It’s always nice when your work is published in a wedding magazine. But having one of your photos featured on a front cover is something else!

Even though I know when they’re coming, it’s still a ‘pinch myself’ moment when I get to hold the printed copy in my hands. I’m so proud of these front covers for Silverlinings Wedding Magazine.

It takes a team to make cover-worthy photos though. And I’m hugely thankful to everyone (locations, dress designers, hairstylists, make-up artists and models) who helped bring these to life.

Spring Summer 2020

This cover photo of Lily was shot in the White Room at Holdenby House as part of a Downton Abbey inspired shoot which is featured inside the magazine. The dresses, by Eliza Jane Howell, were such a treat to work with! I loved every minute!

Autumn/Winter 2019

Boughton House, the location for this shoot, has the most amazing architecture. It’s a sweet shop for photographers! So given that, this shot was taken in a rather unlikely place … the doors to an old stable! I couldn’t resist the texture and minimal colour which suited the balloons beautifully.

Spring/Summer 2019

Spring/Summer 2017

This is the one that started the trend! This photo was shot in the Dower House at Boughton House. We went on a wonderful journey back in time shooting this. I adore the faded grandeur of this (genuine) vintage floral wallpaper. Click here to see more images from this shoot.
