The Cuney Family Lifestyle Shoot

Friday, June 4th, 2010

I was confronted by another hot day when I arrived at the Cuney household in Cambridge. The brief was to capture little Daniel with his grandparents who had come across from France. With neither speaking English and my French being pretty basic, I thought we may encounter some problems, but children just seem to bring all those around them together. We spent an hour letting Daniel totter around the garden, exploring anything he could get his hands on and generally having fun with all his family.

Adams-Williams Lifestyle Shoot

Tuesday, May 18th, 2010

They say don’t photograph babies and animals but I seem to relish the challenge and get some great results. This morning I was lucky enough to have a great shoot with baby Lowri and proud parents Rachel and John. Lowri was so much fun to photograph, but kept me on my toes a she crawled around the garden and local fields. You can tell a young child or adult were to stand for the best light, but a baby determined to explore everything around her doesn’t care were the perfect light is. As soon as I saw the little bird bath, I knew I had to utilise it even though I was aware we would all get wet.

Emma & Elliot Pre Wedding Shoot

Tuesday, May 11th, 2010

Ravenwood Hall near Bury St Edmunds was the location for my pre wedding shoot this morning. As I have not shot a Ravenwood for a few years, I decided to meet Emma & Elliot there so they could show me their dreams and why they booked this particular venue. My memories of Ravenwood were of an idilic venue set amongst the most beautiful grounds and gardens and I wasn’t disappointed, in fact it was far nicer than I remembered. Emma and Elliot were great fun to photograph and I am looking forward to their big day in July, especially the theme they have planned which will really  give the wedding a funky edge….watch this space on this one!!

Deaton Family Lifestyle Shoot

Friday, April 9th, 2010

I have just returned from a cool lifestyle shoot with the Molly and William and what fun we had. Why people say never photograph children I’ll never know, because  I find it so rewarding when you view your shots and see their happy smiley faces, memories that mum and dad will cherish forever.

Victoria & Kieran Pre Wedding

Friday, March 19th, 2010

Wow, what a great shoot I have just had with Victoria and Kieran at the studio. We ventured out into Fenstanton for their pre wedding session not knowing how they would be in front of the camera and I wasn’t disappointed with the results. Victoria and Kieran are a  great couple to work with, relaxed, fun and most of all in love. We had a great time and got some stunning images. Not only will their wedding be a day to remember and photograph, but I am already getting excited about the idea of their ‘Cherish the Dress’ shoot.

Jo & Andrew Pre Wedding

Friday, March 12th, 2010

Today I visited the lovely village of Alconbury for the pre wedding shoot of Jo and Andrew. I drove there through light rain which luckily lifted when I arrived and we were able to get some lovely shots of the couple. Most of the shoot was spent having fun next to the village green and the brook made a lovely backdrop for the more romantic shots.

Vicky & Paul Pre Wedding Shoot

Friday, February 19th, 2010

After a hectic few days following a press photographer around London it was nice to get back to what I enjoy, wedding photography. Todays pre wedding shoot of Vicky and Paul was at the venue they have chosen for their big day, Swynford Paddocks near Newmarket. We were due some snow which luckily never materialised as Vicky really hates the cold and we got some great shots of the couple having some fun around the grounds Swynford.

Nicola & Daniel Pre Wedding Shoot

Saturday, February 13th, 2010

I had the pleasure of shooting the pre wedding session of Nicola and Daniel at my studio in Fenstanton this morning. The weather was consistent yet again and we had to contend with both snow showers and the cold, but the smiles and laughter never stopped and the couple seemed to enjoy themselves. There are some great locations around the studio and both Nicola and Daniel really got in to the shoot and the urban feel we introduced. They are getting married in March at the Old Bridge Hotel, Huntingdon, a great wedding venue on the edge of the Great Ouse.

I did a hair shoot a Molby’s Hair Salon in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire this afternoon. Our model, Amy had her hair styled twice to see the difference between two desired looks. The images are being used for the Loreal colour trophy competition.

Flora’s commercial/lifestyle shoot

Saturday, January 23rd, 2010

I met Flora in St Ives on Wednesday to shoot some shots for her letting agency business in Cambridge. After getting the images she required the shoot then developed in to a mini lifestyle session. It was a very cold day and Flora seemed to cope well with my one more shot routine.
