When Joannie, super bride, waves to the photographer just before entering the church. After years in the business, this is still one of my favourite photos!
We love to get creative with our couples! When this couple wanted to go out in the dark and create something cool we didnt hesitate for one second. Using ambient light from the decorartion on the bridge we had just enough light to set right mood!
A sunset stroll by the canal. Lizzie & James had a very relaxed wedding day vibe, which meant there was plenty of time for couples portraits in the evening, just the most perfect evening
Louise & James had a beautiful gothic wedding ceremony in Scotland, all the details of this wedding was stunning and so unique. We head out to explore the beautiful Scottish landscape close to the Castle they got married in for their portrait session, it was the perfect backdrop.
Joan and Bastien wanted vivid memories, whatever the weather. In Belgium, it can sometimes rain a lot... Rain is not an excuse not to take wedding photos :-) !
This was captured using my new 50mm 1.2, whilst capturing this couples portrait session, I noticed some wonderful flowers with beautiful colours in the venues gardens which I knew would work as great foreground bokeh. I asked the couple to get close and intimate with one another and this wonderful moment was captured!
I had spotted the yellow rapeseed field on the way to venue. I was photographing bridal prep when the flowers arrived and thought what a perfect match...
When love has arived.
What a day it was! Sunny wedding and an amazing couple. Some clients are good clients.
Some clients are amazing clients. And a tiny part of them become friends ...
Meet my new friends
I whisked Kiera & Joey off to one of my favourite secret locations in Staffordshire for their pre-wedding shoot. The light was lovely and soft in the evening and in this shot we got Cannock Chase in the distant background. Kiera and Joeys met in China whilst Kiera was working there and Joey moved to the uk to marry his love - soo romantic!
Getting ready in a castle had Its perks. We put the dress in a beautifull room and when the daughter of the bride went to check it out it we knew this was going to be a beautifull photo.
Wedding cake and children is always a perfect moment for great shots. You'll never know what's going to happen but something funny will always be there, so you just have to be ready for it. Look at this precious moment of the wedding couple with their sons, like little birds being seeded by their parents. The guests watching this moment, wat just waiting for them to open their mouth too, haha!
Simplicity. It is an element I always try to capture. Very often the bride and groom are busy during the day with the guests, and don't have much time for eachother. Frequently the wedding reportage is the first moment of the day where the bride and groom can have a precious moment together. That's why the start of every wedding reportage with me starts with simplicity: just take some time together. Walk away from me, talk to one another, kiss and hug, whatever you feel or need. It brings out the purest moments, and I love capturing these delicate moments. Add a beach and golden hour, and nothing more is needed for a stunning image.
A moments relaxation and reflection in one of Burghley House's most iconic rooms. Lauren & Adam were a dream to work with, they quite happily explored the vastness of Burghley House, a photographer's paradise
Irene & Gianni had the most beautiful Greek wedding ceremony followed by this explosive confetti shot as they left the 12 Apostles Church. The whole day was just amazing !
The flying marshmallow.
These two cuties were playing on the church grounds just after the ceremony. I took this shot of the two of them and when I showed it to them both she said with a big smile “I look like a marshmallow!”
This wedding dress asked for lots of dancing. The materials and the wind are a perfect combination. And look at this location and sky, isn't it amazing?
Letting the Dress Fly is always Fun. The Maid of honor was supporting me with this shot and with the serial images. When I noticed the funny move of the Maid of honor I showed them the pictures and they all wanted a GIF out of it. The next morning I sendet them the GIF and this one definitive made their day.
Joan, a young bride, faces the wind and the clouds. On the island of La Palma in the Canary Islands, the entire south is made up of recent volcanoes and cooled volcanic lava. The salt pans of Fuencaliente face the Atlantic Ocean, and the wind often blows strongly. An ideal location for a post wedding portrait session.
When your couple are both teachers, you just have to do something with all the kids. So why not have them run around the newlyweds and create a fun portrait? I just love to do stuff like this.
This was the moment when Sophie & Jeffrey just arrived at the wedding venue where their family and friends were going to see them for the first time. And the bride's look says it all , she couldn't wait to show what a beautiful bride she was.
