Thirtieth Collection

The picture was taken in front of the bride's house. At the moment she walked to the car, I saw her reflection in the car and knew that it would be a nice picture. At this moment she was preparing to get in the car, while the groom was waiting for her to get in.

I am just a big kid and I love to laugh. My kids say I’m all about having fun. This helps to make engagement shoots lighthearted. We ran through this avacodo orchard with sparklers just being silly and I captured this adorable moment.

Lucy & Peter organised the most amazing D.I.Y. festival wedding, including a wide variety of lawn games, and I captured this photograph of the bride & groom doing the limbo!

Beside the purple ridges of the dense Aravalli hills stretching in every direction, and the shimmering lake Pichola, Udaipur has an unmatched romance in Rajasthan and in all of India too. Magnificent palaces, temples, mansions, tranquil boat rides, bustle of the ancient bazaars and timeless streets add beauty to this city’s natural splendour. Tagged as one of the most romantic spot on the continent, one can not argue much about it. Undoubtedly, there is so much love in the air that makes Udaipur as one of the most sought after wedding destinations. When we went out to shoot Sushant & Vaishnavi, we had so much time and space that helped us to frame timeless portraits of the couple in exquisite locations. The dress, mood, lighting - everything just fell in place. Like this shot we framed at the Ahar Museum. How do you like it?

This shot taken early summer in Pink Jaipur, India in side city palace where this couple were suppose to celebrate their wedding reception.

Just love the "feel" of this photo, a beautiful intimate moment between Aleksandra and John. The only way to emulate this feel in a photo is to be physically close and be right there with them - but couples only allow you that privilege when you've gained their trust so they feel they can be themselves in your presence - it's almost like you disappear....its that relationship that we work most hard to build...but when it allows you to capture moments like this it's worth it!

It may look a little funny. Thanks to the groom and the bride who like and cooperate with this show. The picture I want is a fun idea of the bride. She is playful, that is her personality I want to present.
I think shoes that float in the air. It will make people smile to see more or less.

Christine and Markus
Such a lovely couple. I got to accompany them as a photographer for their wedding in August 2017, which is where this photo was taken. They got married in an old abbey with a non-confessional wedding ceremony, held by an Australian orator. The maid of honour translated it into German for the guests. They had everything arranged with so much love for detail, and Tine & Markus were such affectionate people. As hosts as well as with each other. What would our photos be without the souls of those we portray in them?
We were almost finished with the wedding shots when I discovered the vault. It started off as an experiment, but turned out to be one of my absolute favourite pictures. I admit that regarding the flashlight I do trust my guts rather than rely on skill. And in this particular case, it seems that it was just perfect to do so.
Thank you wedisson.com for this award. I am honoured and incredibly proud.

Jane and Jon's Wedding.. and what a rollercoaster of a journey we had together. As Jane's dad was called in I had a funny feeling there was going to be a generous display of emotion - luckily for me the makeup artist had placed a huge mirror in just the right place to get both reactions - priceless. It's these moments I shoot for, the little glimpses of legitimate beautiful emotion through photojournalism.

Ruth and Chris married at Brighton Pavilion before heading to Lancing Beach, where this image was taken. This was an unposed moment when were all heading back up to their reception venue (Perch on Lancing).
This image is extra beautiful to me because the water is unedited.

Every girl likes their mothers high heels. Especially Jimmy Choo shoe's. This little prinses just could't stop playing with the shoes until mummy put them on.

I try to give every client I capture a sparkler night photo, which is a long exposure shot with myself running like a headless chicken around the couple with a 70cm sparkler. So much fun. And normally the shot is a one exposure shot, but with this particular photo I wanted to photograph the stars in Dullstroom, South Africa, and I knew to capture the stars and to capture the sparkler I needed two exposures because the technique to achieve the individual shots is different. So the final image is a composite of two exposures, and the car in the photo is such a special car to the couple so when I added the car element it made the photo very special!

