BIG VIBES IN THE BIG SMOKE! I have been so excited for this wedding ever since Lara & Josh contacted me last year, I love how they met each other and how they have built a life together, and I knew that the relaxed vibes were going to make for some brilliant candid moments to capture and it was a BANGER 🙂

We had a brilliant morning of chilled prep, Grandma Diana made me a lovely cuppa, before travelling up for a beautiful ceremony & drinks reception at Lambeth Town Hall! We then had a mad bus ride and a short walk to the wonderful Lordship pub for the rest of a day that was filled with laughter, emotion, some truly heartfelt speeches and a kick ass party with the fantastic Danger Goat live band! Lara & Josh were a genuine joy to spend time with, they are honestly so well suited to one another, and it was a massive privilege being trusted by them to capture their day! I was made to feel so welcomed and involved by all their guests and family, I had a grin on my face all day in fact, and I think you can feel the love and positive energy in these images 🙂

Here are a few personal highlights from a stunning day with the awesome Lara & Josh! Thanks for trusting me guys 📸

⚡ CHAMPAGNE & SUNSETS! GET IT DOWN YA MUSH⚡

Gus embracing his husband duties and making sure Katie was fully hydrated after a long day of looking FLY...and the favour was duly returned 🤣

Letting people be themselves is a huge part of what I offer when capturing your day, I value personality far more than poses, so if you like what you see and you're doing the mighty deed anytime soon, slide into my DM's and let's see if I'm the right camera ninja for you 📸

CHRIS⚡LA

TOGETHER IN ELECTRIC GREENS! La & Chris absolutely smashed this super chilled & unconventional wedding over the scorching Bank Holiday at the Tivoli in Cambridge, literally the only formality they had was the ceremony itself, choosing instead to do what they really wanted, which was to enjoy beers, play the shuffleboard, organise a team mini golf championship and eat pizza!

I adore that they decided to do it their way, and they nailed it, not only looking effortlessly cool AF in those outfits (WHAT A DRESS BY THE WAY - BOTH OF THEM HAHA) but also embracing the occasion with some cool portraits of themselves, despite them both being telling me they were not photogenic (newsflash - yes you freaking are!) and both hating being in photographs (erhh you look MIGHTY FINE together guys!).

I had a blast hanging out with these two legends and the absolute loons that they call their friends and family, honestly can't think of a minute that wasn't filled with laughter and mischief, how is this my job? AMAZING 🙂

Here are some personal highlights from a totally unique and ace day with the kick ass La & Chris 📸

ROCK N ROLL DREAMS COMES TRUE! Holy moly, what a total BANGER of a Mulberry House wedding with the awesome Katie & Gus...and STEVE & BRUCE & OZZY!

I knew from the very first seconds of chatting to these guys we were going to have a blast of a wedding, they are so well suited, and being metal heads like myself, we got on like the true brothers & sisters of metal that we are!

We also had the pleasure of their amazing frenchies OZZY & BRUCE join us for some photos proudly wearing their JUDAS POOCH & BARK SABBATH battle jackets, some hilarious and emotional speeches, a brilliant live performance of the DISTURBED version of Sound Of Silence that went into SYSTEM OF A DOWN for a first dance followed by a golden hour champagne spray to end the day on a high! ROCK N ROLL DREAMS COME TRUE! GUS & KATIE = LEGENDS ❤️

THEY SAID THEY HATED PHOTOGRAPHS OF THEMSELVES BUT JUST LOOK AT THEM! L&J = WEDDING WINNERS ❤️

It's been a minute since I have shot a wedding at the lovely Barnsdale Lodge, it's always been a venue I have enjoyed though, so I was delighted when the fantastic Lisa & Jason asked me to be their photographer at this lush location.

