Hilary & Ben’s Pre-Wedding Shoot in Ibiza

March 23, 2015

Ibiza Chinese Pre Wedding Shoot Ibiza-pre-post-wedding-shoot-002 Ibiza-pre-post-wedding-shoot-003 Ibiza-pre-post-wedding-shoot-004 Ibiza-pre-post-wedding-shoot-005 Ibiza-pre-post-wedding-shoot-006 Ibiza-pre-post-wedding-shoot-007

Hilary & Ben, who you may recognise, have been featured a few times here on the blog. Their engagement shoot in Ibiza where Hilary sported a modern red number, their pre wedding shoot in full wedding attire in Ibiza, a photo shoot around Oxford where they both attended Uni and finally the couple’s wedding day held at Claridge’s in London.

You & Your Wedding Magazine featured Hilary & Ben’s wedding in print, so you may have seen it there too!

It is couple’s like these who come along, just a small handful of times, who are so into their photography as well as their wedding, that really light me up. We had so much fun in all the various locations from Ibiza to Oxford and finally the grandeur of London Claridges.  By the time the wedding came around we all knew each other very well and it made for a very relaxed and smooth day in terms of the photographs.

One final thank-you, Hilary & Ben, for selecting me to photograph such a special time in your lives.

If you are interested in a pre wedding shoot in Ibiza please drop me a line..

Personal Brand Photo Shoots

March 22, 2015

Gorgeous head shots for women business owners in London and IbizaWomen at work profile shots in London and Ibiza

Looking for some beautiful personal branding photos for your business?

I’ve been a full time professional photographer for over 10 years now and in 2014 was names one of the Worlds Top Photographers by Martha Stewart Weddings Magazine, one of only 3 in Europe to receive this honour.

Over the last 10 years I have been running a successful business shooting beautiful and amazing weddings all over the world, and I have also shot portraits for top magazine editors and been published widely over the last 20 years in many magazines. I now also coach other photographers to up level their lives and businesses.

I always see the best in people and my own work as a coach helps me to connect with and understand the women I photograph. I’m a whizz at creating flattering and joyful images that exude happiness and style.

After doing shoots with a few amazing women lately, including the gorgeous entrepreneurs Jia Ni & Jess pictured here, I’ve been inspired to offer 2 half day shoots each in Paris (May), LA (August) & Florence (October). The shoots are £1500 for a 3 hour shoot which includes an hour’s Skype consultation to plan your shoot beforehand & a questionnaire to understand your brand and what you desire to communicate so we can plan your shoot to truly reflect you. I can also help arrange hair and make up, and give you advice on what to wear or connect you with a stylist.

Want to know even more? I also have a degree in Psychology, and previously worked in fashion as assisting fashion stylists (including at Marie Claire Magazine) and in advertising at a top London advertising agency working on brands and marketing. I bring this beautiful mix of experience to how I will approach your shoot and create your images.

  • Your favourite 5 images with cosmetic retouching (i.e. softening of lines, blemishes, under eye bags, stray hair, arm slipping, strap removing etc)
  • Images delivered 2-3 weeks after your shoot by Dropbox (timing depends on location/time of year)
  • Additional Retouching available on request

Upgrade Option

Upgrade to a Full Day Shoot – 6 Hours with Hair and Make Up included. + £1000 (Total £2500). This will include 10 images with cosmetic retouching and around 120 images from your day.

Sounds Great! How do I Book?

“Firstly we have not had a chance to thank you for the gorgeous package
you sent us and wrapped so beautifully.

What a lovely surprise to open when we got home and the photos are
just incredible. You are an amazing artist”

This is Nick & Xuca’s relaxed Ibiza wedding, held at a gorgeous Moroccan inspired villa overlooking the sea in Cala Carbo in the South West of Ibiza. Their spiritual ceremony took place on the clifftop high above the sea and opposite the mythical rock of Es Vedra in Ibiza (the third most magnetic place on Earth!). Nick is an architect with his own practice, Data Nature and has designed shops for Manolo Blahnik, and Xuca works in finance. The couple met in Ibiza at a lunch thrown by mutual friends, Nick proposed in Ibiza and naturally there was only one location that their hearts would allow them to hold their wedding!

Their beautiful baby girl Olympia was at the heart of their celebrations…. and Aman Cara, a private villa, set in the wild rocks and cliff tops above the sea, a spectacular and dramatic location. The bride wore Pucci, a mosaic tiled fountain in the villa’s garden inspired the stationary suite designed by the super talented Louise Richardson, and Eat Ibiza  served fresh Mediterranean salads, grilled prawns and more from the poolside BBQ. Naturally, being Ibiza, festivities continued into the small hours with a live bongo player and saxophonist playing whilst guests danced around the pool.

From the Bride… Although we both work long hours, planning our wedding was a fun and relaxed affair, with lovely trips to Ibiza and meeting amazing professionals who helped us design our perfect day. From Louise’s stunning invitations and stationary, to Vikki’s spectacular wedding planning and divine catering, to Polly’s gorgeous photos on real film that captured the mood of the day and the dramatic weather so beautifully, and ending with our saxophonist Laura who made the evening. Sharing the experience with our daughter Olympia and our families and friends was so special and I know every single person felt incredibly spoiled and charmed on the day, especially myself and Nick!

If you are getting married in Ibiza please do contact me to discuss your wedding plans.

You may have seen Charlotte’s wedding up on the blog a couple of weeks ago. It was certainly a flurry of likes and comments over on Instagram! Charlotte Balbier is an amazing dress designer and being in the industry meant that her wedding was going to blow us all away, which it certainly did!

Charlotte & Teddy flew to Ibiza for a pre wedding engagement shoot with me. It was an opportunity for them to get away, have some couple time and not think about the wedding planning for a few days. I think this is such a special thing to do and a beautiful way to remember who you are as a couple before all the wedding planning business sets in!
