    December is always a busy time for wedding and portrait photographers as more and more people are getting married in the winter months and of course families would like lifestyle portraits so they can give their friends and family the pictures for Christmas.


    I had the pleasure of carrying out a portrait shoot with Nigel Morgan (local PR guru at Morgan PR) and his adorable daughter Bethy, and lets not forget their gorgeous sheep dog and chickens.  The photo shoot was a particularly good one, Bethy was very at ease in front of the camera and I used my relaxed and intimate approach to photography to make it fun and get some real laughs.

    Here are a few of my favorite images from the portrait session and I’m pleased to report both Nigel and Bethy are over the moon with the images, which always makes my day!

    Winter weddings are definitely getting more popular and to be honest I highly recommend them, I myself got married on 22nd December.  The low light or in fact darkness can make for some great photographs.


    Im off to the Vineyard and Stockcross this weekend to photograph Andrew & Kerry’s wedding day and we popped up there last week to go through the wedding day timings and take some test shots.   A pre-wedding test shoot is something I offer free of charge to those couples that would like it.  Not everyone takes up this option but Andrew and Kerry wanted it so that on their wedding day they know what to expect from me and so they could see just how relaxed I make them when doing their signature wedding images.

    The Vineyard at Stockcross makes a fantastic backdrop to photographs both night and day, but the flames in the water feature at the front of the hotel really do come to life at night.

    Below are a couple of my favorite images from the photo shoot, some great low light photographs!
