There was a very narrow window of opportunity for us to make Sarah & Will’s engagement session happen, since Will was only going to be in London for a few days, and it would be the last time he came over before Sarah moves to the US in the Autumn to live with him. And of course on that one day that we could make work, it rained and rained aaall day long. But it turned out not to be such a bad thing. At one stage, when the rain got torrential, we retreated into Sarah’s flat and had some fun jumping on the bed. I’ve always wanted to shoot inside someone’s home so it was actually a lot of fun!
I think the fact that Sarah, who’s a designer for Cath Kidston, always tends to draw girls with umbrellas was an omen. Or as it turned out, a sign of fun times with umbrellas to come!
P.S. how cute is the picture of Sarah & Will together when they were little and used to be family friends? Just, awww…

Thx Marianne for taking such lovely pictures of my dear friend Sarah and her fiance. As you said, they are such an adorable couple – a match made in Heaven! This is the first time I’ve seen Will (yes! Sarah broke her engagement news to me through your page!) – from your pics. And your photos have already made me like him instantly. Haha. Your style of photography completely captures Sarah’s cute, romantic, creative, dreamy, passionate personality. Well done!
