Salmestone Grange Wedding Photography

Providing Donna & Dean's Salmestone Grange wedding photography was my first ever Valentine's day wedding, and I loved every minute of it. Dean and Donna had a fairly whirlwind courtship by all accounts, with Dean proposing to Donna on Valentine's day just a few short months after their first date, but if ever a couple [...]

Pegwell Bay Hotel Wedding Photography – Nikita and Michael

Pegwell Bay Hotel wedding photography One of the joys of living where I do is the opportunity to enjoy the beach and the sea views on a regular basis. Here in east Kent we are blessed with some very beautiful stretches of beach, and I love the chance to take my work out onto those [...]

Kenilworth Castle Engagement Photography

I'm so pleased that Laura and Simon chose Kenilworth Castle for their pre-wedding engagement photography. Laura and Simon's wedding was booked at Bleak House in Broadstairs, as Laura is from Thanet, so their pre-wedding photo shoot was an opportunity to have some photos in a location closer to home, that was also special to them. [...]

Broadstairs beach pre-wedding photoshoot – Nikita and Michael

The beach is a lovely place for a pre-wedding photoshoot, and one of my favourite places to be, so I was pleased when Michael and Nikita opted for a beach location for their pre-wedding shoot. Nikita and Michael opted to have a family photoshoot with their beautiful little daughter rather than a shoot for just [...]

Fiona and Mike: A Beach Pre-Wedding Shoot – Minnis Bay

Absolutely loved this pre-wedding photoshoot down on the beach at Minnis Bay with Fiona and Mike. I have to admit to being a total fan of evening sunlight, particularly for beach photo shoots, but after seeing the the colours and quality of light that these photos have, I could quickly become a fan of the [...]

Meet Jayden – Newborn baby photographer Kent

Sam and Becky | Relaxed Engagement Photography in Broadstairs

Met up with Sam and Becky for their engagement shoot in April last year, just a month before their wedding, and had just enough time to turn these gorgeous photos into a beautiful, personalised guest book for use on their wedding day! Their wedding will be next up on the blog, and I'll post a [...]

Family Pre-Wedding Beach Shoot: Kelly and Andy

Like many people, Kelly was understandably a little nervous at the thought of a pre-wedding photo shoot with the camera aimed at her and her fiance the whole time, so we decided to take the opportunity to turn it into a fun filled family shoot at the beach instead. I absolutely love how Kelly managed [...]

Mine! My Wedding Dress

Aargh! I'm SO excited to share this one with you, can you tell?!!! Can't believe it took me so many days to even think of the idea for it really, considering how few the things are that really make me think MINE in any kind of possessive way! You nearly had a picture of a [...]

Need a little Pampering?

As part of my plans to make this blog a useful reference point for brides who are planning their weddings, I've been out and about meeting all sorts of people and checking out their wedding related businesses. Some businesses really are totally wedding related, such as bridal gown shops, but others can be enjoyed by [...]

Abbots Barton Kent Wedding Photographer

Having just been at Abbots Barton Hotel in Canterbury yesterday to exhibit at their Wedding Fayre, I thought I would blog about Haylee and Tony's gorgeous wedding there which I photographed earlier in the summer. Meeting and photographing Haylee and Tony's beautiful summer wedding at Abbots Barton Hotel in Canterbury is probably one of the [...]

Kent Wedding Photographer Wedding Fayre

Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending a Wedding Fayre at The Burlington Hotel in Folkestone as an exhibitor of my Wedding Photography work. I love nothing better than being able to chat with prospective brides and grooms about their wedding day plans and their photography needs, so I have to admit that I thoroughly [...]

Kent Wedding Photography at the Pegwell Bay Hotel, Ramsgate

I was particularly pleased to be asked to photograph Alina and Lewis' wedding at the Pegwell Bay Hotel in Ramsgate for very personal reasons, as it's the hotel where my husband and I had our own wedding reception 20 years ago! Twenty years ago the hotel owners were incredibly helpful as I was planning a [...]

Dionne and AJ First Wedding Anniversary: Kent Wedding Photographer

30th July 2011 I had the absolute honour of photographing Dionne and AJ's beautiful wedding. The day was filled with emotional moments, from love to laughter, as you'll see in the wedding video I have put together. Being a wedding photographer in Kent has to be the best job! Dionne and AJ chose to get [...]

Like many couples who come to me for their pre-wedding shoot, Beckey and Dave were [...]

Growing up fast

Babies and children grow up so quickly, and sometimes it's hard to keep track of when they reached those all important milestones, or achieved that clever new skill. With the advent of smart phones, capturing some of those moments has got easier - but what do you do with with all those photos and video [...]

Say hello to Riley – Baby photography Kent

I recently spent a couple of hours with this young man, and a happier little chap you couldn't hope to meet! Once he'd got over his initial suspicion of the mad women crawling around the floor after him he was happy to show me all he could do, and oh boy was he active, VERY [...]

Meeting Noah – newborn baby photography kent

Meet Noah, everyone. Isn't he just gorgeous? He was just 12 days old when I took these, and he was determined to stay awake and not miss a thing for most of the morning, which gave me a chance to capture his beautiful big blue eyes. He did eventually have to give in and take [...]
