Lynne & Hamd – Wedding at Otterburn Hall, Northumberland
I look back at my work and reflect on what kind of photographer I am. I’d like to think of myself as a journalistic-photographer who covers all grounds from preparation shots right down to the detail shots; but most of all, I like capturing ‘defining’ moments. Sometimes they happen so quickly that with a bit of luck & observation, you are lucky enough to get the shot. The above is one of my most memorable shots this year. It was a moment after Lynne’s dad gave her a touching speech, and Lynne went over to give him a hug, but before long, she was overwhelmed with emotions and gratitude, and…

Dawn & Phil – Wedding at Langley Castle, Hexham
Dawn & Phil share a passion for travelling. After working hard for a number of years, Dawn & Phil decided to take a year out to explore the world. They visited Hong Kong, Malaysia, Cambodia, China, Thailand and many more. In a way, I feel that I have met Dawn & Phil before, maybe it is because they understand a bit about where I come from? Dawn & Phil’s wedding was held at the beautiful Langley Castle in Hexham. Warm, cosy affair with lace & candles as the wedding’s Vintage theme. Each guests’ table was named after the place that they have travelled together, and a photograph of themselves at…

Caroline & Andrew – Pre-wedding in Edinburgh
When Andrew first contacted me, he expressed that he would like a pre-wedding session with his future wife, Caroline. He explained that after being with Caroline for 3 years, they rarely have photographs of themselves taken together, and now before they become husband & wife, Andrew would like to have a set of photographs of themselves together to capture this moment in time. I thought to myself: this is one romantic man. Is this Caroline or Elizabeth Hurley?

Joy & Tears
I am happy that wedding assignments has brought me to Paris, Venice, Rome, Cambridge, London and Spain so far. It is not about the places I’ve been. It is about having the opportunities to capture all the gorgeous couples in these wonderful locations. I’ve got to say that every couple is unique. Thank you for giving me the chances to witness one of your important moments in life. You guys have given me lots of Joy and Tears in many occasions. I am happy to see couples saying their vows to each other. I have to admit that sometimes it is really really hard for me to hold back my tears too. Below are some of the wedding photographs that I took in June. Enjoy. I…

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…
