Marianne Taylor Photography | Portrait & Family Photographer in Cornwall
On-location portrait and family photography in North Cornwall. Siren of the Sea sessions, couples, families. Soft, romantic, coastal.
I still can’t quite believe that the current October/November issue is the last ever issue of Cosmopolitan Bride. Cosmo Bride was the first magazine to feature pictures from the weddings of my lovely couples, and it is really really sad to see it go. Flo & Chris’ beautiful farm wedding is gracing the pages of the last issue, and with that, I will bid my farewell to the prettiest bride on the block… it has been an honour and a pleasure to share column space on your beautiful pages. x
While I was travelling, my lovely couples kept popping up in magazine features all over the place. I finally had time to read through all the features and it was so much fun revisiting good times! Here’s a little round up of the latest glossy coverage.
Jane & Michael’s wedding in Botleys Mansion is featured in the Sep/Oct issue of You & Your Wedding.
Elodie & Vianney’s wedding in France, and Becks & Andi’s in Cornwall, are gracing (the super pretty!) pages of the ‘destination issue’ of Signature Weddings magazine.
Amanda & Mike’s Soho wedding is featured in the August issue of Perfect Wedding magazine
Emily & Owen’s London wedding made it all the way to the exotic pages of Cosmopolitan Bride China.
And finally, Jessica & Alexander’s Finsbury Townhall wedding was featured in the July issue of Wedding Ideas Magazine.
There is a lovely write up about me, Jesh and Beloved in the August issue of Photo Professional magazine, which is out now. They’ve also laid my pictures out really nicely (even if Jesh’s bit has a picture taken by me as well, sorry Jesh!). I’m very excited that Beloved is getting good, level-headed exposure such as this, and I firmly believe that the future is bright for more fulfilling type of photography.
On the pages of a special photography supplement inside the latest issue of You & Your Wedding I, alongside a few other UK photographers, had the pleasure of answering some questions about wedding photography. Also in the supplement there was a lovely feature on Daphne & Rom’s Manchester wedding. If you want to take a closer look, the issue is available at newsagents now.
Elodie (or Eleanore as her public persona is called) & Vianney’s beautiful French forest wedding got featured in the May/June issue of You & Your Wedding magazine, which is available at newsagents now. Seeing the pictures again really suited the lovely sunshine and my summery mood today.
It was quite exotic to see Anna & Chris’ wedding featured in the March issue of Cosmopolitan Bride in China. I’ve only seen the layout in pdf form so far, but am looking forward to browsing through the whole magazine once I get my hard copy of it – even if I’m not going to understand a word of it. :D
Laura & Richard’s gorgeous Greenwich wedding is currently gracing the pages of the April/May issue of Cosmopolitan Bride, and lovely it looks too, I think Laura’s purple colour theme looks right at home on the pages of a magazine! Do pick up a copy at your nearest newsagents if you want to take a closer look.
2011 started with a bang, with lots of my lovely brides (and grooms, obviously!) prettifying the pages of magazines in news agents all over the UK. Emily & Owen‘s rockin’ London wedding got featured in the Feb/March issue of Cosmopolitan Bride, while Lucy & Brandon‘s elegant Andaz Liverpool Street wedding currently graces the pages of Wedding magazine, plus you can also find Sarah & James‘ beautiful countryside wedding in the newest issue of Wedding Flowers.
I hope you all had a brilliant New Year’s and are getting used to the new decade. I’m still slightly confused about where 2010 went, but I’m starting to get super excited about the amazing weddings ahead of me. I have to say it, I just love my job!
If you’ve had a chance to take a peek at the December/January issue of Wedding Flowers, you might have spotted Jacqueline & Simon’s beautiful Somerset wedding on its pages. Seeing this pretty feature really took me back – oh summer where did you go!
Rose & Brendan‘s intimate garden wedding is featured in the Dec/Jan issue of Wedding magazine. I do apologise for the crappy scans, not sure why, as a photographer, I haven’t thought of just taking a picture of the spreads! Hey ho. :D
Phew! It’s been a busy old week! Moving house and wading through a gazillion cardboard boxes isn’t really all it’s cracked up to be…
Now that I finally have my office (well, a temporary one at least) up and running again, I’m trying to get back on track with all the stuff I’m supposed to really be doing instead of moving boxes full of mysterious stuff from place A to place B. But until I get more organised, here’s a little something to distract you.
My copy of the November issue of Photo Pro Magazine, for which Kat from Rock ‘n Roll Bride interviewed me for her column, finally made it’s way over to the new place after a slight redirection detour. I have to say, it’s more than a little bit weird reading about yourself in a magazine you subscribe to…
Somehow the timing of this magazine feature is so very fitting, as just last week I was reminiscing over Becks & Andi’s cliff top wedding in Cornwall in June. It seems impossible that we’re now suddenly in October – it seems like it was just yesterday when we were listening to the sounds of this amazing party mixing with the sound of the waves rolling against the Cornish cliffs. How time flies! The Nov/Dec issue of You & Your Wedding, with Becks & Andi’s wedding feature, is out now.
It seems like forever since Emily and John’s winter wedding in Oxford last December. Seeing the wedding featured in the October issue of Perfect Wedding magazine brought back a lot of memories. It also got me in the mood for the next winter wedding season which is just around the corner – bring it on!
Anna & Russ’ beautiful wedding at Fulham Palace is featured in the October/November issue of Wedding Flowers, out now. I have to say that the flower arrangements, by Euphoric Flowers, were definitely some of the prettiest I’ve ever seen. Looking at pictures from this wedding now makes me nostalgic about the start of the summer, how did it go past us so quickly??
Sam & Adam (a.k.a. awesomest clients ever™) have the pleasure of starring in a real weddings feature in the October/November issue of Cosmopolitan Bride, which is out now. The timing’s quite appropriate as well as tomorrow I’m off to cover another wedding at the Andaz – I adore that venue!
A while back I had the pleasure of getting interviewed by the lovely Rachael D’Cruze for The Photographer’s Guide to Turning Pro, a new magazine from the people behind Professional Photographer, which is aimed at photographers who are about to embark on the journey of turning their hobby into a business. The issue is out now, and you should be able to find the at your nearest newsagent’s – if you’re an aspiring photographer I think the whole magazine is a pretty good read.
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!
It was exciting to see a couple of my brides gracing the pages of the April/May Cosmopolitan Bride. Eleni was featured in the ‘real bride’s beauty’ section…
…and in the ‘real weddings’ section there was a beautifully laid out feature on Magali & Jeff‘s wedding. The issue is out now, so go get it! :)
Katie & Sam’s wedding got featured on The Wedding Chicks. I love how pretty the images look on there, almost like it was meant to be. :D
