Summer weddings at Syon Park, Syon House


With the temperature below zero here in London, it's hard to believe that just a few months ago we were enjoying some wonderful weather. Smell that lavender! Close your eyes and you're in Provence.

We're just finishing Gwen and Cyrus' Jorgensen album from their Syon Park wedding. They live in the States so it's good to have broadband to preview the album design long distance. We're finding that more and more couples are choosing to marry in England though they live abroad. Their yen or euros might well go further here.

Our biggest regret of the year? Maybe we should have listened to our Turkish banker bride Asli who told us before her wedding last January that the emplyees at her bank had been told to sell all their sterling and convert it into euros. That bank definitely has a crystal ball.

But then, if you're job involves taking photographs at such a dream wedding location as Syon Park, perhaps it's just as well we stayed put.

SWPP conference Hammersmith


Any serious professional photographer needs to update his or her skills, contacts and products. January is an ideal time; we're not photographing weddings every weekend and the major suppliers visit the SWPP conference to showcase new products and educate us.

The Society of Wedding and Portrait Photographers annual convention in Hammersmith, just a couple of miles from our studio, is a must attend event each year. Photographer Mark Cleghorn will give a full day seminar which Godfrey is looking forward to.

See you there - and we'll report back on our blog.
