Finishing off this total overshare of Josie and David’s wedding with an image of me on the dance floor with the groom, because although my contract may say I stay until just after the first dance, I promise you if that dance floor is full, I’m staying! And of course that means getting involved in the spirit of the day and helping my couples celebrate too! Being involved in the moment often means your guests won’t notice me capturing their best moves either! Image taken by my

It’s no secret that I adore this venue! @jacksbarnkent has to be one of my ultimate favourite venues in Kent! Not only is it an amazing team behind it, but it’s a complete blank (but beautiful) canvas for you to create your day! From a photographers point of view, it ticks all the boxes! The aesthetics, the colours, the shadows, the architecture and most of all, the feeling it gives the guests! Here are the amazing suppliers that made this day what it was; Second shooter @dan

Finding the couples that align with me!

Finding the couples that align with me!

In business they say you should only put out the content that you want to attract… so this is me calling out to all fun, relaxed, full of life couples that don’t take themselves too seriously, who want their day captured in a similar way. The couples that want the REAL them photographed, with a photographer who they feel completely comfortable with and 100% trust to do their thing, because when that happens, magic really is created! I adore this couple 💖 #kentweddingphotogra

It’s finally time to share (and I mean totally overshare) the incredible wedding of @david_frazer and @josephineericaa. This was an absolute highlight for me last year so I apologise now that your feed may be completely consumed by these beauties over the next week or so! I just can’t get enough of them! I knew from the moment I met Josie and David, that they were my kind of people and let me tell you, this wedding was what a photographers dreams are made of! The most joyful,

The best mother of the bride speech at The Glass House Kent wedding

The best mother of the bride speech at The Glass House Kent wedding

When the groom is known as Mary Poppins because he’s such a dream with everything home and kids, and the mother of the bride (with the best sense of humour there is) uses this nickname to her full advantage for her speech… measured him up for all his qualities, he’s confirmed as practically perfect in every way and is sealed with a spoon full of sugar (in alcohol form) to wrap up her incredible speech! That’s not a bad seal of approval from your new MIL at all is it! #practic

Kids at weddings absolutely make a wedding if you ask me!!

Kids at weddings absolutely make a wedding if you ask me!!

Kids at weddings absolutely make a wedding if you ask me!! The fun, laughter and mischief that they get up to adds so much to the day! And it’s probably because I’m a total kid at heart and also that family photography is my main jam, that I just love teaming up with them, setting them cheeky little challenges, and just getting them comfortable and ‘on side’ that allows them to completely authentically then show their real little smiles and laughter for the camera, which I ju

Capturing these as one of the first things I do when I arrive at the venue and bride prep is always my favourite way of getting into the groove of the day and knowing first hand how much time and thought my couples put into all their details, it’s only right I capture every little (and big) thing I can for them! #kentweddingphotographer #weddingphotography #weddingphotographerkent #weddinfphotographykent #thebullwrothamweddings #thebullwrotham #theglasshousekent #theglasshous

That post ceremony time has to be one of my faves!

That post ceremony time has to be one of my faves! The freshly married couple are on such a high, the drinks are flowing, the kids are let loose and the conversation and laughter is alive! It’s also usually a time that the group shots are scheduled in but I always insist on you having at least 20 minutes for this chapter to happen naturally. Everyone is desperate to congratulate the married couple too which is such a pleasure to photograph Venue- @crescentturnerwhitstable Se

That's a wrap on the 2022 wedding season for me!

I’ve officially completed the 2022 wedding season!! And what a wonderful year it was too! Still so many gorgeous weddings to share with you all on here though! I’m forever prioritising my couples, and focusing on delivering the galleries so my Insta definitely takes a back seat during wedding season, I’ve been lucky enough to never have had to proactively advertise my services, so this platform is more of a portfolio for me to look back on and share with you all Shot, edited

A few more special moments from Karina and Reece’s wedding day back in July at Broome Park Hotel near Canterbury. Also the year that no editing on the green from the grass was needed, with the drought creating the most beautiful golden brown tones! #mrandmrspugh #broomeparkwedding #broomeparkhotelwedding #jodiedonovanweddings #newleysweds #marriedinkent #kentweddingphotographer #kentwedding #gettingmarriedinkent #kentweddingplanning

Taking a moment to step back, pause and take it all in on your wedding day is always something I remind my couples to do, or incorporate into your ‘couple time’, and what a beautiful moment this one was! We ventured off onto the golf course at @broomeparkhotel to capture some gorgeous sunset images, and on the way back this backdrop was just screaming for a shot! #kentweddingphotographer #broomeparkwedding #broomepark #broomeparkgolfclub #broomeparkgolfandcountryclub #mrandmr
