​​IN LOVING MEMORY.....
I have struggled to come up with the words and the reality to post this update....
It with great sadness and an extremely heavy heart, that I must tell you that suddenly and unexpectedly on August 2nd 2017, Martin passed away. Martin wasn't just the director of Wowphotography, he was also my Fiance.
​At the time of his passing we were only 5 weeks away from getting married ourselves. This has come as a great shock to not only myself but all who knew him.
Throughout this very tough and cruel time, I have not only been blessed with the support of family, friends and colleagues but also from our lovely clients.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Kelvin who manages The Long Barn in #NewtonValence for his kindness and support in hosting Martins Memorial celebration. Martin loved working at this venue and always enjoyed catching up with Kelvin whenever we visited. Kelvin went above and beyond to make that day very special for Martin and I couldn't have done it without him. Thank you Kelvin.

With regard to the business side of things, I have taken over as Director of Wowphotography and I am determined to continue and grow the business even more, keeping Martins vision alive for him and keeping with the standards and ethics he worked so hard to build. I have from somewhere found the strength to fulfill our Wedding bookings since that time, and I would like to thank our wonderful clients and their families for their kindness, support and patience on their special days and also to my friends in the photography industry who stepped forward and became second shooters for me to allow me to continue with our commitments. Throughout the next few weeks I will be starting to share Wedding previews of the Weddings since this time.

I am still very much adjusting to life without my soul mate, to me, he was my whole world. As anyone who met Martin would agree, he was such a big, vibrant, presence, who loved to laugh and joke with everyone, and loved to see people happy. His warmth, kindness and love will be greatly missed, leaving a void that feels impossible to comprehend by all who know and love him.
​
With Love & Best Wishes to you all,

​I had a dream day of Wedding Photography at the weekend with my absolute favourite weather condition making a guest appearance! 
After a little persuasion, Moby & Alex braved the freezing conditions to help me create some very unique memories and Wow, it was worth it!
In the 9 years of photographing Weddings this was my first one with Snow so you can imagine what an excited Wedding Photographer I was!!
What an absolutely stunning couple they are in such a beautiful venue. So much love for this first wedding of the year for us. ♥️

It gives me the greatest pleasure to tell you all that we have won an award in the Bridebook - The UK's No.1 Wedding Planning App 2018 Wedding Awards, not just any award though.. a GOLD one!! 💫

I would like to thank all of the amazing couples and their families that we had the pleasure to work with last year, who took the time to vote for us and write us a review, this means a great deal to me.

As you will hopefully remember I really wanted to achieve this in Martins honor for all of the work, dedication and talent he put in to get our business where it is today. I am delighted to have achieved that.

I will be raising a glass today with another Wedding industry professional & friend, dedicating this award to Martin. 💙

Last weeks Wedding ticked all of my boxes for THE Perfect day of Photography! 

As most of you reading this will know, I am Horse CRAZY!! I absolutely love them. So team that with a Wedding day and you are onto a very happy wedding photographer! The first bursts of excitement arrived when we were travelling (all of 2 miles) to the venue in nearby Medstead and we passed the horses being prepared for their day. Seeing them standing by their horsebox, their beautiful white coats shimmering in the early morning sunshine gave me goosebumps! By the time we got to the bride, I don't know who was more excited between the two of us! 

But, that wasn't where our photography excitement stopped. We were also blessed with an amazing Sunset and then, just when we thought that was it, there was a Moon Halo too! So many wonderful photography aspects for a Wedding Day, Things were certainly in lace for this wonderful couple to have the most incredible day. 

As you can imagine, there are a lot of photo's we want to share but for now here's a taster and we will kick things off with those beautiful horses. Not to mention the bride!

Now, this is only a sneak preview so look out for the next blog to see more images of their big day.

This week we were even closer to home with a location practically our doorstep at The Watercress Lodges in Ropley.

Claire and Joe had a fabulous open side marquee which they had decorated with the help of family and friends for their celebrations following their church ceremony in Hawkley. They hired the services of 'Sleepy Jean' from Vinnies Vintage Vehicles to transport them between wedding venues which was a fabulous touch and went so well with the colours and scheme of the Wedding and also for their Photo's, driving through our beautiful Hampshire Countryside.

On the day of the Wedding the Watercress Line was hosting its Steam Gala so once that had finished for the day we popped down to the station to capture some Bride and Groom shots. As it happens, it was the perfect timing with the sun just starting to lower in the sky giving a beautiful soft golden light, we were even luckier when we managed to capture the sunset too! 

We had an amazing time capturing the memories for this fantastic couple and I can't wait to share some more of those with you all but for now here's a first look of their day. 

Now, this is only a sneak preview so look out for the next blog to see more images of their big day.
