    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!

    Last weekend so me take the trip down to London once again, for two reasons the first being to photograph Aruna and Claire who will be married at Pembroke College in oxford on 16th August, and the second reason, my 30th birthday!!!

    My husband was away unfortunately but that is one of the pit falls of being married to a F1 technician so while he was working hard at the Hungarian grand Prix, I went to celebrate in style with my girl friends.  The champagne corks popped as the train pulled out of Newbury, so thanks girls for I had a fabulous time although my recollection of it is somewhat hazy, can’t think why!! ;o)

    So yes the other reason was to photography Aruna & Claire, they live down there and having two children it was a good idea for me to go to them rather than the other way around.  Rain threatened but never materialised so I was able to get some great shots, the cloud was quite low and menacing which for me made the shots all the more interesting.

    So here they are the soon to be Mr & Mrs….

    I will be shooting Brian & Helen’s wedding at Friars Court, Oxfordshire on Saturday so we got together a couple of days ago to do some pre-wedding shots.

    It was a great idea as neither Brian nor Helen like having their photo taken so hopefully after this they will have relaxed a little for the special day.

    Here a few images from my latest pre-wedding shoot, some couples like to arrange a shoot before their big day to get them used to the camera and then they use the mount around one of the pictures as their guest book.

    Arron and Harriet are getting married on 31st May so we went to their wedding venue to so a walk round and the shoot, however I clearly jinxed things with my last shoot because the weather was horrendous so we had to do them inside, fingers crossed the sun comes out next week!
