Here are a few highlights of the day.

Liz and Matt's Engagement Shoot at Ashdown Park Hotel

Tuesday evening saw me drive to the stunning Ashdown Park Hotel to photograph an engagement portrait season and have a general catch up with Liz and Matt.

i am excited to be photographing their wedding in September and this was the perfect opportunity to "break the ice" and produce some special images of them in the grounds of their reception venue.

Here are a few shots all with a new look for me created in post production. All were taken on my Nikons using a combinations of my 17-55 2.8, 85 1.4 and 10.5 2.8 lenses.

Jackie and Alan's Wedding at Ashdown Park Hotel

It took a lot of trust and organising but Jackie and Alan were married at the beautiful Ashdown Park Hotel, one of my favourite venues, despite being based in Dubai.

Once again, we were blessed with stunning sunshine and true summer temperatures and all in all it was a superb wedding to photograph.

It was great to meet their guests, who had flown in from all round the world to celebrate their special day.

Jackie and Alan were a genuine pleasure to work with and here are a few favourite images of the day.


















For the photographers reading this, all the images were captured on my Nikons using my 17-55 2.8 and 85 1.4 lenses by available light. Post production in Bridge and my personal actions in Photoshop.

Kate and Rudolf's Wedding at Port Lympne, Kent

Last Monday, i was privileged to photograph and be apart of Kate and Rudolf's intimate wedding at Port Lympne Mansion House.

This was the second time i have covered a wedding at the venue, a stunning house set on the site of the world famous Port Lympne Zoo, established by John Aspinall.

With the bride and groom we had a total of 5 people at the wedding; the only guests were Kate and Rudolf's parents. This made for a very relaxed and laid back day, with plenty of time to capture some stunning images of the couple, followed by a great safari in a landrover.

It was lovely to meet Rebecca Schofield and Rachel who looked after Kate in the hair and make-up departments.

I would like to finish by saying how lovely it was to work with Hayley Ramsden
and the team at Port Lympne; they made it so easy for us all the enjoy the wedding.

Here are a few images from the day all taken on my trusty Nikons.



Kate looking stunning and ready to go.

Claire and Mike's Wedding at Wadhurst Castle

I thought i would share with you a few images from the beautiful wedding of Claire and Michael.

The ceremony was held at the lovely church of St Paul, Rusthall near Tunbridge Wells and the reception at one of my favourite venues, Wadhurst Castle.

A relaxed atmosphere was very much the order of the day and i have to say that i have rarely met a couple who laughed so much!

A suprise for the guests was a "performance" by the amazing Soprano Bella

For any photographers, all the images were taken on my Nikon SLRs by natural light using my 17-55 2.8 and 85 1.4 lenses.

The stunning bride, at home, just before i left for church. Claire was lit by a small circular window high up to the right of the frame.









An idyllic setting for a summer wedding.





It was laughter all the way!
