Happy new year everyone!!
I've just returned from the most fabulous month back home in South Africa, and first thing on my 2019 agenda was to post a sneak peak from Steve and Lisa's gorgeous winter wedding at Great Hallingbury Manor.
Wonderful venue, gorgeous couple and an amazing group of wedding suppliers, it was a dream day!
Here's some of my faves from their beautiful wedding, enjoy!

I photographed Gemma and TeeJay's wedding this week-end, and it was just amazing!! It was an absolute dream of a wedding, especially as I got to work with one of my favourite make up artist, Sophie Matthews... who always make the bridal party look flawless.
They got married in a beautiful little church, nestled in High Beech, and we managed to squeeze in a few shots before it started tipping it down with rain!
The best part about the whole day, was that the reception was held at their very own restaurant The Farmhouse. These two love birds met while they both worked at Jamie's Italian, and finally achieved their dream of opening their very own restaurant. I adore this place... every little detail looks beautiful and it was the perfect setting for their day. The food was incredible, the staff were fantastic, and I couldn't recommend this lovely place highly enough.
Here's just a very quick sneak peak of your amazing day... so much more to come!

Anastasia and Tolga tied the knot on Tuesday, and it was amazing!! The tube strike and drizzle could do nothing to dampen this wonderful day. The bride and groom were SO into each other... they didn't stop kissing and cuddling all day, so romantic! The venue, The old Marylebone Town Hall, could not have been more perfect. The lighting was amazing, and their were beautiful little rooms where the bride and groom could take a moment to themselves while the guests exited for the confetti throwing (and I got the opportunity to take a few snaps... bonus!) The staff could not have been more helpful too.
We then popped over to the newly renovated The Sir John Balcombe. This is a gorgeous, cosy pub, which made the perfect backdrop to the lively, fun reception. The downstairs area was such a bonus, we had an impromptu little couple shoot down there, despite the drizzle outside!
Here is a super quick sneak peak of their amazing day, many more to come!

Jordana and Scott had the most awesome wedding ceremony this summer! It was one of the most gorgeously styled, fun and relaxed wedding I have ever been to. The decor was incredible, the couple were crazy in love, and their friends and family absolutely raised the roof during the speeches and on the dance floor.
I have SO MANY faves from this wedding... but here's just a little taster of their gorgeous wedding day.
CONGRATS Jordana and Scott, I can't wait to share the rest with you!





























































Alex and Darren got married at Mulberry House this summer, and it was amazing!! It was one of the hottest days of the year, but Alex managed to look cool and gorgeous all day.. I don't know how she does it!
Mulberry House is one of my favourite local venues. They laid out extra huge fans in the marquee to make sure the guests stayed cool and comfortable all day. The food was delicious, the decor was gorgeous, and the lake and bridge makes the perfect backdrop...an absolute photographer's dream. The
This wedding was such a lot of fun! Lots of happy tears and dancing and lots of fans to keep us cool.. everyone had a brilliant time.
Congratulations Alex and Darren, wishing you much more love and laughter in the future!
Here's your sneak peak... enjoy!
