Liberty & lanterns at Ston Easton Park

It was wonderful to share Katie & Ben’s gorgeous wedding day at Ston Easton Park a few weeks ago. Katie’s stunning Liberty gown set the tone for their day which was both elegant and fun. We had a ball capturing the bridal party ‘running races’ after dinner, with the finale of the couple & all their guests releasing lanterns in front of the house, a perfect closing picture to a fantastic shoot.

Chickens & Morris men at this Mill

Colourful would be an understatement in describing Emma & Roger’s beautiful Easter wedding day at Priston Mill a few weeks ago. Having grown up at the Mill & farm, Emma is a big lover of animals, so we made it our mission to photograph anything and everything that moved that day – ducks, chickens, & Morris Men as well as the lovely couple and guests! This was a truly stunning day full of fun and energy – thanks for asking us to capture it for you Emma and Roger, we’re looking forward to showing you all the pictures soon!

Crazy Boxes on the beach!

Back in the cold depths of February we decided it was time to brush all the winter cobwebs away, get down to the beach, run around and be silly…. Enter the Box family, who wanted a family shoot on the beach. The temperature was a bit brisk, so we decided at the outset that ‘action’ was the key to making this shoot work. Thankfully the Boxes were very willing models!

Watching two beautiful horses gallop along the sea shore as we waited for our models to arrive made a perfect few opening shots to a wonderful and very fun shoot. Our thanks to the amazing Box family for all their hard work and humour, Cindy & Simon, Corey & Carter, and Wendy & Derek!

Balloons and kissing on the pier

It was wonderful to see Ben and Katie for their engagement shoot down in Clevedon a short while ago, here are a few of the resulting images. Katie and Ben are wonderful and great fun to photograph, and the balloons were a lucky find, left abandoned on the pier but somehow so fitting for the shoot!

Baby Benjamin arrives!

Little Benjamin gave everyone a surprise by appearing a little earlier than planned – on Christmas day!  What a gorgeous yuletide gift for mum and dad – Holly and Tom.

I felt very lucky a few weeks ago to have the chance to photograph the new arrival, just ten days old, along with mum and dad, and his beautiful big sister Poppy, who is five. Benjamin was very sleepy, just beautiful to photograph, and fab at modelling some our funky new range of handmade newborn hats! Here are just a few of the pictures from the shoot.
