Victoria and Pete were married at Kingston Maurward, a stunning wedding venue near Tolpuddle in Dorset. After the ceremony, they returned to Southover House for their relaxed marquee wedding reception.

Earlier this summer my friend, Luisa, asked me if I would photograph her wedding in Jersey.  She was marrying Michael in the most amazing location overlooking St Ouen’s beach on the west coast of the beautiful island of Jersey.  I have to admit I was a little nervous about photographing a friend and also being… Read more »

Becky and James chose Monkton Barn near Marlow for their wedding and it was the perfect location for a relaxed barn wedding.

I met Stef and Yuri on a sunny summer’s evening for their Oxford Wedding Shoot.  They had a small register office wedding the week before and asked me to mark the occasion with a photo shoot in the historic and beautiful centre of Oxford.

Last October, I was delighted to be asked to photograph and collaborate with a brilliant group of wedding creatives to put together an Old World Glamour styled wedding photo shoot at the Weston Manor Country House Hotel near Oxford.

Neil and Heather were married at The Crown Inn at Pishill, a beautiful barn wedding wedding in the Chiltern hills outside Henley on Thames in Oxfordshire. A perfect location for an autumn wedding.

I photographed Zoe and Adam’s wedding last October.  They had a traditional church service at St Michael’s in Warfield with a very laid back Vicar followed by a reception at The Cricketers pub, in Warfield.  It was a fabulous wedding to photograph, relaxed and family orientated with lots of fun.

Natalie and Trevor had a small and intimate wedding in The Secret Garden at Rockley Manor situated near the historic town of Marlborough in Wiltshire.  The Grade II listed Manor House is a stunning, luxury wedding venue with quintessential english grounds offering wonderful photo opportunities.

Jillian and Stephen held their wedding at Hotel du Vin Henley on Thames on a very rainy day in September.  I love to photograph weddings at the Hotel du Vin as it is such a quirky venue and perfect for a small, intimate wedding party.  A former brewery for 300 years, the hotel is made up of several historic listed buildings and is one of the most interesting hotels in the Henley area.

Hannah and Shaun held their wedding at the Olde Bell in Hurley, a picturesque village in Berkshire. The Olde Bell Hotel is a Grade II listed Coaching Inn steeped in history and character.  The wedding ceremony and reception were being held in the historic Tithe Barn with drinks in the Victorian Malthouse opposite full of rooms oozing with character, a wedding photographer’s dream location.

Ben and Emma were married in All Saints Church in Marlow and afterwards held their reception at the Oakley Court Hotel near Windsor. The Oakley Court Hotel is a magnificent Victorian Gothic manor house hotel near Windsor, situated in extensive, beautiful grounds on the banks of the Thames. I arrived in the morning at Emma’s Mum’s… Read more »

Laura and Ross held their spring wedding at the Crown Inn, Pishill in the glorious Chiltern hills near Henley on Thames in Oxfordshire. A perfect venue for a relaxed barn wedding.

Nici and Simon held their Scottish destination wedding at the Crear wedding venue on the west coast of Scotland.  I know I am biased, being Scottish, but Crear is the most beautiful wedding location I have ever photographed.

Kelly and Sean’s Anglo/American summer wedding was held at Shiplake College, a beautiful Berkshire wedding venue, on the river near Henley on Thames.   Shiplake College was the former school of the groom and many of their family and friends had travelled from the USA for the special day.

I first met Ben and Iola at a Guides for Brides wedding fair in 2016.  They liked my natural style of photography and booked me to photograph their Crown and Thistle  wedding in Abingdon. They were married in St Nicolas’ Church in the centre of Abingdon and they held their reception a short walk away in the quaint… Read more »

Jo and Simon’s barn wedding at Merriscourt near Chipping Norton in the Cotswolds gave me an opportunity to return to my favourite wedding venue. As a wedding photographer, I love the relaxed atmosphere, stunning views and the varied photography opportunities that the venue has to offer.

