A fact. Magali & Jeff are made of awesome. More to come soon once I manage to conquer the editing of this wedding without constantly having to tackle other urgent and distracting issues.
Georgina & Mark | Engagement
Mark proposed to Georgina over a picnic in Marble Hill Park, and really liked the idea of going back there for their engagement shoot. The weather wasn’t exactly picnic-friendly, and we nearly rescheduled as the sky was looking so ominously dark. Fortunately we decided to try our luck with the weather anyways, and what do you know, the rain stayed well away for once. It was one of the first days where you could definitely feel the autumn being on its way. Something about the quality of light, and the way things smell, just shifts a little bit and suddenly you get that feeling that it’s not summer any more. Never the less, the strawberries were tasty, the grass was still green(ish), and we had a lot of fun!
Claire & Ben | Wedding
Another wedding at The Garden Museum and another bride called Claire, what were the chances! :D Claire & Ben got married at Chelsea Town Hall early in the morning, and since their reception wasn’t until the evening, they hired us just for the party bit. It was kind of weird not being present at the ceremony, but it didn’t really take away from the joyous atmosphere of the wedding day. The last time we worked at The Garden Museum, was when we shot Claire & Hywel’s wedding at the start of the summer. Things looked somehow a little bit different now, more autumnal perhaps – and certainly the light was different, but the venue still had that magical quality I remembered from the first time around. It really is a gorgeous place for a wedding reception.
Thank you so much Claire & Ben for letting us be a part of your day, we had a blast capturing it! x
Carolyn & Marc – Reception | Wedding
The reception of Carolyn & Marc’s wedding took place at the Lamb Tavern in Leadenhall Market in the City of London. The Market itself is absolutely beautiful, and I completely fell in love with the lovely pub with all its gorgeous details and wonderful atmosphere (not to mention the amazing food!). I will definitely be going back – hopefully to shoot lots more weddings. :D
I don’t usually plan the pictures I want to take at a wedding in advance, since I want to let my mind, and eyes, to be free to react to what ever is happening around me. But prior to this wedding, knowing where the reception would be taking place, the one picture I knew I really wanted to get was the bride and groom with the beautiful market as their backdrop. I managed to drag Carolyn & Marc away from the festivities just before our time came to an end, and finished the day with the picture I’d had in my head, the last one in this entry. It literally was the last frame I shot and I couldn’t be more pleased with it.
I had so much fun at this wedding and I want to thank Marc and Carolyn for putting their faith in me and trusting me to ‘do my thing’ on the day. I’m still gutted I couldn’t stay for the whole night and thus missed Marc performing with his band – until 4am I hear! What a great party, you guys, quite literally, rock.
Carolyn & Marc – Portraits | Wedding
The best thing about having a photographer as a client, was the amount of time that was scheduled into the wedding day for photography with just the bride and groom. It was such a luxury to be able to spend some time alone with Carolyn and Marc, trying out a few different locations for some cool portraits. At most weddings I’m lucky if I get the bride and groom alone for 15 minutes! I do think the shots we did get prove what a difference it does make to add in some extra time for portraits into your schedule on the day.
Leaving the Townhall, our first stop was Carolyn & Marc’s hotel, The Rookery, tucked away in an alley behind Smithfields Market, which really was a real gem. If you are looking for a sumptuous weekend break in London, or indeed an atmospheric place to spend your wedding night, be sure to check this beautiful little hotel out! We found lots of interesting places within the hotel and it’s patio area to shoot in. On our way to the reception at Leadenhall Market, we stopped for some more shots with the City as a backdrop – I really love the way these turned out. Oh yes, and the shoes. While I’m usually all about the bride’s shoes, on this occasion I couldn’t very well ignore Marc’s cool footwear! :D
