Ever wanted to dress a guy up in a tux and wellies and get him to paddle in a ford? I did. And my lovely little dream came true with Ali & Jez’s engagement shoot recently! You may have seen a sneak peak from this shoot a little while ago, but for your delectation, here’s [...]

Even the spring blossom hadn’t shown any sign of peeping through. But did it matter? Not a jot! I’m delighted to bring you some of the highlights of [...]
Continue Reading →Oh, the British weather! Sometimes it is rather trying… like the day Bukky & Lee travelled all the way from London to Somerset for their couples engagement photoshoot, only for it to tiddle down all day. Luckily, they were both absolute stars and just went with the flow…. and who needs the sun when love [...]
Continue Reading →Good morning all! I’m just bringing you a sneaky peek today of a recent couple’s engagement shoot I photographed in my home village of Pilton in Somerset. Pilton is glorious in full bloom, but sadly we aren’t quite there yet. Let’s face it, it’s not summer yet (or even spring), so we mixed up formalwear with [...]

To kick the week off, I thought I’d bring you a brand spanking new sneak peek from a wedding I photographed at the sumptuous Orchardleigh House, near Frome, Somerset, yesterday.

This was yet another visit for me as wedding photographer at Brympton House. Louise carried out her bridal preparations at home in Crewkerne, [...]
Continue Reading →OK guys – this is a unique opportunity for three couples to get a ‘Love the Dress’ shoot (also known as a post-wedding shoot), or a pre-wedding engagement shoot, absolutely free! I’m giving away three free sessions, each worth £150, and they’re available on a first come, first served basis. It doesn’t matter if you [...]
Continue Reading →Another visit as wedding photographer at Ston Easton Park, near Bath! I love this place. The ambience, the staff, the setting, it’s all fabulous. There’s something about Ston Easton that really speaks to me. I think it’s because, for all its stunning elegance, it doesn’t overwhelm you, like some wedding venues can; you feel at [...]
Continue Reading →Wedding photography, and in particular, the manner in which is is recorded and presented, has moved on enormously in the last twenty years. In 2013, it’s almost unheard of not to have an online wedding gallery of your images, and it’s now standard practice for most photographers to offer packages which provide the digital high [...]

It really was a perfect day and all went so smoothly despite the showers! I am really thrilled with the photographs and Belinda's pleasant, calm and friendly manner helped calm my nerves in the morning whilst getting ready, the group shots and couple shots around Wells were orchestrated quickly and effortlessly meaning that we could get on with having fun with our guests, and the reportage shots that Belinda took will remind us of the day, the atmosphere and our best friends and family for years to come.
