WPJA Contest winners 2013 Q2 | Award Winning Photography
Finding an excuse to list your Award Winning Photography is always a pleasant thing to do. Last week I received three awards from the Wedding Photojournalist Association. What makes this particularly satisfying is the WPJA is a highly prestigious organisation which...

6 Chad’s Place Wedding Photography | Emily & Ross
6 Chad's Place Wedding Photography This was not only my first foray into 6 Chad's Place Wedding Photography, this was my first foray into 6 Chad's Place -- a really great hidden bar, tucked away in the backstreets of Kings Cross that doubles up as a fantastically...

my kind of image: wedding editorial
This week's image is a little different in that it's wedding editorial. For anyone following my work it's probably fairly apparent that, while I do see myself as a wedding photojournalist, I'm not a purist. I think there's a danger that as soon as you label...

Bethnal Green Town Hall Hotel Wedding Photographer
Bethnal Green Town Hall Hotel Wedding Photographer I’m starting to become an old hand at Bethnal Green Town Hall hotel weddings, which is nice, a) because it’s on my doorstep in East London, and b) because it’s a great venue. Mind you, being a great venue doesn’t...

St Tropez Wedding — Sneak Peek
This weekend I had the huge pleasure of shooting Viktoria and Troy's St Tropez wedding. To say the day was stylish, glamorous and beautiful is a flat out crazy understatement. It was head-spinningly stylish. Gawpingly cartoon-eyes-popping-out-of-your-head-on-stalks...

Central London Wedding Photographer
Bethnal Green Town Hall Hotel Wedding Photographer Today's blog brings you two London weddings for the price of one. That's the reason there's a fair number of images to pour through -- because there were two ceremonies, two bridal preps and two dresses. That maybe...

my kind of image: alternative children’s photography
I suppose this week's photo and discussion is a little more subjective and abstract than the previous My Kind of Image entries, and is more about image making. I've titled this post Alternative Children's Photography, but it's perhaps that only in a loosely defined...

My Kind of Image: The Groomsmen
So for this week's image I thought I'd feature a groomsmen shot I took recently at a wedding at Orleans House Gallery in Twickenham. The reason I'm looking at it here today is that, in terms of documentary wedding photography, group shots are tricky. The very fact...

Destination Wedding Photography | Kalkan, Turkey
Destination Wedding Photography | Kalkan, Turkey There's something about destination wedding photography that gives the brain a bit of a spring clean. It's the different food, different sights, new surroundings. Maybe the physical act of flying to the wedding. Of...

my kind of image: father of the bride
There are some photos that are just all about the moment, and this is one of them. The father of the bride seeing his daughter in her wedding dress for the first time. I've included the next two shots to show you the embrace and because it's important as a series,...

my kind of image: wedding tableau
So this is going to be the first entry in a regular series of posts about particular images, what they mean to me and why I took them. This first post is about the wedding tableau. What I love about pictures like this is the way the camera is able to truly freeze a...

London and Berkshire Wedding Photographer
London and Berkshire Wedding Photographer If this wedding looks a little bit back-to-front and topsy turvy to you, it's only because it was. I don't even know if I should be calling this Berkshire wedding photography because the wedding itself took place in London,...

Stoke Newington Town Hall Wedding Photographer
Stoke Newington Town Hall Wedding Photographer To say that Natalie and Jesse's Stoke Newington Town Hall wedding was kid friendly is an exercise in understatement. At times it felt like half the guests there were children (although that can also be true when they're...

Tunnels Beaches Wedding Photographer
Tunnels Beaches Wedding Photographer A bit of Tunnels Beaches wedding photography for you today. London to Devon is a bit of a mission but I'm so glad I did this one. I sensed ahead of time that I would be, (I'd seen photos online when Hannah had contacted me but...

Documentary Wedding Photographer | James & Lou
Documentary Wedding Photographer Lately, the keen-eyed or possibly just the jobless followers of this blog may have started to notice that, for whatever reason, I am pretty much required to use this blog's own personal keyword phrase in the opening sentence -- that...

Harpers Bazaar Wedding Photography
Ladies and Gentlemen, I would just like to draw your attention to this Harpers Bazaar wedding photography four-page spread nestled snugly in the sophisticated pages of the new (Arabian) edition. I would also like to draw your attention to the text, in which I'm...

Shoreditch House Wedding Photographer
Shoreditch House Wedding Photographer My favourite kind of wedding is an urban London one and what better than a Shoreditch House wedding? There’s just something about the buzz of East London that compliments the glamour of a wedding day almost as it stands in...
