Seventy-Ninth Collection
You can fly in many ways, you can look at an image from different positions, but doing it from the air makes it look different, with much more freedom, and you give more meaning to each image. You realize beauty when you are able to look at it for more than two minutes.
When I noticed the awesome lanterns, and the beautiful symmetry in Gosfield Hall, I just knew that as it got dark it would make for a great image, but as soon as it began raining I knew that was the PERFECT time to get Charlotte & James outside to make it happen and it worked out perfectly :-)
I shot this wonderful moment between mother and daughter at the first look. The wedding took place at Slot Moermond, Renesse, Holland.
When the groom only asks for one picture on his wedding day that includes an imperial walker from Star Wars then you must oblige. We had a lot of fun creating this image at Kathryn & Ryans wedding at Anstey Hall in Cambridgeshire, with them and their bridal party.
Flashback - They are Carol and Ivan and their exciting wedding was celebrated in the beautiful farmhouse of Ca n'Alzina Rubió. I am totally grateful and I have to mention my partner and great friend Dami Sáez for sharing this wedding with me.
It was the end of the day and our second last shot. The sun was setting and we were lucky enough to get this dramatic sky. I love sillouhette against dramatic skies, so was very pleased with this one.
Late summer and the evening was getting dusk proved to be the perfect time to head out with the newly married couple after their wedding at The Old Hall Ely, Cambridgeshire UK
This image was taken in the restaurant during the diner. I decided to make a special shot of the couple. For this shot we placed a flash behind them and hold a mobile phone under the lens for a reflection.
The Incredible Kovil Montagne...
This sacred place is one of the most beautiful temples in Mauritius which is located on the top of a mountain. It was quite difficult to go there with all equipment like AD600 strobe and all. But the willingness of the couple to get something different and out of the world motivated us to go beyond our limit.
The hard work paid.
I shot this at a beautiful venue in Gloucestershire called Dumbleton Hall. There is this amazing tree I wanted to use as a silhouette shot. I used a purple get with 2 flash guns on full power. I placed them about 3 metres away from the tree to capture as much of the tree I could and the couple stood about 1 metre in front. ????
Taken in 1963 or in 2022 ? No one knows. Timeless and original pictures is one of my main concerns. It's all I wish for my couple. Looking at their pictures in 50 years and just say that their photos are amazing and full of kindness and elegance.
This was at the end of the photoshoot with this beautiful couple in the dines of Bergen (the Netherlands) The light was just so perfect! I had to grab this beautiful in between moment.
With my drone I was able to give both of them such a picture. Have to clean up the bridge before asking them to lay down.
Glad both up for the challenge. Good day for them.
One of the last photographs taken outside on the day of Bethany and Jack's amazing wedding at Hengrave Hall before we headed inside to finish the night off in true style. Congratulations guys for having me along for the day. I had spotted this backdrop previously knowing it would be stunning when lit up at night. Such an amazing venue.
A nervous little laugh from the bride during the first dance. I was lucky to have 2 spotlights on the ceiling to have a show light!
I love it when bridal couples sometimes take more difficult photos. Now one wonders what was so difficult about it ?! OK. The access to the pasture was secured with barbed wire. The bride is afraid of cows, and a wedding dress doesn't really get along with what cows leave behind in a pasture. :-) Still, both of them managed it wonderfully.
Amazingly Shannon & Oliver hoped for rain in the evening so we could create a portrait like this! I found a nice composition then back lit them from behind to make the rain stand out :)
VENUE - ELSHAM HALL
At 'Hoog Holten' we go inside because of the rain. But as always, rainy days are creative days so Alwin and Laura get a piece of art.
Taken at Ettingham Park Hotel in the UK, the venue has the most stunning grounds and old church ruins. This huge open arch way was perfect for a portrait shot.
The ring moment.. you take it as it comes and sometimes it happens just a little more interesting than other times .. next time maybe with my drone :P
My beautiful bride Vicky absolutely nailed her wedding boudoir. A moment just us, away from the expected wedding preparation chaos to give her this stunning image. Shot in the stunning bridal suite at the perfectly picturesque, luxury wedding venue that is Branxholm Park.
Low winter light streaming through the windows of the gorgeous Monastery in Manchester . . Throw a bride into that light and the results speak for themselves! I absolutely love playing with pockets of natural light or creating my own using flash to get creative with my images!
I use two speedlights. Blue gel with grid behind the couple for rim light and red gel and sphere pointed into the tree. Great technique for this time of the year when it's get dark early and you want provide your couples with a few creative shots.
This is exactly the start of IDA Storm in New York but I didn’t stop taking pictures of my beautiful couple who were courages enough to dance with the nature’s rage.

This was an great italian wedding for this lovely Dutch couple. Is was the best wedding in the country they both loved. The weather was beautiful and all the guest loved the Italian entourage.
Sophie - always smiling no matter what the weather! After postponing her wedding from 2020 she couldn’t be happier to finally walk down that aisle! Oh and by the time the newly weds emerged from the church, the storm clouds had passed and the sun shone for the rest of the day!
A beautiful city wedding of Jessica & Ronald with perfect light and car! They liked to take som pictures out of the air in the middle of the city!
We was coming to the end of the night and I wanted to see what it would look like from the other side of the pond at Sheene Mill. So as I walked round in the muddy ground, I knew right away I had to photograph this. This was one of the last images of the day and I'm so glad I got wet and covered in mud because it was worth it in the end. It feels so great to fight for every image.
Dale and Dawn! Ireland’s favourite GoggleBox couple. What an amazing day we had. Single speed light placed behind them to illuminate the umbrella under the lights. Taken at Vienna Woods, Cork.
