Cian & Jennifer | Pre Wed Shoot | The London Eye

I recently had the pleasure of shooting two of my best dressed pre-wed shoot models. Cian and Jennifer will be married down in the New Forest in a few weeks, but we met up at the London Eye for their PWS.

I'm on another Black & White phase, hence just one single colour image in this batch!

Here are the favourites from the day:

Baby Surrey Magazine has a New Photographer!

I am totally thrilled to announce that I have been invited to start working with Baby Surrey Magazine and to contribute to their "Welcome To The World" feature on a regular basis!

The magazine is for Surrey parents with children aged 0-6 years. Its informative content covers Health, Education, Childcare, Fashion, Activities and great competitions.

This amazing opportunity came about at Laura & Chris' wedding last month where I met Jess & Adrian, who own the magazine. We got chatting over a glass of bubbly and it seems that fate played a big part as the timing for everyone worked out really well.

This is one hell of a quality magazine - I am so excited about this amazing opportunity and I am really looking forward to working with the whole team, who are based in Southampton.

Get on over to the website and check them out - and if you know of any Surrey based parents who are due to have a baby, send them over there too. I shall look forward to posting images from our featured families over the coming months, so stay tuned!

Laura & Chris' Wedding

Laura and Chris were recently married at the beautiful Lainston House Hotel in Winchester. They have broken the record for the longest time between booking and shooting, having booked me over 18 months ago!

Despite a little morning stress, the day went smooth as you like, with much fun and laughter throughout. Lovely bridesmaids, lovely friends & family and a lovely couple who were willing to go with the flow and allow me to get creative !

I have to give a huge shout out to Peter Rowland of PR Cars Ltd, a private car hire company. I could not have achieved some of my great creative shots on the day without his expert flash-holding!!

So, without further ado, the shots ...

Congratulations to you both on a wonderful day & my thoughts are with you for Nanna ...
