So this occasional series is fast-becoming a regular one. Trades Descriptions actions notwithstanding, I hope you’ll indulge me. February and March are typically fairly quiet periods for us wedding photographers in terms of weddings to shoot, so it seems a good time to spend on the behind-the-scenes stuff (ie. the less fun part of running…
What. A. Year. It’s only just finished, so it seemed apt to post a review of 2012. It’s not a ‘Best Of’ as such. That’s pretty much impossible to do in one post. I’ve limited myself to 3 shots from each shoot (and that in itself wasn’t the easiest limit to impose). It’s a thank…
So here we go – the last wedding of summer 2012. The last August wedding before we flew off for a week of sun and it was at the ever lovely Gate Street Barn with the equally splendid Jenny and Dyfed, plus some damn fine bridesmaids. Step forward Alex, Bryony and Helen…..I posted up a…
The second of 2 weddings last weekend, and the second of two at the rather splendid Gate Street Barn.

My word it rained for Helen and Tristan last Thursday. Apparently this was the ‘European Monsoon’ and that’s a pretty apt name. And yet, and yet…….weddings like this can go either way. The weather can define the day, or the couple can look at the rain, smile, and enjoy every moment of their day. This…
If Carlsberg did weather……. This was truly a wedding of 2 halves. The first half, a morning that started and continued with rain right from my arrival at The Swan Inn, Chiddingfold, to my short, windswept drive to Gate Street Barn for Louise and Andy’s quietly classy wedding. It was raining so hard that when…
