Wedding photographer at Portsmouth Register Offices and at Spice Island in Old Portsmouth

Today I was at Portsmouth Register Offices. I was doing the wedding photography for Eleni and Dan and it was a fab day, with a small family group attending (around 20 people).

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 Southsea for some more photos and then onwards to Spice Island in Old Portsmouth.

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 Eleni and Dan and their families very quickly.

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

Renewal of Vows photographer at HMS Warrior in Portsmouth

Kim and Sean held their renewal of vows ceremony at HMS Warrior in Portsmouth and it was Valentines Day. The couple originally married in Portsmouth Register Offices on Valentines Day 1985 - 30 years ago to the day!! I was at HMS Warrior by early afternoon and for their 3pm ceremony. We had a great afternoon, despite the drizzle and took photos outside and then indoors, after the showers set in. HMS Warrior - is simply fantastic for wedding or special event photography.

The website of HMS Warrior is here: www.hmswarrior.org and I always enjoy working with the staff here and particularly Emma and Julie who coordinate their events and weddings.

There are just a few favourite photos from this day and Warrior looks quite different when the photographic opportunities are mainly indoors and below deck!

After the ceremony and some photos at different locations around the ship - I went to the Royal Maritime Club Hotel where the couple were holding their evening reception to their event. Transport for the day was a fabulous 2014 RR which you can see in one of the photos - what a car!

A busy 2015 is looming now, so just list a few photos from each event I attend will appear on my blog. I still have some availability going through this Summer and I am currently offering discounts for remaining 2015 dates and ultra affordable mid week options. Please do get in touch if this interests you at all.

Official photographer at the Chichester 10K road running race.

Today I attended the Chichester 10K RUN and for the seventh or eight year running. This event is hosted by the Rotary Club of Chichester Priory. I was the ‘official photographer’ again for their event on 8th February 2015. Chichester 10K is a very successful annual 10K ‘road’ running race and there was a large and very competitive entry, making for hectic race photography!!

This Chichester 10K Race is one of the best organised running events I am privileged to photograph and always has a great atmosphere amongst entrants, spectators and officials. We also had bright and fairly still conditions - good for running and photos.

My images will be available for viewing and sale to the runners very quickly after each event, typically the same day. A few sample images are shown here – just to wet the appetite. If you are organising a similar event and may require an experienced event photographer - please check out my website and feel free to get in touch.

My work is mainly orientated to social (weddings) photography nowadays, plus some commercial and PR photography. However, I do enjoy doing some sports events (mainly running and equestrian) and also supporting a good local cause - in this case the Rotary Club of Chichester Priory.
