Hayley & James pre wedding at the William Cecil, Stamford

Thursday, March 22nd, 2012

I thought the morning had been hot but my afternoon shoot with Hayley and James in Stamford was even hotter, definite sun burn weather. If I can offer one piece of advice to all of this years bride and grooms, it would be to remember sun screen on your big day. It had been a few years since I had last been to the William Cecil but it was as beautiful as I remember and will be in full bloom when Hayley and James get married their in July.

Jo & Eden, Pre Wed shoot at Burghley House

Thursday, March 22nd, 2012

Wow, yesterday was a real scorcher at the pre wedding shoot of Jo and Eden at Burghley House near Stamford. The sun was out in force as we toured the house and grounds looking for the best locations for the wedding day, and I must say, we won’t be disappointed as the options are endless at this beautiful country estate. I like to shoot pre wedding images in totally different locations than those we will use on the big day and Burghley  just provides an endless choice of locations.  Jo and Eden will be getting married in May and the house should be covered in stunning flora of all descriptions, I can’t wait.

Holly & Stewart Pre Wed at Leez Priory, Essex

Wednesday, March 7th, 2012

I had a fab day yesterday whenI met Holly and Stewart at Leez Priory, their wedding venue for their big day in May. Pre wedding shoots normally only take a couple of hours but Leez Priory is such an amazing venue with so much to see and explore that we ended up staying for over three hours. I can honestly say that in all my years of wedding photography, I have never been to such a beautiful and well cared for venue as this. There are so many photographic possibilities at the Priory that I had to rain myself in and avoid over doing the shoot as I wanted to keep the best shots for the wedding day, I can’t wait.

Set in 40 acres of parkland, complete with lakes, lawns and a sweeping driveway, Leez Priory is offered to you exclusively for your wedding day. I will be there capturing the wedding of Holly & Stewart in May, and I simply can’t wait.

Louise & Hugo Pre Wedding Shoot, Fenstanton

Sunday, March 4th, 2012

Friday was a fun if not rather busy day which started off with the pre wedding shoot of Louise & Hugo near my studio in Fenstanton. Contrary to what the weather men had predicted,  the sun was beaming which always helps when a couple are nervous before a shoot. Most couples I meet hate their picture being taken and say they look terrible in photographs, but as I tell them, you have never been photographed by a professional before and they soon relax in to the shoot and leave the studio happy in the knowledge that their wedding images will be beautiful. Louise & Hugo will be getting married at the Double Tree Hotel in Cambridge.

Victoria & Chris’s Pre Wedding Shoot at Tattersalls

Monday, February 13th, 2012

We had arranged to hold Victoria and Chris’s pre wedding shoot at Tattersalls in Newmarket and the extreme weather wasn’t going to stop us. There was thick snow and temperatures dropping below 10 degrees, but all this just increased the fun, well I hope it did, lol. Tattersalls is a beautiful estate and the countries leading equine sales venue and I can see why Victoria and Chris picked it for their wedding venue. It is the first time I have worked at Tattersalls and even though the shoot was in snow, I’m sure the wedding day will be in beautiful sunshine and lush green surroundings.

Tattersalls shoot

Friday, February 10th, 2012

I will be at Tattersalls in Newmarket tomorrow for the shoot of Victoria & Chris. This will be the first time I have worked at Tattersalls, which was established in 1766 as one of the country s leading venues for equine sales. It will be good to have a good look around, as this is where my fiances horse Marley was sold to an Arab Sheik when he was only six months old for a figure most of us paid for our houses????

Chilford Hall Wedding Fair

Sunday, February 5th, 2012

Unfortunately Andy Fountain Photography will be another exhibitor that won’t be making it to Chilford Hall today. So sorry, I tried but even my 4×4 was sliding on the roads in our village. If you do decide to go, please be very careful as the roads around Chilford will be treacherous.
