who was not in the least bit fatigued by the blazing sunshine.

    Thanh has a passion for all things culinary and gave everyone tiny kitchen utensils as gifts.

    Isn’t she just the sweetest little thing?

    After our trip to Switzerland, we’ve decided that one day we’ll move to Zürich and have lunch by the lake on Sundays with our new friends Thanh & Yvan. It’s a truly beautiful place; fresh and clean and content.

    I still have a lot of editing to catch up on and a few more weddings and portraits to do before the year is out. I’m quite sad to see the autumn leaves on the ground but glad to have time to catch up on things through winter. It’s been a year of big changes, exciting challenges and huge rewards, but there’s a little more on all of that later.

  • A HAMPSHIRE WEDDING

    Carey and James are a lovely, down-to-earth couple who got married in the first week in June. They held their reception at the very stylish Anchor Inn in the very quaint Hampshire, out in the English countryside. I have never been to such a fantastic pub in all of my life and I’m not proud to admit that I’ve visited a fair few. We had such beautiful weather that everyone was in the highest of spirits, which really made for quite the perfect day.

  • AN ODE TO 2012

    Sometimes when life gets busy, it’s easy to forget, the people and the places, the dusks and the sunsets. Those days through the year when you felt your heart beat, huge smiles from new people you were quite lucky to meet. Be still for a moment, just sit and recall, reflect on the absolute beauty of it all. Life is quite frantic and at times it’s quite sad, but these are the memories that make our souls glad.

    This year I’ve been invited on a number of days, with camera in hand and finger ablaze, to witness small fragments of love and sheer bliss, a sum of thirty-eight weddings and they looked a lot like this…
