Blue Bell {Jo & David}

Sun soaked beech woodland, with a carpet of bluebells waking up to Spring served as our backdrop. Jo & David spent the afternoon with me, sharing their plans.  I really enjoyed the warmth of their company. They have known each other for a long time and their is an understanding between them which is very...

Colours so bright {Lesley & Toni}

A sunny afternoon, after so many days of grey made everything sing. Colours so bright. The warmth of the sun reaching through the nip in the wind, we set off for a stroll around Brockwell Park. Interested and interesting, Lesley and Toni told me about the old house they are restoring, and we swapped stories...

Parakeets & leaves {Ingrid & Stu}

We walked among the wind swept trees of Richmond Park, surrounded by the green of parakeets and leaves above our heads. I’ve known Ingrid and Stu a little for some years, as they are close friends of a dear friend of mine, but this day was the first I had spent proper time with the...

Elephants & waterfalls {Vivian & Philip}

Vivian and Philip had spent the morning at Sezincote House, meeting with their wedding suppliers, planning their day, and after a brief revitalising tea, they took me back there to show of the beauty of the surroundings. The Sezincote Estate is quite breathtaking, with its Neo-Mughal architecture and expansive manicured gardens. It was designed by...

Green and gold {Annie & Jim}

A very crisp January morning, Annie and Jim came to meet with me on Southampton Common. The golden sunlight streamed through the vegetation highlighting the winter greens, and casting long shadows through the woods. I have a feeling I am going to fall in love with this place. I really enjoyed sharing this time with...

The approach of Autumn {Hannah & Olly}

As one of my very favourite times of the year approaches, Hannah & Olly chose a Richmond Park engagement shoot. A stunning backdrop of turning leaves and autumnal sunshine. We picked our way amongst the golden ferns, and ventured into the woodland, seeds and acorns crunching under our feet. Sheltered by the outstretched arms of...

Acorns to Oaks {Mike & Kate}

I often suggest that we go somewhere meaningful to a couple for their engagement shoot. I feel it must be special for them to be in surroundings they love, and it helps me to learn more about what is important to them. Mike & Kate chose Bala, deep in mid North Wales, where his parents...

Salt air {Dan & Christine}

The beach stretched out in front of us as the tide retreated, leaving seaweed and seashells to make patterns across the sand. This was the breathtaking backdrop for Dan and Chrisine’s Bamburgh beach engagement shoot. Before they knew each other, Dan and Chris both came here, Chris as a child, and Dan when he was...
