This picture is a favourite of mine. The light is gorgeous and I love the contrast between the father of the bride in black and the stunning lacy white dress. But not only that, it shows beautifully, how I as a documentary wedding photographer, like to capture details. Details are part of the story of…
Laura and Stephen are both Irish musicians. Laura plays the violin and Stephen plays the Bodhran (Irish drum). They met on Laura’s 21st birthday playing an Irish music session at the Herschel Arms pub. So it is no surprise that Irish music (and pubs) played a big part in Laura and Stephen’s wedding. Laura and…
Half way there! This is Month 6 of my 365 project - where I take and share a picture every day of the year. This was another busy (and emotional month) for us. Cosmo started school and turned five, which we celebrated with an emergency services birthday party. My baby starting school was an emotional…
I love photographing children at weddings. They are usually the ones that totally ignore my camera and carry on with whatever fun thing they are up to. It’s any documentary wedding photographer’s dream. I took this photograph during Emma + Greg’s wedding at the gorgeous Asia House. It was a very small wedding ceremony with…
This was my second Ridge Farm wedding this summer. In June, I photographed Katie and Matt’s Humanist wedding at this wonderful venue. A few weeks later, I was lucky enough to return to this lovely spot in Surrey for Lyndsey and Sam’s amazing wedding. Ridge Farm has it all - beautiful rustic buildings, stunning gardens,…

As a documentary wedding photographer, I always look for moments of connection. Weddings are emotional days filled with love, laughter and tears. Couples are usually surrounded by the people they love most in the world. There are lots of opportunities to capture some wonderful interactions - no posing required. It’s about observation and anticipation and…
Here we are in Month 5 of my 365 project - a personal project where I take and share a photograph every day. This month has been an easy one. The weather has been amazing and we’ve had a busy summer with lots of visitors and trips away. We’ve been to Cornwall to celebrate grandpa’s…
Ana and Jon found me through a local Mums group on Facebook. They live just around the corner from me in Bounds Green and have two children, Austin and Elin, who are of similar age to my little one. Ana is originally from Spain. Jon and Ana met 18 years ago when Ana first came…
It is such a pleasure to share Em and Neil’s beautiful Ham House wedding with you. Em and Neil got married in their (very) local church in Ealing - they literally live opposite. Em got ready at home. This was great for me as I could go back and forth from the flat to the…
