Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… It remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.

Passing through Patterdale Village – Lake District Road Trip!

A tiny little village, big delight!
During my trip to the Lake District earlier this year I discovered the village of Patterdale. This was to my delight because my four legged pride and joy, Oscar, is a Patterdale Terrier mixed with Border Collie. Looking around at the terrain I could see how he is truly built for life there. Unfortunately he wasn’t with me to give the hills and wild grass a test-drive, he can jump ridiculously high thus runs…

Why do a Couples Shoot?

If you hate the camera there’s all the more reason to a couples shoot!
Even rockstars have said that although famous and have had bazillions of photos taken on them, they still tense up in front of the camera. As a photographer, I too tense up, and I have this strange sensation that my nostrils are flaring. So why on earth have a couples shoot in the light of your wedding?

1. Not just for those getting married!
Couples shoots are often…

A wedding photographer’s guide to visiting Tetbury

Just another reason why I love being a Cotswolds wedding photographer!
One of the best perks about being a wedding photographer is to see parts of the world you might never have travelled to. I adore getting asked to quaint places such as the Cotswolds to get a bit of country air. I always tend to take a little tour the morning after a wedding to indulge in a local breakfast, to get some snaps and / or pop in…

Aira Force aka Waterfalls and Rainbows!!

A London Photographer in Aira Force
The photos will really do the talking here, but this was my first ever trip to Aira Force. A place filled with beautiful waterfalls, rainbows, babbling brooks, mossy rocks and apparently rare red squirrels! I was gutted not to have spotted any of the copper coated cuties, but that is the only ‘fomo’ I experienced.
An ever changing landscape
Seasonally speaking, I enjoyed the winter-sun vibes, but I would love to return in the summer to…

Pantone Colour of the Year 2018: Ultra Violet

Pantone declared their colour of the year, Ultra Violet. At first I thought, well that’s good news for Willy Wonka but frankly, I’m struggling to see how that trend will benefit weddings. However!! I went to one of my favourite places for inspiration, Pinterest! I’ve found some glorious ideas, and it turns out it isn’t such a barking mad idea after all. Personally, I would favour an overall neutral palette with dashes of lavender paired with deep botanical greens….

Snowy Walk With My Dog Oscar

An unusually cold day in North London, -4’c (feeling like -8’c), and oh boy did it take some welly to get my chunky camera out with two big old lenses, and a hyperactive patterdale / collie called Oscar cross at my side. It was my first experience taking pictures in heavy snow, and thank Lord I had waterproof protection for the camera because snow went everywhere. Including, my poor doggies beard. The snow wouldn’t melt, it merely grew into…

Sula & Oliver

I had the luxury of shooting in Kew Gardens on a sunny summers day. Sula is a florist and fiancé Oliver is in marketing. They both are passionate about flowers and trees so it was a natural choice to select Kew as a location.

One of the highlights which I remember is of the couple showing me to a tree of memory and sentiment to them, a mulberry tree! I may or may not have tried a mulberry for the…
