Ianthe and Patrick cutting their wedding cake

Ianthe &
Patrick.

Ianthe and Patrick got married at Hackney Town Hall on 20 February 2025, with lunch at Sesta on Wilton Way, by London Fields.

Sesta somehow managed to be incredibly small and difficult to navigate without ever feeling cramped. There’s a difference. Particularly when you’re carrying a camera.

There was also a very convivial man with an attaché case of Sobranies, which I’d been sure were either extinct or contraband or both. Apparently I was wrong. Although, if we’re being pedantic, the attaché case was really more the pocket of a very well-tailored suit jacket.

I was very happy with these photographs.

Yes, I am slightly behind on posting them. In my defence, I have been bringing up a small child in that time, and everything people say about those things is true.
