Jess and Jake’s Southend Barns Secret Garden Summer Wedding
The sun was certainly shining on Jess and Jake’s Southend Barns wedding day as they tied the knot in the Secret Garden, surrounded by the love and warmth radiating from their guests.
They both looked stunning amid their mellow summer colour scheme of sage for the bridesmaids holding peachy bouquets beautifully arranged by Bridal Flowers Direct. Whilst the touch of red in the groom and groomsmen’s dapper outfits from Astares injected a dedicated nod to their favourite football team!
This couple were incredibly grateful for the love and contributions of their friends and family and the great team of people around them who helped make their dream day come true.
Jess and Jake summed up their special day as “magical, joyful and beautiful”. It undoubtedly was.

Over 20 years of passion and experience plus a few lovely shiny awards to boot…
I’ve been involved in award winning wedding photography since I was 17. I shot my first wedding at 19 and became fully qualified a year later – so I come with over 20 years of experience.
I’ve always loved the photographic art form as a way of preserving important moments in peoples’ lives. In regards to human storytelling there is almost nothing more beautiful than a wedding day; family and friends coming together to share in the love of a couple is something so unique. Being there to capture these moments, working under pressure with some amazing and talented people is something I feel very passionate about. Real life, real love.
After having won UK Wedding Photographer of the Year and Avant-garde Wedding Photographer of the Year I took the plunge and set up my own business in 2011. My award-winning images (below) showcase the quirky side of my style but if you are looking for something a little more universal then you’ll be pleased to hear that ‘I do’ romantic too!

Laura and Ben's Autumnal Southend Barns Wedding
I was absolutely thrilled to be asked to photograph Laura and Ben's special day and had really looked forward to it after having had such a great time at their engagement shoot a year earlier. This adorable couple demonstrated their creativity and love of autumn through the use of smoke bombs at both their engagement session and throughout their wedding day at the beautiful Southend Barns in West Sussex. Although there were a few showers as the day progressed, we worked with it and it added a new spin to their images. Using the bombs was certainly fun and truly memorable; we all laughed as Ben's two best men ran around wafting smoke and trying to discern the wind direction! There was a nod to the changing leaves picked up in the warm yellows of the smoke as our couple shared a cosy, poignant moment underneath their sunlight splashed umbrella.
