Soho. A Very Cool Couple. Smithfields meat market and a boutique hotel in Clerkenwell..what a way to end a brilliantly diverse year with a brilliantly diverse wedding. Emily & Steve are reading this blog in SE Asia on their 6 month RTW honeymoon so I have included an extra large portion of my favourites and a slideshow with travel inspired soundtrack below.
I started the day in Soho with Steve and his mates in a pub with a shaggy dog before a wonderfully cool ceremony at the Soho hotel and whilst the guests took a magical mystery tour on a route master me, Emily and Steve headed to Smithfields (where Emily and Steve got engaged) for some fun and relaxed shots before catching up with their guests at a hotel in Clerkenwell. photos by me and music by Gomez...enjoy
to celebrate the launch of my new and improved blog I thought it a good idea to feature some of my favourite blogs of the last 2 years in retrospect......first up its ian and sammy from 2010 a wedding that has been since been featured on the brilliant rock n roll bride blog (hit badge in the sidebar for the feature)
"I am so lucky to enjoy my job and look forward to every wedding as a fresh challenge, but I must admit that ian and sammy's wedding was one that I had really been looking forward to since we met at their soho venue the century club earlier in the year. just as I try to bring a different approach to my wedding photography, ian and sammy brought a different approach to their wedding day with fantastic outfits, venues and quirky additions throughout the day! the day started at the dean street townhouse in soho before the ceremony at london's most iconic registry office the old marylebone townhall and then a routemaster to a roof top reception overlooking shaftesbury avenue. amazing. again so hard to pick, but some of the shots we took out and about on brewer street are some of my favourite ever (look out for bride and groom being congratulated by a lady working the peep show entrance) . photos by me and music by nick cave....enjoy"
shaftesbury avenues exclusive century club played host to caroline and jons big day. its fantastic open air roof terrace gives a great birds eye view of the busy central london streets below and allows guests to dance under the moonlight until the early hours. the weather held all day and caroline simply did not stop smiling from start to finish. thanks to bride, groom, guests and even jim the doorman for all being such good sports and letting me capture the fun, emotion and merrymaking as it happened. photos by me and music by al green....enjoy
