A FRENCH CASTLE WEDDING

Kate & Rob are the kind of people you would describe as salt of the earth. Embracing and endearing, Emma-Jane and I felt like we’d been friends of theirs forever and with Rob’s sharp suit and Kate’s red hair, they were a treat to photograph. Two-hundred guests travelled from England & Dubai to the French town of Pierrefonds to celebrate their wedding in a huge medieval castle. It was certainly a weekend to remember.

 

Venue: Chateau de Pierrefonds

Thank you as always to my talented Emma-Jane for sharing this wedding with me. You, me, France and a wedding is always a very good time.

For those of you who haven’t been reading our blog for long, Emma-Jane photographed our wedding in France three years ago and I fell a little bit in love with her. Luckily for me, she agreed to join me photographing weddings all over the place a little while after I started up. We work together on larger weddings like this one but more often than not, photograph the more intimate weddings independently. We also have some other things we do together, but we’ll share a little more about that later.

This week we are mostly reading up and learning to shoot film again… We have a very exciting addition to our camera family that goes by the name of Contax.

  • BALI BOUND

    A busy summer it has been, with weddings and shoots aplenty. Happy memories I have captured, to the sum of eight and twenty. Autumn is here and the sun is now shy, the leaves slowly litter the ground, so I’m packing my case and off we will fly, for we are Bali bound…

    I am so excited to be photographing a gorgeous outdoor wedding in Bali next weekend! If you need me, I’ll be back on October 16th and if you’d like to see what I’m up to the interim, you can have a behind-the-scenes look over on Instagram.

    Thank you as ever to UK Film Lab for the beautiful scan, from an amazing wedding at the Tiara Miramar hotel on the beautiful Cote d’Azur, earlier this month.  There’s plenty more where this has come from, just as soon as I get chance to catch up on the blog. This year has been even busier than I expected but I’m really not complaining when it’s all looked like this!

  • 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.

  • A WEDDING IN PROVENCE

    One day in Covent Garden, I met a couple quite head over heels. We spoke about their wedding, shook hands and agreed a deal. I would travel out to France for them and photograph their wedding, and they would smile and laugh all day, show me their happy ending. To Provence I went, excited, with those lovely Lavender & Rose girls, so I hope you can see what a perfect day it was, as their beautiful story unfurls.

  • A CHATEAU GRIMALDI WEDDING

    At this beautiful late-summer wedding in Provence, the sun shone bright and bold and friends by the dozen flew all the way to France, to witness C & D’s vows be told. We clapped and we cheered and the mothers smiled wide, and everyone sipped champagne before supper outside…

  • 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…
