Islington Town Hall Wedding

Every London wedding photographer should have Islington Town Hall in their portfolio as it is one of the iconic London wedding venues. Situated on Upper St in the heart of trendy Islington, this is one of the coolest venues going frequented by the chic & famous as well as everyday Islington folk.
So while I’m not a celebrity wedding photographer, treading in the footsteps of Paul & Linda McCartney today, saw Nicola & Dave in a beautiful ceremony in this amazing March sunshine. A lovely couple, Nicola looked stunning in her dress, very stylish and a beautiful smile, she was a photographers dream.
So Islington Town Hall? No parking, multiple weddings (every 20 min!), reception elsewhere (still with no parking), Middle of a High St, sounds like a photographers nightmare? Well for me, I absolutely loved it and can’t wait for the next one!



Croydon Wedding

Today saw the wedding of Tatum and Gareth. Being the photographer at their Oaks Farm wedding was great fun and Tatum & Gareth were a real joy to work with. For a March wedding, the weather in Croydon was fantastic for photography and made a real difference to the couples day. It enabled us to do the majority of the wedding photography outdoors, as Surrey was basking in sunshine.

SWPP Convention – Best London Wedding Photographers?

Not just the best wedding photographers in London, but from Kent, Essex, Surrey, Sussex, Middlesex, in fact, from all over the UK. Yes it’s that time of year again when the great and the good meet up in London’s Hammersmith for the Society of Wedding Photography Professionals, or SWPP Convention as it’s known. The likes of Julia Boggio, Nick Ghionis, Damian Lovegrove, Gordon McGowan, to name but a few, will all be lecturing there. As a Greenwich wedding photographer, Hammersmith is not to bad a journey for me, and so I along with many others will be making the annual trek next week. If you’re a wedding photographer London based, or any of the home counties, it’s well worth a visit. The journey for me, from Lewisham is pretty straight forward. I guess all the local wedding photographers will be there from Lee, Depford, Eltham, Sidcup, Dulwich, Brockwell, Bromley, Orpington.

Ian and Nancy

Not just Ian and Nancy, but the whole family inc brothers, sisters, nieces, grandparents et al. This shot caught my eye though, I love the bond there between father and daughter

Family Portrait and Linkedin Profiles

As well as shooting a lovely set of family portraits for Hooman the dentist, I had to do some profile shots for Charlie and his colleague for Linkedin. It amazes me how many people are happy to promote themselves on Linkedin, Facebook etc, and then have dodgy profile pictures!

Well done Charlie for acknowledging this and having decent photos taken for you and Julie :-)



Not that it was raining in the studio, but Tiffany still felt the need for wet weather gear!

If anybody is wondering of what to buy me for Christmas…..