This was one of the most unique weddings I have ever shot. Their ceremony was held on the beach, with a traditional Korean ceremony (as the bride was from Korea). The groom, from Poland, also wanted his heritage incorporated, so the did a traditional Polish reception. Between the two events, The bride and groom changed into traditional wedding attire for formal portraits. We took some basic shots by the water and light house. Then we went over to the area where fishing boats come in. This hall is actually connecting a boat dock, to the area the fish are cut. It was less than ideal, and had quite a smell. Not really an area photographers would bring their bride and groom, but I knew the moment I seen this spot, I had to utilize it- with this end result in mind.

This little bridesmaid was just so happy she could finally wear her 'princess dress', the day of her uncle's wedding. She was dancing like a princess during the ceremonie, and when she finished her performance she bent as only a true princess can bow.

The bride and groom arriving in a convertible at the wedding venue. I started to semi-run behind the car because I felt something special could happen. That's when the mother of the bride held out her hand. Loving it!

This is a photo that I really wanted to do because I always try to give another point of view to all the moments of a wedding. I like weddings because you always have many possibilities to do new things, to see things from different planes. Each wedding is different and this is one of my favorite photos, I think it has a lot of strength and it seems that the viewer gets into the dress.

In a classic "decisive moment", this photograph starkly captures two stages of life and love...the young couple, safe and warm, joyous on their wedding day, contrasted with the elderly couple caught outside braving the elements on, what is to them, a very gray day. Huddled under an umbrella, they catch a glimpse of who they were and together we think about the journey they have experienced and the journey the young couple is about to begin.

Hong Kong can be so impressive just like this lovely couple. They knew about this wonderful spot in Sai Kung. It was far to travel but definitely worth the effort of going there. This couple got married a couple of weeks later and I was very blessed to capture their wedding day as well.

What lovely friends this bride has! 3 best friends helped the bride prepare for her big day. The girls paid attention to every detail and took such good care of her. A lot of laughs and a single tear made this a moment to cherish forever!

Tania & Derek were just bursting with excitement after their ceremony!! This is one of the very few times I will let people spit bubbles all over my head! Such an amazing day we had celebrating with these two.

What I love about wedding photography is having to be creative no matter what. This wedding took place in downtown Raleigh, NC and we had planned on going outside to capture some amazing skyline photos. However, the weather had a different idea and a literal monsoon started as soon as we started to walk outside. Wanting to get something more artistic and creative, I used the open balcony and glass "divider" along with the light fixture to add drama into their portrait.

While walking through the blue city of India, jodhpur. Aditi and Rahul wanted to had their first dance look as huge as it could be. so taking them up the corner we brought the whole city witness their love

A romantic and peaceful moment after the ceremony at Khol Mansion in Burlingame, California. The weather was ideal, the venue majestic, and the details were perfect.

A merry morning of the bride of Dasha - to match the whole wedding! On this day there was a lot of fun, rock'n'roll and drive. The wedding day of Harry and Dasha was unforgettable.

In the picture, the beautiful, majestic bride Daria. She lovingly waits for her fiance in the heart. This exciting day will be for the young beginning of a new family life.

Franz and Eleanor are an elegant couple from Odessa. Their wedding day was carefully organized and everything was thought through to the last detail. I remember very well that the newlyweds were very happy and carefree. Nothing prevented them from enjoying the best day of their lives!

It was not just great, it was a hurricane! The wedding of Harry and Dasha resembled an excellent youth party. Here, absolutely everything, including parents, was sensations of the same age, mood and charge of unrestrained energy. Rock and roll is alive, friends!

Because it was raining on the wedding day of this couple, they had chosen for an old abandoned factory.
And we were so grateful for this rainy day: what a amazing place!
Not an easy job due to the lack of light. With a little help of the magmod and controlling the light we were able to shoot really fantastic pictures.
And this picture was by far our favorite!

With larger bridal parties, I enjoy getting creative and coming up with new ways to shoot the group shot, something other than everyone all stood in a line! Here is the stunning Fiona with her beautiful bridesmaids at Bodelwyddan Castle in North Wales, UK.
