Last week I had the privilege of being part of the photography team at the wonderful Margaret’s Final Campaign event at the Grosvenor House Hotel, London.

The campaign was founded in memory of Baroness Margaret McDonagh, Labour’s first female General Secretary, who sadly died from glioblastoma, the most aggressive form of brain cancer. Her final wish was to help fund research and clinical trials with the aim of finding a cure for glioblastoma within ten years. Today, that mission is being continued by her sister, Dame Siobhain McDonagh MP.

It was an inspiring evening filled with generosity, determination and hope. I photographed members of the street team and many of the guests who came together to support this important cause. Familiar faces from EastEnders and television included Harriet Thorpe, Michelle Collins and Ross Kemp.

Although many people know me for wedding photography, I also photograph charity events, corporate occasions, awards evenings and celebrity appearances. Being trusted to document evenings like this is always a privilege.

A huge thank you to everyone involved in such a memorable event and for supporting the fight against brain cancer.

A cure for glioblastoma within ten years.

“Weddings may be my speciality, but I always enjoy documenting meaningful events and meeting some fascinating people along the way.”

Gary and Verna’s wedding at Morden Park House on a beautiful sunny April day was full of laughter from start to finish.

After years together, they finally made it official, surrounded by their closest friends and family. The ceremony was followed by a relaxed drinks reception in the gardens, making the most of the stunning spring sunshine and the beautiful setting of Morden Park House.

A genuinely joyful wedding day, full of warmth, fun and so many natural moments.

Patrick and Sian celebrated their wedding at Islington Town Hall in the beautiful Council Chambers, surrounded by their closest friends and family.

They wanted the day captured naturally, with a relaxed documentary approach and very little posing, which is exactly the kind of wedding photography I love. We spent just 10–15 minutes taking a few couple portraits before returning to what mattered most — the laughter, conversations, hugs, speeches, and all the moments in between that made the day uniquely theirs.

The celebrations continued at The Myddleton Arms on Canterbury Road, a wonderful Irish pub full of warmth, character, and a brilliant atmosphere for the evening reception.

Elaine & Kevin’s wedding at Richmond Hill Hotel in Richmond was nothing short of incredible.
A day full of genuine moments, captured in a relaxed, documentary style — the kind where you can simply enjoy everything as it unfolds, while I quietly capture it all in the background.

There were so many brilliant surprises, but none more memorable than Eddie the singing waiter making his appearance — what a moment. The room came alive, every guest got involved, and the energy was just fantastic.

From the laughter during the ceremony (even the registrar had everyone smiling) to the packed dance floor later on, it was one of those weddings where everything just clicks.

A truly lovely couple, a brilliant atmosphere, and a real privilege to be trusted to capture it all.

Louise and Matt celebrated their wedding at Morden Hall after a church ceremony in Fulham. Before joining their guests, we took a quiet walk through the grounds for a few couple photographs in the beautiful autumn sunshine, with light glistening through the trees. The rest of the day was all about natural moments with plenty of candid photographs. After the wedding breakfast and speeches, the singing waiters got everyone involved and laughing. The evening finished with their first dance followed by sparklers outside Morden Hall.

Jo & Jason 🤍
An amazing couple and a genuinely lovely wedding day from last August.

Their ceremony took place at the beautiful, historic Honeywood Museum — no confetti allowed, but bubbles instead, which felt just right. Steeped in history and full of character.

Afterwards we wandered through Carshalton, past the ponds and through the park, before heading on to the reception at the The Greyhound.

We spent around 20 minutes taking relaxed photos just for them — nothing stiff or overly posed — and the rest of the day was simply about capturing things as they happened. The moments in between. The laughter, the movement, the little glances and interactions you don’t even realise are happening at the time.

That’s always my approach: being there with the action, not just the important photos, but catching that bit extra — the candid, spur-of-the-moment moments that help you remember the day exactly as it felt.

A wedding full of laughter, rhythm and joy.
From a morning of dancing and fun while Ali got ready, to a vibrant aisle entrance celebrating her arrival with traditional African dance, this wedding at Ravenswood was a beautiful fusion of cultures.
Finished perfectly with quiet moments by the lake — one of those days that stays with you.
