James + Justine / Bethnal Green Hall / Royal Inn On The Park / 5th Oct

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!

With my last wedding of 2013 only yesterday I feel pretty lucky and very proud. It's been a big year, photographing many a gorgeous wedding here and there and I want to thank all my lovely couples for being so great throughout the year. I will not lie to you, running a photography business in London has been a massive challenge for one little lass from regional Queensland but hey, I got there and after 5 years of business under my belt I'm feeling as strong and creatively energised as ever! 2014 has many big changes in store I can't wait to reveal! I will also be posting some of my favourite shots from 2013 in a blog post soon, so watch this space! Until then, thank you again to all my couples and supporters
and a massively happy new year!

Chris + Anjana / Tower Bridge / HMS Belfast / London / 24th August 2013

I took this photograph at the very top of London's magnificent Tower Bridge with Chris & Anjana on there wedding day. We had to climb many narrow stairs to get to this small room that overlooked the river. After the ceremony everyone jumped on board the legendary HMS Belfast for a night of drinking, dancing and celebrations on the high seas of the London Thames!

Richard + Leslie / Kew Gardens / London / 20th July 2013

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!

John and Monika live in Twickenham in London which was where their wedding day journey began. Monika's family from Poland were there with her, helping her get ready full of love and excited energy. After the ceremony at St Nicholas Church we all jumped on a big red bus to whiz us over to Hampton Court House where the evening proceedings began.... Food, photos, speeches and dancing followed - everyone had such a fun time! Congratulations John & Monika on being "newlyweds" and many warm wishes for
your future together x

grant + me / self portrait of a couple / london / uk / may 15th 2013

Today I’m celebrating my 3 year anniversary with my man Grant! x Using the timer on my camera I took these fun photos of us - standing as we are, two human beings choosing to spend their lives, together. The wall we are positioned near I pass most days and is just down the road from our flat in London. After taking these photos we walked home and ate apple crumble. Tonight we’re going out to dinner :)
