Finally, it seems that Spring has sprung! Last Saturday the sun was shining and cherry blossom was starting to make an appearance, as I drove up to Hammersmith to shoot a wedding in conjunction with the estimable Mr. Lloyd Dobbie.

the beautiful bride - Wedding at Ramster Chiddingfold

So, for my final (stills) wedding job of 2010 I was off to Ramster near Chiddingfold, Surrey, in the company of local colleague Andrew Dobell, to photograph the winter wedding of Eve and Chris. It was a very cold day, with snow on the ground, but the weather didn’t spoil the party – the blazing [...]

Richard & Lucy's wedding at Thornton Manor - photos by Chris Mann

Richard and Lucy’s wedding was at a venue slightly further afield than usual for me – Thornton Manor in The Wirral – but I always enjoy shooting at locations I haven’t been to before. My colleague Lloyd Dobbie and I drove up the night before so as to be ready to go first thing…

Dharmesh and Rhakhee at Eastbury Manor - photos by Chris Mann

Friday 13th – no problem! Dharmesh and Rhahkee obviously aren’t superstitious as that was the day set for their civil ceremony at historic Eastbury Manor house in Barking. Chanelle Segerius-Bruce and I teamed up again to shoot this one, and despite the attempts of the occasional rain-shower it was a happy and lively event.

The Rock’n'Roll Bride on the cost of wedding photography

Weddings

hands-and-bouquet

I don’t often link to articles on other blogs, but this is a thought-provoking article by Kat Williams (aka “the Rock’n’Roll Bride”) that’s worth a read – a discussion of why there can be such a wide range of prices charged for wedding photography. It has some useful insights that I’m sure will help many [...]

Whitney and Joe in London W1

Weddings

Collins-C-131

Whitney and Joe’s wedding day saw some typical English weather for two Americans in London – overcast skies and the occasional heavy shower – but that didn’t faze them at all, and the whole day went off without a hitch – apart from the groom and groomsmen having to sprint a little from the pub [...]

Kimberley & Richard at Bentley - bride on bridge

We’ve had a pretty good summer in England this year, and the sun was certainly shining for Kimberley and Richard, who got married at Bentley Wildfowl Reserve near Lewes in Sussex a few weeks ago. Once again I had the pleasure of shooting with Jane Wilkinson.

Libby and Paul were married at the Cisswood House Hotel, near Horsham Sussex, on a perfect June day. In fact it was almost too perfect for some of the guys who were dressed in traditional morning suits – those aren’t the coolest clothes to wear in the kind of weather we’ve been fortunate to have [...]

Karen & Nico: red & white roses in London W1

Weddings

rings and a rose - Chris Mann Photography

Last Saturday the venue was London West One – Portman Square in fact – for the wedding of Nico and Karen, shooting alongside Mr. Lloyd Dobbie… The weather was touch-and-go – a concern because the plan was to hold the ceremony in the park just across from the Churchill Hyatt Regency Hotel, where the reception [...]

Elaine and Tony’s wedding shoot in Cambridge

Weddings

Elaine and Tony at St. John's College Cambridge - wedding photo by Chris Mann

A couple of weeks ago I drove up to Cambridge to do a wedding photo-shoot for Elaine and Tony, with Chanelle Segerius-Bruce. Elaine studied at Cambridge so having a photo shoot in the familiar (and spectacular!) surroundings of the colleges and historic buildings had special meaning for her. We were fortunate to get permission to [...]
