Agne & Laurynas engagement session, St. James park, London

Mon, 26 Jul 2010 12:45:45 +0000

Agne, Laurynas and little Austeja are good friends of mine who asked me to photograph their engagement/ pre-wedding session. It took place in St. James park, near Buckingham place on a sunny Sunday in May. The park was quite busy with many tourists wondering around:), but we managed to escape it and do some great and fun shots… Austeja as well as her parents were joy to photograph as they were determined to get best out of it to remember even after their Big Day!

I have delayed posting these images on my blog as per their request. They wanted to show them on their wedding day as a surprise to their family and guests at the wedding reception.

Many congratulations guys, with your wedding, now formally wife and husband!!! All the best for the future!

I had an honour photographing the wedding of a great couple Liudmila and Pavel. They are originally from Estonia, but their ceremony and party attracted many international friends and guests. Their wedding car was exceptionally nicely decorated with many live flowers.

After formal ceremony at Baptist church we headed to the wedding reception where the party took place.

We have done many great shots at some popular locations in London such as London Eye,

Tower Bridge and other. Liudmila and Pavel were pleasure to photograph as they loved it. Bride to be appeared very elegant and cheeky at the times? in some photographs.

Liliana and Vasili’s russian wedding in West London

Sat, 01 May 2010 12:11:23 +0000

It was the wedding according to the Moldavian lively traditions and the groom had to answer lots of questions and pass the test in order to get the hand of his wife to be Liliana. For incorrectly answered questions he had to pay the money.

On the way to the church we stopped at Trafalgar Square and by Big Ben for some pics.

Religious ceremony took place in the beautiful Russian Orthodox Church in Kensington, London. It was followed by the party at Kings Arms in Acton, London. Entertainment was great, with a live band and lead singer Alexa Pol (outstanding voice!) taking the stage, following by the belly dancer who’s appearance was truly celebrated ! First dance and cutting the cake summed up the day for already the wife Liliana and husband Vasili. All the best guys for the future!

I was thrilled I met many new and great people during this Merry Wedding!

Short trip to south of France – Toulouse and other towns

Tue, 27 Apr 2010 22:37:51 +0000

I went on short trip to south of France last week. The trip wasn’t photography related but I couldn’t resist not to take couple of shots of a beautiful landscape of France. After 15 hours of driving from London I stopped in a very charming little town called Agen to find a hotel . I was so tired that I couldn’t sleep for more than 5 hours as Redbull and coffee kicked in. So I picked up my camera and went for a little walk in the centre of Agen.

Here are some images from it.

Baby Samy’s and his family photo session in our Hendon home studio

Tue, 13 Apr 2010 21:40:46 +0000

Samy is only 7 weeks but was pretty happy to pose for me when it came to lying on his tummy on the beanbag. His parents are originally from Algeria and well travelled in Europe before they settled in the United Kingdom.

It took a bit of effort to keep Samy off his dummy but by the end of the session it was unavoidable as he was getting very tired.

Even almost standing Samy was falling asleep:)

Deep into the sleep with his favorite toy:) Bless him….

Samy’s parents requested a few photographs with our daughter Amelija too. Don’t they look sweet together, do they?
