You may have already seen the shots of us setting fire to the wedding dress, but we also took some really nice shots of it too.

We were blessed with some terrifically moody skies this day. Photoshop barely required to bring them out to their full drama. And of course on top of the hill you are guaranteed …

This is what happens when you burn and drown a wedding dress or two….

Berkeley Castle Shoot
Cotswold Care Hospice has got me in its grips and I get called up to photograph all sorts of things for them. Not that I mind, I’m more than happy to support local charities when and where I can.

Personally, I’d like to thank all those that were involved in this shoot:
Emma, Ella, Kas and Zara for …
