Lisa & Glenn – Wedding at Close House Hotel, Newcastle upon Tyne
Lisa is from Newcastle originally and Glenn is half Dutch, half English. Their story of how they met is a unique one – they did not meet in UK; but in Bahrain where they both work, a lovely country with a great sunshine. They planned this great wedding remotely from Bahrain!

Lisa is such a great organiser, as she is the Event Organiser for the Formula One (F1) in Bahrain – I still remember at our meeting,…

Lynne & Hamd – Wedding at Otterburn Hall, Northumberland
I look back at my work and reflect on what kind of photographer I am.

I thought to myself: this is one romantic man. Is this Caroline or Elizabeth Hurley?

Joyce & Edward – Pre-wedding in Paris
Joyce & Edward found me over the internet, and several e-mails later we found ourselves meeting each other in Paris! A lot of couples have asked me what it is like to have a pre-wedding photoshoot with me? I like to offer my clients an experience to express their feelings on a pre-wedding photoshoot day, and to allow me to capture those emotions and delicate moments that often go unnoticed or pass us by in our busy everyday lives. ‘Photographs’ is the only way to capture these moments. This is my idea of the main purpose of a pre-wedding photoshoot; and not focus on the number of outfits, or the number of times you can change your look (make-up & hair). Of course, to have a few beautiful outfits and…
