  • Esther & Simon | The Swan at Shakespeare’s Globe wedding venue

    Esther & Simon | The Swan at Shakespeare’s Globe wedding venue

    I love a fun and relaxed London wedding, and Esther and Simon’s celebration at The Swan at Shakespeare’s Globe was certainly that.

    They both prepared for the celebrations at the amazing Mondrian hotel on London’s south bank, which is just a short walk from their wedding venue, The Swan at the iconic Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre. With the stunning backdrop of  St Paul’s Cathedral and the London skyline, they held their intimate ceremony in The Balcony Room with their friends and family, followed by plenty of food, drink and dancing. I managed to sneak them out for some couple portraits along the famous riverside, where their joy and elation was so obvious, they put a smile on the face of every tourist they passed!

    Esther looked so beautiful in her  Windsor and Eton Bride’s gown, and Simon looked pretty sharp in his  If The Suit Fits outfit. I had photographed their Hampstead engagement session a few months previously, so they were both really comfortable and relaxed in front of the lens.

    I would definitely recommend The Swan at Shakespeare’s Globe wedding venue if you love all things London and want to raise a toast to love as the sun goes down over the Thames.

    Here are a few highlights from their wedding, which will give you a good idea of how I capture the day.

  • Greenwich Park engagement session London | Rachel and Alex

    Beautiful Greenwich Park engagement session with Rachel and Alex.

    I spent a lovely afternoon wandering around Greenwich Park and the National Maritime museum with Rachel and Alex recently. They will be celebrating their wedding later this year in Coventry but as London is where they both call home now, we decided to make the most of what this beautiful city has to offer for their engagement session.

    Every corner of England’s capital is so full of history and interesting discoveries, but there is something so evocative about Greenwich. For me, it instantly conjures up Turner-esque images of mighty sea battles across the globe and great advances in astronomy and navigation.

    Rachel and Alex’s love story has an international flavour too, as they originally met and fell in love in Germany when they both worked for the same company. Alex has recently relocated to London and they are looking forward to the next chapter in their lives together.

    Here are a few highlights from our Greenwich Park engagement session. If you are currently planning your own wedding adventure, and would like a beautiful, modern engagement session in London (or elsewhere), I would love to hear from you.
