Saint Mawes Castle

Beach wedding

Saint Mawes Castle, Truro, Cornwall.

I recently agreed to photograph a friends wedding. It's not until next summer but I am already excited. The reason for this is it's setting. It's on a cliff top in Cornwall at St Mawes Castle.  

I'll be posting my own images after the pre-wedding shoot, which will be in February at Saint Mawes.

I'll keep you posted with this blog entry and post some engagement shoot photos in Feb.

Blogged off for ages!

Wedding Workshop

It feels like ages since I've made an entry for the blog, so I thought I'd better catch up....

Recently I attended a photography workshop with The Trained Eye. I think it's really good for photographers to continually improve on technique and understanding of light and to also work with specialists within the industry. I always come away having learnt something new. It's also a great chance to network with other photographers and this one was no exception.
We spent the whole day shooting, which I love. All of it was on location at real wedding venues in Buckinhgamshire. Despite the wonderful locations, the weather did not work in our favour, we had to contend with gale force winds and heavy rain, so we were unable to make the most of the beautiful gardens and stunning locations outdoors. However we did make the most of the gorgeous architecture inside the historic houses and Abbey.
Here are a few of the images from the day, taken at Hedsor House, Bisham Church and Bisham Abbey.

Pregnancy Shoot

Lisa and Brad - Baby Bump

We were joking about during this shoot on Saturday. Brad and Lisa felt like they were on the set of OK or Hello magazine with a title not too unlike "Brad and Lisa at Home as they plan for the arrival of new baby"
Here are the gorgeous images from the shoot.  Lisa and Brad's baby is due end Jan.

Brighton Beach Engagement Shoot

Sharon and Tom's Engagement shoot

Not sure what it is about me but I seem to attract bad weather...rain for the wedding the other week and on Sunday freezing cold, wind and rain for an engagement shoot on the beach!! Ideal conditions.

Despite all this, we managed to get some fab fun shots of Sharon and Tom.
