‘I had to run 200 miles for my first kiss’

The Times Wedding Feature | Taomi & Luke

I had the absolute privilege of photographing Taomi and Luke’s wedding at The Temple of Minerva in Bath, just two days before lockdown number 2!

I documented just a handful of weddings last year, all so memorable :)

OH ALLISTER!

Our photos are incredible! I cried! You are truly amazing at what you do and we are so so thankful for you and your talents! 10000% well worth the wait!

You captured every ounce of love in the photos and all our family and friends cannot get over how amazing they are!

The very nature of a blog means that weddings (and things like lovely customer reviews) get pushed further and further back…

With covid lingering and many a wedding-plan scuppered, it’s been a perfect opportunity to go back and visit some particularly memorable weddings of recent years.

Here’s Linda and Ade’s day that took place in a beautifully sunny, covid-free London circa August 2018.

They were very fortunate to have their ceremony held in St Paul’s Cathedral - followed by a trip along the Thames to their reception at The Queen’s House in Greenwich.

I think it’s important I say I was really nervous about picking a wedding photographer, my mum was a professional photographer and working in the public eye and I’ve worked with a lot of different styles of photographers.

As much as I loved Allister in person and loved his work on the website, I was still anxious to see how the photos would turn out - I’m very particular and not very easy to please!

With that in mind, I’ve been utterly blown away looking through the 300+ photos.

I never imagined that photographs could make me cry so much but it felt like I was re-living our day and it was just so beautiful.

From the moment we started speaking you’ve been a breeze. Responsive, understanding and easy-going. We wanted photography that interpreted the emotions and vibrance of the wedding day authentically, and you’ve absolutely mastered that!

Allister, not only did you capture the intimate moments of our wedding day, but those moments were beautifully framed and focussed, you have such a great eye and talent for post-production too because the colours, tones and textures are gorgeous and natural throughout.

You made us feel so utterly relaxed, something that really comes across in the images. You’re a truly experienced and extraordinarily talented photographer and artist, thank you again!

By working with me you won’t be made to pose, jump, dance, twirl or otherwise play up to the camera.

You focus on relaxing and I'll make the timeless and authentic images.

I’ve been a professional London wedding photographer since 2004, photographing hundreds of weddings and portrait commissions internationally; my style has developed into a distinct form of natural and honest coverage.
