The Elephant in the Room - Covid-19

4/2/2020

Your wedding and Coronavirus, will you be affected?

I sent out an email to all my 2020 clients last week and the response of support has been amazing. However I'm certainly beginning to notice that this isn't just affecting brides and grooms of March to June weddings but even those later in the year. I have even had questions from 2021 couples asking the "just in case" questions...

Mr & Mrs Cleal

3/31/2020

Reminiscing over so many gorgeous weddings that I was honoured to photograph in 2019. Mr & Mrs Cleal's day at The Pear Tree Inn, Smite, Worcester was no exception. When I first met Ellie & Louis, at a little coffee shop in the village I instantly knew we would get on so well. I meet so many couples however these pair had an incredible connection and I knew they absolutely adored one another.

A Sunny September Saturday, as my busiest wedding season yet draws to a close, Sophie & Ollie have finally reached the day they have been waiting for.

Mr & Mrs Chapman

This year has flown by, how am I nearly at the end of my 2019 wedding season. Absolutely crazy!

At the start of the year I promised myself I would start blogging about certain weddings that I felt were unique, had a beautiful story or sung to me in a special way. Now.. problem is, every wedding I become apart of becomes a moment in my career history. Every wedding shapes who I am as a photographer and as a person. I get to share some incredibly beautiful and intimate moments with strangers, who very quickly become friends. I shed tears as Dad see's his daughter for the first time, my heart flutters as this gorgeous couple say their I do's and share their first kiss as husband and wife but also I share in the joy as people congratulate and celebrate the joining of two families.

Their innocent smiles and tiny personalities is something worth cherishing for a lifetime.

A Maternity Glow

4/2/2018

Sophie and Olly are expecting their first child, a baby boy! It was a beautiful evening when we did their maternity session in a field close by to their house. It was a race against time as the sun was setting and we had little light. However, I'm in love with this set of photos... I hope you like them too!

35mm Beauty

Sat one evening at the dining table, snow falling heavily outside as the beast from the east hits. The entirety of the UK is in panic once again and after three dumpings of snow over the past few months I can honestly say I'm no longer a fan of this cold slushy stuff. It was fun and beautiful at first but when you're running your own business it can start to be a pain.

The Bug

11/10/2017

On the first day of Autumn, as the leaves were falling and the orange glow shone from the sunset I organised a stylised fashion shoot. Something I rarely do anymore but absolutely love.

My Dad bought a 1970s beetle back in the summer and had been bugging me since to get some photographs of it! It was beautiful, full of character and story, a time piece, a collectable that had been adored by many.

My idea for a fashion shoot with the Beetle was perfect. I asked Abby Inez, a local singer and friend of mine to do some modelling for me. She had recently decided that she would like to start modelling more, so she was excited to collaborate!

We drove the beetle to Hanbury, where I located the perfect positioning for the sun to shine through the window. Natural light is my absolute fave and the golden hour is a definitely my chosen time for any shoot.
