Emirates Stadium | A London Engagement Session

It was absolutely freezing, my feet were numb and my fingers felt like they were about to drop off. We arrived at the Emirates Stadium in London for the engagement session of Leanne and Arsenal lover Rich.
Leanne & Rich found themselves delayed on the trains and so myself and Mr Lawrence headed into a cute little roadside cafe for some hot chocolate & toast to warm us up {was just perfect!} 

Rochester, Kent Engagement Session with Jade & Graham

This session was a photographers dream. Having never been to Rochester other then passing through I had no real idea of the beauty this place holds. It was honestly awesome. I loved it.
The couple had scoured some cool locations to shoot at a week or so before which made the shoot seem like a breeze. I met with them outside Rochester Cathedral and from there they took me on a little tour of the town stopping off at a lovely {warm!} coffee shop for a yummy hot chocolate to warm us up. It was literally freezing, but you wouldn't think it from the photos. Jade & Graham are complete naturals!

It's shoots like these that make me love my job. Thank-you guys for allowing me to capture your love for each other, it was lots of fun!

FREE Trash/Treasure The Dress Shoot | Thurrock Wedding Photograher

For some time now I have wanted to explore different avenues within Wedding Photography and push some boundaries to keep my creative juices flowing. I want to try some new ideas {well, new to me} and see how I get on. 

Something I am quite intrigued with is 'First Look Photography' it is quite common in the US and other area's of the world and I believe it can add something extra special to your day. The first look is when the bride and groom see each other for the first time before the ceremony - some say this is bad luck but fortunately, that is just a myth. Now, traditionally the bride walks towards the groom and they share that magical 'first look' moment with all of their guests .. which is in itself totally amazing BUT .. if they were to share that moment alone perhaps the reactions would be far greater.
