So back to sharing now, here is are a few images from the wedding of Dionne and Christopher with a little edginess thrown in….

Later this month I’ll be flying out to beautiful island of Jamaica to kick start my 2012 wedding season, can I get a woop, woop!!!!!  So as I begin to prepare for my trip I was reminded of my last Caribbean wedding photographed on the tiny island of St. Martin.  It was a welcome break away from the UK and right in the midst of my 2011 wedding season.  After arriving on the island via Antigua and having settled into my beach side apartment I spent nine glorious days exploring and indulging in the unusual mix of Caribbean, French and Dutch cultures with the aid of my little rented Hyundai car.  I met Jessica and Andrew for the first time a few days into my trip and had a wonderful time getting to know many of their family and friends whilst sailing to a small uninhabited island for some snorkeling and lunch.  Their wedding followed a couple of days later filled with so much joy and emotion and took place at the stunning Mes Amis Villa on the french side of the island overlooking the sea.  Here are just a few spreads from their wedding album…

A have to mention a special thank you to Julie and Danny who recommended my services to Jessica and Andrew.  Their company Minty Slippers are one of the UK’s finest wedding filmmakers which you will see watching their short video of the wedding day -here-
