I love a challenge so when Lara suggested we meet at the water tower on the downs in Bristol I agreed, unaware that The Downs is essentially open playing fields. So the challenge – Make an open field on a cloudy day look interesting.
We were recommended to Tara and Rob for their wedding at Bartley Lodge Hotel by Kate & Ed whose wedding we had shot in September last year. It’s always fantastic to be recommended as it means we’re making people happy and that’s what it’s all about.
It was midday and the sun beat down relentlessly on the Cutty Sark. It stood motionless on the glass sea. With the bow looking out towards London’s Docklands, even in a cloudless sky the midday sun was behind the boat – meaning we could get some gorgeous shots of Emma & Errol.
We met Charlotte and Scott when Charlotte was a bridesmaid for Kelly and Toby’s wedding at Sopley Mill back in August last year. That was one of our favourite weddings and it was amazing to get a call from Charlotte on the Monday.
Ruth and Darren’s Winkworth Farm wedding is all set for August. We made a trip to Lacock into a cosmic dream ride for their engagement shoot.
Ross & Jenna are getting married at the Great Tythe Barn, Tetbury in June. I recently met up with them on a wet and miserable day near Blenheim Palace for their engagement shoot. It was fun even though it ended with us all getting soaked in the rain.
Sometimes in the winter months to keep myself amused and to work with some amazingly talented people I arrange styled shoots. Here are some of the results –
When I started out I decided that one way to be unique would be to shoot in all colour, no black & white. That lasted probably one wedding.
I had some great news yesterday. One of our images from Laura and Arash’s wedding at Kings Weston House will be featured in the Fearless Photographers’ Renaissance yearbook 2015 at WPPI in Las Vegas.
