Simona & Dan in Cosmopolitan Bride

As much as the process of taking the actual photographs is enough to satisfy my creative urges, I can’t help it that after a decade of working as a magazine designer in my previous career, I always get very excited about seeing my work published in magazines. You can find a feature on Simona & Dan‘s beautiful London wedding in the real weddings section of the August/September issue of Cosmopolitan Bride, which is out now.

And on that note I’m off to Somerset for what promises to be yet another gorgeous summer wedding. See you next week!

Simona & Dan | Wedding

Ooh I do love an Andaz Liverpool Street wedding! Luckily I have quite a few of them coming up, but Simona & Dan’s was the first one this year, which makes it a little bit special. The ceremony of Simona & Dan’s wedding took place in the Bishopsgate Room of the Andaz, while their drinks reception was held at the Gallery and dinner in the gorgeous 1901 restaurant. I have to say that I was blown away by how Simona had planned every little detail SO perfectly. From her gorgeous Vera Wang gown, to the purple colour theme running through the day, everything looked just absolutely sublime!

After the speeches guests piled onto an old London bus, which ferried us over to the St Mary Axe at the top of the Gherkin. Despite the darkness and the fog, the views from up there very pretty spectacular. What a place to dance the night away! Oh and a special shout out goes to the boys from Wedding Smashers who did a seriously good job on the decks. If you’re in search of the coolest wedding DJ’s in town, look no further.

Thank you so much Dan and (princess) Simona! I loved every minute of your beautiful wedding and I hope you will always be as happy together as you were on the day. <3

This one’s for the lovers

I thought this ring shot from Simona & Dan’s wedding was a quite fitting way to wish all of you, whether already hitched or yet to marry, a lovely Valentine’s Day! Remember that love is all that really matters in the end. x

Simona & Dan | Engagement

If there was an award for the craziest engagement shoot weather ever, Simona & Dan’s shoot would win hands down. Oh. My. God. Gale force winds and horizontal rain made this one of my most challenging shoots to date. I have to say that Simona and Dan were absolute troopers, and despite the slightly ‘windswept’ look, Simona managed to look absolutely stunning throughout! They are one of my (many!) couples getting married at the Andaz next year, and as if that wasn’t exciting enough a prospect, their evening party will take place at the Gherkin. I can’t wait!
