Vicky & Sam got married in the heart of the City on a late December’s day.
The ceremony took place in the beautiful church of St James in Clerkenwell, where the light glowed a golden kind of magic.
A routemaster, a spot of rain, and a gorgeous reception in Hawksmoor, Guildhall followed. What a beautiful day.
Thank you so much to Heidi Veitz for seconding on this one, a lot of love and thanks to Vicky and Sam for having us there. I wish you both all the joy and laughter in the world.
On a winter’s day, in the heart of the City.
Lovely, Kat :)February 3, 2013 – 5:51 pm
Gorgeous preview – Really love the B&W ones.February 3, 2013 – 6:17 pm
When I first sat down with Jane and Ben in a bar in South East London, and they told me of their wedding plans – a tipi, in December – I have to admit, I wasn’t quite sure how it would work out. December weddings are dark at the best of times, and though we photographers have the equipment to cope with it, the lack of light does come with it’s own set of challenges. So throw in a candlelit 5-tipi construction on a weekend that barely saw a break in the rain, and things had the potential to get a little bit interesting.
And yes, it was dark. And yes, it was raining. And yes, the tipi was slowly starting to sink into the ground. But I needn’t have worried, because it was beautiful. Cosy, joyful, fun and so, so beautiful.
A big thank you to Cristina Rossi for seconding on this one, and a massive THANK YOU to Jane and Ben for the most wonderful day. It was immense.
Wow what a beautiful wedding Kat! I love the details you have captured, and I love the fact that the tipi has a front door! You wouldn’t have known it was raining from these images, they are fab! xxJanuary 29, 2013 – 5:07 pm

SO, just in case you don’t follow me on FB or twitter, just to let you know that I’m organising a little wedding fair on the 2/3 March with fellow photographer Caro Hutchings.
It’s called the London Wedding Emporium and it’s in the Old Truman Brewery on Brick Lane.
We’ve got fab frocks and fun photo booths, super cute bow ties and creative caterers, glittery things and lots of scrumminess. It’s all about you and the people who are going to make your day special. No gimmicks, nothing fancy. No hard sales, no pushy tactics. Just a chance to chat, discover, laugh and enjoy the process of organising one of the most important days of your life.
You should come down, it’s going to be a good one :)
Awww, Lucy and Mike are just the loveliest couple and you know something? Now that the wedding’s over I miss Lovely Lucy’s emails dropping into my inbox now and again (she always managed to make me laugh! Must be the kiwi sense of humour :)).
The incredible coral dress was designed by Lucy herself, her sister’s bridesmaids’ dresses were made in New Zealand, the fur capes were made by Lucy’s mum, the cake topper was crafted by Lucy’s sister…a lot of love went into this wedding and I can totally see why. These guys are ace. I’m so happy the sun came out for them.
Thanks to Cristina Rossi for seconding on this one and thank you SO SO much to Lucy and Mike for being just plain brilliant. Love you guys! :)
This wedding made me smile – fabulous pictures, amazing dress and I love the fun cake topper! Congratulations xJanuary 25, 2013 – 12:49 pm
