Sarah & David wed at The Old Mill

On a beautiful bright September afternoon Sarah & David tied the knot at the picturesque Old Mill in Aldermaston. This was a wedding filled with lots of love and fun, epitomised by the young bridesmaids who must have covered every blade of grass in the gardens.

After an emotional service the lovely newlyweds enjoyed the sunshine and toured the grounds creating some memorable pictures. After some heartfelt speeches the guests were treated to a chocolate fountain (a dry cleaning company must have done well after this wedding) and the DJ got the party going with the first dance of many.

Bonnie & Simon wed at Christ Church & Loseley Park

On Friday 28th September, Bonnie & Simon tied the knot at the deceptively large Christ Church in Guildford with a reception held at the beautiful Loseley Park.

Boy did it rain at this wedding. Not ones to let the weather spoil their day, Bonnie & Simon braved the elements to help create some beautiful images and were rewarded with small windows of clear skies allowing us to make use of Loseley's lovely gardens too. Wet weddings always add some drama with so much going on and although not the dream conditions you immediately think of when planning your wedding they certainly do give the opportunity of capturing some very memorable photographs.

Even the wind got in on the act

A face that tells it's own story

A quick lighting set up in Loseley's drawing room helped create some lovely images


With overcast skies the light in the gardens was perfectly soft


And the summer colours were still on show


The evening gets underway with the speeches

Beverley's Shoes

On Friday I photographed the wedding of Beverley and Ron at The Hotel Du Vin in Henley. Beautiful warm sunshine made this feel like a mid summers day and the wedding itself was filled with great moments, good friends and lots of love.

These are Beverley's shoes shot on her balcony overlooking the Thames. Their full wedding story will follow shortly.

Karen's Shoes

On Saturday I photographed the lovely wedding of Karen and Richard at the Marylebone Registry Office in London. Karen got ready in a superb boutique hotel in Threadneedles Street and the reception was held at the famous Ivy Club in Covent Garden.

Here's a peek at Karen's shoes and their full wedding story will follow shortly.

Layla & Dan wed at Cain Manor

On Saturday 8th September, I photographed the wedding of the lovely Layla and Dan at the Cain Manor in Farnham. As you can hire the venue exclusively for your wedding day and stay overnight in its luxurious rooms it made the wedding a very relaxing, personal and memorable day for everyone.

A truly cosmopolitan group of guests enjoyed the lovely September sunshine and made the most of all the grounds, games and music to make this a very special wedding day.
