First, both Rose & Brendan’s Southwark engagement shoot, and Caroline & Ben’s gorgeous London wedding got featured by Kat on Rock ‘n Roll Bride. And now Kat’s interview in the recent issue of Sew magazine was illustrated with a picture I took of her beautiful bespoke shoes. Yay!

I really enjoy reading up on their wedding plans, or checking out their style blogs, in order to find out a bit more about what makes them tick. I thought it might be fun to share a few of my favourite blogging brides (and one groom!) with you. I hope you’ll find these blogs, with very different subject matters, as enjoyable as I do.

A Norfolk wedding

A Norfolk wedding.

Clare is getting married on the beautiful Norfolk coast, and she blogs about her plans and ideas for the wedding. All her gorgeous moodboards really inspire me and make me look forward to this wedding so much!


Modern Vintage Bride

Modern Vintage Bride

Saleema blogs about all things wedding. She has an exquisite sense of style and a keen eye for details, especially those with a vintage flair, so I’m sure this is one wedding that will be absolutely stunning. Her wedding is actually split into two, with a Ghanaian ceremony on one day, and an English wedding on the day that I’m covering.


Eleanor BridgeLe Blog de la Mechante

Elodie’s blog is a treasure trove of quirky ideas, beautiful pictures and copious amounts eye candy. Her plans for her wedding are SO creative that the wedding will most likely be the most individual looking one I’ve ever attended, and I really can’t wait to see all the things she will come up with. Hers is bound to be a wedding full of fun and whimsy!


The Cherry Blossom GirlThe Cherry Blossom Girl

There’s no denying that Alix is one of the most stylish bloggers out there in the fashion blogosphere. I have no doubt that her wedding will be absolutely beautiful from start to finish, and that everyone involved will look super cool from head to bottom. What a better way to celebrate my birthday this year than to get to record this wedding. Squee!


Georgian LondonGeorgian London

If you’re interested in the history of London, Lucy’s blog is an absolute treat! Her writing is engaging and her facts well-researched, which has earned her blog all sort of accolades. It really is a fascinating look into the history of this exciting city that surrounds us.


Marc BrousselyMarc Broussely Photography blog

Marc has just launched a new website, and a new blog to go with it. I really enjoy his music photography and every time I visit his blog I get an itch to go buy concert tickets. If you’re a gig goer and love photography that helps you relive the best times, look no further than Marc’s blog.


Rock 'n Roll BrideRock ‘n Roll Bride

Well, technically Kat isn’t really a client of mine, but I have done a photo shoot with her, so I say she qualifies! How could I leave out the royalty of UK wedding blogs from my list. If you need ideas on how to make a wedding look like you, look no further. Kat’s blog is packed with individual couples channeling their inner cool.

The lovely Kat from Rock ‘n Roll Bride got interviewed for Aimee Marie Loves… What made it nice for me was that they had used my pictures of Kat to illustrate the article.

In other news, I’m busy trying to get the last wedding of 2009 and the first wedding of 2010 edited. Hopefully I’ll have some new pics to show you soon!

In the meanwhile, if you want to ask me anything, you can do so via this new site I’ve signed up for. Just pop your questions in the box below!

I was pretty chuffed when I was asked whether my pictures from Emily and John’s awesome wedding could be used in a double feature between two rocking UK wedding blogs, Rock’n Roll Bride and Rock My Wedding. As a photographer, I tend to tell stories via the pictures I post. The thing I really like about being featured in wedding blogs is that I then often get to read the other side of the story, as told by the bride herself. You can check the features out here: Part I & Part II.

Sam & Adam SO belong on Rock’n Roll Bride – they’re just too cool for school (however, using that turn of phrase probably puts me right in the opposite category :P). Sam’s Diana wasn’t just a prop by the way, unfortunately there is evidence of that fact on film…

Since Carolyn and Marc found me via Rock ‘n Roll Bride, I think it’s really fitting that their own wedding has now ended up being featured on the site! Thanks Kat, keep rocking!

A while back I asked Kat, of Rock ‘n Roll Bride fame, to take part in a personal photography project of mine. She was all up for it, and I’m really pleased with the results (which can be seen in my personal portfolio). Somehow Kat managed to persuade me to also take some portraits of her with balloons (despite me protesting about balloons having been done to death :P), and these shots are what came out of that session. It was a blindingly bright and super hot day, not really ideal for an afternoon shoot, but I do like how a fair few of these came out, and I guess I’ll have to admit that the balloons are pretty cute. :D Also, doesn’t her hair just kick some serious ass!

Steph & Rob’s wedding got first featured on Rock ‘n Roll Bride, and now on Wedding Cabaret. Thanks so much guys! I truly appreciate the work that sites like these are putting in promoting modern weddings and wedding photography!

I got featured on Rock ‘n Roll Bride today. I’m really chuffed as I love Kat’s blog and I’m always up for something different from the norm, so her readers are exactly the kind of people I want to reach. If you’re planning a modern kick-ass wedding, do check her blog out for inspiration!
