Hattie + Peter
Upwaltham Barns is becoming one of our firm favourite venues. We had the pleasure of shooting Hattie + Peter's wedding there in March – with Spring in the air, champagne in the glasses and everyone suited and booted (Hattie in a gorgeous Jesus Piero gown), it made for a fantastic day of...
India + Nick
This English country garden wedding is full of the biggest laughs you've ever seen – from ceremony to speeches to the first dance, it was a giggle-fest, start to finish. Held at the Olde Bell in Hurley, Berkshire, India and Nick hosted a wonderful easy-going day of genuine and straightforward love...
Jo + Mikey
Mikey started his wedding day with dip in Hampstead Heath Men's Pond with a group of his best mates and family – an activity I had never photographed before! Luckily the sun was shining and everyone seemed game enough to plunge in the cold water. The rest of the day was a blast from there – fun...
Cat + Oli // Upwaltham barn wedding
After a fun engagement shoot in Paris last January, I was looking forward to seeing Cat and Oli again on their wedding day. Upwaltham Barns is becoming a favourite venue of mine – this was my third wedding there, and as a family-run business they really know how to run a wedding day with...
Ally + Paul // Caswell House
Ally is the most organised bride, no, most organised person, we've ever met. Her wedding to Paul was our longest standing booking for photography for quite some time, and we also helped make their vision for their wedding invites and later the table plan and a few other bits and bobs for the day,...
Our year in pictures – 2015
It's been a year of firsts for Story + Colour – first engagement shoot in Paris, first Indian wedding, first wedding abroad in Cyprus, first trip to… Peckham. This little dream we had about owning our own business three years ago has really come to life and we're loving every minute....
Victoria + Adam
It's really exciting when someone asks for an engagement shoot in a part of London I've not had time to explore. When Victoria and Adam suggested their home borough of Peckham, I jumped at the chance, and was not disappointed. Vibrant and eclectic, we found many interesting locations including the...
Jessica + Sandeep
After Jessica and Sandeep’s English countryside civil ceremony on the Monday, I was really excited to see them again and shoot their Indian wedding…

Jessica + Sandeep
We met Jessica and Sandeep in a local burger restaurant when they were searching for their wedding photographer. The plan was for a Hindu ceremony in the Cotswolds, preceded by a small civil ceremony the week before. As time went on, the plans for the English civil ceremony grew, so that Jessica...
Sarah + Stuart
This felt like the perfect wedding to share on such a rainy Friday. Sarah and Stuart got married on August bank holiday. It meant a road trip for us from London to Devon, where we found the sun shining! The entire event was held at the Kingston Estate, in Staverton, near Totnes. The Georgian House...
Jo + Mikey
A highlight about shooting in the summer, is being able to do engagement shoots after the working day as the sun starts to fall across the city. The warm, hazy days produce beautiful light and warm glowing backdrops for my favourite kind of pictures. Jo + Mikey chose...
Sofya + Jamie
This summer (remember that?!), Sofya + Jamie had an intimate wedding ceremony at the Mayfair Library in London for close friends and family. It was such a sweet, colourful affair – from Sofya's floral headdress and dusky-pink knee-length lace dress, to the retro bunting, Mexican piñata, old school...
Lucia + Jukka
Last year, an old pal got in touch to say he was getting married and could we do the pictures. Of course the answer was yes, but the ‘yes’ was made even sweeter than usual by the fact it meant a trip to sunny Cyprus
Helen + James
The rain is pouring down outside. The guests are arriving and running from their cars into the pub entrance below. I’m watching from a bedroom window with Helen and her bridesmaids. There are a few worried looks but Helen
Kali + Thom
If an engagement shoot is any measure of the wedding then Kali and Thom's wedding was going to be fantastic. With a 1920's theme and set in the Farringdon's Artisan restaurant and bar it wasn't going to disappoint. After Kali and Thom had made their vows at Islington Town Hall, everyone jumped on...
Louise + Matt // The Londesborough
Louise and Matt got married in Stoke Newington Town Hall, with the celebrations held in the unofficial reception venue, The Londesborough pub, just minutes down the road. It was a lovely intimate day with a super relaxed atmosphere. Louise and Matt were great fun and...
Kali + Thom
It was cloudy and on the brink of rain when I met Kali and Thom but that wasn't going to stop us. After all it is January in England – it's not like we weren't expecting it. We made our way through Greenwich Park and up to the Meantime Museum, where we experienced a coffee/football incident that...
Cat + Oli // Paris engagement shoot
For me as a photographer, shooting an engagement shoot in Paris is a big deal and a definite high point in the life of Story and Colour. Unfortunately, my only experience of Paris is from at least 12 years ago, so we took our lead from Cat and Oli who had already planned our route, starting of...
Katie + Arber
Set in the beautiful Gate Street Barn with the sun shining I could tell this would be a great wedding. Hearing the wedding ideas on their engagement shoot a few months back, I was excited to see how things had panned out. I knew Arber was a comic book fan (sorry, Graphic...
Emma + Tom
2014 has been an epic year at Story + Colour and I couldn’t think of a better way to end it than with Emma and Tom’s beautiful barn wedding…
A year in pictures
Well, 2014 was certainly a whirlwind! Our year was jam-packed with absolutely beautiful weddings, and we felt so lucky to have been a part of each and every one – it has been such a privilege. Before 2015 kicks off with our first wedding in a couple of weeks, we wanted...
Courtenay + Rob
It was only when walking up to the poppy filled moats of the tower that I realised I have never been here before. Anyone who reads newspapers, watched the news or been anywhere near social media would have seen the sensation that is the poppy display and here it was, right in front of me, quite a...
Jane + Andrew
Jane and Andrew had a relaxed, informal wedding at their local registry office in Hertford, and then celebrated with an English tea party themed party in their back garden... and this is no ordinary garden. Their unique venue gave them the ability to decorate to their heart's content – full of...
