Special Offer– 2012/13 Winter Weddings Discount
We’re delighted to announce a new promotion we’re offering to couples booking their weddings between 1st November 2012 to 28th February 2013. We are offering all those that book us for weddings between these two dates a 15% discount on our published pricing and packages (which start at £1200). This is a significant saving and reflects the fact that more and more couples are holding winter weddings.We’ve had some experience of shooting winter weddings and we love shooting them! Check out our blog for some up and coming posts featuring 3 weddings we recently shot in December 2011.
Family Photoshoot — Essex
We had so much fun on this family portrait shoot, and Rob, Ling and Hayden were great fun to work with. I’ve known Rob for a couple of years now and we were delighted to meet his wife Ling and their son Hayden. I should of course mention little Smig the dog, who had more energy than a nuclear power station! This lifestyle shot took place at Weald Park near Brentwood in Essex, and it provided us with some great locations to work with. I hope you like the pics!
Fabricio & Maiko Part 2
Following the wonderful picnic and portrait session in Richmond Park, we decided to take Fabricio and Maiko down to the riverside to get some more portraits whilst the light was fading. You get a beautiful ‘warm’ light at this time of day which is perfect for romantic portraits, and Fabricio were brilliant to work with. I just love the images that Brenda took of Fabricio and Maiko ‘framed’ by the arch of the bridge.
We then had a brief 30 minutes break for a sandwich (even photographers need to refuel) before meeting our lovely couple at the Rodizio Rico Brazilian restaurant in Fulham. They were joined by more friends at this stage and they had a truly wonderful evening meal. I must admit, the food looked dead tasty.
All in all this was a really wonderful wedding– very warm, intimate and personal, and without a doubt one of our favourite weddings of 2011.
Maiko & Fabricio’s Wedding Part 1
Maiko and Fabricio got married on a lovely day in August. Their day started off at the very grand Wandsworth Registry Office, with just themselves and two other couples present (not forgetting little Natalie of course!) This was followed by portraits in Richmond Park. For those of you that don’t know you need a license to photograph for commercial use in any of the Royal Parks. We found this out literally the day before the wedding! Needless to say we managed to secure a license in time– phew!
We normally have 30 minutes or so at weddings to take portraits of our couples, but in this case we were spoilt, as we had a full hour to get portraits of Maiko and Fabricio! This is unusual in the UK but the norm in the States, and we would encourage more couples to allow this much time– It really does allow us photographers to have more time to get a great range of creative and beautiful portraits. This full hour meant that we got some great images of Maiko and Fabricio sharing a picnic with their close friends at the park, followed by some relaxed portraits. We hope you love these pictures, and we look forwards to sharing part 2 of their day with you shortly!
Magazine Style Album — Oaks Farm, Croydon
We’re delighted to say that we recently became one of the preferred photographers for the beautiful Oaks Farm wedding venue, in Croydon, Surrey, and we’ve been working hard on our sample album for them. This beautiful looking Magazine Style album is 12“x12” in size and comes with a genuine leather cover. These albums are also available in a range of other covers, including Leatherette, Photo Cover and Brushed Aluminium. They can also be embossed with the name of the bride and groom.
We take a lot of time over our album designs, and we hope it shows. Our design style is clean and uncluttered, and we aim to present the images in a way that really tells the story of the wedding day. This means that every time a couple looks at their album they can relive their special day as if its was happening all over again. We hope you like this new album, which will now be living at Oaks Farm– please take a look at it if you drop by!
