Nina & Ben | Wedding

September 27, 2013 · 4 Comments

Nina & Ben’s (who’s engagement session you might have seen a while back) wedding meant a return to Andaz Liverpool Street, a venue very close to my heart. It’s always such a pleasure to work there, now with the current wedding planner, Karly Hunt.

After Nina got her hair and makeup done by Sarah Crick-Linton, and got dressed into her beautiful Pronovias gown and super stylish LK Bennett shoes, the lovely humanist ceremony took place in the Bishopsgate Room. Marianne from Sweetpea Flowers, created the stunning (as always!) flowers that set the tone for the whole day, along with the stationery by Minted. After the ceremony, it was time for cocktails in the Gallery.

For the reception, we ascended to the sublime 1901 Restaurant, where the amazing Chateau Macaron cake took centre stage. All the tables were numbered with champagne bottles Nina & Ben had collected from special moments in their life, a very sweet touch! The day was filled with so much love, laughter and Jager bombs, I just loved it all. It was also a beautiful mix of English and German (from Nina’s side) traditions.

What a joy it was to be back at The Andaz, and to get to be a part of Nina & Ben’s gorgeous day! Thank you so much for having us, you are amazing. x

Sarah & Colin | Wedding

April 25, 2012 · 19 Comments

As venues go, Andaz Liverpool Street is very close to my heart. Couple of years ago we shot so many weddings at the Andaz, that we might as well have moved in (oh I wish!), but strangely enough last year I did not have one wedding there. So being the photographer for Sarah & Colin’s Andaz wedding felt a little bit like a homecoming.

Sarah looked stunning in her Pronovias gown and those Jimmy Choos. Lauren Newman from Return to Glory took care of hair and makeup, while Maianne Johnson of Sweet Pea Flowers provided colour to the day with the stunning bouquets and flower arrangements.

The ceremony of Sarah and Colin’s wedding took place in the Bishopsgate room, with a drinks reception in the Gallery and wedding breakfast in the Great Eastern room to follow, centrepiece of which was the uh-ma-zing Peggy Porschen cake. A cool London theme carried throughout, from the tube map seating plan to the brilliant tube sign wedding favour biscuits by Biscuiteers.

And of course, it wouldn’t have been a proper homecoming had we not had a chance to cross paths with Max from the Wedding Smashers, with whom we share many happy memories from the dance floor of the Andaz!

Thank you sooo much Sarah and Colin for having us share your beautiful day with you, and for bringing us back to one of our favourite venues. x

Phil & Christian | Civil Partnership

February 13, 2011 · 46 Comments

There’s no two ways about it, Phil & Christian’s Civil Partnership at the Gherkin was the perfect way to kick off the new year. The day started at Andaz Liverpool Street where the boys and their families were getting ready. Everyone was in such high spirits and you couldn’t detect even a hit of nerves, but you could feel the excitement building as the big moment drew closer and we made our way to St Mary Axe at the top of the Gherkin. What followed was a truly moving ceremony, with the whole room filled with such joy.

Yes Events made sure that everything looked absolutely amazing and ran smoothly, and Rebel Rebel had created the most incredible flowers, which transformed the space completely and accentuated the incredible views. There was such attention to detail with every aspect of the day, not least with the out-of-this-world bespoke wedding cake, featuring Phil & Chris’ three cats, created by Choccywoccydoodah – it truly was a work of art.

One of the most memorable moments of the day caught me a bit off guard. The boys had me completely fooled earlier, assuring me there would be no ‘proper’ first dance, as they would rather everyone just got on the dance floor together right from the start. It takes a lot to surprise me, but when after the cake cutting they went straight into a surprise dance routine, choreographed to Kate Bush’s Wuthering Heights, I was pretty much gobsmacked! Now there’s a first dance I won’t forget in a hurry.

There ain’t no party like a Wedding Smashers party is a fact that gets proven every time I have the pleasure of working with this amazing team of DJs, and as always, they had the dance floor heaving right from the start. And from what I hear, that’s the way it stayed until the end of the night.

I’m so happy we got to be a part of this incredible day. Thank you so much Phil & Chris, you do know how to throw a party!

Lucy & Brandon | Wedding

September 23, 2010 · 26 Comments

Where do I start! Lucy & Brandon’s wedding at Andaz Liverpool Street in London was beautiful, not only because it was at one of my favourite venues, but also for the gorgeous little touches Lucy had created, and all the emotions that flowed on the day.

Lucy’s morning started a bit unusually, when she had a complete change of heart at the hairdresser’s. ‘My hair was done by the wonderful Paul at Aveda Academy on High Holborn. After spending two hours putting my hair up on the morning of the wedding, I decided that, actually, I wasn’t that keen and wanted to have it down instead… he didn’t even flinch, just did exactly what I wanted. He rocks!’ Personally I think it was just the right decision as Lucy looked really sweet with her curls. It also goes to show why you should reserve enough time for hair and make-up, you never know how much longer they might take!

