LexingTEN Charity Auction

Hats off to Lexington Catering who, as part of their ten-year anniversary, are finding ways to give back - this charity auction was in aid of the Ben Jonson School in Mile End. Co-hosts Reed Smith were to thank for the event's fantastic views over London as it was held on their premises on the 31st floor of the Broadgate Tower. The evening involved guests dressing up as chefs to carve their own delicious leg of lamb, a fierce competition for the most creative trifle design (let's just say that there were some very creative designs out there and...not very edible ones) and, of course, some even fiercer bidding to get some of the top prizes (helicopter flights over London, anyone?)

UK Sport Olympic debrief

I was chomping at the bit to shoot this media briefing for UK Sport because I got to take photos of (and with - YAY!) Katherine Grainger, the most successful British female rower of all time. She's proof of what you can achieve - a 3x silver winner, she pulled off gold at 2012 at the "grand old age" of 37. Roll on 2016 in Rio - fingers crossed Grainger decides to go for it!

I was in awe to meet and photograph Kate Cross for the Sunday Times Style magazine. Kate is a consultant paediatric surgeon at Great Ormond Street Hospital who performs keyhole surgery on babies as small as the one in the photo. To read Olivia Gordon's article, please click HERE

Fatima and Adrian's Central London Wedding

Fatima and the girls got ready at the Manderville Hotel in Mayfair, where Katy Richards was in charge of hair and make-up. Fatima wore such a jaw-dropping Pronovia gown, we had to find a suitably regal backdrop. Hey presto - Tower Bridge just happened to be on route to the reception :-)

I was really pleased to shoot for the Sunday Times Style Magazine, especially as it meant meeting this fascinating young rabbi - Miriam Berger - who is still very much in a minority of female rabbis in Britain.  To read the full feature by Olivia Gordon, please click here.

East London DIY Wedding

So, I recently moved home and news got out that I shoot weddings - to say that I was a little bit nervous when my neighbours booked me for their big day is an understatement! But Lisel and Phil were definitely one of the most chilled couples I've ever photographed and their wedding was brilliant - family and friends were roped in to decorate the local school (an Edwardian Hall with gorgeous art deco features) and Phil even polished his baking skills for their own three-tiered wedding cake.

Cooling Castle Barn Wedding

Hannah and Enrico exchanged their vows at this hidden gem in Kent, Cooling Castle Barn. We were so lucky as we had the perfect spring weather which lasted just until the group shots, then the heavens opened and everyone ran for shelter. As so often before a downpour, we had really beautiful light, so the feel of the photos is soft and summery. Hope you enjoy the browse!

Little Shop of Horrors

It was a real pleasure shooting Westminster Kingsway's thespians and stars-in-the-making. The man-eating plant from Little Shop of Horrors (three girls in the middle) was the meanest and most ingenious re-invention of the original. Click to see more pics.

Silk's Day at Lincoln's Inn

It was a real honour to photograph Anneliese Lindsay and Rebecca Stubbs on the day they were taking silk. Anneliese was in her final month of pregnancy with her second child and Rebecca had both her sons with her on the day. To have achieved so much, especially with the distractions that a young family brings, is incredible - hats off to both! Click to see more photos.
