Awarded SE Region Under 5s Photographer of the Year '09

Young Kyreece, whom I spotted passing the studio with his parents and just had to photograph him in our South Croydon photography studioI am absolutely delighted to be awarded the prestigious title of South East Region under 5s Photographer of the Year.

On Monday evening, the well respected Fellow photographer, Dennis Hylander, judged the print competition for the Master Photographers Association South East Region over at Rowfant House.

After having a couple of procedures of my leg on Monday morning, I made my way over to Rowfant House to delivery my competition prints.  Unfortunately, I was unable to stay for the critique and judging, which has been reported to have been excellent, as Dennis critiques just about every image entered.

Late on Monday night, I received a PM from my lovely Lisa, who happens to be the UK Photographer for the Year, congratulating me on my win - which she had already pre-empted when she saw the images earlier in the day.

I'm honoured to have been awarded this title and would like to share the image that enabled me to receive it - meet Kyreece again...

Exactly how delicious is he? Thank you again Andrina for bringing him in, he was a delight to photograph.

shannon & zack's jamaican beach wedding

When I met Shannon & Zack on Thursday, I just knew that their wedding was going to be amazing. Despite circumstances beyond their control, four special people were unable to attend the wedding at the very last moment. It was emotional at the time, I'm sure, however, Shannon and Zack remained positive.

I was delighted to have such a laid back, relaxed couple who were happy to go with the flow and experience a wonderful destination wedding here in Jamaica.

Everything seemed to line up perfectly for Shannon and Zack on their big day; location was perfect, weather was perfect, company was perfect, they were perfect. Below is a rather large selection of images that tell their story... enjoy and share your comments...

carmen & wendell's jamaican gazebo wedding

On 12 December, I met Carmen and Wendell on the afternoon of their wedding.

Wendell was quite simply beaming - well, of course, he was marrying his lady that afternoon.

Carmen was amazing - so warm and welcoming, not to forget full of laughter and fun. The getting ready coverage in Carmen's suite was great, all the ladies preparing themselves for Carmen and Wendell's big day. Rosa was super - just like Carmen, she kept it real and in the spirit of the day.

I loved capturing the details, beautiful portraits of equally beautiful ladies and some truly special spontaneous moments.

The wedding itself was fun, lots of smiles, laughter and enjoyment - and I was the fortunate one who was able to capture it all - thank you Carmen and Wendell for choosing imageXperience for your wedding photography.

For those of you who haven't had the opportunity to preview the images in the private gallery, please enjoy a selection of images below...

a jamaica wedding - meet donna & peter...

On Saturday 21 November, Donna and Peter married their best friends - each other.

We only got to meet Donna and Peter on the Thursday before their wedding to introduce ourselves and what we had to offer.

Clearly both Donna and Peter were impressed with the intimately You™ album and Donna had indicated to me that she would love a session that afternoon.

With the wedding questionnaire complete, intimately You™ session booked, we were ready to ensure Donna and Peter's wedding photography experience was a complete imageXperience.

Enjoy the images...

Donna and Peter, thank you for choosing us to capture your day. Live your life and treasure the moments.
