From the Old Marylebone Town Hall to a boat on the River Thames — the variety of the London wedding. Photographed in my well-suited relaxed documentary style.
Katie spent her wedding morning getting ready in her family home, surrounded by her friends and family, while Gary and the groom’s party prepared for the wedding at The Royal Horseguards Hotel, just next door to the National Liberal Club, the venue for Katie and Gary’s wedding day. Such a beautiful location for their celebrations,…
Charlotte’s family came over from the US and spent the week at this Airbnb in Richmond, holiday accommodation, and the base for all the bridal preparations. Just a short journey away is St. Peter’s Church in Petersham. I loved how it was down this narrow lane, leading to the Capital Ring Walk, with so many…
Such a treasure in the middle of Bishopsgate, St Ethelburga’s Centre for Reconciliation and Peace is a beautiful place for a wedding. Upon entering the gates, you find a little tranquil garden with a gentle water fountain, and when you look up, you see mirrored skyscrapers towering above. This was the perfect place for Luke…
A week before Christmas, there’s a little snow on the ground, and Helena and Tom got married and drank the finest wines available to humanity…. well available to anyone near Fleet Street that is. They had their wedding reception at the Humble Grape wine bar in crypts below St. Bride’s Church.The perfect venue for a cosy winter…
Whilst out walking the other day I ended up taking a moment to reflect upon how I shoot weddings, as my wedding season is about to almost return to normality.I have missed it so very much.I already talk a bit about my reportage approach on the home page, with a few testimonials to give you…
After the touching ceremony, we all boarded a bus for an exuberantly lively and delightfully cheesy singalong. Balancing dancing, singing, and snapping photos while on a moving bus proved to be an enjoyable challenge! Welcoming us near Leadenhall Market was Shonagh Duncan, the bagpiper, who led the grooms and guests to the warm embrace of…
Just a few day after Christmas Simon, Handan, and their family and friends arrived at the Old Marylebone Town Hall. They took their vows in the small but stylish Mayfair room, then we all headed off round the corner to Home House in Portman Square. It was the perfect venue for a cosy but elegant…
A Bowie tribute act and Pub Tropicana-themed London wedding reception! I love a wedding that tells you exactly who the couple are—laid back, fun, colourful, and, most importantly, joyful. Every choice they made was perfect for their wedding, from the Union Chapel ceremony to the stunning Halfpenny dress that Tash is wearing. You can read…
This was such a fun wedding for me as I remembered Anna and Paul (and the other guests) so well from Kati and Dave’s wedding back in 2014. I especially remembered Anna’s dance moves, which I am pleased to say I saw again on the very enthusiastic dance floor! The ceremony was held at the…
What a wonderfully relaxed and intimate wedding Natasha and Ed enjoyed back in February. Their focus on a truly personal celebration is evident in the fact that only family and those directly involved knew about it until recently. Their friends were delightfully surprised at a recent party where the couple announced their marriage. The day began…
Kristina and Steven married in St Peter’s Italian Church in London, what a joy that was to shoot! Not only because of what a vibrant building the church is but also because Italian weddings are far more laid back. Padre Andrea was very welcoming and it’s unusual to be allowed such freedom to move around in…
Well, if I had a fantastic day at Lucy (Goose) and Dave’s London wedding while working, you can imagine what a great time they and their guests had! I was particularly pleased as they fulfilled a personal wedding wish I’ve always had: to hear some Nick Cave at a wedding. In my opinion, his lyrics…
What a delightful wedding this was for me on many levels. Naturally, I had the pleasure of the company of wonderful people (but then, I only work with couples like this). However, there were also some firsts – a first look, my inaugural wedding on a boat, and, if you take a look at Andrew,…
Back in June I had the pleasure of photographing Peter & John’s civil partnership at the Haberdashers’ Hall in Smithfield, London.I do love a London wedding, especially those in areas normally filled with city workers during the week yet are eerily quiet at weekends. It made the walk from the Zetter Townhouse over to the venue something special. A…
