on the action!

JUNE 2008

Boats and calm waters within Chichester Marina was the relaxing setting for Jenny and Toby's engagement shoot. The lighting was lovely, not to bright with lots of great cloud cover. Jenny and Toby will soon be married down on Hayling Island in July.

Situated between Reading and Camberley sits the lovely New Mill, Eversley, Hampshire which is where Darren and Kathy will get married this August. We decided to meet up half way for their Engagement shoot between Berkshire and West Sussex, so where better than the luxurious grounds of Petworth House and Park, Petworth to relax and take some beautiful images.

Martin and Helen are due to marry soon at one of West Sussex's prime beauty spots at East Marden. What an incredible tranquil spot with beautiful wild flowers everywhere.

Katie and Ashley who are to be married at the Goodwood Park Hotel, Chichester, wanted to have indoor shots for their engagement shoot as they will be having lots of scenic shots for their wedding at Goodwood Park Hotel. Katie also loves black and white portraits.

Thanks for being such great fun Katie and Ashley, I really enjoyed the shoot!

Congratulations to Shirley and Tim who got married in Amberley Castle, West Sussex! What a wonderful day. The weather was perfect, the company great, and food delicious! All highly recommended.

Matt and Kate will be enjoying their wedding in September this year at the amazing Brighton Pavilion. If you ever get the chance, go and visit The Brighton Pavilion. It is a wonderful gem on our South Coast. Brighton is such a fantastic vibrant City it only seemed right to celebrate Matt and Kate's engagement shoot right in the heart of the City. Thanks for a great day guys.

Enjoying an engagement, pre-wedding shoot is the perfect way to enjoy something completely different to your wedding day and help you get over those photographic wedding nerves. This is a great way for me to get to know my clients better, and for them to understand a bit about how I will work on their wedding day. In the meantime, we enjoy the beautiful relaxed environment!

We are so lucky to live in such a beautiful County such as West Sussex! Going to this local beauty spot on the outskirts of Chichester, Kayi and Brian really enjoyed the bluebells in full bloom.

You can't beat the fantastic colours and fragrance this time of year.

Alison and David ventured down to West Witterings Beach with me for a really lovely afternoon for their Pre-Wedding shoot. Although it's still not sun bathing weather, what better place to capture the romance of the day!

MARCH 2008

SPRING TIME IS HERE...., well almost. It's a wonderful time for Engagement shoots especially in natural beautiful surroundings. It was at Slindon Woods, Chichester, where Shirley and Tim decided to have their Engagement Shoot.

I'm really looking forward to their wedding at the magnificent Amberley Castle in May. Thank you, Tim and Shirley for such a great afternoon.

Jo and Matt met me for their engagement shoot on a beautiful crisp, but sunny afternoon. Outside the beautiful gardens in front of the Anglesey Hotel, Gosport. It was suitably quiet so we had some fun together with Buzz their lovely companion!

Jo and Matt will be getting married at the exciting new wedding venue Explosion! Gosport in March 2008.
