Pregnancy Photography Session London

I believe the time of pregnancy is a very unique period in every woman's life and I think it's amazing to be able to capture these special moments through a pregnancy photography session. A few months ago I've photographed Maria and Rasheed a month before their baby was born. Maternity photography is a very intimate thing and I'm glad that Maria felt comfortable with me to photograph her during the last stage of her pregnancy as pregnancy photography in London has only recently started to be popular. I was planning to include Rasheed in the last set of photos, but he happily jumped in front of the camera and it was amazing how expressive he was in front of the camera when he was kissing Maria's tummy. So we turned the pregnancy photography session into a family photo shoot in the studio in London.
Maternity photography and pregnancy photography sessions are ideally done during the 7 and 8 month of pregnancy but I have recently had another maternity photography session in London where the girl was also in her last month of pregnancy and we still managed to do some lovely maternity photography in color and B&W.

Wedding Photography in Toulon, Cote D'Azur South of France

A month ago I photographed Ana & Jean wedding in Toulon, South of France. The couple was beautiful, the weather was lovely, with just the right amount of clouds for good wedding portrait photography, and the view of the South of France coast in Toulon was amazing, so I couldn't be happier that this was my first destination wedding photography on the French Riviera this year and there were several more destination weddings in Monaco and South of France to come. I arrived in Toulon the day before the wedding to check out the church St. Flavien and the wedding venue La Residence Cap Brun. Luckily the wedding planner Sandrine from Avalon Events Organisation kindly picked me up from my hotel so I just arrived by train from Nice where I spent a few more days relaxing after the wedding.

Studio Portrait Photography Session, London

A couple of weeks ago I had a portrait photography session in London for the portfolio book of the young model Balazs who is starting his career in modelling. We didn't have a lot of time to plan the photo session in detail and set a theme as I was running between getting ready for a destination wedding in South of France and editing some pregnancy photography shots and designing an album of another destination wedding in the French Riviera. So the session was quite spontaneous and improvised, but I think we got some lovely portrait shots in the London studio. The Black&White one is my favourite, though I guess it won't be chosen by booking agencies, but it will be one for my personal collection of B&W portraits. This week we will have another photography session with Balazs to create a street portrait photography look for his portfolio.

Engagement wedding photography Central London

A few weeks ago I photographed Ana and Jean engagement photography session in Central London.
We originally discussed to do the engagement photos in the Kensington gardens in London as they live nearby however on my way to meet them I saw this lovely yellow cinquecento parked nearby their house. I just loved the combination of the yellow and white of the car and the houses. I also love the more classical London engagement photos of Ana and Jean with the bikes and the typical white houses of Nottinghill area.
Ana and Jean are getting married in June and I'm delighted to do the wedding photography of their destination wedding in Toulon in South of France. With a beautiful couple like Ana & Jean and the magnificent views of South of France this destination wedding promises to be amazing and full of opportunities for beautiful artistic wedding photography. I can't wait to do my first destination wedding photography commission in South of France for this year.

Bar mitzvah Photography Lord's Cricket Grounds, Central London

It was fun and pleasure to photograph Theo's Barmitzvah in Cenral Lodnon. I have photographed the barmitzvah of Theo's brother Joel three years ago, so I was delighted to be asked by the family again to photograph Theo's bar mitzvah on his 13th birthday.
A barmitzvah photography is often a three day event with a rehearsal at the synagogue one day, a family dinner the next day and the barmitzvah day on Saturday.
The barmitzvah started with the service in the synagogue in Belsize Square followed by a big party in one of the suits in the Lord's Cricket Grounds in London. After a week of worry about how the weather will turn out on the weekend, the Royal wedding and Theo's barmitzvah were granted an amazing sunny weekend, which worked perfectly for the family photos.
After a few bar mitzvah photography jobs in Central London it's a pleasure to say that barmitzvah photography can be as artistic as a wedding photography when the boy or girl celebrating their bar mitzvah are eager to pose.
I look forward to the next opportunity of a barmitzvah photography in London.

Barmitzvah Photography at Lord's Cricket Grounds, London

Here is a slideshow of Theo's barmitzvah with the highlights of the day (it's a small resolution due to it's size).
Until three years ago when I photographed Joel's barmitzvah I was not familiar with the Jewish tradition of Barmitzvah or Bat Mitzvah or Barmi as people often call it. According to Jewish law, when Jewish children reach 13 years of age, they become responsible for their actions, and "become a Bar or Bat Mitzvah".
The Bar Mitzvah ceremony involves the young man or woman being called to read the Torah, at a Shabbat or other service when the Torah is read. The event is one of the most important events in the life of a Jew and the service in the synagogue is usually followed by a big party.

Destination Wedding photography in Grenada and the Grenadine islands

My latest Caribbean trip was to the Grenadine islands. This part of the world is always breathtaking with its colours, but having done many landscapes in colour I decided to try classic Black and White landscapes of the scenery of Bequia, Grenada and the Tobago Quays.
Grenada, St. Vincent and the Grenadines are well renowned for destinations weddings and honeymoons so while we were stationed at Grenada I had the opportunity to get in touch with Binta Patrick who is the wedding coordinator for True Blue Bay (www.TrueBlueBay.com). There are not many high end wedding planners in Grenada so Binta is one of the few people who can help with destination weddings in Grenada and the Grenadines. Hope the next trip to the Grenadines will be a comission for a destination weddings photography in the Grenadines.
