Lakeside Love.


First engagement photoshoot of 2012,  it's going to be a good year!

Sara and Gunter chose to spend a few hours in Hermance,  a quaint lakeside village on the banks of Lac Léman that has some beautiful little cobbled streets, old doorways and even a little beach, perfect for a winter photoshoot.  After a warming coffee and a chat we headed out into the crisp afternoon air for the shoot.  As you can see, there was not a flake of snow in sight, quite a difference from today's weather!  

The happy couple are getting married in 2 weeks and have chosen to work with Aude from One Fine Day who is helping to organise their special day,  I just know it's going to be fabulous!

Sugar and spice. Just all things nice.


I was absolutely delighted to share a stand at the recent  'Salon du mariage' in Geneva with the incredibly talented   Fernanda Silva Floral Designer and Catti Cohen of Atelier du sucre.  These two ladies are not only highly creative but they are both an absolute joy to spend time with. 

I have had the great pleasure to work with Fernanda on many an occasion this year and highly recommend her if you are looking for a floral artist for your wedding, her creations are just stunning.  Catti on the other hand makes some of the most fantastic cakes I have ever seen, it is amazing what she can do with sugar.  All the decorations (even the flowers) that you see on the cakes below are made 100% from sugar !   If, like me, you are rather partial to the bride and groom cake, you'll be happy to hear that Catti loves making these as 'personal' as possible,  so they really reflect you as a couple.  Delightful.

Mr and Mrs Jones.

Absolutely gigantic smiles were permanently on the faces of Laura and Alex for their delightful civil ceremony.  I hope that after looking at their photos you also have a huge grin on your face and that warm fuzzy feeling in your stomach, I sure do.

It is clear to see that they are a fabulous couple, full of life and just so relaxed and easy going.  Their civil ceremony was filled with laughter and giggles, it was an absolute delight to photograph.   Congratulations once again Mr and Mrs Jones,  you've definitely "got a thing going on" !

Homeward bound.

The picturesque church on the hill in Luins, in the middle of the lush green vineyards, with the most spectacular view over Lac Léman was where Cindie and Ronnie chose to have their wedding ceremony.  It was a real haven from the heat as the thick stone church walls provided a cooling atmosphere for their beautiful church ceremony,  which was conducted by one of the most fun and animated vicars I have seen,  he had the congregation in stitches!

It had been quite a journey for Cindie and Ronnie as they met in Australia and now live in Zurich, however Cindie grew up in Givrins, and they chose to return to her 'roots' to celebrate their wedding.  After the ceremony, the guests enjoyed a very pleasant aperitif in the grounds of the Château de Luins where the happy couple released some white doves, beautiful.  Later in the afternoon Cindie, Ronnie and I went for a little drive to take some couple photographs.  We made it to the lake just as the sun was setting and we shot some beautiful photographs of them bathed in golden light on the lakeside in Rolle.  Moments like that just make me smile.

Whisked off her feet.

Chrysline and Jean-David are getting married in June next year (yes, 2012) I do love organised couples.  They chose and booked me as their wedding photographer over 6 months ago which is very sensible as my 2012 is getting booked-up fast and we haven't even got to the end of this wedding season yet!  


Fans of everything that is culinary they had specifically asked to have some photos with some 'cooking utensils'  as they want to use some of the photos from the engagement photo-shoot for their wedding invitations (and their wedding is going to be rather food orientated!).   We had a lot of fun wandering around their village of Etoy,  through the vineyards and apple orchards and then we ended off the morning with a little bit of 'whisk jousting' in the village square, what fun!   Thanks again Chrysline and JD for choosing me to be your photographer.

L.o.v.e

Laugh, giggle and then laugh again was how Florence and Sebastien spent last Wednesday morning.   They had such fun on their engagement photo shoot that Florence nearly ended up getting an impromptu morning dip in the village fountain, courtesy of a rather cheeky Sebastien... I love it!   As we strolled around Saint Prex where they live, along the small cobbled streets, past beautiful old doorways and magnificent views of the lake there was really an abundance of choice of places to photograph, that coupled with the crisp morning light it was just perfect.


I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the lovely and very talented wedding planner Joëlle, of 'Marry Me' who is working with Florence and Sebastien to help plan their wedding, and who recommended me to be their photographer.  I am very excited to photograph their wedding on the 1st October which will no doubt be absolutely beautiful and tons of fun!
