When Kate first contacted me about her wedding, I was sold on one word: Newtown.  Not only was Turbine Hall an amazing venue that completely suited Kate and Rupert’s style, but theirs was also the first wedding ever held there! I never thought I’d be able to say I was the first photographer to shoot a wedding at a new venue so early in my career. So I was thrilled that Kate and Rupert asked me to be a part of it. Congratulations, you two! Your wedding was amazing and I enjoyed every minute of it.

Isn’t this the most amazing location for a wedding venue?

Kate’s dress was so simple and elegant, but the black sash really gave it some WOW factor.

Being an informal affair, the wedding party and family all walked together across the second floor bridge in Turbine Hall to reach the ceremony area. The sun was in just the right position for me to get this amazing flare.

We only had about fifteen minutes for our creative bridal portraits, but because Kate and Rupert didn’t have an engagement shoot, we’re going to go back to Newtown and do an uber-fabulous Trash the Dress session in a few weeks! Oooh.
