Patrick & Belinda - April wedding at Charterhouse School

I really can't believe it was April that I shot this lovely wedding down in Aldershot... This year has flown by!

Patrick and Belinda got married at their local church, then headed over to the stunning Charterhouse School in Godalming for their wedding reception. Yes it was chilly, and a tad windy, but they braved the weather for 20 minutes to allow me to get some lovely portraits of them around the beautiful school grounds... and they didn't moan once... perfect!

"Dear Ed & Lola - Thank you so much for our awesome wedding photos! You were both such a pleasure to have around, and so easy to work with - thanks you! We'll be recommending you to all the engaged couples we know from now until you retire! With love from Belinda & Patrick."

Charlotte & Col - a sunny Yorkshire wedding

Before moving up to the Midlands four years ago, the closest I'd ever got to Yorkshire was watching Emmerdale on the box, or cramming a Yorkshire pudding on my roast dinner every Sunday. Over the last couple of years however I've lost count of the amount of times I've visited England's largest county. I love it up there!

The amazing scenery, rolling hills, cobbled streets, stunning weather (some of the time), and ridiculously friendly folk, make visiting this part of the country an absolute joy. Add all these factors to Charlotte & Cols wedding party taking place in their gorgeous back garden and you've got a recipe for a fun-filled day of wedding shenanigans.


"Thank you so much for doing such a brilliant job and perfectly capturing our wedding day, we had an amazing time! I know you photograph plenty of weddings but your approach to our day was perfect, and we felt you were (almost) as happy to be there as we were! Thank you again. Lots of love Charlotte & Col."

 

Jon & Andrea - summer wedding at Kew Gardens

I met up with Jon and Andrea at Kew Gardens a few months before their wedding to snap their pre-wedding shoot. Within minutes of chatting over a brew I knew exactly how cool their wedding day was going to be. It was so clear to see that these guys were a couple totally in love with each other, totally not wanting a 'showy' wedding, totally reluctant to be the centre of attention on their big day, but totally dedicated to making sure that their wedding would have a relaxed vibe. A wedding where their closest family and friends could chill out and spend the day with them within a stunning setting... and guess what, they succeeded!

Jon and Andrea, your day rocked!


"Wow - Ed we absolutely love the photos, amazing. We were a bit hazy on some of the details, having gone away straight afterwards but they brought every little detail back. You've captured our friends characters exactly as they are, so so pleased! And the way you have captured the day, everyone looks so relaxed, happy and full of laughter, exactly the day we had planned and hoped for. Why anyone ever has group shots is beyond me! Thanks so, so much we LOVE them!"

Charlotte & Daniel - a sunny and stylish Dorset wedding

Charlotte and Daniel got married in Dorset back in July and were an absolute joy to spend the day with. Totally relaxed, totally chilled out with my approach to wedding photography, and totally happy to hike down to the beach for some kick-ass images to be shot… despite the gale force winds!

"We just wanted to say a MASSIVE thank you for being such an amazing photographer! Not only are the photos gorgeous - your style was exactly what we wanted - but you also managed to capture some great moments. You made an impression with our guests who all love your work. Thank you again. Love, Charlotte & Daniel Norman"

Amelia & Stephen - a sunny London pre wedding shoot

I recently met up with Amelia & Stephen in Kentish Town for their pre-wedding shoot… and boy was it HOT HOT HOT. It doesn’t matter how many times I go to London, I always seem to discover new streets, new backdrops, and cool locations for shots… being with a couple that know the area well is always a bonus too!

Looking forward to shooting your big day later this year guys.

Molly & Kelly - a cute Cornish wedding

If I worked in a busy office I think I’d be high-fiving everyone right now, as I’ve just finished editing this awesome wedding we photographed at the stunning Polpier House in Cornwall last month.

Molly and Kelly were one of the kindest couples I’ve ever had the pleasure to meet. They not only made our job easy by just letting us “do our thing” and blend in with the guests whilst documenting their day, but they also thanked Lola and I in the speeches, let us sit on the main table with them and all the guests… AND insisted that we got fed first when the meals were being dished out. Talk about making us feel welcome!

I normally tell you guys to sit back and enjoy looking at the images with a nice cuppa… but on this occasion I think a pint of scrumpy is in order!

THIS AWESOME WEDDING WAS ALSO FEATURED ON ROCK N ROLL BRIDE!

Andrea & Jake - a very vintage wedding

So much thought and hard work went into Jake and Andreas wedding (most of it handmade by Andrea!).

A large bridal party also made for lots of funky shots, and being able to spend time with both the bride and groom as they got ready in the morning was awesome!

If you're looking for inspiration for your own D.I.Y wedding, grab a cuppa and take a look at this super loved-up wedding.

Cat & Jon - Sunny Salcombe wedding (sneak peek)

Last week I headed down to Devon for the wedding of Cat and Jon. Like quite a few couples that have booked me this year, I’d not actually met the couple in person, but had been regularly keeping up to date with them via emails and Skype.

As you can see from the shots, we couldn’t have asked for better weather. Especially as myself and the guests hopped on a few boats in Salcombe and headed off to a teeny tiny beach for some snaps.

Thanks Cat and Jon for such an awesome day. I can’t wait to edit the rest of your images and get them back to you guys to enjoy!

Jen & Dene - Clumber Park pre wedding shoot

In just a couple of months I’m heading up to Northumberland to photograph the wedding of Jen and Dene. I caught up with them earlier this week for their pre-wedding shoot at Clumber Park. Along with their choccy Labrador Lilly, we spent an hour wandering around the lovely gardens, leaving Lilly to chase the squirrels, whilst occasionally jumping into shot!
