    Christs College wedding photography of Emma and James

    Unexpectedly fine weather for the Christs College wedding photography of Emma and James. The week before the country had been battered with howling gales, things weren’t looking promising. Thankfully though the weather calmed down and we even had some glorious winter sunshine. Great to be back at Christ’s College, such a beautiful venue for a wedding. Also great to be at a wedding with so much significance for Emma and James as this is where they first met back when they were undergraduates. Emma looked absolutely stunning – if there was any doubt she would look anything less. James looked devilishly handsome in his full white tie and tales but couldn’t really compete with Emma’s extraordinary shoes. The Louboutins were quite something to behold, all of them, even the cake topper and vodka luge Louboutin! There was such a great energy on the day, so many friends coming back to college made for a very familiar feel and plenty of Guinness welcomed everyone else in. That vodka luge also helped towards some impressive dancing later in the evening. Emma and James’s dance routine was out and out the best routine I’ve seen put together as a first dance, well if you’re going to do it, throw yourself into to completely!

    Christ’s College wedding | Just One

    jim / Cambridgeshire Wedding Photography, Christ's College / Cambridge weddings, Christ's College Cambridge, wedding photography / 2 Comments

    All week long, howling gales have been hitting the UK so the weather wasn’t looking promising for Emma and James’s Christs College wedding this weekend. But it really was the quiet after the storm as we had picture perfect skies and a warm and rain-free day. I had packed the car in full expectation of having to battle fierce wind and storms but thankfully it wasn’t needed. The word of the day? Well, it had to be ‘shoes’ and specifically Louboutins! So it’s probably a travesty that this shot is not of the incredible shoes themselves (that’s the main Louboutins, not the second pair for the car …) They actually deserve a little post all of their own. Here’s a shot of Emma from the start of the day on the roof terrace of The Varsity Hotel showing incredible grace and poise at the awkward moment another bride came up on to the terrace to have her photographs taken – obviously nowhere near as glamourous or beautiful as Emma. More images to follow soon.

    When Hilary phoned up to book a portrait session for her kids and their cousins (nine in total) and was keen to do it outdoors, I was more than happy but I did have visions of the snow and freezing cold weather that we had this time last year before Christmas. I had half expected a very brief photo session before the kids gave into the cold. But I have to take my hat off to her superb organisational skills in providing an absolutely gloriously warm and sunny day. Being a Polstead children’s photographer is always a lot of fun, always seem to be a great crowd of people, but with the fantastic weather, it meant we could do the formal group shots of the kids and then disappear off into the garden and woods and get some more informal shots as well.

    ISPWP Awards | award winning wedding photography

    jim / Awards, Documentary & Editorial, Loseley Park, Other Stuff, South Farm / Award winning wedding photography, Awards, Loseley Park, Loseley Park wedding Photographer, South Farm, South Farm weddings, Suffolk wedding photogapher / 0 Comment

    Having been a judge for this competition in the past, I’m only too well aware of high the standards are of photographs that are entered for the ISPWP. Competition is pretty tough as it is spread world-wide and amongst some of the best photographers in the wedding industry …so to have a couple of images recognised as award winning wedding photography is a real privilege. I was especially pleased as I was rated 15th overall and one of the few UK winners. The first shot is from Helen and Tom’s autumn wedding at Losley Park, Surrey, very moody venue shot, and the second image (which always makes me chuckle) is from Jess and Robert’s wedding at South Farm in the fantastically named village of Shengay-cum-Wendy.

    Notley Abbey wedding of Lucy and John

    My last wedding of the year was a Notley Abbey wedding with Lucy and John – and always great to go out with a bang. Beautiful autumnal day, low lying golden sunshine and the trees in glorious browns. Lucy and John were a great couple to work with, charming, great sense of humour (well, I hope so and that they weren’t just being polite with my jokes …) and their wedding day was a lot of fun to be at. Notley Abbey is a stunning venue to photograph at all year round, day and night and I am always amazed at how efficient yet completely unnoticed the staff are. Congratulations to the new Mr & Mrs Beirne! Here are a few of my favourite images and you can see the full gallery by clicking this link | Notley Abbey weddings

    Suffolk portrait photographer | The Haddows

    Lovely, as always, to see Olivia and Tris and their ever expanding family (four of them so far, another on the way). It’s been a real privilege to see their family grow. The first time I met Olivia, she was getting ready for her wedding at her parents house in Kensington, the next after their first was up and toddling and the most recent was with the four of them. Always a challenge to photograph two littl’uns in their best dresses whilst they are determined to get amongst the flower beds or have an impromptu tea party (with the photographer and a toy horse, of course) but hopefully we’ve managed to get a few decent snaps. And many thanks to the back up team of Olivia’s parents who jumped up and down, pulled funny faces, waved favourite toys and generally were very entertaining for the kids …now that would have made a picture!

    The last wedding of the year for me and it was the Notley Abbey wedding photography of Lucy and John. I love this shot of the two of them, it was right after the ceremony – and I mean ‘right after’ as I grabbed them just as they left the ceremony room so we could get a photo in the last bit of autumn light. It really was the last squeak of light left in the sky, the sun had set half an hour before this shot. It’s a testament to modern cameras that we can work in such low light situations and still get lovely colours and quality. But enough of the boring technical stuff – what I really like about this shot is that Lucy and John, like so many, are quite camera shy yet they were so happy (and a little relieved!) at this point, they just let me do my thing whilst they enjoyed the moment.
