Had a fun time yesterday photographing Emily at Clumber Park, Nottinghamshire, with photographer friends Crash Taylor and Will Pateman. We were blessed with the weather - coats off, cameras at the ready and we got down to creating images.

What a beautiful day for a bridal shoot last Sunday morning. We were at Mayfield House in Long Eaton with bridal dresses from Baroque Couture and flowers from The Flower Mill in Draycott. Jane and Louise, the models, did a grand job. Mayfield House is holding a wedding fayre on Sunday 31st May so, brides and grooms-to-be get yourselves there. Here are a couple of images that were taken. 

Last Sunday I was asked by Christina Savage to help her out at Claire and Tony’s wedding at Morley Hayes in Derbyshire. It was a lovely wedding. I thoroughly enjoyed the day shooting candid shots….standing back and capturing moments in time which are simply priceless. Thought I would share a few images with you.

Check this out. My brother Harry found this photograph of myself and my sister, Jill, amongst the archives. I must have been about 2 or 3 years old. Photography started at a very early age.  Just love this image.

I was delighted when I got a call from our local Breeze Magazine  to ask me if they could use an image of mine to be displayed on their front cover. Of course, I said ‘yes’. 
Elaina Evans from Baroque joined forces with commercial retail expert Justine Cook to expand the business by opening a ready to wear designer bridal gown boutique, The Dressing Room. They approached me to take documentary photographs of the opening. It was a fantastic afternoon with the Mayor of Erewash attending as well as a great number of brides to be. With the opening there was a Great Bridal Giveaway which involved a bride winning a Charlotte Balbier designer wedding dress. The image chosen for the front cover was a capture of the split second emotion that came from the lucky winning bride, Olivia Newton.
