One of my new year resolutions for 2012 is to make sure I keep this site up to date. Since the last update I’ve been so busy I’ve run out of time but as that gives the pardoxical impression that I’m not working I know it’s important to keep on top of the updates. To [...]

Mark and Mandi – Ashdown Park Hotel & Barnsgate Manor
Mark and Mandi - Ashdown Park Hotel & Barnsgate Manor

  Mark and Mandi got married in early July at the lovely Barnsgate Manor in East Sussex, with Mandi getting ready at the Ashdown Park Hotel. The wedding was huge fun from start to finish with a very close knit atmosphere, such that the toastmaster commented it was one of the happiest and most enjoyable [...]

Photo of the Week number 4

I’ve been so busy recently I’ve got a bit behind with photos of the week – starting to catch up though. This photograph was grabbed as the couple walked away back to the bridal car following a formal posed shot by the lake and old church at Orchardleigh. I like it because it was taken [...]

Photo of the Week number 3
Photo of the Week number 3

This photograph was taken last summer at the English Wine Centre in Alfriston, Sussex, and shows the bride, Amanda, while she was getting ready in the morning.   I chose this photo for several reasons: I like it as a photograph of a bride, and I like it both standalone and in the sequence of [...]

Rob & Hannah – Highley Manor Wedding Photography
Rob & Hannah - Highley Manor Wedding Photography

A few weeks ago I photographed Rob & Hannah for their lovely wedding at St Mary’s Church in Horsham, followed by the reception at Highley Manor. Their preshoot at Greenwich Park had been very enjoyable and a real opportunity to get to know them better, and I knew the day would be full of their [...]

Photo of the Week number 2

This photograph of a bride entering St Etheldreda’s church in London was taken in December 2009, just before Christmas. The story of the image is below: Catherine and Steve’s ceremony was early evening the week before Christmas, a really special, romantic and personal winter wedding. Everything about it spoke of their personalities and there is [...]

Emma and Darren – preshoot in Alfriston
Emma and Darren - preshoot in Alfriston

A few weeks ago I met up with Emma and Darren for their preshoot in Alfriston. A preshoot is a great chance to get some portraits taken at the same time as getting used to having your photograph taken professionally. I offer a preshoot with all my packages and I think every couple that has [...]

Photo of the Week number 1

I’m going to start posting a photo of the week on my blog that will be a photo I like, with a small explanation of why I like it. For the first one I’ve chosen this photograph taken nearly 3 years ago at a wedding at Newick Park in East Sussex. I’ve chosen it because [...]

Weddings in Lewes - photograph used for feature

One of my photographs was recently used in the excellent Viva Lewes magazine to illustrate a feature about getting married in Lewes.  The photograph, shown below, is one of my favourite images and one that a great many couples who see it ask me about. I find Lewes a fantastic town to live and work in [...]

Lisa and Alex – Alexander House, Sussex. Winter wedding photography.
Lisa and Alex - Alexander House, Sussex. Winter wedding photography.

Winter weddings are a favourite of mine - I got married in winter myself, and the very first wedding I ever photographed was in the depths of December too. They bring challenges that you only get that time of year – I’ve had fog so dense that visibility is reduced to a metre, heavy snow that [...]

Katie and Nick pre-wedding shoot, Richmond Park London
Katie and Nick pre-wedding shoot, Richmond Park London

I met Katie and Nick at the wedding of Katie and Craig at Alexander House. Katie was a bridesmaid that day and booked me soon after for her own wedding. It’s always nice to get referals and recommendations, and similarly when this kind of thing happens (which I’m pleased to say happens a lot!) where [...]

Hannah and Rob – preshoot Greenwich Park
Hannah and Rob - preshoot Greenwich Park

Hannah and Rob have booked me for their wedding in 2011 and were keen to have the preshoot showing some of the autumnal colours of their local Greenwich Park. One of the things I really enjoy about the preshoot is that it is an opportunity to get to know the couple better too and it [...]

