Creative wedding, couple & family reportage photography covering Cornwall, London, UK and overseas
I was pretty chuffed when I was asked whether my pictures from Emily and John’s awesome wedding could be used in a double feature between two rocking UK wedding blogs, Rock’n Roll Bride and Rock My Wedding. As a photographer, I tend to tell stories via the pictures I post. The thing I really like about being featured in wedding blogs is that I then often get to read the other side of the story, as told by the bride herself. You can check the features out here: Part I & Part II.
After my little break, I couldn’t have wished for a nicer wedding than Emily and John’s to get me back into the swing of things. Winter weddings are always a bit of challenge when it comes to available light and the weather in general, and this one certainly wasn’t an exception. The ceremony of Emily & John’s wedding took place at Woodstock Town Hall in Oxfordshire, at 3pm. The sun set at 3.35pm. And let me tell you, when the sun sets outside of London, it actually gets dark. Like really dark. :D Despite the darkness, and the constant rain, I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed recording the warm atmosphere of this wedding. The reception, at The Great Barn in Aynho, had such a joyous and christmassy feel to it that I felt compelled to put my own Christmas decorations up the very next day!
Thank you so much Emily & John for letting us share your gorgeous and fun wedding day with you!
A little teaser from Emily & John’s wedding in Oxfordshire last Saturday. A girl can’t help but drool over Emily’s Louboutins…
I am back from Cornwall, but my mind hasn’t quite caught up with the hectic pace of the city yet. Next Saturday’s wedding is bound to snap me out of my stupor and give a kick start to blogging properly again. Also, more pictures (and maybe even video!) from Cornwall to come, once I’ve gotten around to taking a closer look at what I captured while down there.
If there was an award for the craziest engagement shoot weather ever, Simona & Dan’s shoot would win hands down. Oh. My. God. Gale force winds and horizontal rain made this one of my most challenging shoots to date. I have to say that Simona and Dan were absolute troopers, and despite the slightly ‘windswept’ look, Simona managed to look absolutely stunning throughout! They are one of my (many!) couples getting married at the Andaz next year, and as if that wasn’t exciting enough a prospect, their evening party will take place at the Gherkin. I can’t wait!
