On-location portrait and family photography in North Cornwall. Siren of the Sea sessions, couples, families. Soft, romantic, coastal.
Been feeling a bit blah today so I thought I’d post Emilie & Guillaume’s engagement session on the South Bank in order to cheer myself up a bit. So much colour and laughter! I loved these two, and feel so honoured that they came all the way from France to have a session with me. Thank you Emilie and Guillaume, I do hope your wedding day will be absolutely fantabulous! x
Here are a few shots from Rubbina & Louis’ South Bank engagement shoot from a few weeks ago. Despite the lovely sun, the temperature on the day plummeted due to the freezing wind, and I don’t think any of us could feel our fingers by the end of the shoot! But we did still have a good time, which is all that matters. Fingers crossed that was the last properly cold day of the winter. I’m really looking forward to seeing Rubbina & Louis again at their wedding, hopefully in much warmer conditions!
What were the chances that I’d get two weddings at the The Garden Museum in the same summer, both with a bride called Claire. Pretty good it seems! :D Claire and Ben are getting married next month, and last week we went for a little stroll along the South Bank for a few ‘warm up’ pictures. People often ask me what the point of an engagement shoot is. For me, it’s a great way to get to know the couple, and to get them to relax in front of my camera so they can truly trust me on their wedding day. It’s also usually good fun, and as a bonus the couple will hopefully end up with some pretty pictures. You wouldn’t believe how common it is for a couple not to have any decent pictures of themselves together, as one of them is usually behind the camera!
Here’s a little taster from Claire & Ben’s engagement session on the South Bank in central London. The weather was insane, constantly going from bright sunshine to rain and back, but we didn’t let that slow us down! More to follow…
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!
