Maidens Barn Essex Wedding

September 13, 2015

The lovely Laura and Andy got married on a beautiful summer’s day in August. The service was held at St Catherine & St Pauls Church in Hoddesdon which was packed to the ceiling.

Then it was a quick dash to catch the wedding car, a beautiful VW bus which I managed to get some pictures of while on route to Maidens Barn in Essex. Maidens barn is a group of buildings on 2 sides with a gated entrance and formal gardens on the other. It’s really private and can hold a lot of people. The sun was shining so I got some great pictures of Laura and Andy in the VW bus then spent some time taking candid shots of all the guests while they soaked up the atmosphere before the reception meal. I finished at dusk with some lovely shots of Laura and Andy in the garden.

Some of my favourite wedding images

April 24, 2015

I just wanted to share some of my favourite wedding images. The first wedding day was at Corpus Christi College Oxford and the lovely bride Dawn just turned away to go through one of the entrances in the courtyard. The second is from Lisa and Mark’s wedding day at St Andrew’s Church Enfield. Lisa was wearing the most beautiful wedding dress and this lend itself to the etherial black and white shot you see below. The third is the mandatory first dance shot. This one from Kate & Steve’s wedding day at Ponsbourne Manor in Hertfordshire. I love this really romantic shot.

Lanwades Hall Wedding Newmarket

November 12, 2013

It was a beautiful day to photograph a wedding at Lanwades Hall, Newmarket when Sadie and James got married.

Lanwades Hall in the heart of East Anglia is a country manor house surrounded by acres of wonderful gardens and park land so the perfect pace to photograph a wedding. Lanwades Hall, part of the Animal Health Trust also has a secret sunken garden and is beautifully landscaped so was the perfect setting for James and Sadie to get married. This has to be one of the most magical places I have photographed a wedding at.

Being a licensed marriage venue the Sadie and James were able to marry in one of the delightfully decorated suite of rooms on the ground floor which had been laid out specially for the occasion.

Corpus Christi, Cambridge Wedding Photography

September 15, 2013

It was a great day for Dawn and Paul at Corpus Christi, Cambridge.

They certainly attracted a lot of attention as this wonderful old college is right in the heart of Cambridge. Their excellent choice of car was Dawn’s Fiat 500 which was decked out with ribbon and huge eyelashes. As a wedding photographer, taking pictures in the middle of the road and trying to dodge the traffic was a challenge but once inside Corpus Christi College the grounds are perfect for weddings and a photographers dream. The reception was held at The Gonville Hotel, just a short walk from Corpus Christi. After drinks the group photographs were taken in the grounds of the hotel. At one stage it looked like the heavens were going to open but as luck had it the rain stayed away just long enough for Dawn and Paul to enjoy the day.

Thai Beach Post Wedding Shoot

April 18, 2013

It’s always fun when the pressure is off following a wedding and the bride and groom want to do an additional shoot. They are relaxed and usually don’t mind getting wet or getting mud on the dress and for me this always produces good shots. If you then add a deserted island, a golden sandy beach, beautifully clear water, a few small props and the sun, then this mix is made in heaven.
