Pre-Wedding Photoshoot: London Bridge – Kath and Kai

Hey guys, so are you ready for a crazy week of blogging? That’s right – it’s Project Get-Everyone’s-Photos-To-Them-Before-Christmas! I will hopefully be putting up quite a few blog posts in the next few weeks, but I’m going to keep each one short and sweet. And I’m going to kick off the week with the lovely Kath and Kai’s pre-wedding shoot in London. These guys are getting married next year and wanted to grab a bit of time with me walking […]

Wedding: Winchester House, London – Gemma & James

These guys have to be the original party animals! Gemma and James totally rocked out their wedding in Winchester House in Richmond. Not just did they have one of the coolest cakes I’ve seen, they also had a photobooth in a London cab and a bouncy castle! Theirs was a really awesome alternative wedding that was just full of fun, laughter and jaegerbombs. I’m going to keep things really short as I’m on a bit of a blogging storm this […]

Wedding: Battersea Arts Centre, London – Emma & Chris

I knew Emma and Chris’ wedding was going to be unusual right from the start, when they told me where they were getting married – it’s not often you get to photograph a wedding in a theatre and an old bowls club! Despite missing taxis and the Prudential bike race doing their best to mess things up, this was a lovely, chilled out wedding. Emma and Chris really cared about their guests, involving them in the celebrations from the start […]

Pre-Wedding Shoot: London (Chelsea, St Pauls, Southbank, Big Ben) – Gigi & Ryan

I seem to have done a lot of pre-weddings in the last few years, but if I’m honest few have been as fun as Gigi and Ryan’s. This couple met at Imperial College and have lived in London for years, but they’re moving back to Hong Kong, where they’re going to get married next year. We actually held their pre-wedding shoot just a few days before they said goodbye to London and moved over to Hong Kong, so it felt […]

Wedding: Penthouse Pavilion Suite at the Dorchester Hotel, Mayfair, London. With pre-wedding at the Ritz Hotel London – Sarah and Eric

Sarah and Eric’s wedding was a real family affair. For some reason that description usually conjures up images of cosy weddings, but this was pretty glamorous. Sarah got ready at the Ritz then went on to the ceremony and reception at the Penthouse Pavilion in the Dorchester. You may remember this venue from another Sarah’s wedding, and that’s no coincidence – the wedding planner (another Alex!) was asking on the Internet for a small, quality venue in London and I […]

Pre-Wedding: St Paul’s Cathedral & Southbank, London – Meng-Hua & Jeremy

Wow that was fun. Just got back from a quick 1/2 day pre-wedding shoot around London with Meng-Hua and Jeremy both over especially from Taiwan. Had a blast wandering around St Paul’s and then across the river to South Bank when it got dark. Anyway I best get to bed but just wanted to put this one up from St Paul’s where we got stuck in the rain! Thanks for having me along guys, really hope you enjoy the rest […]

Wedding/Civil Partnership: Andaz Hotel, London Liverpool Street- Jackie and Lindsay

I met Jackie and Lindsay last year near Paddington Station, and we got on so well I was several hours late for a date night with my wife! That should give you some idea of what a friendly, generous couple these ladies are, and how excited I was to photograph their wedding. I’ve shot at the Andaz a few times now, usually with the hotel’s old wedding planner Carly helping me out. Carly, however, had to move back Australia, and […]

Pre-Wedding Shoot: London, Southbank, British Museum and Big Ben – Michael and Joanne

Michael and Joanne are a lovely, fun couple who came over from Hong Kong for a pre-wedding adventure around London. They’re due to get married next year, but wanted to get some shots of them as a couple in somewhere beautiful and grand and, well, London fits that bill perfectly. They only came over for a couple of days before flying on to Paris, so I felt really honoured that they wanted to spend most of their time with me! […]

Couple Shoot: Southbank, London – Rahel and Chris

So it’s been a really busy start to the year around here. In the first couple of weeks alone I managed to hit the US, Guatemala, Belize and Mexico (more on that later). I thought that I’d be on a serious downer when I got back to the UK, but I’ve hit the ground running with plenty of exciting shoots and even more bookings (2014 is looking seriously busy already!). The first of my shoots involved an afternoon along the […]

Wedding: Emily and James – London

I met Emily and James through Francesca, whose wedding at the Globe you may remember from earlier this year. Well, Emily and James’ wedding was also rainy – although maybe that’s to be expected so close to Christmas! They embraced the winter weather with open arms: the ceremony and reception were all held after sunset, and with the venue decorated with fairy lights, candles and a Christmas tree the result was a really cosy, intimate, golden atmosphere that just warmed […]