Last August, on one of the hottest days of the summer, I had the pleasure of capturing Emma and Josh’s wedding in a very elegant marquee in Emma’s parents’ garden near Henley on Thames in Oxfordshire. Such a stunning location, with lots of nooks and crannies for photographs. I love a marquee wedding at home, it just gives you the freedom to do your own thing and it is a perfect, relaxed way to host a wedding.

Simon and Jo were getting married at Merriscourt in the summer and we did their pre wedding photo shoot near the river in Henley on Thames. I offer a complimentary engagement or pre wedding photo shoot with all my full day wedding packages.   I suggest we go somewhere you enjoy going to, take a… Read more »

Jesika and Luke’s autumn wedding was at the beautiful Wasing Park wedding venue set in the 18th century parkland of Wasing Estate, near Aldermaston in Berkshire. It is my second Wasing Park Wedding and it is one of my favourites in the area.

Matthew and Grace live in the Middle East and wanted to have their rustic summer wedding in a quintessentially english venue, close to Heathrow for their friends and family who would be flying in from all over the world for their wedding.

Mark and Becky’s wedding in the Cotswolds was one of my favourites from 2015. I knew from my first meeting with them that they wanted natural wedding photographs and they liked the documentary feel of my work.

Last year I had the opportunity to work with lovely couples who invited me to photograph their weddings. I visited beautiful barn and stately home wedding venues, such as Merriscourt in the Cotswolds, Crown Inn, Pishill, Bix Manor, Phyllis Court, The Elvetham, Bisham Abbey, Danesfield House and the wonderful Wasing Park, to name a few. One of my favourites was a marque wedding in the Bride’s family garden near Henley on the hottest day of the year.

Ide and Chris’s family had come from Ireland, Australia and all over the UK for their wedding at the Elephant Hotel, Pangbourne in Berkshire. The Elephant is a quirky, boutique hotel in the centre of Pangbourne, decorated in a colonial style with indian furniture, oriental rugs and lots of elephants!

Kelly and Sean live in London with Giorgio, their very cute dog, and as Kelly is American, she was keen to incorporate the English countryside into their pre wedding shoot. I suggested we meet on a Sunday morning in the quintessentially English village of Turville in the beautiful Chiltern hills.

I was very happy to be booked to photograph Caroline and Phil’s Stoke Park Wedding. Stoke Park Club is a stunning Buckinghamshire wedding venue, just outside Stoke Poges.

My New Year’s Eve 2016 turned out a little different than planned when I went to the rescue of a Bride and Groom whose Wedding Photographer had to pull out of their wedding at Bix Manor near Henley in Oxfordshire at the 11th hour. It turned out to be an amazing, fun filled wedding with lots of surprises.

When Laura and Rob first approached me about photographing their wedding at Bix Manor, it became obvious from our first chat that their wedding was going to be fun. They just wanted all their family and friends together and to have a party which is my kind of wedding and always fun to capture. Laura also planned the wedding in less than 2 months which is definitely a challenge as they did not have a small wedding!

Hailey and Carl had approached me over a year ago after I was recommended to them by one of my previous brides. They had liked my natural, informal approach to wedding photography and wanted their images to be as relaxed as possible. They had asked me to tell the story of their day with a mixture of documentary images, some group shots and some lovely natural couple shots.

It was a cold and windy December day last year when I met up with Liz and her bridesmaids in The Oxford Hotel to start capturing Liz and fiancé Ash’s wedding day. I had met Liz a year before at a networking event and she liked my natural style of wedding photography and had booked me to document the story of their day. They wanted a mixture of documentary photography and fine art bridal portraits and that is just what I do!

Lynn and Peter’s wedding was a lovely, happy, intimate and relaxed day with only 11 guests and they chose to get married at Henley Register Office and have a lunch reception at Orwells Restaurant in Shiplake, near Henley on Thames. They liked the documentary style of my photography and asked me to take lots of natural, candid shots throughout the day.
