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.

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!

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.

Lord’s Cricket Ground Wedding

By London Wedding Photographer, Wedding VenuesNo Comments

Lord’s Cricket Ground Wedding

There’s probably no denying that a Lord’s Cricket Ground wedding is something special. Unlike a great many usual or iconic wedding venues, the world’s oldest and most famous ground aka “the home of cricket” is only available a select amount of times a year. Add to this the fact that you and your guests will get exclusive access to the England dressing rooms, members bar and the renowned Long Room for both ceremony and reception celebrations, all makes for a wedding with a difference.

Lords_Cricket_Ground_Wedding

You don’t need to be a cricket fan to appreciate the ambience, views and general Victorian splendour of a ground world renowned since 1814. However for those with a love or interest of the sport, during a Lords cricket ground wedding your guests can have a complimentary guided tour of the cricket museum and grounds before the wedding day breakfast.

 The most famous part of Lords is the Pavilion stand built in 1889 and grade 2 listed. It’s here that houses the splendid Long Room through which cricketers on match day walk through and back on their way to the crease. Decorating the walls is a fantastic selection of cricket related paintings, and an unprecedented view of the cricket pitch and stands. The members bar behind the Long Room is impressive in its own right and perfect for that “restorative” tipple!

Goring Hotel Wedding Photographer

By London Wedding Photographer, Wedding Venues5 Comments

Goring Hotel Wedding Photographer

As a Goring Hotel wedding photographer it is a particular pleasure to know the pedigree and history of the place you are working in. Close to Buckingham Palace it has been run by the Goring family for over a hundred years and has frequently played host to Royalty, prime ministers, stars and the discerning, most recently Kate Middleton the night before her wedding to William. Well the Royalty in attendance for us this special occasion was Sally and Paul, a lovely couple, but no relation to the Windsors!

Goring Hotel Wedding Photographer

Many newlyweds who wish to add a touch of London sparkle and history choose the Goring for their reception venue. Some however also elect to have their ceremony itself in the intimate but lovely interior of the hotel, and this was certainly the case for Sally and Paul.

Wedding at the Goring Hotel London

Sally stayed the night herself in preparation at the hotel while Paul arrived on the day. First task for David and Joanna (that’s us by the way….) was to see how Sally was getting on in her room with twin sister and chief bridesmaid Lucy. After a series of “prep” shots to start telling the story of the big day, we shot some wonderfully atmospheric images in the light filled corridor outside her room. After a while David went looking for Paul and best man Richard for the “boys” pics.

And so it went on for the day, a division of labour between ourselves. Whether it is being in two different places at once, covering the same spaces from different angles and view points (i.e the ceremony) or just ourselves as a couple photographing a couple, with all the understanding that brings, two is most certainly greater than one….

UPDATE: After reading this blog post Paul and Sally sent us the following email:

“Hi David & Joanna,

We’ve just sat down and watched the DVD’s – all we can say is WOW!

You have captured every possible moment of our special day and given us permanent reminders of so many fantastic memories.

So a very big “thank you” from us both. Also many thanks for creating the pics with Lucy.

With best regards,

Paul & Sally

PS – We love the blog!!”

Claridges Hotel Wedding Photographer

By London Wedding Photographer, Wedding VenuesNo Comments

Claridges Hotel Wedding Photographer

It seems that as a Claridges Hotel wedding photographer we are following around Gordon Ramsay managed in house restaurants at the moment! See our separate blog post about the SAVOY: Savoy Hotel Wedding Photographers to understand what we mean by that, and of course check out some of our work at other iconic central London hotels in the blog.

Claridges Hotel Wedding Photographer

Sometimes it happens that as busy London wedding photographers we will invariably work with couples in the public eye or sensitive employment positions. With that in mind if you would like to see some specific Claridges wedding photos then please email or use the contact page and we will be happy to send some. (Normally you would see specific examples on a blog post!) Chances are though that you will see from the examples in our galleries, or the many images contained in this blog the kind of quality you can expect from ourselves David and Joanna as your Time Out Recommended wedding photographers. For this reason the photo above is actually from a recent wedding at The Goring Hotel London – Kate Middleton’s pre wedding venue.

Claridges Hotel Wedding Photos

On the subject of Claridges, it had a rich and varied history, and for those that are interested: it is David Beckham’s favourite London Hotel when he’s back in his home town. Claridges started as a hotel with just a single house run by William and Marianne Claridge, but by it’s official opening during 1856 (in the basic form it is today) they had bought a further five properties around it!
