Leatherhead Registry Office Wedding

Last weekend (on the hottest day of the year! 32C!) I travelled out to Surrey up to Leatherhead Registry Office to shoot a wedding.

Leatherhead Registry office has a love seat in the conservatory which makes for some great photographs!

After exchanging vows and signing the register, it was time for some quick wedding photographs before the bride and groom went off to enjoy the sunshine.

Hitched raffle engagement prize

If you are getting married, a great forum to hang out while planning your wedding is the Hitched forum. Not only is it a friendly place to get answers to your wedding planning questions, it is also the home to the Hitched raffle. This happens every year in April and always supports a great charity. This year over £500 was raised for Macmillan Cancer Support and Alzheimer's Society. HIBs (Hitchers in Business) offer wedding related prizes. 


Recently I managed to meet up with the winners of my Hitched prize - an engagement shoot with personality! The location we choose was the gritty underpass that is the South Bank - where apparently it is legal to graffiti.

The bride and groom were fantastic to shoot and absolutely loved their prize!





We had a fab fab photo shoot with Louisa (Urban Bridesmaid) a couple of weeks ago, and the pictures arrived in the post today (very snazzy CD case!) I LOVE them. Thanks Louisa - seeing these has put me on such a high all day long!

Rock n Roll Bride Features The Photography Parlour G2G & Me!

wedding photographer london,london wedding photography

As you may remember I recently attended a G2G in Bristol organised by Rosie Parsons of The Photography Parlour.

A big Photography Parlour Flickr group has been set up to view the fantastic images - which you can find here.

Kat, who writes the Rock n Roll Bride blog, is the doyenne of all wedding bloggers, and is at the bleeding edge of all that is happening in the wedding world, especially in the UK.

Today there is a post on Rock n Roll Bride about the G2G and also a selection of my images from the day - woo hoo! I am so excited!

Photobook

England may have been knocked out of the World Cup, but go Ghana!

Here are some photos of a photobook from the Alice in Wonderland birthday party. It is always good to hear that people enjoy the photographs with personality as much as I enjoy making the photos and the photobooks!

'The book is excellent. Keep up the good work!'