Katie and Craig Alexander House wedding
Katie and Craig Alexander House wedding

I met Katie and Craig at the Alexander House wedding fair and was over the moon when they chose to book me to photograph their wedding. They immediately came across as a lovely couple and I knew that their day would be a lot of fun. On top of that Alexander House is one of [...]

Jon and Jennifer wedding photographs Buxted Park
Jon and Jennifer wedding photographs Buxted Park

The lovely Jon and Jen got married at Buxted Park , a fabulous venue whatever the weather. It was one of those “four seasons in one day” type weddings – a windy morning and 20 minutes before the ceremony was due to start we had a massive torrential downpour yet within half an hour we had [...]

Anna and David, Addington Palace wedding photographs
Anna and David, Addington Palace wedding photographs

I was really pleased when Anna and David contacted me about their wedding. Not only were they having their reception at Addington Palace, a venue I’ve photographed at before and like a lot, but they’d also been referred by a previous happy couple and nothing reinforces that someone likes their photographs so much as when [...]

Mark and Jackie wedding – Sidcup, Kent
Mark and Jackie wedding - Sidcup, Kent

I’ve known Mark for a few years now having been introduced by a friend from University, and somehow I have come to associate him with all the times I’m most terrified, until now at least! In 1996 – in fact, probably the first time I met him – we did a bungee jump off the [...]

Amanda & James wedding, Firle Church and English Wine Centre at Alfriston
Amanda & James wedding, Firle Church and English Wine Centre at Alfriston

Amanda and James booked me for their wedding a long time ago, something I recommend to every couple, whichever photographer they are booking! They are the kind of couple it’s impossible not to warm to the moment you meet them and I knew how special and emotional their big day was going to be. I [...]

Jane and Bob wedding – Lewes Grange
Jane and Bob wedding - Lewes Grange

When I first met Jane and Bob towards the end of last year to discuss their wedding I was immediately excited by their plans.  They are a truly lovely couple, and were planning a small wedding here in Lewes before a large Chinese celebration back in Toronto with Jane’s family. The ceremony in Lewes was [...]

Katie and Craig - wedding pre-shoot

I met Katie and Craig at the Alexander House wedding fair in January and was delighted when they booked me as their wedding photographer for their big day this summer. The wedding is drawing near now and like many couples they opted to take me up on the free pre-shoot I offer with many of [...]

Michelle & Steve wedding – Plumpton, East Sussex
Michelle & Steve wedding - Plumpton, East Sussex

A few weeks ago I photographed the wedding of Steve and Michelle in Plumpton, East Sussex. The ceremony was at the ancient church with the reception in a marquee in the college grounds. Everything about the wedding was absolutely perfect, the guests had a fantastic time, and the setting was beautiful with the Sussex Downs [...]

Wedding – Goodwood Park Hotel & Oving Church
Wedding - Goodwood Park Hotel & Oving Church

Normally when taking photographs I work alone but recently I worked with Aimee Kirkham , a very talented photographer based in Oxford. While Aimee was photographing Ann-Marie’s bridal preparations I was photographing Matt, the groom and his party getting ready at the Goodwood Park Hotel, and we then met up at the lovely St Andrews [...]

Rebecca and Tim – Wedding Photography Singing Hills, Sussex
Rebecca and Tim - Wedding Photography Singing Hills, Sussex

People always talk about summer being the wedding season but for me the boundaries are much less clear these days. I seem to be used as a bit of a winter wedding specialist, with December one of my busiest months most years and several times couples have come to me having had photographers turn down [...]

Stuart & Charlotte’s wedding, St Luke’s Battersea & Bluebird Kings Road, Chelsea
Stuart & Charlotte's wedding, St Luke's Battersea & Bluebird Kings Road, Chelsea

In April I had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of Stuart and Charlotte at St Luke’s Chuch in Battersea, London, with the reception at the Bluebird on Kings Road, Chelsea. April has had some of the best weather for weddings for me over the past few years and this was no exception with perfect [...]
