I had such an amazing 1st wedding of the year on Saturday. It really made me excited so I thought id share just a couple. The rest will be posted next week. Thank you Emily & Dave for being such a wonderful couple to photograph.

About 6 hours ago we got back from our mini getaway in Cartmel (home of sticky toffee pudding) in the South Lakes. We stayed and ate at the Michelin starred L’Enclume which was such a lovely treat. What a wonderful little place.

 I’m so excited to tell you that my dream to have my photographs featured in a major magazine has been realised this week! It started about 10 months ago when I was thrust back into the world of weddings after having some lovely time off with my new baby daughter. I decided to up my game, get some publicity and come up with some ambitious goals for the year ahead – one of which was to feature in a major bridal magazine alongside the amazing photographers that I’d been swooning over month after month. My second wedding of the year proved to be the wedding to get me there. Jon & Kate had THE most photogenic setting for their big day which I must say helped me out, along with their choice of personal touches and interesting ideas which brought such individuality to their wedding. When I contacted You & Your Wedding Magazine with the pictures they seemed delighted to take it off my hands - I couldn’t quite believe it! And so 6 months later, here I am celebrating my first published feature. I have a very exciting year ahead with plenty more determination left in me so I hope to be gracing the pages again soon. Un-bee-leevable.
4 comments Well after reading everyone else’s round up of 2011 I thought I’d get a few of my faves from the year and put them together in a little story for you. What started as a bit of a token post purely to keep up with my peers has ended up a very personal account of the things I have achieved this year photographically. It may not be obvious to the untrained eye that my work has moved on leaps and bounds but to me, in merely 6 months since the birth of my second child I feel I have a new agenda, a new passion to become great. In 2011 I became a different photographer. And only a few will know what I mean. It changed so quickly that I’m a little scared of where it will take me in 2012 – but I cant wait to see whats going to happen. I’ve found new influences, found new friends and found photography as a hobby as well as work (much to my husbands despair). I’ve realised what a friendly place this industry can be if you look hard enough and I don’t feel stuck in a tiny office on my own anymore – I feel like I’m part of a lively community thats buzzing with creativity and passion. In 2012 I’m really looking forward to working on some visually amazing weddings with some wonderful people. Im looking forward to seeing what I can make of all these bookings I have and looking forward to meeting lots of lovely new couples! I’d like to say a special few thank you’s to the people who have personally influenced/put up with me this year, Amy, Kelly, my Mum & Dad and my David. Speech over now. Enjoy!
