Check out this pretty lady!!!!

What can I say about these pics… I had the most fun hanging out with Caro for the day in Brixton.
She’s a super cool photographer who I kept bumping into at various wedding shindigs… And we totally hit it off and decided to get together and have a ‘shoot off’…
I have to say that we had a fab day shooting and wandering around the village and I’m soooo stoked with the pics Caro took of me! it’s about time I had some good ones!

Here they are, let me know what you guys think!
And don’t forget to go check out Caro’s pics over on her blog too.

I can’t wait for another installment of Celine & Caro Do London

A Southwark Cathedral Wedding

Celine — Mon, 12 Dec 2011 17:41:55 +0000

This summer I had the absolute joy and pleasure to photograph a really gorgeous couple at Southwark Cathedral.
And boy you gotta love a good Cathedral, the light, the high vaulted ceilings and the beauty of a very special occasion in a grand setting. Being a south London resident and being guilty of spending way too much time near and around Borough Market in the summer, I was super excited to photograph a wedding literally on my doorstep. When I first met Victoria and Jan we got on so well and their wedding day sounded just fabulous with a reception at Vinopolis to boot. After the ceremony we took a walk through Borough Market for some shots of the couple and their bridal party which was lots of fun, with plenty of congratulations from passers by.

I’m not going to ramble on too much suffice to say that Victoria and Jan’s love was clearly evident throughout the day. They really were like lovestruck teenagers, constantly together and kissing and saying sweet nothings into each others ears. It really warms the cockles.

I hope you like the photographs.

Eleanor & Martin {Comics and Deckchairs in London}

Celine — Wed, 09 Nov 2011 16:10:39 +0000

Whoop! Two posts in one week…. I may even excel myself with three! That’s if you’re very lucky!

Today I have a lovely little London shoot for you. I shot this with Eleanor and Martin who have booked me for their wedding and wanted to have some shots and experience being in front of the camera so that they felt relaxed with me on their wedding day.
It’s a great idea if you’re not normally used to being in the spotlight or are a little camera shy.

We had lots of fun, tracing the route that we’ll be taking on their actual wedding day, visiting the church and walking through Bond Street (I had the urge to splurge whilst walking through there) to the hotel that’s hosting their reception and then ending at Green Park. It was just the beginning of Autumn and the trees were still green but with the odd few falling… I love that time of year.

I hope you like them and I can’t wait to photograph their wedding!

Cheryl and Dan {Get Married}

Celine — Wed, 09 Nov 2011 10:34:21 +0000

This year has been super super busy for me and so I’ve been a bit lax with blogging my weddings from the summer. Up today is a really sweet one with the lovely Cheryl and Dan at Creeksea Place in Burnham on Crouch in Essex.
The venue was gorgeous and the wedding was even more gorgeous with Cheryl and Dan saying their vows under the doorway of the house in front of all their family and friends.
Cheryl and Dan’s little girl Grace was a bridesmaid and as cute as a button clinging onto her daddy’s legs whilst they said their vows. Super cute!
Feel free to leave to blog love at the comments for the lovely couple!

Lots of gorgeous wedding posts coming soon…

Michelle and Chris {Get Married}

Celine — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 12:55:27 +0000

Great Fosters in Egham, Surrey was the venue that Michelle and Chris chose to get married, and it was a wonderful day filled with much love and emotion.
For a couple who warned me of not being photogenic, I think you’ll have to join me in disagreeing with that comment. They were totally natural in front of the camera, barely even noticing me because they were so taken with each other and the fact that they were husband and wife. I love that so much!
Despite a typical English shower part way through the group formal shots the day was lovely with everyone having a fabulous time.
Not to mention the best ‘Dad Dancing’ I’ve EVER seen. Visions of Saturday Night Fever spring to mind when I think of Michelle’s Dad and his moves on the dance floor. He was brilliant, not to mention his complete and utter love and devotion to his little girl, all grown up and marrying the man of her dreams. His tears made me teary…

I hope you like the pics….

{Personal} Vintage Swishing In Shoreditch

Celine — Fri, 16 Sep 2011 10:56:22 +0000

This summer I had the chance to photograph an event run by a very talented and passionate woman by the name of Lucy who is the brains behind Hummingbird Vintage.
Having started following her on twitter I saw her tweet about the need for some vintage crockery and anyone that’s seen my Tea Party pics will know that I’ve got a pretty reasonable collection so I offered lovely lucy my help!

Lucy organised a fab soiree at Bar Music Hall in Shoreditch with lots of lovely people giving up their time to help raise money for charity and I met some fabulous people including the very talented hair and makeup artist Miss Kelly Bare (pictured doing my hair), watched some burlesque (with my favourite performer Sophia St.Villier) bought some vintage delights from Hummingbird Vintage and Rock Candy and photographed all the prettiness! A perfect day all round. Plus it was even better because it was for a good cause!

I hope you like the pics…

Me with the lovely Miss Honey Bare

A Sweet Little Note {Personal}

Celine — Tue, 23 Aug 2011 21:29:48 +0000

Those of you who follow my little blog may have seen my post featuring the lovely Annie and Brandon…

Well today I received a sweet little postcard with a picture of Mt Bachelor and a note from Annie…

I couldn’t help but post a couple of pics as I’m so excited to say that I’m going out to visit her and Brandon next year… I’ll be hoping to visit a few of the amazing mountains that Brandon told me all about and hopefully some wine tasting with Annie in the vast wine valleys along the west coast.

I literally can’t wait!

This next one tickled me… What a well travelled postcard, going via Barbados on it’s way to Rainy old England!

This postcard is taking pride of place on my wall with a pic of Annie and I…

Miss Annie soooo much and can’t wait to have a little holiday with her and her lovely husband!

Isn’t this woman beautiful…. More to come from Michelle and Chris’ wedding soon…

I couldn’t resist listening to this song when I was editing this wedding… I wish I had a Beatles song written for my name
