creative wedding photographer in bristol

What a year! 2010 was my busiest year ever and most of my work came through recommendations! That means so much to me, thank you.
Also many of my photos were published in bridal magazines this year and three of my pictures made the front covers!
I would like to dedicate this slideshow to all the wedding couples I had the pleasure of photographing in 2010. It was a privilege to be part of your big day guys. Thank you all so very much.

halswell house wedding photography

Congratulations to Julia & Digby who got married at Halswell House in Somerset. The couple works in theater production in London and when they saw the Halswell House for the first time they were hook by the atmosphere and beauty of the place. Julia was brave enough to have all group photos outside, so we have to make sure that they are done quickly and smoothly, which is very crucial for winter weddings. Having a toastmaster is always a bonus. Thank you Chris.

After the first dance we had a fantastic firework display, which was Julia's surprise to her new husband and all the guests.

What advice would you give to brides reading this who are planning their wedding?
Make sure that you have a trusted, reliable friend on hand during the morning of the wedding. Everyone who is closely and emotionally involved in the wedding will be too excited and/or stressed to be much use so having someone on stand-by whom you trust to be calm and organised is vital. There will inevitably be things that need doing which you haven't thought of and knowing there's someone you can ask to sort those things out will keep you and your mum from getting too stressed. To use a theatre analogy, just make sure you've got a good stage manager on hand!

ss.great britain wedding photography

Congratulations to Joanne & David who got married on the SS Great Britain in Bristol city centre. Last year I photographed Jo & David’s friends at Ashton Court, who recommended me to them. David arrived with his Best Man in an old stylish MG. Not long after Joanne arrived with her father in a white Rolls Royce. The ceremony and reception was very personal and touching.
In the evening we entertained the guests with our mobile studio, photographing all the guests in a picture frame which was a big hit with the guests and also fitted to the venue decor perfectly.
