Alexis & Jack | Together

December 13, 2012 · 18 Comments

I can’t quite believe it’s been over a year since Alexis & Jack tied the knot at one of the most glamorous weddings I’ve had the pleasure of documenting. For their first anniversary they decided to do a Beloved session at their beautiful, colour-filled home, and I was more than happy to oblige. I simply love these two, and spending time with them is always so full of laughter and good vibes that my heart gets filled with joy. I also absolutely adore doing sessions at couple’s homes, I think it adds another layer to the story of who they are.

This post marks a slight change in the way I present my sessions. All engagement and Beloved sessions are now simply called ‘Together sessions’. I’ve had this feeling for a while now that it seemed artificial to separate them into different categories, since they are ultimately about the same thing, a couple, together.

Alexis & Jack | Wedding

October 6, 2011 · 45 Comments

Nothing I could write about Alexis & Jack, and their wedding, will do justice to the amazing people that they are. Ever since their Chinatown engagement session I had been impatiently waiting for the big day. And it certainly lived up to all my expectations, and then some! So where to start… Let’s try from the beginning.

The invitation suite was designed by Alexis and her mother (in conjunction with her stationery company Paper Dragon) and were all hand made by the lovely mother of the bride. I have to say that these, along with all the other paper goods designed by Alexis, set the tone for the day beautifully. But nothing came close to being more beautiful than Alexis on the day! She looked an absolutely knock-out in her Vera Wang gown, incredible Miu Miu heels and Atelier Millinery headpiece. Sophie Stafford on make-up, and Melanie Giles Salon on hair, completed the fabulous look. Alexis also wore her mother’s own bridal necklace, her grandmother’s tennis bracelet, and her bouquet was pinned with her grandmother’s art deco brooch. For the reception she added a belt made by Vera Wang Couturier with ribbon from VV Rouleaux and an AMAZING Vera Wang necklace.

The beautiful ceremony and glitzy reception of Alexis & Jack’s wedding both took place at the prestigious Bath Assembly Rooms in the city centre. Mary Lee Herrington of Forever and Ever Events was Day of Coordinator and my girl Steph Turpin of Fairynuff Flowers had created pure magic with the flower arrangements. Hannah Bowden from Searcy’s Catering was in charge of the fabulous food and the out-of-this-world cake was created by Linda Fripp and then customised with a cake topper by Cutture and ribbon from VV Rouleaux.

So many things made this wedding such a pleasure to be a part of, not least the other vendors, such as long time friends Wedding Smashers, who were on DJ duties, and  Allora Visuals – a cinematographer team I’ve always wanted to work with and finally had the chance to. Can’t wait to see what they captured! I have to also give a shout out to Hot Buttered Soul Collective who sang beautifully during the ceremony, and the lovely staff at The Assembly Rooms who were so helpful and accommodating.

But most of all, Jack and Alexis… I can’t congratulate you enough, it is clear that you were meant for each other and I am so so happy to have been present on your big day. Thank you so much for having us, and thank you to your families for being as utterly lovely as you two are. x

P.S. you can read Alexis’ side of her wedding day on her fabulous blog OMG I’m getting married!

Alexis & Jack | Engagement

February 17, 2011 · 62 Comments

What can I say… I love my job at the best of times, but sometimes I just have to pinch myself. Sometimes I feel knocked sideways by the amazingness of it all. Especially at times when I get to hang out with incredible people such as Alexis and Jack, who are just so completely open, and so full of love for each other that it practically hits you in the face when you catch a glimpse of it. How privileged do I feel to be able to witness and document such a beautiful thing.

Alexis, who is like a little ball of positive energy and good vibes, runs a wedding blog called Omg I’m getting married! (a site every bit as vibrant as her personality) and as a result the wedding she’s planning is going to be, in a word, E-P-I-C. I get all impatient just thinking about it!

For their engagement session Alexis & Jack wanted to head to London’s Chinatown. They met while they were both living in Hong Kong, so this part of town feels very homely to them. It was pretty perfect. The hustle and bustle, the delicious smells all around, the sun (oh, the sun!) – it was aaall good.

Thank you so much Alexis and Jack, for giving so willingly and for trusting the process, even when I told you to sit in the middle of a busy street! Love you guys.

P.S. Last but not least, can you all join together in singing Happy Birthday to Alexis as it is indeed her big day today!

In the mood for love

February 14, 2011 · 8 Comments

Well, I can’t let Valentine’s Day pass me by without a mention! Whether you feel the whole concept of the day is over-commercialised, over-schmaltzy or overly cruel to the single population, I think it has a valid place in the world. I don’t think it’s such a bad idea that at least once a year we are forced to think about the people who are dearest to us, whether they were our husbands, wives, lovers or best friends. It’s easy to forget to nurture those connections in every day life and start taking what’s most precious to us for granted. If you (even begrudgingly) only do one thing today, let it be being truly present for someone you love. I promise you it’s a win-win situation.

‘The greatest thing you’ll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.’
