my last 3 weddings …….
July 3, 2010
…… have all asked for additional albums for other members of the family . This is fantastic news as it means that they must really have loved the originals.
It may sound simple putting pictures in an album but I personally design each page and spend hours on the finer details until each one stands up as a mini work of art in its own right.
Thankfully those efforts are worth the while and appreciated by my brides and grooms.
Sally and Dean’s wedding ….
June 13, 2010
on the 12th June was a really happy event. The sun shined and they were surrounded by family and friends with a beautiful bride, some lovely cute children and wild wild women determined to enjoy themselves whatever. As for the guys- well England were playing their first World cup – need i say more!!.
Triss and Kelly….
March 29, 2010
…….had a wedding with a navy theme to it -befitting that they are both from Plymouth , a town of obvious naval tradition. Kelly was a stunning bride making her way to HMS Drake where her goom, Triss, waited in full uniform at the church.
The Chaplain led an emotional service before the party moved onto the Royal Yacht club overlooking the Hoe at Plymouth to continue the celebration with a wedding breakfast and evening reception. The weather was wet and with a cold wind blowing across the sea the opportunity for outside photographs was restricted but we still got some lovely shots.
The Bride and Groom were rarely without a smile on their face all day and this set the tone for a good family celebration. There were many sore heads the following day.
Congratulations Guys – lets hope that life is ” plain sailing” from hereon:
The beginning of the year…

is always slowish for weddings but I am fortunate to have some good corporate clients who are keeping the work coming in. The only slight disadvantage is that client confidentiality means that I cant blog too much here.
I have been putting an album together of a wedding at Buckfast Abbey from about 3 weeks ago and thought i would share a photograph of the ceiling above the alter. The area below is restricted to members of the public but the Priest kindly agreed to me setting up a shot. It doesnt really fit into the wedding album but I am sure you will apreciate why I couldnt resist taking the Photograph

……had asked for some shots in the studio but we ventured down to the bay afterwards as Teignmouth has so much to offer any photographer :
Feeling a little heavy headed…
February 5, 2010
so i went for a walk along the sea front to get some lovely sea air and bumped into John who was celebrating the birth of his first child just 2 hours previous. Congratulations to John and his good lady ( didnt catch a name ) . If you are reading this john I would be delighted to pop along and take a pic of the happy parents and your new born as my way of saying congrats. If you want a copy of this then let me know. Colour is available -but i liked the black and white

Tony and Madeline live …
January 28, 2010
in Worcester at the moment but have been trying to move down to Buckfast for some time as they just love the area . When they married, their dream was to marry in Buckfastleigh Abbey and they did just that. Tony admitted in his wedding speech that he met Madeline through a singles club that he started through his local church. Reading between the lines he looked through all of the ladies that applied, chose the best for himself and then wound it down. He claims it was at the request of his local priest but…..
A lovely couple these are a few of their photographs from a wettish and coldish day . Congratulations to you both



…as we all do and strode along the promenade at teignmouth with my tripod and camera in hand enjoying the early morning frost when i saw these ladies getting into their boat to undertake a training session. Rather them than me.
I promised to post the photographs that they kindly let me take of them :



if i could take some photographs of their 4 beautiful daughters.
The trouble was that the girls wont accept that nature has blessed them with beauty but were insistant that ” only shoot my right side”, ” dont let my teeth show”, “can you photoshop out spots?”
Please judge for yourselves
