"These are amazing. Thank you so much for documenting our special day. These will help us to remember everything for a long, long time to come!" I knew as soon as we had our first cuppa together that I was going to be in for a visual treat with this wedding.  Both Jen and Dan come from a theatrical background and had decided that they were going to stage a show to be remembered!  As we left 2019 and leapt into 2020 they had fallen upon the perfect theme - a fabulous Gatsby-esque 1920s party thrown at the gorgeous Mill Barns in Alveley. Every last detail had been considered and there To View More >>

Will it rain on my wedding day? What on earth do we do if it does? We happen to live in one of the greenest, most beautiful countries in Europe and it's mainly because of our rain/sunshine combo! So the chance of rain even on that summer saturday in August is high - at least 50/50. So what should you do? Here are some of my recent brides top tips; 1. Embrace it. You've got a fab venue, laugh, love and nip outside when you can for photos. If you are positive, your guests will be - happiness is infectious it spreads. 2. Have lots of clear brollies at the ready. As a photographer I always carry a To View More >>

Katy and Ollie are like 99% of us - not sure at all about having their photograph taken!  So we decided it would be a good idea to go for a stroll in Sutton park, get to know each other and let them get used to being trailed by a camera before their wedding day.  Apparently they have shared all the funny 'outtakes' with friends and family (I love this!) But just to reassure everyone here are my favourite ones that aren't quite as crazy.... ok so a few of my fave funny looks have snuck in..... I couldn't quite resitst!  If you speak to Katy nicely I'm sure she'll show you the rest To View More >>

As some of you will know my first career before photography was producing and directing documentaries and factual  television so when one of my fave programes 'Countryfile' asked me to follow them for a couple of days and capture behind the scenes photographs of their team at work I was thrilled! I still have super fond memories of (the one and only) John Craven having a cuppa in my kitchen before I drove him off to location.  I can still see my (usually very composed) hubby's face as John introduced himself  'Hello I'm John, John Craven' - the hubster just looked wide eyed To View More >>

Can't wait for this pair's big day!  We caught up on one of the crisp winter mornings we've had recently for a wander around Sutton Park and an engagement shoot. I’m often asked what an engagement shoot is and I'd say it's a chance for us to get to know each other better, maybe go for a cuppa, have a giggle and get some fabulous photos to boot! On your actual wedding day, you will be seeing a fair bit of me - dashing around with a couple of cameras, various lenses and possibly a step ladder - so spending some time getting to know each other and practising having a camera following you To View More >>
