TOM⚡NATALIE

EAST MERSEA WEDDING BANGER WITH NAT & THE T MAN! I knew from the first few minutes of chatting to Natalie & Tom, when we just laughed and instantly connected, that this was going to be so much fun to capture as we were a perfect mix of mischief, romance, chill and neurospicy, and honestly it was a BLAST 🙂

This was my first time at East Mersea Hall, and WHAT a venue it is, the team were spot on and they helped the day run brilliantly, meaning T&N could really enjoy it and I think that is so obvious in the joy you see in these images we made! There was so much going on all over the place it was a job capturing it all, but the banter was top quality, all of T&N's guests and family were lovely to me, and the day flew by in a haze of laughter, love and happiness 🙂

Here are a few personal highlights from a truly wonderful day down in Essex on the stunning Mersea Island with the adorable Tom & Natalie 📸

RACHEL⚡MATT

BAGFEST 2026 - THE ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE WEDDING FESTIVAL! It finally happened, after papping Rachel stuffing her face at mutiple weddings over the years, I had the call that she herself was getting hitched, and it was about time I took some more flattering photographs of her haha! Bagfest was born, a wedding festival to celebrate everything that Matt & Rach hold close to them, and it had to happen at the very site where Mr Bagnall proposed, the stunning Dragons Gate farm & barn venue in the English/Welsh border ❤️

This was a wedding of EPIC proportions, incredible people, music at the heart of it, colour and vibrancy in everything, and enough love and mischief to turn those rain filled skies into beautiful warm sunshine against all the odds! Truth be told, it was no less than Rach & Matt deserved after pulling this massive celebration off to perfection, and honestly, being trusted with capturing it felt genuinely so special ❤️

Here are a few personal highlights (my word it was hard to choose!) from the once in a lifetime BAGFEST, here's to you Matt & Rach, what a day you had! Enjoy 🙂

BEN⚡NICOLA

BROADWAY MEETS TRENT BRIDGE AT THIS BARNS AT REDCOATS WEDDING SPECTACULAR WITH NICOLA & BEN! Holy moly, what a wedding, theatre obsessed Nicola and cricket obsessed Ben threw a massive party at the Barns At Redcoats at it was a DOOZY from start to finish!

I have never had so much laughter and banter on a morning, Nicola nearly died with happiness at Ben getting her a Monica from Friends wedding Funko Pop, and Ben doing a reveal to his parents was something really unusual and beautiful (his Mum was so emotional!)! Then we had a FIRST TOUCH between N&B, that was LUSH, before a truly memorable ceremony full of emotion, laughter and a brilliant live performance from their friends singing a song! This was followed by an EPIC confetti run, some hilarious canape stalking, before N&B made a grand entrance for the speeches where they actually wrote and sang a song LIVE all about their relationship dynamic that resulted in a standing ovation! YES!!

The rest of the day flew by in a blur TBH, the guests were all on top form, Nicola & Ben could hardly keep their mouths closed as they were laughing so much, it was bloody brilliant! Here are a few personal highlights from a total BANGER OF A WEDDING, massive congrats guys, you are PERFECT FOR EACH OTHER 🙂

JACK⚡DANIELLE

WOODLAND WEDDING DREAMS COME TRUE FOR D&J AT CAPTAINS WOOD BARN! I had a blast at the incredible DIY wedding of Danielle & Jack at the stunning Captains Wood Barns, from the morning arrival of the Pi**ed & Broke Scooter Club (the Groom and Bestman lol) and a Dad & Daughter pre-ceremony pint, this entire wedding started ace and just continued all day long 🙂

A tractor ride through the forest brought Danielle & Ted to the amazing woodland area where Jack and all the guests were waiting for a beautiful celebrant lead ceremony that was full of funny stories, tears, laughter and of course love in abundance! You really can't beat a celebrant lead ceremony in my opinion and the sooner they can do the legal side of it fully the better 🙂

The rest of the day was super relaxed, with fish & chips and ice cream served for dinner, some hilarious speeches, and then a live band to really get the party started! Danielle & Jack were a joy of a couple, and I had so much fun with their wedding party and family, and I think you can see that in these personal highlights from a true banger of a wedding :)

GET THAT GUINNESS DOWN YOU DANIELLE 🙂

LARA⚡HENRY

NEW ZEALAND TO HITCHIN FOR A SUPERFINE WEDDING! I don't know where to start with this one, Lara dropped me a message on Friday telling me she had been let down by her photographer and could I capture her wedding to Henry in TWO days time, and although I was meant to be busy I soon changed my mind (and my plans!) as I loved chatting to both Lara & Henry, so I said YES to the proposal haha 🙂

WHAT A DAY! These guys, and all their family and friends, were UNREAL fun and made me feel welcome from the get go! Lara & Henry both live and met in New Zealand, but both have links to England via family, so it made sense to pick the beautiful tropics of (check notes...Hertfordshire!) to do the mighty deed! They choose the gorgeous St Helens Church for the stunning ceremony (including a traditional Maori blessing), followed by an incredible party at the ever wonderful Barns At Redcoats, and it was such a genuine privilege to be part of it and witness how obviously right for each other Lara & Henry are!

