An intimate love affair on a cold frosty December day in London

Sophia and Brendan contacted me a couple of weeks’ before their wedding. They chose to have their marriage ceremony at the beautiful Mayfair Library registry office. Followed by lunch at The Princess of Wales in Primrose Hill.

Now I love a London wedding because it means I can explore my love of urban landscapes and architecture. London is always a little edgy as well and I really try to consider how I can capture that feel into in my couples wedding. Sophia and Brendan got married during the in-between bit of Christmas and New Year. The day itself was cold, slightly misty, with the sun trying to break through. The streets of Mayfair were disserted. I couldn’t believe how perfect the scene had begun.

Then I met Brendan and his best man and usher. We had plenty of time to use the red brick streets as a backdrop for some fun photos. Shortly after the small gathering of guests had arrived Sophia made her entrance, completely stealing the show. There were a lot of tissues handed round, especially to Brendan. It always seems to be the groom who sheds the tears on the day. Either way the emotions were high.

We had planned for the three of us to stay and do some couple pictures around the library and then head to Primrose Hill in a black cab. Some of my favourite pictures from that day were taken in the taxi. I didn’t need to guide them; they were just so happy and excited to be married. It meant I could do what I love best, document and capture what was happening in front of me.

Back at the pub the winter sun was beautifully billowing through the large windows. Again I just observed the group and made sure I captured as many lovely candid moments as I could. Including shots at the bar.

Such a lovely, intimate affair on perfect day in London. Oh and my very own claim to fame for the day! Hopefully you can work out why 😉
