Hampshire Wedding Photographer | Megan + Adam

At the end of Paul and Wade’s big day last year, I drove home thinking what a thoroughly bunch of lovely people were at their civil partnership, and Megan and Adam were certainly part of that bunch.  Their wedding was relaxed and easygoing, just like they are, and was held all within a few minutes walk from Megan’s family home in Gosport.  Many members of the congregration turned out to support the couple as well as Megan’s father, who just happens to be the vicar at St Mary’s Church.  After being pummeled by confetti we headed for the beach for a quick portrait session (such a rare occasion for me to be near a beach!).  It’s always a good idea to do portraits somewhere a bit more private as it gives the bride and groom a bit of time on their own to enjoy being newly married and to let it all sink in before joining their guests for the rest of the day.  Here are a few faves:

Fantastic set as always!

St Clement Danes and Thames Rowing Club | Lindsy + Richard

There are a few weddings every year at which I simply adore the family, and Lindsy’s family is definitely one of them. I was so happy to have hooked up again with her and Rich after meeting them at Lindsy’s brother’s wedding last year.  Rich is in the RAF so naturally they decided to get married at St Clement Danes, the Central Church of the Royal Air Force, situated on an island right on the Strand. “Oranges and Lemons” say the bells of St Clement’s. Sound familiar? Rich and his men were dressed in their finest, complete with swords which were used to make a dramatic exit from the church. The whole day was very much about London in springtime. After the ceremony we piled onto a red double-decker bus which took us to Blackfriar’s Embankment and from where we sailed to Thames Rowing Club in Putney. A nice touch were the dohl drummers who greeted us at Putney Pier and marked the second half of the day, where there was a much more Eastern atmosphere, reflecting Lindsy’s roots. Lindsy and Rich put so much into their day and it was worth every effort, with the finale being an A-M-A-Z-I-N-G choreographed dance in Bollywood style! Here are a few faves from the day:

Great shot, Julie. It is a very succeeded photo: the black and white reinforce the rhythm of the unfocused first plan and the trumpet player come alive. Fantastic. Congrats.
