Gin and Tonic always tastes better in the sun and even better with ice cream especially when holidaying in Rome. Relaxing with my drink at a cafe in the Piazza del Popolo a wedding party passed by, not to miss this photo opportunity I captured some images of the happy group.
Summer seems so distant now, oh well It means I can now look forward to my next Italian excursion in Venice this spring.

Lindsey + Ben's wedding photographs, Sydenham, Oxfordshire

Congratulations to Lindsey and Ben who were married at St Mary’s church in Sydenham, South Oxfordshire. Early rain didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits and eventually they were rewarded with a glorious summer evening.

It was an absolute pleasure photographing Lindsey and Ben, their youthful happiness was infectious and reflected by their guests throughout the day.

A special mention for the best man’s tribute music video I don’t think I will ever be able to listen to a certain Michael Jackson song without laughing. Lucky Lindsey and Ben are off to Bali for their Honeymoon, enjoy your holiday guys!

Richard and Charlotte Wedding photographs, Rotherfield Peppard, Oxfordshire

Charlotte and Richard were married at All Saints church in Rotherfield Peppard near Henley on Thames and I was there to photograph their special day. After the ceremony the couple travelled in style to their reception at Antony Worrall Thompson’s Greyhound pub in a vintage Daimler.

The woods and meadows surrounding Henley on Thames are some of the most beautiful places in England and I consider myself extremely lucky to live here..

With the woods full of sweet smelling bluebells and the sun shining through the lime green canopy of beech trees, I arranged to meet Richard and Charlotte in woodland close to Rotherfield peppard for their engagement shoot.

The couple bought their beautiful daughter Mary with them so we took the opportunity to take some family portraits as well.

I am delighted with the results and I am looking forward to photographing their wedding later this month.

An engagement photo shoot is an excellent way for the photographer to build a rapport with the bride and groom. I spent a couple of fun hours photographing Ben and Lindsey in the picturesque villages of Sydenham and Aston Rowant in South Oxfordshire. The fabulous spring weather definitely had Ben and Lindsey high spirits, as you can see!

I am very much looking forward to capturing their big day in August.

Recently I attended the National Triathlon sprint championships in Olney near Milton Keynes as one of the official photographers.With approximatley 750 competitiors, I ended up taking 1600 photographs in several hours.

The club often organises shows for friends and family. I was invited by the club to photograph the latest show.

Watlington, Oxfordshire was the tranquil setting chosen  for the personal, heartfelt promises that Jenny and Richard made to each other in the presence of  friends.

Jenny and Richard exchanged their traditional wedding vows during a small and intimate ceremony at St Mary’s, the beautiful church in the village of Turville, Buckinghamshire. (you can click on a photo to make it bigger)
