I am super proud to announce that 2 of my portraits were awarded Honorable Mentions in the 2016 International Photographer of the Year Competition…. and I only just noticed! I love to enter competitions with my work, but they tend to be announced at my busiest time of year. It was a lovely surprise to log into my account and find a certificate waiting for me! Thanks so much to the IPA for including me in their prestigious awards, its absolutely amazing to be awarded this recognition of my efforts (even if it was 2 years ago :)

The latest issue of Your Sussex Wedding is out now and features my shot of the beautiful Layla Harris on the front cover! This is the first ever black and white image to feature on the front cover of a n issue from the County wedding’s family of publications and the whole team involved to create this shot are extremely proud. Hair and make up were crested by the incredibly talented Cara Mcdaniel, with floral designs lovingly created for us by the amazing Lydie Dalton. Layla wears a Maggie Sottero dress, supplied by the wonderful Jana Svalbe at Mode Bridal. Our stunning location is the newest Wedding venue from the Cowdray Estate- Capron House! We used the gorgeous main staircase in the entry hall to create this shot. Capron House was originally a Grammar School where the now super famous pupil H.G Wells was once in attendance.

I am so lucky to be spending time working with some fantastic little people in Nurseries for the next couple of months! …got myself some yummy smelly stickers to hand out, a new (seriously bright) camera skin and some new toys, squeakers, rattles and dinosaurs to grab attention!

I will stop at nothing to get a great shot!! :)

Here is a little sneak peek at our beautiful beach shoot for the amazing British Wedding dress designer Sassi Holford! We had a beautiful day at West Wittering beach, the sun shone and the wind….did it blow! But, I am so excited to share some our beautiful images taken from what we got up to.

Lydie dalton was our amazing floral designer on the day and she created some totally stunning flora designs for the shoot. We had great fun posing our beautiful model Layla all over the beautiful sand dunes that the beach has to offer, and our gorgeous palette of make up and boho hair was created by the super talented Cara Mcdaniel .

More of the results of our shoot coming soon.. watch this space !

I am so excited to be location hunting for several new photography collaborations coming up in the next few months. This is just one stunning option currently on the table, any ideas where it is?

Our Fairytale photo shoot from the stunning Stanhill Court Hotel is now published and available to view via Absolute Magazine (Magazine and online) 

Inspired by the beautiful and grey green hues of the British winter countryside and all the

enigmatic ‘Grimm’s Fairytales’ we ever read in our childhoods, we set out to create a visual feast

for the eye with our latest styled photo shoot. Our venue is the wonderful Stanhill Court Hotel,

located just outside of Horley in Surrey . A wonderful and historic setting, the hotel itself is

nestled in 35 acres of ancient woodland and Sussex countryside, playing host to grazing sheep

and wild roaming deer. The building has a long history ,being built in 1881 when it was originally

used as a family residence and now a grand and gorgeous Hotel and Wedding venue.

It was the perfect setting for our Winter Fairytale styled inspiration, the stunning original interiors

with decadent Oak panelling gave our just the right amount of drama and historical kudos to our

photo shoot . We all particularly loved the ‘Bavarian’ feel to the main guest dining room where

our Top table set up was located and we couldn’t help but to dress our table in its influence!.

Our beautiful model Layla was completely in character as our White Queen/Sleeping beauty in

the Antonia Suite where we photographed using the huge window seat area overlooking winter

blooming red roses and part of the extensive gardens as our backdrop - we loved styling her in

cool toned editorial make up and coupling this with the beautiful dresses of Fara Sposa from

Mode Bridal of Hove. The amazing lulalipin.com created some bespoke head dresses specifically

for us and was inspired by frost bitten twigs and woodland nymphs . All of our talented, creative

suppliers came together to entice the future ‘Winter Bride’ into creating a beautiful opulent,

magical Winter Fairy tale Wedding of their very own.
