Next on the blog the gorgeous Wedding of Adam & Gina. It was a pleasure to be their wedding photographer in August. This couple celebrated there wedidng day in Queenland surrounded by family and friends at Branyan Retreat. I totally adore their little family who were all part of the bridal party. Such a special day for two amazing people, congratulations Adam & Gina! x

Emma was married to her husband Paul in August this year at St Peter's Church in Petersham. I felt so honoured to be their wedding photographer, it was such an amazing outdoor wedding. I love this portrait as it shows Emma, at ease and looking straight into the camera. Emma wore a gorgeous Jenny Packham wedding dress complimenting her natural style and beauty perfectly.

When I met Andy and Heather (and their little dog Billie!) earlier this year, I realised straight away how cool they were. Following we took a day out to explore Richmond Park for their engagement photography shoot. It can be viewed on the blog here. A few months passed and before we knew it, wedding day had arrived! What a day it was. Both Andy's family (English/Australian) and Heather's crew (Canadian) we're a delight to be surrounded by whilst I did my job as the wedding photographer for their special day. Anyone who knows me, knows how much I love nature, so the wedding portraits high on love in the fields of Richmond park was a pure blessing. So, I present to you the wedding day of
Andy and Heather at Pembroke Lodge...

This wedding was pretty much the perfect day for the amazing Tom and Lisa. Their guests all loving and all super ready to celebrate their big festival wedding day with them! What a day it was... A ceremony in the sun, drinks and games in the garden then an evening in a tipi at Cowparsley farm - awesome! The Gents Piano Band was a highlight for everyone, what characters those two are! Personally I loved this day and I honestly felt so happy to be there as Tom and Lisa's wedding photographer . So, I present to you the day as I saw it....x

When I met Andrew & Whitney early last year, I knew their wedding day would be a special one. The whole day was fabulous, full of love, laughter and good times for the couple celebrating their special day with family and friends. A highlight for me was when we climbed over the rocks of Higger Tor to create the lovely portraits below. This location was special to Whitney as she grew up learning to climb in this area. The location you may recognise as it was also used for scenes in the movie Pride & Prejudice with Keira Knightly. I also love the hand made touches of this wedding, including all of the gorgeous stationery designed by Andy, the very talented Groom. I also adore the sign attached to the bridal car lovingly drawn by Whitney's Dad, so much heart! What a great day for such a lovely couple, congratulations Andrew & Whitney, it was so much fun being your wedding photographer! x

Andy, Heather (and Billy the dog!) are an awesome little family :) I feel privileged to be their wedding photographer for the big day in Richmond Park later this year. In preparation for the wedding, we took some time out for a very relaxed pre wedding shoot. We met one lovely afternoon in April, the sun shone softly in the afternoon sky.. pure bliss! Billy the dog sat next to the cows in the paddock before joining us for some special photos towards the end of the shoot :) We had so much fun, I’m looking forward to photographing their wedding in July!

Jono + Kirsty's wedding celebration was held at Jono's sports club in Barns where he plays cricket and tennis. Because Jono + Kirsty wanted an outdoor wedding, the sports fields at the club was the perfect location for their wedding day reception. These two love birds met on the District Line tube, so there was a "London Tube" theme throughout all the details worked tirelessly on by Kirsty and her family. Kirsty is a talented Graphic Designer who currently works with Innocent Smoothies, check out the "Kirsty and Jono" labels on the bottles! Love it! Kirsty and Jono were amazing on the day and will continue to be in their future together. Here is there wedding day story...

What a year it's been. I may have said this before but I'll say it again. I do feel SO privileged to do what I do for a job, being a wedding photographer is simply awesome! Photographing people on one of the biggest days of their lives is nothing but a gift every time. 2013 was another great year, meeting many people in love and I wanted to thank all my couples for being so wonderful. Being a part of so many beautiful wedding days has honestly been a pleasure! And now to celebrate, I present to you a collection of photographs, each captured and crafted by myself. What a wonderfully reflective and heart warming experience it was putting this blog post together. Enjoy perusing and best wishes for 2014! x

As part of my yearly round up I always put together a series of what I call "Photo Mood Boards" These boards display a collection of my photographs from weddings throughout the previous year. I find the Photo Mood Boards useful as they show my photography style as well as being great inspiration boards for couples planning their special day.

James & Justine met at art school and after some time decided that each other was "the one". I was super excited after meeting this cool couple as I knew their big day would be great - and it was! Family and friends celebrated after the ceremony at the ever faithful Royal Inn on the Park pub. Evening celebrations included a very talented pianist belting out many favourite tunes ranging from 80's hits to big Broadway ballads. Oh what a couple, oh what a night!

Richard and Leslie were married at the Nash Conservatory at Kew Gardens and then celebrated that evening with their family and friends at The Orangery. Plush, pink, pastel, perfection are the only words to describe their day. With an abundance of pretty details, flowers and of course big love these two tied the knot in style. I adore the gardens at Kew, the photo opportunities are endless and I had an amazing day! To add to the impressiveness of their wedding, Richard and Leslie planned everything themselves from their home in Dubai! Congratulations guys and I wish you all the best for the future!

I met Daniel and Nadia in a coffee shop in central London to hear all about the plans for their wedding day, we had a great time. Nadia is a member of a Steam Punk band called Pocket Watch which I thought was really cool. Daniel is English born and bread whilst Nadia is Australian. They had a gorgeous wedding at The Priory in Hadleigh, surrounded by their special family and friends from all over the world. It was such a fun yet heartfelt affair, set in the beautiful Suffolk countryside.
Here is how I captured it...

Winter didn't dampen the spirit's of Antonio and Nicky's wedding at the St Ermin's Hotel in central London. Big smiles and big love filled the crisp early march air as these two love birds tied the knot. Dressed in Jenny Packham Nicky (a professional ice skater) was a vision in white, Antonio a Spanish groom standing as tall as the trees. This is their wedding day story..

In the past few weeks I've taken some time to reflect. In this time I've felt very privileged to do what I do for a job. I feel so lucky to be around such awesome people on such a special day, creating what I call 'considered compositions of a moment in time' I have compiled some of my favourite compositions of 2012, some of the big shots that rekindle the love and bring a smile to my face. Thank you to all my couples, I would not be here without you! Grab a tea and enjoy x

The cold temperatures of the uk winter didn't stop these two love birds! Ali and Jess we're joined by their friends and family at Kingscote Barn in January this year for their gorgeous barn style wedding. Jess is Australian and met English born and bread Ali not too long after setting up her base in London. Such a gorgeous couple sharing a deep and understanding love, thank you for having me as part of your day x

Words cannot express the love I witnessed on the Day of Andrew and Steph Bell's Wedding. This special couple I met years ago, so photographing their wedding in Fernhurst, West Sussex was truly a blessing. It was pretty hard not to shed a tear as Andrew and Evie (their little girl) stood waiting for Mummy (Steph) to arrive.. in all her festival vintage grace and glory... on a tractor! :) Guests were also impressed with Andrew's homemade brew he called Buttbells. So here it is, their special day as I saw it...x
