2014 Adventure – Portrait and Commercial Photography

Lisa — Thu, 08 Jan 2015 12:00:14 +0000

So 2014 not only involved some amazing weddings, it also included some great shoots and commercial work, many of which involved an adventure or two.

2014 included:

24 hours in Berlin to document a pop up shop for an awesome tshirt company and the adventure that followed

a 6am flight to make it back to London to shoot behind the scenes of a look book

an interiors shoot for a great new bar

the news that some of my couples were having babies and I was asked back into their lives to document the new additions to the family

a shoot for one of my past brides who is a yoga instructor…to say I felt unfit after that shoot is an understatement

an afternoon up on Primrose Hill photographing a dog trainer and her dogs

a styled shoot for an awesome stationery and gift company

a trip to France that involved photography holiday homes and the way too much fresh bread

a product shoot for a florist

a day spent in tattoo shop, documenting the artists and the couple that run the shop

many an afternoon spent with some lovely couples on engagement shoots

teaching my first workshop, (nerve-racking) and got asked back to teach again!

starting 1-1 mentor sessions. It feels great to be sharing my experience with some talented people

These are just a few of the photos from these adventures and I am looking forward to sharing more of these with you over the next few months.

I am so lucky that my photography allows me to meet some amazing people and create images for some great independent companies.

A Little East London Wedding

Lisa — Wed, 04 Jan 2012 22:17:00 +0000

After a few emails about their wedding, Marina invited me round to their house for a chat over a cup of tea. We talked about weddings, photography, cake and their family. I was introduced to their children and as we discussed their wedding plans, it was clear that the day was to be a relaxed celebration with very little formality, just a chance to be surrounded by loved ones.
When I arrived at their home on the day of the wedding, I was welcomed like an old friend. We chatted about music, I met their cat and what surprised me most was the sense of calm both Marina and Adrian had. They where both excited about the day ahead, and as they got ready together, it was clear they were both devoted to each other. Marina had a choice of two dresses for the day and ended up wearing the most gorgeous vintage designer dress.
After a beautiful ceremony at Hackney Town Hall, a glass of champagne was handed to each guests for a toast on the steps of the town hall. It was such a lovely moment full of laughter and a few tears especially as the kids were running around still throwing confetti.

A Couple In Love – Elbie and Derek

Lisa — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 09:00:00 +0000

Meet Elbie and Derek.
I was really excited when Elbie got in contact wanting a shoot. They got married back in March but wanted some photographs to celebrate their relationship and married life together.
These guys are so in love and devoted to each other and I really wanted to capture that in their photos. Watching them interact and get swept up in the emotion of the shoot was amazing and their love was completely infectious, I can remember smiling all through the shoot. Even now, I still smile when I see these photos and remember the fun we had. I really hope these photos capture that love.

Thank you Elbie and Derek for letting me into your lives for a couple of hours. I feel honored to now be a part of your history together!

A Rock ‘n’ Roll Wedding

Lisa — Thu, 10 Nov 2011 14:08:00 +0000

What can I say about these guys!

From the moment I met Laura I knew this was going to be a beautiful day. With their friends and family pitching in to help make decorations, cakes and food, it was a day filled with friendship and love.
The moment I walked into Mishka I was surround by mounds of vintage clothes, a nervous mother and beautiful bride. The place was a treasure trove and I understand why Laura picked it as a her place to get ready. There is nothing like the excitement of the bride and her bridesmaids getting ready and it really set the tone for the rest of the day.
Laura and Daniel are both very creative and it seems their friends are too. At the end of the ceremony, some of their friends stepped up and performed a beautiful rendition of the Phil Spector classic ‘Be my Baby’. Lets just say there were a lot of smiles and tears and if one surprise musical number isn’t enough, during Daniel’s speech, he serenaded his beautiful wife with a version The Temptations ‘My Girl’. When all the guests joined in on the chorus, I have to admit I was overwhelmed by the love that surrounded these guys.

Laura and Daniel, I just wanted to say thank you for letting me photograph your amazing wedding. It was an absolute pleasure to be able to capture so many heart warming moments and I hope they will be cherished for a long time to come.

Happy Birthday Roo!

Lisa — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 12:26:00 +0000

Say hello to Roo and wish her a happy birthday!
Roo is the new intern for Rock n’ Roll Bride and has just started the crazy adventure that is wedding planning. This lovely lady is getting married to a very lucky chap, named Lamb, next year and you can read their adorable love story here. I was lucky enough to join Roo and Kat for dinner one night and dinner led to drinks, which led to cocktails on the Southbank. Much fun was had and there was a lot of chat about weddings, tattoos and taxidermy. Needless to say we all walked away from the night all wanting new tattoos 🙂

I have been crazy busy recently, shooting gorgeous couples, beautiful weddings and stunning dresses. It’s a really exciting time for me and while I have a lot to blog, I do not want to rush these blog posts as I want to make sure I do justice to the lovely people I have had the pleasure of photographing.

Until I can find the time and the words, here is a little teaser of what I have been up to!

Let me introduce Elke.
Born early, this tiny little girl is very dear to her parents hearts. It was an honor to be asked to photograph her and be a part of her family for the day. I can not wait to photograph her again.

Laura & Daniel

Lisa — Mon, 01 Aug 2011 11:40:00 +0000

When I turned up at Laura and Daniel’s flat for their engagement shoot I was greeted with a cup of tea and scone covered in jam and cream…I was one very happy photographer. After a little catch up about their wedding, we started to take some photos and it was an afternoon full of laughter and messing about.

These guys where so at ease in front of the camera and they made my job really easy. They really got into the shoot and started to come up with ideas and have fun with it.

I am so excited about their wedding. It is going to be fun and full of love!

Love My Dress Competition

Lisa — Mon, 27 Jun 2011 19:40:00 +0000

As a photographer, I try to take inspiration from everything I see. Whether its films, music or books, there is always something that will spark an idea and get me thinking. It is how a lot of the elements in my own wedding came together and after talking to a few of my couples, it seems everyone is taking inspirations from the things they love. After pulling together a few mood boards for inspiration for some shoots I have started to ask my brides to do them same. It’s the perfect way for a couple to get their ideas across and it then plays a role when planning their ‘couple in love’ shoot. I had a couple of mood boards to hand when I started to talk to Tiffany about a styled shoot and after talking through some ideas, I began thinking it would be so much more fun it we where working with a couple rather than models. From that point on my mind was full of ideas but I thought rather than impose our own vision on a couple, why not let them come up with the idea. Styled couples shoots are not a new idea, but I have not had the chance to be a part of one yet so when talking to Tiffany, we thought it would be a great idea to run a competition, where we offered one lucky couple, my photography, and Tiffany’s fantastic styling.

Tiffany is a regular contributor to the fantastic site Love My Dress and when she told Annabel about our idea, she jumped at the chance to feature it.

Annabel wrote a great feature about the competition and the response has been great. It seems you brides are a really creative bunch and both myself and Tiffany are really excited about the entries we have see so far. Pop over to Love My Dress and take a look at a couple of entries sent in by some couples. These boards are exactly what I was hoping for and I can not wait to see all the entries. The closing date for the competition is 8th July so there is still time get your creative hat on and send in an entry.

To be in with a chance of winning a styled shoot, photographed by me and styled by Grant Riley Styling, all you need to do is create a moodboard that shows us style of shoot you want to be a part of. Whether you are happily married, newly engaged or just young and in love you are free to create a moodboard and enter.

Head over to Love My Dress to find out all the details and see some of the entries.
