Fanhams Hall Wedding Photographer

Fanhams Hall Wedding Photographers

As frequent Fanhams Hall Wedding Photographers we always look forward to returning to one of Ware’s greatest assets. Inside it is a fantastic and tasteful mix of the old and the new. Glass and steel is imaginatively mixed with oak panelling and leaded windows. Outside, the grounds feel like they have been made for Hertfordshire wedding photographers! They are large, varied and beautiful come rain shine or snow. We should know having photographed them in all three! Thankfully not on the same day though. A typical English day and also a typically quirky time weather wise for Kristy and Alun’s wedding featured here, and also Laura and David and Jenny and Dan’s from this March 2014. A little bit of rain, gusty wind, cloud and then periods of brilliant sunshine. It’s all in days work for David and Joanna then….

Personally we love the fountains and iron gates, the Japanese gardens and bridges and the imposing backdrop of Fanhams itself which lends historical class to any wedding taking place there. Every time we return we find something new and fresh for photography there.

The building itself is eighteen century in origin and built in the famous Queen Anne style. It was the birth place and home of Lord Croft and has also been the residence for branches of the Brockett family. As Brockett Hall wedding photographers we would be hard pressed to choose which of the two would be our favourite. Either would be an excellent choice for a wedding day.

St Tropez Wedding Photographer

Hotel La Tartane wedding

Beautiful beautiful St Tropez….Although the majority of our work is as London wedding photographers, its great to travel too. We are asked mostly by UK couples living abroad, or those planning a special destination venue for their big day. On those especially memorable weekends like this one, we can say we are a St Tropez wedding photographer…for two days.

Colin originally from north London and Ali Scottish born and bred both now live in Holland. They had scoured Europe for their perfect wedding destination and came across the Saint Amour La Tartane in St Tropez: ( La Tartane St Tropez )

The couple decided the most important thing for them was to spend as much quality time with their friends and families as possible. With that goal in mind they booked out the entire 5 star La Tartane Hotel for themselves. Everything from the preparations, ceremony to the asian themed evening reception happened at the hotel, with the focus being around the lovely petal strewn pool!

Central London Weddings

Central London Weddings

Cavendish Square Wedding

“Hi David and Joanna, the pictures are absolutely amazing!” This is the kind of email feedback that makes London wedding photography so rewarding for myself and Joanna, This was from Hanieh and Sia featured in this blog post, one of six central London weddings that we had the pleasure of photographing in the month of December. Their wedding started at 4.30 pm at 5 Cavendish Square  (5 Cavendish Square ) and our first task was to photograph them around the historic square in the dark, in the alloted 15 minutes we had. Experience, pre planning, good lighting and technique allowed us to surpass what we were all aiming to achieve.

So with fifteen minutes outside and ten minutes inside we were given the usual amount of time that were are used to shoot “couple” shots in a a typical wedding timescale. These are the  kind of photos that feature quite heavily in our galleries and website. The rest of the time we are shooting in a contemporary documentary style, which looks easy but to truely do well takes a lot of experience!

After a busy time for us photographing reportage style the champagne reception afterwards. we all headed for the main reception Vanilla ( Vanilla ). Vanilla is a fantastic, discreet and glamourous venue. Quality food and drink flowed in abundance, and the endlessly motivated staff there work tirelessly to make an evening run smoothly.

Greek Wedding Photographer London – Saint Sophia Cathedral Bayswater

By London Wedding Photographer, Wedding VenuesOne Comment

Greek Wedding Photographer London

Well we have spent some happy and memorable times at Saint Sophia’s in Bayswater, both as a Greek wedding photographer and also as guests for friend’s christenings and weddings.
Classic Greek Wedding London

David has had a long association with the Greek Cypriot community, from meeting his best friend Andreas at school to subsequently working in his father Costas’s Greek Restaurant as a teenager. He also ran a business in association with the Niarchos family throughout the 1990’s. Joanna on the other hand just likes a good moussaka! Yasou!

The lovely and lucky couple at Saint Sophia this day were Maria and Dimitri. We knew each other well from our previous engagement shoot in Trent Park, and had planned together far in advance for the tight timescale we had. Armed with our London professional photography licence for the day, we headed the short distance to Hyde Park for our couple shots. It’s a busy place so it is as much about relaxing your newly weds to get great shots, as it is dealing with the general public to let us use the areas they are eating their picnics on! We cleared a lot of wrappers and coke cans away for the shot below.

Hampstead Wedding Photographer

Hampstead Wedding Photographer

There is no denying that Hampstead is a great place to live, work and visit. We should know as we have done all three of those things over the years. As a Hampstead wedding photographer we love the look, variety and history of the place.

So as well as eating drinking and sleeping there at various points in our lives, we are regularly walking our dogs and children across the heath and around Kenwood House.   Kenwood, Burgh House (off New End) or one of the boroughs varied churches and hotels are greatplaces for a Hampstead wedding ceremony or reception.

There are also some lovely hidden spots for those special couple focused wedding shots. If you can spare twenty to twenty-five minutes during the wedding day timetable then we can use our experience and creativity to work our magic. We have included shots from a typical example of this in the blog post, all of which were photographed in Hampstead.

love in the air Hampstead

If you are interested in booking a Hampstead wedding photographer and hiring a fantastic looking venue then you may wish to take a look at Kenwood House or Burgh House through the two following links: Kenwood and Burgh House

A little bit of history: Hampstead has always been home to artists, actors, musicians and the well healed of London. In fact now Hampstead apparently has more millionaires per square metre than anywhere else in the United Kingdom. However the price of a coffee in Hampstead village is still very reasonable, unlike Saint Tropez where we did a wedding recently! The wonderful heath is one of the largest and most beautiful open spaces in London and along with the village has been the location for countless films including American Werewolf in London and Notting Hill.
