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.

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

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.

Westergate Community School Art's Day

This sign is going to be one of many decorative signs to be put outside of Westergate Nursery
to help brighten up the walls.

Working with bright coloured crisp packets to make fashion items with a difference.


Westergate Community School, based just on the outskirts of Bognor Regis going up towards Fontwell specialises in visual and performing arts. Westergate is a mixed comprehensive catering for all levels of ability in the crucial secondary years of schooling. Here is just a very small selection of images from their two day Arts Day. The day had a great atmosphere and the children and teachers were very absorbed in all their exciting activities. Well done everyone involved and have a fantastic summer break.

Westergate School Prom

In Hummer Heaven.......


Some of Abby's friends in some excellent fun dresses



And here's Abby looking completely stunning.

June and July is always a very busy month for all kinds of events, and in fact I often find they can double up on the same day! Of course for school leavers it's a really exciting time with new beginnings and going out in style with the school prom. Abby and all of her friends got together to hire a huge Hummer to ensure they really arrived in style up at the Avisford Park Hotel.

Capturing the evening light

Mercy looking HOT in amongst the vines



What a great smile

This time of year is amazing for the wonderful evening light. Early evening is a fantastic time for when the sun is low in the sky and Voila, you get some magical shots, therefore being one of my favourite times of the day and year for capturing beautiful images. With Mercy, our lovely model, who could go wrong?

Thanks for a fun shoot set in the beautiful peaceful surroundings of Earnley Concourse which is situated in rural Earnley, West Sussex. It is a purpose-designed residential centre, offering a year-round programme of leisure interest courses and activity weeks, and is really fantastic for getting away from it all so go on treat yourself.

Katie

Ready for the Prom


Pre-Raphaelite Goddess Katie!



Katie outside her childhood Playhouse

Cheeky Face...

I had a great morning photographing Katie in her home. Being a huge fan of Pre-Raphaelite paintings, I can't help but think of the classics when I look at Katie. She has stunning red classical hair and the looks of a Pre-Raphaelite Goddess! I set up a mini studio and put my muscles to the test by rearranging their front room with all my gear. All in a good day's work! As the weather was behaving itself for once we were able to also have fun enjoying their lovely garden as a great back drop for some nice lifestyle shots giving plenty of variation with the controlled lighting of the studio shots. Wishing Katie a very special 18th Birthday.

Jonathon & Tracy

The nice thing about doing engagement shoots is from time to time you can discover beautiful new areas to shoot in. I met Jonathon and Tracy at Sullington Warren where it is famous locally for it's beautiful heath land and 39 steps. Here are a couple of shots from our Engagement shoot. I'm really looking forward to their wedding at Christ's Hospital.
