Nepal – Kathmandu II

From Swayumnunath we headed into the city to Durbar Square and to Boudnath, the world’s biggest buddhist Stupa.

This weekend we celebrated our 17 year date-aversary.

If you know us already, you know we got together at a music festival and that solidified both our shared love of live music, and our general fondness for each other ☺️

Having Download Festival fall over our anniversary weekend seemed somewhat fortuitous so here’s a gratuitous selection of selfies from our weekend.

It may be a bit self indulgent, but if i can’t share my love for this fine human of mine on here, then where else?

Long may we festival together with grey hair and walkers and our hearing aids turned up to 11.

One of the messages I most love receiving are from our old wedding couples who a few years down the line have gone through some life changes and want some new and improved family pictures.

We shot Temi and Brian’s wedding in Paternoster in the Western Cape many moons ago, so getting to shoot them as a family of 4 now in London was so incredible!

I always fall a bit in love with the couples we shoot - I mean how can you share such a joyous and magical time with people and not?! So getting to reconnect a few years down the line is just so special 🥰

Sometimes the simplest photos hold the most emotion.

There was a time not so long ago when wedding photography was all about the big hero shots. Where scenery was almost more important than the couple.

I would be lying if I said we didn’t succumb to that trend too, and took some great “wow” pictures.

We still love taking those, but I am also such a big fan of the simple, real and emotional pictures. Where the focus is all about the love and the feeling. These pictures are never our most popular on the old IG, but I love them and I reckon that’s reason enough to share them 🥰

Just popping up a quick little pic of these babes.

Just popping up a quick little pic of these babes. We’re currently on holiday in Malta, but I’m feeling the pressure and fear that Instagram will forget who I am 🤣 oh the joys of running a business and never being able to turn your brain off!

Crazy to think it was four years ago we were in the Namibian desert shooting these babes before their gorgeous wedding in the sand dunes. One of the perks of camping with the whole wedding party pre wedding is getting to sneak out your couple for some star photos 🥰

Weddings will always have our hearts, but we love

Weddings will always have our hearts, but we love taking on a small amount of family and life work between weddings.

So if you’re moving house, having a baby, getting a new puppy, or even just want some updated pics of you as a couple or your new start up - drop us a message!

We love sharing every new and exciting stage of life with you 🥰

I absolutely adore making black and white bride portraits.
There’s just something so timeless and arty about them that make them so fun to play around with and making something pretty with 🥰

So much happiness in one moment.

There’s something magical about when the sun hits the horizon line. This is actually one of our favourite times to shoot.

It’s a good chance to sneak away from your guests for a bit and enjoy the peace and calm before the reception really gets under way!

I love it when a community of women come together for their dear friend to make their wedding magical.

Sophie had the most wonderful women crew to share her day with and it was such a joy to spend the day with them and witness their deep love and support of each other.

Oh hey! It’s us!

This is a pretty old picture as despite being in the business of taking pictures, we are pretty rubbish at taking pictures of ourselves regularly.

I always wonder if anyone *really* cares when businesses do a “this is us” post, but whether you like it or not, here’s some random titbits about us.

We love watching bands together (probably because our romance started at a music festival).

We are big fans of all things vegan food and love exploring new vegan finds in London - of which there are no shortage!

Since moving to Victoria Park we head out there most days, primarily for dog watching if I’m honest, but sometimes also to skate and feed the ducks.

Andy’s currently obsessed with playing metalcore on his 7 string guitar (along with bass, 6 string guitar and the sitar we bought while in India) and solving the Rubik’s cube as quickly as he can.

When I’m not cuddling our matching kitty and bunny floofs I love falling down a random historical rabbit holes which I blame on my MA in ancient history. Current obsessions are mudlarking and the history of our area and East London in general.

Reading that back betrays our nerdy streak quite hard, but I guess that’s us 🥰

Do you have a dorky special interest?

There’s something just so undeniably romantic and heart melting when your person takes you by the hand.
Maybe it’s some kind of flashback to early romances when hand holding was the epitome of physical contact.
Or the trust and faith it puts in the other person and the confidence it give you.
Either way I love it.
Even now after being married for nearly 10 years I always melt when Andy takes my hand, which is why I think I love documenting it in others.
Even moreso when the simple act of handholding in some relationships is still not something that can be openly and safely done. When there’s a safe space to do it, it’s even more reason to celebrate it.
