Wedding photographer at the Royal Marines Museum in Southsea.

Today I was doing the photography for Louise and Peter who married at The Royal Marines Museum, Southsea, Hampshire. I have uploaded a fair few images here from their day and will be showcasing just a few images from each wedding this year.

The website for the Royal Marines Museum is here: www.royalmarinesmuseum.co.uk I love working at this venue, with its close proximity to Southsea and Portsmouth and very helpful and supportive staff (thank you Pam and the team). The venue has fantastic grounds and rooms and a beautiful staircase for photos. I am already booked to cover other weddings here later in 2016 too. I have shown just a couple of images here from todays wedding, as usual.

I am currently offering some very good rates and have some remaining availability for some key 2016 dates, subject to my availability. Please do get in touch - I look forward to possibly working for YOU too. If you book during January or February for this year - I will offer you a special deal (a New Year SALE!!) so please do get in touch now!

I will shortly be completing my 'round' of local wedding fayres through January through to April and so remaining dates will naturally fill soon.

Wedding photographer at St Johns Church in Southbourne, near Emsworth, in Hampshire.

Today I was at a church wedding in my home village of Southbourne, near Emsworth and I was doing the wedding photography for Rhiannon and Tim. The whole wedding, including most photos, the meal and even the evening dance was in the church - which was a first for me as a wedding photographer!

After the ceremony and some photos inside the church, everyone headed next door whilst the church was prepared for the meal. The whole day took place in the church and also the fantastic reception rooms next door, where cake and tea was served at different times.

I have uploaded just a few favourite images here from the day. As you might be able to tell from my photos - it RAINED!! The Vicar was receptive to indoor photos and very helpful all round (thank you Clive) and so a little rain and wind didn't really dampen the day at all from our perspective......

This kind of day illustrates to any non believers - why you should always book a true pro / Master photographer for your rainy day (even some Summer) wedding!!

Official sports event photographer - The official photos - Gosport Half Marathon, Hampshire

Today I attended the Gosport Half Marathon, hosted by the members of Gosport Road Runners Running Club: www.gosportroadrunners.org.uk They are a friendly and supportive crowd and the marshals and support crew do a fantastic job at this event which I have covered now for many years.

I was the official photographer for the event on 15th November 2015. The event website is here: www.gosportroadrunners.org.uk and it was a good turnout / entry level.

We had very blustery and overcast conditions, but I managed to capture a good selection of images on the course. I photographed the promenade in Lee on The Solent and was able to capture images of the vast majority of runners as they ran towards home at around 11 miles.

The images will be available for viewing and sale to the runners very soon, typically within 24 hours of each event – often the same day. Photos are priced at very reasonable rates and there are discounts on my usual digital image (JPG) sales this year.

Wedding photographer at a same sex wedding at the White Swan near Arundel in West Sussex

Today I was at The White Swan in Arundel, West Sussex. I was doing the wedding photography for Sam and Rachel and it was a great day, if a little too damp to venture far outside!

In case you didn't notice I was lucky enough to be photographing two brides today, in a same sex wedding. I have photographed a good number Civil Partnership Ceremonies in the past, but cannot recall a same sex wedding until this one.

After a 2pm ceremony in the Arundel Suite - we posed for some photos at various locations around the before the couple headed outdoors for a few more photos and then went on to their reception. After a swift cake cut and some fantastic speeches - that was all for me today.

I enjoy working at this local Hotel and the staff are always helpful to me too - I was assisted by Jo on the day who was very helpful & who coordinated everything for the hotel.

All the images were available for viewing for Sam and Rachel and their families very quickly.

If YOU are getting married this Winter - Please do get in touch and see what late availability, or special offers I might have available for YOU!

Wedding photographer at the Portsmouth Register Offices and also HMS Nelson in Portsmouth

Today I was at Portsmouth Registrar Offices. I was doing the wedding photography for Michelle and Adam and it was a lovely day.

After a 3.30pm ceremony and a few family shots on the stair case - we posed for some photos at various locations around the Register Offices before the couple headed off to HMS Nelson for some more photos and then onwards to the Tapas bar known as Sant-Yago in Southsea.

The Portsmouth Register Offices is one of my favourite Register Offices to cover, as the space and gardens are fantastic and the staff are always helpful to me too.

All the images were available for viewing for Michelle and Adam and their families very quickly.

If YOU are getting married this Winter - Please do get in touch and see what late availability, or special offers I might have available for YOU!
