I'll be exhibiting at the Langdon Court Wedding Fair on Sunday 28th February. I love photographing weddings at Langdon Court - it's a beautiful old manor house in lovely gardens just down the road from a gorgeous church and beach at Wembury.
Do come along and say Hi. The Fair is open from 1-4pm and I'll have loads of images on display and several client albums for your to peruse.
Oh, and if you book your wedding on the day I have a great freebie for you.
Look forward to meeting you.

I was passing by the Catholic Cathedral in the centre of Saigon last week when I came across no less than 4 wedding shoots going on. It's peak wedding season in SE Asia and the B&G always have a pre-wedding shoot at photogenic locations. Images from these sessions are blown up and displayed around the wedding reception venue. These are full on fashion shoots with make-up/hair stylists, lighting, assistants etc.

The wedding ceremonies themselves also comprise of many set-up photos with the wedding 'stage' lit up with studio lights etc. Wedding photojournalism is not yet in fashion here!

The 'middle classes' spend about 3 times more in real terms than we do in the UK on their weddings and wedding photography.

2009 has been a fabulous year for me. I have been photographing weddings all over Devon and Cornwall and have met so many lovely couples and their families and friends. I have had so much pleasure working in many of the beautiful churches, country house hotels, villages and beaches that we have down here. Every Saturday has been a joy and I have returned home buzzing from a successful and fun day.

Thanks to everyone who invested and trusted in me to deliver them a set of wonderful images to treasure for ever. It's been a pleasure. And many thanks to Mag who has contributed fabulously as my second photographer. Here is a slideshow of my personal favourites from 2009. Click the play button, bottom left to start.

I'm off travelling in Asia at the beginning of the New Year, returning for my first wedding of 2010 on Valentine's weekend. My best wishes for a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year to all of you.

Wow, what a great day on Sunday for Julie and Duncan's wedding at the Royal Chapel of St. Katherine-upon-the-Hoe in the The Royal Citadel in Plymouth. The Citadel is the home of 29 Commando Regiment Royal Artillery where Duncan was based a while ago.
Their family and friends came down from the Leeds area and even further up North for a lovely gathering in the crisp winter sun. Julie was smiles all day especially when it was just her and her new husband together out on Plymouth Hoe basked by a romantic setting sun.