I loved their enquiry, but when they told me 'We're both quite awkward in front of a camera and look weird in very posed pictures! You'll have a job making us look as attractive as your other couples...' it made me laugh, not least because I hear this from so many couples that book in with me, but because I know for a fact that EVERYONE is photogenic with the right photographer and my speciality is awkward people haha! I told them they would be too excited to be self-conscious, and I also know that Lisa's Italian heritage would absolutely come to the front in her dress and outfit choices, so they would look BLOODY AMAZING and just look at them both! Totally smashed it and them shoes...LEGENDS 🙂

The whole day was incredible fun, there were so many children running around having the time of their lives (I was asked not to post them so I have not but those kids were INSANE), and both myself and John had a great time chatting with the lovely guests and capturing this day in the relaxed and unintrusive manner that Jason & Lisa wanted. Massive shout out to Liz Staniland for setting the tone early doors with the great banter and for Dean Maudsley for being a general dude 👌

Here are a few personal highlights from a fantastic day with a truly lovely couple 📸

TATTOOS, BOOZE, TWO DRESSES & ONE RIOT OF A WEDDING! Yes Chloe & Conner, despite knocking this whole day together in a matter of months, you SMASHED IT OUT OF THE PARK!

I had met C&C last year shooting another wedding for some mutual friends, and they had told me they were considering NOT having a photographer but changed their mind having met me and seen my work, which was a massive compliment that really did mean the world to me ❤️

The whole day, at the super stunning Lanwades Hall, was a celebration of love, fun, alternative lifestyles and embracing who you are, which for me, is what marrying your best friend should be about and it's obvious when you meet these two that that is exactly what they are. I had the best time being part of their day and I'm so happy the decided to have a photographer after all because this day DESERVED TO BE CAPTURED ❤️

Here are some personal highlights from a truly incredible wedding with C&C 🙂

HOLMEWOOD HALL WEDDING WINNER! I had a fantastic day capturing the awesome wedding of Nathan & Victoria at the ever stunning Holmewood Hall on Saturday, not only did I spend the entire day laughing my t**s off at all the bridal party shenanigans going on, I also managed to take some photos haha, and what a great day it was!

I knew from the laugh we had over zoom that Victoria & Nathan were MY kind of people, and that this wedding was going to be full of laughs, love, emotion and PLENTY of mischief, so I was really delighted when they trusted me to capture it for them! CHEERS GUYS ❤️

Here are some personal highlights from a brilliant day with N&V 🙂

CRAIG⚡ELENA

GOLDEN HOUR RAIN SHOWER MAGICAL WEDDING WINNERS! Take a bow Elena & Craig, not only did you CRUSH this awesome & beautiful Happy Valley wedding, but the way you embraced that entirely predictable rain shower during golden hour was genuinely HEROIC (and you saved me having a mild panic attack for taking you out just for that to happen haha)!

C&E choose the stunning Happy Valley for their day, and despite the weather deciding to do what felt like change through all 4 seasons every hour, they timed a break in the wind and rain to perfection to get married on the romantic island in the lake. It was a breath taking setting, one filled with laughter and emotion, and set the tone for a day filled with love, mischief and just a few double chins 🤣

WHAT A DAY! I knew this was going to be awesome just from the video chat we had when Craig & Elena booked me, but I have to give a massive shout out to the bridesmaids (RELEASE THE NI***ES) and the groomsmen (TINY HANDS DAN OI OI) for all being a brilliant laugh and being incredible fun to be around all day...oh and I really hope Trousers managed to find some legwear that actually fit him before he left the wedding 🤣

Here are some personal highlights from a fantastic wedding in the Norfolk countryside 🙂

BAGPIPES, BOOZE & BONNIE THE DOG TOO! What a way to really kick off my 2026 wedding season fully with the amazing Rehanna, Chaz and Bonnie at the beautiful Pike & Eel at Cambridge Marina!

It's always incredible when fellow industry people trust you to capture their day, so when Chaz & Rehanna from the amazing music duo CHARLIE & REHANNA asked me to be their photographer I was chuffed, not least because I knew it was going to be an absolute banger of a day, but also because they are both wonderful humans ❤️

The kilts were immense, the bridal party were raving before midday, the lads were downing whisky before the bag piper had even turned up and Bonnie the ring bearer stole the show...WHAT A WEDDING!

I just wanted to do a big shout out the families of both R & C, they were lovely throughout the day and a proper laugh, plus a really special shout out to Sian for being a brilliant laugh to work with on the video! 🤘

Here are some personal highlights from a truly amazing day! MON THE ROBINSONS 🙂
