  • Wedding day entertainment

    Just found a picture on my pocket camera from the Heart FM wedding show in February which I have just sent to Irie J to use if he wishes. If you wish a great singer covering soul and smooth classics for your wedding or party Irie J is THE man. I love to hear him!

  • Wedding Photography for Marian & John at The Reid Rooms

    We had the pleasure of being the Essex Wedding Photographers for the Wedding of Marian & John on a dry and bright day at The Reid Rooms, Margaret Roding.  Marian prepared for her Wedding at the elegant Farmhouse, which is located on the same site, and where we captured some lovely photographs.  As well as photographing some formal groups we enjoyed capturing relaxed and informal groupings and moments.  May we take this opportunity of thanking Marion & John for a lovely day and also our thanks and recommendation go to Chicks, www.chickscatering.co.uk for their superb food and service.

  • Wedding Photography for Charlotte & Ajeet

    Wedding photography at Layer Marney Tower

    Our day started with photographing Ajeet, his Best Man and Ushers in the lovely grounds of Layer Marney Tower, Nr Colchester, Essex.  When Charlotte arrived we were able to take some images of her with the Bridesmaids before the Wedding Ceremony began.  After the Ceremony Charlotte & Ajeet were taken for a drive by Graham, the Chauffeur, and upon their return enjoyed some social time with their Wedding guests.  Layer Marney Tower provides a wonderful setting for a Wedding and with the weather being kind to us, we achieved some beautiful photographs, which we are sure Charlotte & Ajeet will be happy with.

  • Team Photographs

    Although our son has now finished with youth football it is still a pleasure to be invited to photograph for Valley Green YFC and others as a presentation for their sponsors.

  • Children's Portrait photographs

    Children are often more comfortable in familiar surrounding which is how we prefer to photograph them! Using just window light is a skill not practiced by many new photographers but is a something we love to use.

  • Karen & Michael's Wedding Photography at Smeetham Hall Barn

    Smeetham Hall Barn wedding photographers

    It was a lovely bright day when we arrived at Karen’s house to start their Wedding Photography.  As Karen was ready it gave us the opportunity for relaxed pictures as she had left plenty of time.  On arrival at St Michael’s Church, Bulmer, we presented the Vicar with a mounted picture of himself, taken when we were previously there, which he was very pleased with.  After the service, a few traditional photographs as well as natural confetti pictures were taken, then we left to go to Smeetham Hall Barn.  We created a fun experience with the Bridal party within the wonderful grounds of the Barn, resulting in natural smiley pictures.

  • Wedding Photography at St Nicolas Church, Witham and The Fennes

    Wedding photos at The Fennes

    It was a pleasure to be the Essex Wedding Photographers for the Wedding of Caroline and Marcus.  Our day started at Caroline’s home where we were able to take some photographs in the garden.  After the service at St Nicolas Church we were able to capture some lovely images outside the Church before leaving for the The Fennes Estate, Bocking, for the Reception.  Caroline, Marcus and their Guests enjoyed their day at Fennes, enabling David and I to record some wonderful memories for them.

  • Wedding Photography for Georgina & Simon

    The weather was not too kind to us as Essex Wedding Photographers for the Wedding of Georgina & Simon at The Fennes Estate, Bocking.  Fennes is one of the best places when the weather is less than perfect and provides many oppportunities to produce creative wedding photography indoors.  A break in the weather during the Wedding Breakfast allowed us to take Georgina & Simon onto the bridge for a few minutes to create some classic Fennes’ photographs.

  • Photography Workshop at Buxton

    Essex wedding photographers David & Sandra Islip have this week attended a training workshop at Roaches Hall in Derbyshire with a great crowd of photographers and models.

    Roaches Hall was set on a hillside and made a great location for photography.
