Children's birthday party photos

Last week I had a great day out at my niece Matilda's 4th Birthday party.  Amazingly eight sugar fueled children weren't actually as crazy as one might imagine.  Maybe it was the 'girls only' invite that helped - are boys just simply NOISIER?

My sister had planned a cool afternoon for the kids including a Tractor and Trailer ride around the farm searching for lost bears!  If anyone is planning a kids party I can highly recommend it.  Child containment on a tractor trailer for 25 mins works wonders!

Matilda - looking pretty pleased with her birthday cake.










OK, can anyone see a teddy bear -point and scream if you can!!?

After the party we went to see my mum and dad, which means only one thing - plenty of room for Barney and Daisy to run around in their garden.












Barnaby was working on some great faces for the camera.

Wedding testimonials - Barnsley House, Cotswolds

I recently received this lovely email from Kerry and Chris who's wedding I photographed at Barnsley House in April this year.  Here's the link to check out the full blog from their wedding day.

"Thank you for sending the link to the photos and blog. Sorry for taking so long to get back to you with our selections for the album – it was a very tough choice with all the fabulous photos that you took! 

We also wanted to tell you how thrilled we are with all the photos. When we booked you, we were looking for a photographer who could tell the story and capture the feel of the day in pictures, and that's exactly what we got from you. You have such a relaxed approach that you managed to make everyone feel at ease, and also managed to capture a lot of shots without us even knowing! Everyone who has seen the photos has said how amazing they are and we will certainly be happy to recommend you once our friends finally get round to tying the knot.

Thanks again, and we look forward to the album!"

Wedding Photos Friars Court, Oxfordshire

Jonathan and Amy - 12th June 2010

I've had a busy few days recently with three weddings in a week.  The first of which was at Friars Court near Oxford, actually it's probably nearer Witney, but hey ho!

Thankfully it was a fine day as Jonathan and Amy had an outdoor wedding ceremony planned.  Something I'm seeing more of recently......must be the global warming.  

Anyhow here are a few photos from the day.

It was a lovely day for an outdoor wedding ceremony.










Pimms, with rather sharp stick things - as I found out when an upturned one stuck in my hand as I moved a glass out the way - doh!
