The girls behind the top UK Wedding Blogs

Monday, February 21st, 2011

A while back, I was totally blown away when Kat Williams ~ The Rock n Roll Bride asked if I would be interested in shooting a project that she had in mind. She wanted to bring together the girls that write some of the best UK wedding blogs to model for the gorgeous Luella’s Boudoir bridal boutique. I was so so honoured and immediately thought this was going to be the perfect opportunity to use my prize from the Unveiled Wedding Photographer of the Year. Hasselblad and the Pro Centre in London invited me to put together my ‘Dream Kit’ which involved a great afternoon being shown around their hire stock. It was like being given the keys to the Candy Store and I cannot recommend enough entering the competition this year if you are a wedding photographer. The shoot was insane but incredible fun. Amy helped me to set up and shot a brilliant behind the scenes story while the amazing hair and make-up teams worked their magic. Stylist, Katie and Alison from Pollen Nation dressed the set and the girls beautifully while Richard from FX Films even managed to film everything.

On Monday, this shoot will be hitting 6 of the top UK wedding blogs but here is a little look at the slightly crazy day we had on our first shoot sponsored by Hasselblad as part of my Wedding Photographer of the Year Award.

Vintage London Wedding / Sophie & Barney

Tuesday, October 26th, 2010

I almost don’t want to write anything, I love these images so so much. Sophie and Barney found me through the gorgeous Rock n Roll Bride site and this was certainly a London Rock n Roll Wedding. After checking out Sophie’s website and then meeting them both, I pitched the idea to incorporate some quirky animal masks that I have had waiting for just the right wedding. Amy went to their very cool flat to cover the boys while I had a wicked time with Sophie and her six bridesmaids who all wore vintage pieces altered by Sophie. The vintage 1930s silk wedding dress originated from the Victoria and Albert museum via My Sugarland and was altered by the Queen’s seamstress. Though we were running a little late, the very kind registrar at Islington Town Hall let me take a quick shot of Sophie walking up those steps on her own to show off the amazing train. After the ceremony, we walked through the vintage and antique shops of Camden Passage down to their venue which was an old metal works in a cobbled street. Such a privilege to be involved in a wedding day like this and I hope the images do justice to it. Before you ask, the “Till Death Do Us Part” cake is from Choccywoccydoodah.

Wedding Photographer / Polhawn Fort Cornwall

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010

Amanda and Walé held their wedding at the amazing Polhawn Fort which overlooks a dramatic bay in Cornwall. Far from a traditional bride, Amanda wore a beautiful blue Roland Mouret dress with pewter Jimmy Choo wedges. The bouquet was a structural arrangement of Calla lilies and she clipped some pretty little butterflies in her hair which had been done by Daniel Lustig (from Brighton). Amanda has the stunning Stephen Webster ‘crystal haze’ rings’ and Wale’s ring is from Sarah Sheridan The atmosphere was relaxed but the ceremony was quite emotional. The weather had been very changeable but just as they said “I Do” I spotted a rainbow going into the sea. The evening entertainment was Brighton’s Stick It On which meant that all the guests got to be DJs and play 3 tracks. It certainly got the party going from super cool tracks to the mother of the bride playing Status Quo as it had come free in the Daily Mail!

Rock N Roll Bride without a Bride!!!

Saturday, March 27th, 2010

We are literally popping open the bubbly this afternoon in the office. We have been LOVING the uber fabulous Rock n Roll Bride who was named as the most influential person in the wedding industry. So after recently getting in touch, we have started an association with her very inspirational blog and today Matt & Leon’s dramatic Brighton Civil Partnership is featured on there. It looks fantastic and has fulfilled my ambition for this year, which was to get on there. The photographers and images that appear on her site are among the best in the world and now little old Devlin Photos has got its foot in the door. Feel like I have won an Oscar! Have a look and leave your comments at www.rocknrollbride.com
