Bridie the bridesmaid | Wedding

While going through the pictures from Lucy & Richard’s wedding it became quite obvious that there was a star emerging… Yes, I have to admit that a certain someone called Bridie stole my heart completely! So I just had to dedicate a whole blog entry to her, the cutest bridesmaid ever!

Lucy & Richard – Reception – Part II | Wedding

Here’s finally the last instalment from the reception of Lucy & Richard’s wedding. The Northbank Restaurant truly was a lovely venue for a small wedding such as this. It is stylish and contemporary, with amazing views, and yet it has this really comfortable and intimately friendly vibe about it. And the staff is absolutely lovely! Thanks so much for taking such good care of our little photography team.

If the warmth and joy of their wedding day is anything to go by, Lucy and Richard surely have a wonderful life ahead of them to look forward to! Thanks again guys for letting me share your special day with you.

Lucy & Richard – Reception – Part I | Wedding

The reception of Lucy & Richard’s wedding took place in the Northbank Restaurant, with great views of Tate Modern and the Millenium Bridge. The party kicked off with champagne out on the terrace, and even the sun came out to celebrate. If you’re trying to figure out why the ‘wedding cake’ looks a bit strange it’s because it was actually made of cheese! Later on it was cut and served as a cheese platters.

There were so many shots from the reception that I wanted to show, that I had to divide them between two entries so as not to crash anyone’s rss reader. :D So, look out for the second instalment later on.

Lucy & Richard – Ceremony | Wedding

The ceremony of Lucy and Richard’s wedding took place in St James Garlickythe in the City of London. Since Lucy and Richard live so close to the church, all they had to do in order to get there was walk over the road! The ceremony was beautiful and very intimate, yet the church gave it a grand atmosphere. Lucy was beautiful in her unique grey gown, and Bridie the bridesmaid behaved commendably.

It’s going to take a while longer to process the pictures from the reception, hopefully I’ll get some up early next week! And can I once again say a big thank you to my assistant/second shooter Susanna, who once again did a stellar job as my right-hand woman.

Lucy Bridal | Wedding

I just realised that now that the groom has well and truly seen his bride and the dress, I can show you some more images from Lucy’s bridal session. This is when Lucy tried her finished dress on for the first time. I really do love it’s colour and the details, such as the detachable train. Wedding pictures will still have to wait for a while I’m afraid!

Lucy & Richard | Thank you

Lucy & Richard’s wedding yesterday was lovely. Everything ran smoothly and even the weather held out and the sun came out to play. You’ll have to wait a while longer to see any more pictures as there is a lot to process. But I just wanted to say a big Thank You to Lucy & Richard for letting me be a part of your day, and congratulations again! I hope you’ll have a wonderful time on your honeymoon!

Bridie | Wedding

Marianne — Sun, 19 Apr 2009 21:40:00 +0000

Today I went to take some bridal portraits of Lucy while she tried her wedding gown on for the first time since it was finished. It really is a gorgeous and unique wedding dress, but I can’t show it on here yet as there is always the danger of the groom seeing it before the big day next week! So instead, here are a few shots of Bridie, who is also the bridesmaid. She took every opportunity to steal the spotlight away from the beautiful bride! :D

Lucy & Richard | Engagement

Marianne — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 20:14:00 +0000

Lucy and Richard are getting married at the end of April, and we just about had time to squeeze in an engagement shoot before the big day. It’s always very useful to have an informal shoot with the couple before the wedding day, as it gives us all a chance to get to know each other better in a fun and relaxed setting.

For this shoot, we had a fun time walking around the City and the South Bank in the hunt for some elusive sunlight. This area is very special to Lucy and Richard, as they live right by the river, with an enviable view of the Globe Theatre!

Have been editing yesterday’s engagement session with Lucy and Richard. Don’t know what happened to the time as I seem to have forgotten to get any dinner again! More tomorrow I think…
