Amanda and Bill 20th March 2010

I’m ashamed to say that I never got round to posting the images from Amanda and Bill’s wedding in March of last year.  2010 was a year of change and was mad, panic busy on top. Amanda and Bill’s wedding was one of those days where, even with great planning, things go a little awry.  [...]

A nice video story….

So I’ve been ranting on recently – not without just cause – about videographers.  I’ve had some challenging times this year with them. So I was interested to find out what it would be like to work with Tom at Silk Wedding Videos this last Saturday at Shampa and Mike’s wedding at The Barton Grange [...]

Kirsty and Russ

Just posting this picture from Kirsty and Russ’s wedding in August. I like the image and the treatment of it.  It was a lovely wedding at St. John’s Church with Lytham Green and it’s windmill as a backdrop for their couple shots.  This picture was the one they chose for their thankyou cards.  And they’re really [...]

The White Church Wedding Fair – 2nd October 2010

I’ve always been a big fan of The White Church at Fairhaven.  Not just because its a great building and a visually interesting backdrop for a wedding.  I like it because of the minister there.  David Phillips.  He is a minister of the ‘letting’ variety - someone who will, if you are a well behaved photographer, let you [...]

Videographers and vicars.

I shot a couple of weddings recently alongside some videographers and I have a tale to tell you.  One of the selling points for Fotoamour is our lack of presence – in other words, we’re unobtrusive.  I go to great pains not to get in the way, to be discreet and to be part of [...]

Izzy and Lawrence 24th July 2010

I did a wedding a couple of weeks ago for a lovely young couple, Izzy and Lawrence.   The men were all dressed up in kilts because there was a strong Scottish connection.  I had photographed in St. Mary and St. Michael’s Church in Garstang earlier this year and the reception was at one of my [...]

A Good Car Company

Just want to tell you about a car company that I work with often. Every time I do I’m struck by what a great service they give their customers and how easy they are to work with. David Brooks is the bloke who runs it, I think, along with the support of his wife and [...]

Article in The Times #2

Another cracking article in The Times On Saturday ‘Vicars to treat wedding guests as their dearly beloved’  (page 24).  The basic message of the piece is that The Church of England are telling its ministers to have a more welcoming and friendly attitude to wedding guests.  Does this also extend to wedding photographers? I have [...]

Article in The Times #1

Great article in Friday’s Times by Joanna Pitman regarding the photography of children.  One of my most favourite  children’s photographers, Sally Mann, is shortly to have an exhibition at The Photographer’s Gallery in London and if you have the opportunity please go and have a look.  Her photography is simply wonderful – delicate and imbued with [...]

Happy Birthday to Me!

Twenty five years old today – making me possibly the youngest mother in history.  We can but dream!