HOW LUCK AM I TO HAVE GOT THIS GIG! I am still buzzing, both Henry and Lara had me in fits of laughter for entirely different reasons, and I think under the circumstances they smashed it out of the park. I am honestly so fortunate that I get to do this as a job and I get the opportunity to meet such lovely humans as Henry and Lara, thank you for trusting me with you day, here are some personal highlights 🙂

Ngā mihi ki a kōrua!

ALEX⚡LOU

BIG COUNTRY VIBES AT THE ALEX & LOU WEDDING RODEO! There are weddings and then there are weddings...Lou & Alex had one of the most insanely fun wedding days I have ever been part of and it was a honky-tonk hoedown of EPIC proportions!

This was a 3 part day, with a beautifully emotional first look between Alex & Lou, before a legal ceremony in front of close family. We then went for a lovely walk in Ampthill to visit Lou & Alexs favourite pub The Albion for a gorgeous small private reception, a game of cards, and some fun behind the beer pumps. Then they jumped into a pink Cadillac for a journey to the amazing Rushden Transport Shed for a the party to really begin...

Friends and family were gathered waiting for them to have a stunning second celebrant lead wedding (Lous amazing friend lead this) inside the amazing shed, full of laughter, joy and a brilliant reading by Poppy their daughter. The rest of the day was filled with games, amazing food, some beautiful speeches, a fantastic wander around the old railway station platforms with Alex & Lou and a non-stop laughter & shenanigans. WHAT A DAY!

Here are a few highlights from an amazing day with two wonderfully perfect humans, I'm so glad Alex & Lou found each other, the love they share with each other (and Poppy) is genuinely wonderful! WEDDINGS EHH? ❤️

LUIS⚡MICHAEL

A LOVE STORY FROM SOUTH AFRICA TO SOUTH FARM! The incredible wedding of Luis & Michael was such a joy to capture, and I have loved hearing about their journey as a couple and how they have both become the best versions of themselves with each other, resulting in a romantic proposal in Luis' home country of South Africa at the top of Table Mountain and then the mighty deed being done at the stunning South Farm! WHAT A DAY! 😍

I knew this was going to be a brilliant day from the moment I chatted to these guys, they have such an honest love for each other, and it makes them both glow in each other's presence in a way that you just cannot fail to see! They actually suggested to me they might not photograph well together, Luis even joked I might have my work cut out for me making them look as happy as my other couples, but I had to chuckle to myself because I knew it wouldn't be hard as they are just so RIGHT for each other that they would struggle to look like there were having anything but the best day of their lives and so it proved, JUST LOOK AT THEM ❤️

This day had it all, so here are a few personal highlights from a perfect wedding, for two wonderfully suited humans! Heres to you Luis & Michael, there was so much love for you on display by EVERYONE at this celebration of you both, and I think that says EVERYTHING about who you are and why you have found each other ❤️

Thank you for trusting me to capture it 📸

JACK⚡SAMUEL

FOREVER & G'DAY, MATE! The wonderful wedding of Jack & Samuel, accompanied by their ever faithful dog Otis, at the beautiful Crondon Park was as joyful, loving, and emotional as it was colourful! JUST LOOK THESE GORGOUS HUMANS 🙂

Samuel, who came to the UK from Australia just for an adventure, met and fell in love with the fabulous Jack, and the two of them have built and incredible relationship together packed with travel, shared passions, fabulous personalities and their love for their son (yes, a dog) OTIS, who actually had the the best hair do at the wedding IMO haha!

WHAT A DAY & WHAT A COUPLE! It was a blast capturing this amazing wedding for this wonderful couple, I had one of the best groomsmaid groups in ages who had me grinning all day, the laughter was constant, the speeches actually made me cry they were so beautiful, and the Jack & Samuel looked like the happiest people in the world! LOVE IS THE ANSWER 🙂

LAURA⚡GEORGE

THE ONE WITH THE MASSIVE EDITORIAL VIBES! Oh George & Laura, what a truly stunning day you had at Hatfield Place, and thank you so much for trusting me and pushing me out of my comfort zone with the challenge of adding a little editorial edge to my usual candid style!

I met these two gorgeous humans last year capturing the brilliant day of Emily & Jamie, we had a some running banter throughout, and at the end of the wedding they asked if I was available to capture there day BUT with a little caveat that Laura wanted me to add in a few stylish editorial portraits! I immediately said yes because they are an awesome couple, but as this day got closer my anxiety grew as this was going to take me right out of my comfort zone, I really don't do this style of wedding...do I? 🤣

I need not have worried, I have always been able to shoot stylised images and mix in with my usual candid approach, and Laura & George were the perfect people to capture as they NAILED this wedding and the vibe 100%, so here are a few highlights from a fantastic day that I am truly grateful for being trusted with! WHAT A DAY & WHAT A COUPLE ❤️
