Jess and Phil hitched Burgh House, London


Wow, doesn't the summer feel like a LONG time ago now??!! I started to look through Jess and Phils beautiful August wedding a few days ago and instantly had a smile on my face. It is no secret that the weather for much of the summer months last year was pants. Massive, huge, pants. I seemed to be dancing a thin line in between severe weather warning after severe weather warning. It seemed everytime the forecast for the weekend rolled around it was predicting a wet, grey weekend.

NOT FOR JESS AND PHILL!! Hell no, their wonderment wedding weekend rolled around and it was hot and sunny. When I say hot, I actually mean scorching!!! A blisteringly beautiful blue sky of a day.

I did look like a shiney purple thing by the end of the days shooting but the suffering for my job was well worth it. Jess and Phil had been FANTASTIC fun meeting up and nattering before their big day. I knew this was going to be a kick ass wedding and it was all of that and more.

Plus, how many weddings have such a dude of a cat with a bow tie??! Called Thor. Yes, he is probably the coolest little dude I am going to meet (even if he was terrified of me when I tried to stroke him eek!)

As Thor couldn't make it to the wedding in person so Jess and phil had a card board cut out of him that was very popular in the photobooth later that night (see pictures at the very bottom of the post).

Jess and Phils wedding was so much fun, everyone was having the best time, dancing, drinking, laughing and good times. Just what a wedding should be about, you rock guys!! Thanks for having us along for the day,

Laura & Chris get hitched at the Coalbrookdale Covered Bays (wedding)

I had been looking forward to photographing Laura and Chris' wedding for quite a while. Not only were they such a fab couple, but everytime I nattered to Laura about her plans I got more and more excited. I am SUCH a big kid when it comes to talking about plans and ideas and I will never, ever, everrrrr get bored of hearing the details, stories, gossip and just about everything in between when it comes to talking to my fab couples.

Laura is a cool chick you see, and I knew I was going to love everything about her day. She gathered friends and family from all over the world (her sister flew in from Australia) to celebrate and enjoy one hell of a wedding. 

Laura and Chris have to be the couple whose wedding I have had the shortest distance to travel to as well! The got married at the Coalbrookdale Museum literally just across the road from my house. 

Coalbrookdale is a gorgeous little place (HELL YES I am biased as I live here now : ) It is the birthplace of industry and through its hard working and scarred past, the valley has healed and is green again but littered with amazing old industrial relics from the past. 

So, here are just a few of my favourite pictures from the day. I can't even begin to tell you what a good time we had shooting Laura and Chris. They were the most fun to hang out with, and I laughed so hard during the day my ribs did actually hurt when late into the night we pottered back across the road home (VERY kindly furnished with cupcakes from Queenies pushed into our hands from Laura.) 






























Laura and Chris's wedding also featured on the continually-blow-your-socks-off-inspirational-wedding blog wonderment that is RocknRoll Bride.
