To start and end a year with beautiful proposals is, for me, epic, delightful, heart warming, magical + a blessing. It bookends a year in the most romantic way but there’s something about coming full circle that I just love + I am super grateful for.
Jay & Sheena at Kew Gardens
Michael & Lauren in London
Wishing everyone a magical 2019 full of happiness, love, smiles + delight! xx
Sassy Saffron
How awesome is this blast of yellow and fabulous smile!!
Creating and capturing portraits and head shots is always such fun (I think) + it was so much fun working with Saffron yesterday capturing new ones for her professional profile and as a Trustee of LKN - Lives Not Knives for their annual trustee report!
Farnham Castle - love the drama of the main room, first dance and a touch of smouldering smoke
dip low
Jon & Izabela's wedding at Farnham Castle was divine and I particularly love these shots from their first dance, swoshing, sweeping drama #love #weddingday
August 16th 2016 Destination Wedding: Florida * Happy 2nd (cotton) Anniversary Gilly & Jon!!
Rajan & Janaki June 16th, 2018
Oh...My....Goodness......I am SO EXCITED to share Janaki's & Rajan's wedding at Woolwich Town Hall. It was beyond beautiful!!! The interior of the town hall is spectacular and the colour and vibrance of the decor totally complimented the ceremony and post wedding pictures!!! <3
a throwback to the coldest.......
I've driven to London and back, had a beautiful photo session + am now chowing down on brunch...Happy Sunday everyone + whilst I can't share the family session right now, I can share some the gorgeous houses we used as our backdrop + the amazing light that was kissing West London at 8am this morning :-)
Stunning Sunday session location.....LOVE LONDON
Just Married x (YES! CONFETTI!!)
On Friday June 15th in the middle of the gorgeous Kent countryside, Tori & James tied the knot! Such a gorgeous day, so many special moments and attention to detail and beautiful colour scheme that I am thrilled to share a sneak peek from their day!!
A stunning colour scheme included soft minty/pastel green of the bridesmaids dresses with hints of white and pink in the bouquets and looked striking amongst the amazing outdoor space created for this special day.
A super relaxed afternoon ceremony in front of the most spectacular tree I think I've seen! Both Tori & James are fitness guru's and LOVE the outdoors so it made sense to tie th knot outside with all their family and friends.
Roof Top drinks and canapés followed the ceremony with an array of delicious cocktails and tons of laughter filling the air.
Congratulations James & Tori xx
2 Years ago today I photographed a gorgeous proposal in Holland Park and TODAY I photographed Rajan & Janaki's civil ceremony - Heart is FULL <3
Glamorous Photographer.....Dust, a Hiviz Jacket..amazing socks...
It's not every day I get to don neon and roll around amongst flowers and plants photographing on a glorious Saturday afternoon waiting for 'golden hour' to appear! Yet Saturday April 19th a few days before Chelsea officially opened I was lucky enough to do just that in order to capture images for Alitex of their display!!
Garden Designer, Jake
It was AMAZING to get access to the show and see the final designs on Main Avenue and all the hard work going on in the pavilion to build and finish the displays ready for judging!! LOVED IT!!
So this week saw me head down to Hove to photograph the amazing Mary + Caroline of Skinirvana and spend a couple days creating their new brand portfolio. I LOVED every second AND working outside got a little bit of sunshine and the start of a tan, so excited and MORE than delighted to share these gorgeous pics....more to follow :-)
Tori & James......
A gorgeous Venue Visit with undulating views and the feel of nature was super fun with these two lovebirds!!!
TONS of laughter and awesome chatter - fitness tips (James was doing 2 mega spartan races over the weekend!!!) So I was gaining lots of amazing insight into nutrition and performance as they are both fitness pro's :-) I cannot wait for June + their wedding day!!!! xx
Kensington Gardens
This morning just before finishing up on a photo session THIS NUTTER ran up my leg - NO EXAGGERATION!
It (gender not confirmed as to a he or she, hence the 'it') had been scuttling around and I had already told it I wasn't a tree, nor was I hiding nuts....undeterred....whosh up my calf muscle it began to climb...and when shhh'd away, bared it's teeth!! Feral Squirrels running Hyde Park..be alert lol x

Despite the snow which seemed to blanket us last night, I finally made it to London for my shoot this morning + caught this pop of colour on my way out. job done :-)

New Year's Eve 2017.......Kew Gardens, London.
Love was in the air!!!
When Jay emailed me explaining he was planning to propose to his girlfriend Sheena, I was so thrilled! I'm always hugely delighted to receive an email or call along these lines and this was extra special because I had met Jay through photographing two of his cousins proposals and engagement parties.
We set about making a plan! This past New Year's Eve had an invigorating briskness to the air (or a chilliness depending upon your sensibility lol) + Sheena had NO CLUE what was about to unfold when she and Jay walked along by the Plant House. I love the shock + delight in these images and afterwards we created some wonderful memories around the grounds...perfect overcast soft light mixed with a few sips of prosecco and fun + delight! xx
The energy in the room at last nights event was exciting and inspired! At Lives Not Knives, Upper Mall, Centrale, Croydon we presented our ideas and advice. The vibe afterwards filled this amazing space with everyone mingling, laughing and chatting. This morning I've been wearing my 'Lives Not Knives' T-shirt with the broadest smile. It's great to have been part of such an amazing event!
