Evan and Holly’s Dad’s Blog

Hi and welcome to my blog. Filled with images from my recent weddings, engagement shoots, portrait sessions and corporate work. Most importantly its a window into my world...a world where family takes an upper hand and I have the images to prove it. Hopefully you'll take a few minutes to browse and once addicted set the blog as a bookmark. If you have any comments please feel free to add them or just get in touch.

For The Record: The images that I put on the blog from recent weddings may not always be the best or even ones you might expect. They are things that I saw, that I like that I want to share. Sometimes they are part of a quirky story or show a tender or ironic side to a wedding.

Nicola and Ben — Wedding Photography at Tithe Barn, Ditcham

By Rob

On Saturday I made it back to my old local haunt, Tithe Barn. Its only been a month or so since I was last there but the light between the end of February and the beginning of May means that the things change and the look you get differs.  Best of all I got to work (once again) with some of my favourite suppliers:  Dennys Catering, The Topiary Company and Oliver Sheen (pianist and vocalist).  Ironically I met Oliver in 2005 at a wedding in Gloucestershire.  However, it wasn’t until Saturday that we realised that we actually lived about 4 miles apart.  Whilst we’re on the subject of suppliers, Nigel at the Topiary Company always manages to give the barn a special look.  As for food…well, there are few better in the kitchen than Sean Denny and with his wife Sue running front of house you never want for anything.  Enough plugs eh.

Nicola and Ben were fabutastic on Saturday.  There were certainly a number of things that made the day unique…none less so than their honoured special guests, Dolly and Edie (I hope spelled the names right), their Pugs.  So with that let’s see some images

When Darren and I learned that some contained Haribo there was a moment where we thought we could take the lot and leg it.  In the end we thought better of the idea.