How much do I love Lucy’s fab Jenny Packham gown, which she got from The Tailors Cat in Cambridge along with her earrings! Here’s what Lucy told me about finding her ‘Jenny’ and other accessories: ‘I saw the dress, tried it on, burst into tears and so did my mum. I didn’t even try on any others. Then the lady in the shop told me the name of the dress was “Sorrento”, which is where Brandon actually proposed to me last July, so I just knew it had to be that dress! When I left The Tailors Cat after finding the dress, I walked straight into Dune where I found the sparkly shoes. The headpiece was a gift from my cousins wife, who works at Richard Designs. The bridesmaid’s and flower girls wore off-the-rack dresses from Monsoon and just looked amazing.‘

Lucy wasn’t the only thing looking stunning on the day, I especially loved all the flowers and the cutest cupcake cake I’ve ever seen! Here’s what Lucy had to say about these: ‘I was bowled over by the flowers on the day, Lisa Carney at Moyses Stevens took my brief and just excelled in executing it. It was better than I could have imagined! My giant cupcake and the mini cupcakes were from Crumbs and Doilies in Wandsworth. Again, they took my brief and just delivered such a beautiful display. It was cute and fun, and although the surroundings are very chic and elegant in 1901, I loved the fun aspect the cakes brought.’

Lucy and Brandon love their little dogs, and as they weren’t able to have them there to share the day, they had a photo of them up by the top table so that they could attend at least in spirit! I thought that was really sweet.

When the evening drew closer DJ Jason Dupuy from Platinum Promotions got everyone on the dance floor. And that’s where we left them, as we packed up our gear at the end of the night, and jumped into a black cab to take us home.

Thank you Lucy and Brandon for having us share your day, it was a privilege!

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!

Sam & Adam | Wedding

April 29, 2010 · 27 Comments

I’m so stoked to finally be able to blog Sam & Adam’s stunning Andaz wedding! I know it’s so so wrong to have ‘favourite’ clients, but if I was forced to rank my clients (at, you know, gunpoint or something) Sam and Adam would come way up there. They’re just so cool and nice and super talented, and they really made us feel like we were a part of the celebration.

Sam looked absolutely stunning from head to toe, from her gorgeous Marchesa gown to her cool Nicholas Kirkwood heels, and Adam very dapper indeed in his Dunhill suit. What with Sam and Adam – and a lot of their guests – being fashion designers, the coolness factor was definitely very high in this wedding! :D

No matter how many weddings I shoot at the Andaz, it seems that there are always new spaces to discover. This time, after ceremony in the Fenchurch room, the wedding breakfast was held at the Studio, which looked absolutely stunning, not least because of the gorgeous flowers by Scarlet & Violet (oh and the cake, by Maki’s Cakes, was pretty stunning too).

After dinner the party continued in the Temple. It was really nice to bump into familiar DJs, the Wedding Smashers, once again. These guys really do know how to rock a house!

A million thanks Sam and Adam for making us feel like we were a part of your super cool ‘family’! I know the ash cloud provided you with some extra days on honeymoon, which you totally deserved! :D

Sam & Adam | First glimpse

April 13, 2010 · 5 Comments

I’m almost done editing Sam & Adam’s lovely lovely (no really, lovely) London wedding, but I’m off to Finland tomorrow, so will have to continue on my return next week otherwise I’ll never get packing in time. There’s much more wedding goodness in store as well, including Rachel & Ben’s gorgeous hill top Oxford wedding, but all in good time.

In case you need me during the next five days, I’ll be checking my emails where I can, but most likely, unless your matter is super urgent, I’ll get back to you next week.

Sarah & Paul | Wedding

March 24, 2010 · 18 Comments

What made Sarah & Paul’s Andaz Liverpool Street wedding a little bit different from the others we’re doing there this year, was that their ceremony was held at the OBE Chapel of St. Paul’s Cathedral. I felt very privileged being able to photograph a wedding at such a prestigious venue, and despite the challenges it presented (the Chapel is underground in the crypt with no light, and photography during the ceremony is restricted) it really was an amazing experience!

I love the Gallery at the Andaz, the light there is always so lovely, no matter what time of year. It’s also fun to see how different spaces within the hotel transform to serve different functions. For example, Sarah & Paul’s wedding breakfast took place in the Bishopsgate room, which looked completely transformed from last time when we where there for a ceremony.

I do have to mention that Susanna was on fire during the reception of this wedding, she got so many lovely shots that I had a hard time narrowing the selection down! I think after the long dark winter of her being consigned to lighting duties during receptions, she was seriously itching to get behind the camera – and it shows.

