The 2015 Distinguished Gentleman's Ride, London UK

'On the morn of the 27th September 2015, while a blood moon slept soundly, hundreds of extremely distinguished gentlefolk donned their finest tweed and mounted their mechanical steeds in anticipation of the ride of the year!'

Here are some of my favourite shots from The 2015 Distinguished Gentleman's Ride, London, UK.

Winter 2014 and Spring 2015 Highlights

What a fantastic 2015 it has been so far! It's only July and I've been on a radio show talking about Wedding Photography, up in a vintage helicopter taking photos of No Man's Land Fort in the Solent, had some fantastic press coverage, and so many fun shoots! 

2015 is now completely fully booked, with over 120 weddings, and 2016 is booking up very quickly - if you're interested in booking me for your event please do get in touch soon..

The wedding of Danni and Daryl was one of my favourite of all time - it was the perfect fairytale day - starting at the beautiful Amberley Castle and ending at Old Thorns near Liphook.

Kayleigh and Loren's lovely wedding started at St Mary's in Denham and went on to the fantastic Tudor Barn. It was a beautiful day and the couple had a lovely baby announcement for their guests.

Emily and Martin went to so much effort to make a truly memorable day, with everything from vintage bus transport for their guests to a welsh choir. The fabulous Annette Bradford of Elegance Bridal Coiffure took care of the hair and makeup, and the super talented Mark from Shortfilm Company did their videography. 

Old Thorns Wedding

Jo and Tori's wedding, at the Square Tower in Portsmouth, took place on one of the hottest days of Spring. It was such a fun day with lots of beautiful pastel tones.

Steph and Matt's wedding took place near Horsham in February. Although rain was forecast the clouds parted and we enjoyed a beautiful day of sunshine and smiles.




Sophie and Marcus' wedding at The Asylum in London was completely unique and stunningly beautiful! I instantly fell in love with the peeling paint and rustic charm of this intriguing building.

Simon and Felicity had their wedding reception at the the Tithe Barn, near Petersfield. It was my first time visiting this lovely venue, and I'm looking forward to being back there again soon.

Joel and Frankie were married at in Surrey, with a beautiful reception at Denbies Vineyard near Dorking. The wintery sun and early sunset gave us some lovely light to work with.

Vikki and Andrew were married in December at Marwell Hotel. After donning some wellingtons we were able to sneak in to the woods for some lovely winter photos amongst the trees.

Elliott and Lizzie's wedding was at Old Thorns in November. The rain stayed at bay just long enough for us to get out on to the golf course for some photos in my favourite spots.

Steve and Corrin were married at Rhinefield House on a beautiful sunny day in December. Winter and Spring afternoons are my favourite times to shoot - such beautiful light.

Emma and William were married in the lovely Bartons Mill in Old Basing. It was such a sweet day and completely family and child orientated.

Sofia and Thomas had their wedding at The Four Seasons in Dogmersfield in Hampshire - one of the most stunning hotels I've visited. With roaring log fires, and modern white spaces it had everything to make a truly memorable winter wedding. We even donned wellingtons and took a Land Rover ride out in to the grounds for some lovely twilight'y shots in the fading light. 


Natalie and Dominic were married at Eastington Park in Gloucestershire. It's a bit further than I normally travel, but was well worth it for this lovely wedding. 


Spitbank Fort is still one of my all time favourite venues - I love every trip out! On this particular day,  for Sarah and Matthew's wedding, myself and the registrars only just made it out in the strong winds and fierce seas!

Lucy and Shane were married at St Mary's Church in Portsmouth. It was the coldest day I can remember, and lost all feeling in my fingers for a while - but it was well worth it for these lovely shots of them outside the church.
