Tamsin and James – Wedding photographer in Cheshire

Posted on byJohn

What could be nicer than a wedding on a sunny day? – How about a wedding on a sunny day a few miles from where I grew up… and on a bank holiday weekend??. Sounds perfect.

The day started off in the opulent surroundings of the Grosvenor hotel in Chester, where Tamsin had stayed the night before. From here it was a quick drive through the lush Cheshire countryside to a beautiful sandstone church in Tattenhall for a ceremony with a vicar whose approach was far from traditional!

The reception was held at Soughton Hall, a luxury wedding venue just outside Chester which is set in rolling countryside and accessed down an elegant tree lined driveway. A live band entertained the guests in the evening and saw some unforgettable moves on the dance floor.

Just a few of the images are displayed below.

Winter sun, Indian Ocean style – Photography in the Maldives.

Posted on byJohn

Hands up who would like to be somewhere warm and sunny right now….. Well, I’d like to be a wedding photographer in the Maldives…..it’s my calling! I thought you might like to see what we’ve been up to in the dark, cold days of January. Going away for a bit of sunshine at this time of year is definitely recommended.

We had the good fortune to spend 12 nights in a beautiful villa perched over the crystal clear blue waters of the Indian Ocean. Reef sharks and Manta rays swimming under the villa when we woke up each morning became the norm. Simply amazing.

A huge thank you to the staff at Zitahli for making our stay so memorable and if ever you need a Maldives wedding photographer, please feel free to drop me a line :-)

A few images from our stay which should brighten up any grey winter day. I hope that you enjoy them.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow… Portrait photography in Central London.

Posted on byJohn

Who can remember what happened on the Saturday before Christmas last year? No??? Well allow me to refresh your memory. These photographs were taken on that morning, and the snow fell and fell. The photoshoot was cut short and an epic journey home commenced as London ground to a standstill.

Gemma Barrett was kind enough to brave the elements on the day (Gemma is an actress – you can find out about her by following the link to her website). How she managed not to look frozen is beyond me! I hope you enjoy the pictures, they came to mind this morning as the snow is falling again!!!

Thanks for reading and have a very Happy Christmas

Phoebe and Lucy – Portrait photographer in Buckinghamshire.

Posted on byJohn

Lucy is my sister in law, so when she had a new arrival in the family I was only too pleased to offer my service as uncle and photographer in one. These pictures were taken in our spare room on a white duvet, hopefully proving that you don’t need an expensive studio or lots of lights to produce photos that people love.

Thanks for all the lovely feedback so far. It has been much appreciated :-)

If anyone would like a similar shoot please feel free to contact me via my facebook page and we can arrange something from there.

Iveta – Portrait photgraphy in Central London

Posted on byJohn

When Iveta approached me to update her portfolio, I was flattered and only too happy to help out. It’s always nice to hear that someone has seen your work and liked it, even better to be told in person :-)

Iveta works in the City so we decided a cityscape might be a perfect backdrop for this set of images. The brief was for a contemporary set of portraits with a ‘fashion’ edge to them.

I’ve posted just a few from the shoot, I hope you like them too.

Reece and Finley – Childrens photographer in Buckinghamshire

Posted on byJohn

In addition to a newborn baby, Lucy is also the proud Mum to two young boys who love nothing more than being outside and doing what children do – playing!

A few weeks ago I took the opportunity to photography Reece and Finley in the the last few days of good weather. The images of them in the garden are blogged below. Finley took on the mantle of Derek Zoolander for the day, he didn’t get my ‘Blue steel’ references, but to be fair I wouldn’t have watched Zoolander at his age either!!

I’ve had some lovely feedback from this set of pictures before I’ve even blogged them, so I hope you also enjoy them…..

Aspiring actress Hannah – Portrait photographer in High Wycombe

Posted on byJohn

Hannah is a performing arts student and aims to be a well known face in the world of acting and TV in time (remember you saw her here 1st). When she asked me to help update her portfolio, I was delighted to help out.

We managed to dodge the rain successfully one Saturday morning in High Wycombe, which produced some treats for locations, a few of which are shown below. I really enjoyed working with Hannah and she was so easy to get along with and didn’t mind wandering through a bit of mud to get a shot.

I’ve posted a small sample of the images we shot. Please feel free to contact me if you would like a similar shoot.

Alice and Neil – Wedding photographer Denham Abbotts

Posted on byJohn

You may remember this happy couple from their engagement shoot earlier in the year at Tower Bridge. For the big day we moved to rural Suffolk for a lovely relaxed outdoor wedding at a barn in Denham, on which they had weaved their magic. The transformation from barn to wedding venue was nothing short of amazing, particularly as it all happened between Friday afternoon and Saturday morning.

Neil works for an events company called Admirable Crichton and if this is an example of their work I would highly recommend them. Lots of happy faces in this set (even a spot of rain couldn’t top them), hope the pictures make you smile too.

Congratulations Mr and Mrs Gregory……

Katy and Fred – Wedding photographer Dorset

Posted on byJohn

Question – What does a windsurf, Jimmy Choo wellingtons and sea fret have in common? Answer – They were all present at the wedding of Katy and Fred which happened in the picturesque setting of Kingston, a couple of miles from Corfe Castle in Dorset.

David McNeil called on my services for the day and I was delighted to help out. Despite living close to London I was a relative local compared to some of the guests who had flown in from Hawaii and other exciting locations.

The day passed by in a flash with lots of laughter, I hope the pictures below convey that feeling.