Lastly, I have to say thank you to Sarah and Paul. It was a priviledge to be a part of your beautiful day!

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

Fiona & Peter | Engagement

November 3, 2009 · 16 Comments

October was all about the engagement shoots. I did so many that my head got a bit dizzy. Now in November I actually have at least a couple of well-deserved weekends off (woo!) until my weddings pick up again in December.

For Fiona and Pete’s engagement session we tried to think of something a bit different from the standard wandering-around-the-streets-approach. I got the idea of using the spaces at Andaz Liverpool Street, as there are so many different nooks and crannies with completely different atmospheres, and kindly we got a permission from the hotel to do our little shoot there. In the end I think that all the logistics and organising that went with this shoot possibly made it a bit more highly strung than the average engagement shoot, so I think in the future I’ll be sticking to the old trusted wandering model. But still, once we got going, we did have a blast shooting our way through the hotel.

Thanks so much Fiona and Pete for your patience on the day. Not long to go until the wedding and I for one am really looking forward to it!

Andaz Summer Garden Launch Party

June 28, 2009 · 1 Comment

I’ve had a bit of a break from weddings this weekend, but I’ve still kept pretty busy. On Friday I was photographing the launch party of the Summer Garden at Andaz Liverpool Street. It was a bit of an unusual event for me to cover, but I do love the venue and have more weddings to shoot there in the future, which I’m really looking forward to. What I loved most about Friday night’s do though? All the lush pink details everywhere! Who could have guessed eh…. :D

Stephanie & Rob – Portraits | Wedding

April 3, 2009 · Leave a Comment

We have finally come to the last instalment from this wedding. There wasn’t much time to take portraits of Steph and Rob, but we did manage to sneak out from the Temple into one of the beautiful stairwells of the Andaz for a few shots. Just how gorgeous is Steph!

With this, I’d like to once again thank Stephanie and Rob for letting me be a part of this beautiful and special wedding. I wish you guys have as gorgeous a life together as your wedding day was!

Stephanie & Rob – The Temple | Wedding

April 2, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Now then, you remember how I was saying this was a challenging venue to work in. You might have been wondering where exactly the challenge was. Let me introduce The Temple. Yes, the Andaz boasts a century old Masonic Temple, now thought to be grandest in England, with Grade II listed marble and mahogany. When the hotel was sold for refurbishment it was so run-down the previous owners had never discovered the temple as it was boarded behind a fake wall. Some believe Jack the Ripper was a Mason and would have attended this temple as it was closest to his hunting ground.

But yes, a temple with walls made out of dark marble, no windows, no artificial light sources, just candles. I could hardly see anything through the viewfinder! My assistant did an awesome job running around with an off camera flash, without her I don’t think there would be any pictures to show.

Stephanie & Rob – Champagne reception | Wedding

April 2, 2009 · Leave a Comment

After the ceremony, there was a champagne reception at the Gallery, which is a stunning modern space with an enormous glass roof and that funky circular atrium you saw in the test pictures. It’s a bit of a shock to the system to move through the different areas of the Andaz, it’s like jumping back and forth through time. I hope you’re not getting bored with the pictures from this wedding, still two instalments to come!

Stephanie & Rob – Ceremony | Wedding

April 1, 2009 · 2 Comments

The ceremony of Steph & Rob’s wedding took place in the Fenchurch room of Andaz Liverpool Street. It was a gorgeous setting, with rose pedals and candle light creating a romantic atmosphere. Even though I was there to work, even I got a bit emotional at some point!

Stephanie & Rob – Getting ready | Wedding

March 29, 2009 · 4 Comments

I’m going to process (and blog) Steph & Rob’s wedding in separate instalments. Since the day was quite clearly divided into separate sections – and spaces – it makes it easier to attack the processing in batches. So here’s the first instalment, where Steph is getting ready for the big day.

The wedding was a total blast, but I’ll tell more about in the future posts. I’ve been sitting in front of the computer pretty much all day now and could really use a break… So, watch this space! :D

P.S. I just had to add, thank you so much to my wonderful assistant/second shooter, who was absolutely indispensable in this difficult venue (as you will find out in later instalments!), and also, thank you so much to Steph and Rob for letting us share your day with you!

Testing, testing…

March 26, 2009 · Leave a Comment



So I went back to the Andaz today to finally meet face-to-face with Steph and Rob. Had a bit of a panic as first when I was told their room reservation had been cancelled! Turned out that it was someone else under the same name… :D They are such a lovely couple and everything about their wedding is just so cool and relaxed and fun. We walked around the hotel and tried out some interesting looking spots. Some spaces are just brilliant with lots of natural light, while others, where as equally stunning, very dark. So I will have to really think about how to work around that. But yeah, really looking forward to Saturday now!
