It's a secret!

Complete naturals behind the camera.

Brian and Shari, Bailiffscourt Hotel and Spa

Brian and Shari got married at The Chapel within the grounds of The Bailiffscourt Hotel & Spa. The Ceremony was held early evening so the Chapel was absolutely full of church candles making the Ceremony really beautiful and memorable.




One very happy family.

Just one of the lovely rooms inside.

Couldn't resist showing you these great cakes, well actually.... cheesecakes!

Jason & Katy

St. Mary's Felpham and the boys


Katy's grand arrival. Look carefully and your see Dad's reflection which is why Katy has such a big smile.

Shripney Manor, Bognor Regis. Gorgeous grounds to have a wedding.

Got to have a shot with this great car.

Jason and Katy are very hard working Caterers that of course did themselves proud by serving all their own guests at Shripney Manor! The ceremony was held at the lovely church of St. Mary's Felpham. Then it was back to Shripney Manor where the gardens and grounds looked amazing. It's not often I get to photograph a wedding right on my own doorstep!

Keith and Teresa

Keith and Teresa had THE most wonderful wedding at Eastwell Manor in Ashford Kent.
It was really lovely to see all our Cousins again and of course to see Keith and Teresa so happy as husband and wife. Very long overdue you guys, but very well deserved finally!

Wiston House, Steyning, wedding of Laura and Marshall

A shot of Laura looking really fabulous and serene before we ventured downstairs arm in arm with Dad and followed by the bridesmaids and Pageboys to be married within the Church at Wiston House.



I think this one captures some of the Groom's personality, who was, as you can see, on excellent form.



Come on guys, what's with all the rabbiting? Look this way, just once.



Image taken of Laura outside the back of Wiston House, doing our Hello Magazine bit!

I absolutely love this image! Just give children some hats and glasses, and 'click bang, what a photograph'! Just captures children at their best having a great time inside the groovybooth that was laid on for all the guests to enjoy. Looking forward to catching up with you guys after your Barbados honeymoon.

Jonathon and Tracy

Ehh? Are the guests meant to be doing that?

Enjoying time together

Well Tracy did a really good job on her wedding day as she told me she absolutely hated having her picture taken (wish I had a £1 for every time one of my clients tells me that!), so I tried to blend in with the furniture, buildings, guests where possible. She looked stunning in her Monsoon wedding dress. The Court Room at Christ's Hospital was the amazing backdrop for Jonathon and Tracy's wedding. Absolutely beautiful architecture, English heritage at it's best, and so quiet around the buildings you could of heard a pin drop.

Chris and Joanna at The Tithe Barn

Special moments alone, but not for long.



Something a bit funky for the wedding album



Really pleased with this shot of Joanna, capturing the six arches within Tithe Barn




Waiting for the Bride to arrive




Within the Reception area of Tithe Barn

Spot the rings... ?? I don't normally put detail shots on to the blog, but these bay trees were so affective with there fairy lights at Tithe Barn that I just had to give Nigel of The Topiary Company a mention!

Joanna is one of those amazing brides that thinks of everything for her special day. The little details from their colour scheme, her dress, the amazing decorations, down to asking me whether I would like chicken for my supper at their reception (by the way it was delicious)!

Of course with Joanna thinking of all the special details they were married at the grand The Tithe Barn which is a Grade 11 listed building restored back to it's original state. If your looking for somewhere contemporary but with a bit of grandeur, this is for you.

Looking forward to hearing all about your honeymoon guys.

How many games can you fit in on a wedding day?

I had the best time with Drew and Kimberly last week at their wedding in Earnley. Drew and Kimberly were so relaxed and open to all kind of shots that would make their day fun, memorable and add great variation for their wedding album. This was a great recipe for photographic success and wonderful to have a memorable story with a difference to reflect back on. If I had a pound for every time someone tells me they hate being photographed, I'd be a rich woman, but it's so important to be able to enjoy the photography and let the story of your wedding day unfold. Before your special day we always talk through the organisation of your day so we can work in the photography in an easy natural progression throughout your day, this works really well so you know what to expect and enjoy.
