Destination Wedding Photography at Key Largo in Monte Carlo, Monaco












With the wedding season almost over I'm finally catching up on my blog. Here are some images from one of my early summer destination weddings in France and Monaco with Frank from Monte Carlo Weddings (www.montecarloweddings.com). It was a wedding back in June at the private residence of Mr. Harley - Key Largo in Monte Carlo, Monaco. The venue is very intimate and is used mainly for events or small weddings. The flower arrangements went perfectly well with the azure colour of the sea which was even more vibrant blue colour on the sunny June summer day of this South of France wedding. The wedding though intimate was a glamourous one with the bride arriving with a helicopter at the heliport on top of the Key Largo residence. The wedding photography for this destination wedding was easy to handle as it was very intimate wedding and the bride was stunningly beautiful. You can't go wrong with a beautiful bride and a beautiful location in Monaco.

Indian wedding photography London







Indian wedding photography is always beautiful as the wedding clothes, the bridal make up, the bridal jewelery and all the details are so picturesque. I have photographed all the different types of religious ceremonies of an Indian wedding - Sikh wedding, Hindu wedding, Buddhist Indian wedding and Muslim Indian wedding - and in all the types of Indian weddings the brides had exquisite dresses.
A couple of months ago I've photographed a selection of Indian bridal dresses that were just breathtaking. The wedding hair and make-up were the fine work of Kolly Suchana www.suchana.co.uk who helped organise the photo shoot. She also carefully selected the bridal dresses which represented Indian wedding dress designs for the different seasons of the year as well as certain Indian regions. The girls (Tequila @VicioModelManagement, Julia, Mona) are all professional models. Julia was certainly natural in the wedding dresses and looked like a traditional Indian bride, but Julia and Mona looked very beautiful and their European features in the Indian bridal dresses were fascinating.
I now look forward to my next Indian wedding photography in London though the Indian weddings are usually quite big and they often take place outside London. However, no matter the location, I always look forward to be the wedding photographer at an Indian wedding.

Destination Wedding Photography on the French Riviera, Toulon







Here are a few wedding photos of Ana & Jean's destination wedding on the French Riviera in Toulon, just an hour ride by train from Nice and Cannes. I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful bride who was so at ease in front of the camera. It was a pleasure to do the wedding photography at venue La residence Cap Brun which had beautiful gardens and the view of the French Riviera was breathtaking. I think the shot with the red stairs inside the wedding venue is my favourite and I'm glad I managed to convince Ana & Jean to pose for me for 5 min to photograph them while the guests were enjoying the wedding cake. It will make a lovely spread in a wedding album. Every time I do a destination wedding I'm thrilled as it gives me the chance to explore new places. The Riviera of South of France is a particularly beautiful place for a destination wedding.
This destination wedding photography in Cote d'Azur was the first wedding I had this year of the many destination wedding photography jobs I had in South of France and Monaco.

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.
