Lucy and I had a fantastic time shooting Rosa’s boudoir photographs yesterday. Here are a few favourites.
Gary earned a Gold Award in January for this image of Heidi and Nick - shot on New Year’s Eve in Reigate, Surrey. The SWPP hold an international photography competition every month to celebrate the best in social photography – and this image will also go forward to the annual judging later in the year. This was the second successive Competition Gold for Gary.
Kiren and Fin’s engagement shoot today took place under heavy sleeting on Epsom Downs. Definitely the worst conditions I have experienced for this type of shoot, but as they were keen to go ahead, we tried to make a feature of the weather. Looking forward to photographing their wedding next month.
Heidi and Nick’s wedding – at St Mary’s church Reigate and Hartsfield Manor – took place on a very cold and windy new year’s eve. Despite the weather (and Heidi’s dress), they braved many outside shots and had a fantastic day.
Conditions couldn’t have been better for our December wedding at Great Fosters on the 22nd: snow, sun, stunning bride, fantastic venue and a great couple to photograph! The wedding had a really lovely festive atmosphere. We have now agreed to be one of the recommended photographers at Great Fosters.
There is a double page article on Gary’s wedding photography – and his recent Associateship Award – in this month’s edition of Master Photographer. The article describes his approach as “unique style of cinematic directed wedding coverage”. Not necessarily our choice of description!
Gary was again a multiple award-winner in this year’s International Aperture Awards. The Awards are regarded by many as the world’s most prestigious online photography competition.
It has been 2 years since I was at Clandon Park and then two successive weddings at the National Trust property come along. This time, on 5 December, Karin and Justin flew in from Florida to brave the cold.
Gary has landed another Gold Award in the SWPP’s National Monthly Competition. This image of Louisa and Ed was taken at Clandon park, Surrey, earlier in November. The couple, who work in BBC TV Production, were thrilled with the image. This will go forward to the annual judging next month.
