Lucy Trashing the Dress in Devon

Some of you may recognise Lucy as I photographed Lucy & Nick’s wedding earlier this year at the stunning Stoodleigh Court. Afterwards she very kindly agreed to help me with a wedding fair at Westpoint during which I managed to convince her that Trashing her Dress was the right thing to do… actually she didn’t need much convincing at all:)Well this morning the wait was over, Lucy braved the cold December temperature as we ventured out in and around Exmouth. I love doing these shoots, they’re soo much fun. As always here’s a sneak preview of what’s to come:)

Carrie & Adam Trash the Dress in Cornwall!

Carrie & Adam are down in Cornwall on their honeymoon after getting married in Bristol last week. Sadly i didn’t photograph their wedding but they did book me to do a trash the dress session. Now you know how much i love these, they’re always such fun however i was a little concerned when i woke up to strong winds and heavy rain. Thankfully the rain cleared (a little) for us. This was never going to stop Carrie though, she was amazing and determined to get into the sea, even in Mid december and having got my feet wet i can vouch for how cold it was! Adam was the wimp and got out as quick as he got in…. Sorry Adam, Carrie made me say it:)… Anyway, he’s a sneak preview of the day…..

Amy & Andrew’s wedding at the Bedford Hotel in Tavistock

Today I was at the Bedford Hotel in Tavistock photographing Amy & Andrew’s wedding. It was a lovely and intimate affair with a few of their closest friends and family. With Amy absolutely hating having her photo taken I was even more keen to get some really lovely ones of her and her family and these will become even more important as the years ahead of us pass.
I have no idea how, but the weather changed the minute the ceremony started, we even had some rays of sunshine, a stark contrast to the severe weather warning and the storms that battered us throughout last night. The theme was Black & white which carried through from the cake that Amy herself made all the way through to Amy’s stunning dress. Anyway, enough of my waffle, here’s a few teaser photos:)….

Almost Alone with David Williams

I have just returned after three intense days of instruction and inspiration with David Williams. To spend three days with one of the Top Wedding Photographers in the World as he teaches you to photograph from your heart is simply priceless. He has completely changed the way i not only view my photography but also my family, and preserving memories for generations. A big thanks also needs to go out to Caroline Pilling who hosted the seminar at her studio in Somerset. An amazing 3 days that have changed my life…..

Here is a photo of David taken during the course…
