About this project

An afternoon in one London park, three changes of clothes, and no hurry.

A pre-wedding shoot is worth doing slowly, and this one had the whole afternoon. A vintage ice-cream van parked on a garden path. An ornamental pool with the fountains running. A stone balustrade in full sun, and a pavilion at the end of it. Navy and cream to begin, then a red dress against one enormous dark tree, then matching denim under the canopy. Most of what we kept happened between the frames we set up.

Held close at the pool's edge, one resting a head against the other's shoulder, a fountain catching the light behind.

Stills

The couple hold each other in front of a vintage cream ice-cream van parked on a garden path, looking straight to camera.
Standing either side of the van's open door with hands linked across it, a domed stone monument and a garden pavilion behind them.
The same moment either side of the van's open door, hands linked, the park opening out behind them.
Face to face beside the van's serving window, hands held between them, one wearing a pale wide-brimmed hat.
A laughing embrace at the edge of an ornamental pool, one lifted clear off the ground, fountain jets rising behind them.
The same embrace framed closer, both laughing, water and dark green trees filling the background.

Held close at the pool's edge, one resting a head against the other's shoulder, a fountain catching the light behind.
Walking hand in hand along a stone path toward the camera, an arcaded garden pavilion behind them.
Mid-stride on the same path, hands linked and both turned to look at each other.
Standing a little apart at a stone balustrade with hands linked, the straw hat held low in one hand.
Leaning against the sunlit balustrade in conversation, hands together, hat on.
A playful dip beside the pool — one leaning back laughing with a foot kicked up, the other taking the weight.
The same dip framed tighter against the water and the fountains.
A change of outfit: seated on a low park railing in a long red dress, one hand reaching out to the other, who stands in a black waistcoat and tie.
Foreheads together and eyes closed, both smiling; an engagement ring catches the light on the hand resting against a white shirt.
Walking hand in hand toward the camera in the red dress and black waistcoat, a white stone garden gateway behind them.
Turning back over one shoulder mid-walk, the red dress sweeping out behind, hands still joined.
A wide frame of the two small on the path beside a still pool, dwarfed by one huge dark tree, the red dress the only colour in the picture.
A third look, both in matching pale blue denim, arms around each other on a shaded park path, mid-laugh.
Hand in hand across the grass in matching denim, both watching their feet.
The same walk a beat later, both turning to look at each other.
An embrace on the path under light coming dappled through the tree canopy.
Close in, foreheads touching and eyes closed, one hand laid flat on the other's chest.
A kiss hidden behind a hand raised to the camera, the engagement ring and a gold watch sharp in the foreground.

Client testimonial

What the client said about this project, in their words. Nothing is written for this slot.

The couple walk down the town hall steps hand in hand through a storm of white confetti, guests applauding on either side.
