Vintage, Rock n Roll London Wedding / Leslie & Ben

Wednesday, December 1st, 2010

I am so in love with shooting London weddings and it was such a joy to be involved in Leslie and Ben’s cool vintage/rock n roll inspired day. I had a lot of fun at Leslie’s hotel in the morning shooting the getting ready – gorgeous Joanne Fleming frock and Laboutins, heaven! There was a bit of a panic on so I got to fulfill my inner bridesmaid (never been one never gonna be at this rate) In between shots I got to help the bride get beautiful. New girl Jayne did her magic with the groom and we all met again at Marylebone Old Town Hall for the very lovely ceremony. We shot their portraits in the streets around there, you can’t beat a London Mews and we even came across a great vintage Jaguar to ‘borrow’ for some shots. The reception was in an old rowing club by the river, very vintage but the atmosphere was pure Rock n Roll. After the delicious meal, everyone totally rocked out to the awesome band and the bride changed into some converse. I have heard that it all ended in a big moshpit.

London Engagement Photography / Leslie & Benedict

Sunday, September 19th, 2010

This London couple are serious foodies and into their books so we decided to do their engagement photography on the South Bank in some of their favourite places. We started at Borough Market, which is amazing, can’t believe I have never been. It is food heaven and you can pretty much fill up by wandering round getting samples of everything from Thai curry to obscure cheeses. After a quick champagne cider, we stopped off at Tate Modern before hitting the book market on the South Bank. The light was gorgeous and before we finished, I persuaded Leslie to pop on some Minnie Mouse ears, well she is American! The wedding is in London in November and sounds as if it will be amazing and quite emotional. I’ve had a sneaky peek at the dress design by Brighton designer Joanne Fleming and it is gorgeous.

Sussex Wedding Photographer / Hazel & James at Ashdown Park Hotel

Wednesday, May 5th, 2010

There might have been quite a few rain showers but there was still a great atmosphere at Hazel and James’s wedding in the beautiful Ashdown Park Hotel in Sussex and it had little impact on the wedding photography. The dress from Browns Bridal collection was incredibly elegant as was Hazel’s specially commissioned pearl jewellery. Apart from the veil, she may well have been preparing for the Oscars as the look was 1930s screen siren meets modern laid back beauty. Hazel choose a pair of gorgeous Christian Laboutin sky high heels for the daytime and had a killer sparkly pair for the evening. Gemma, the bridesmaid was extremely lucky as she got to wear a stunning couture gown from the amazing Brighton designer Joanne Flemming

As the rain simply would not leave us alone, we used the grand covered entrance to the hotel for all the group shots and had a well timed dry spell for portraits of the bride and groom. For some unknown reason, their meal was brought forward by an hour so we had to work quickly but managed to squeeze in some elegant shots in a window seat. Their gorgeous cake was by the very talented Zoe Clark and there was a Beatles theme to the table decor. This is one of my favourite vintage inspired weddings to date.
