December wedding: Sunset @ 15:55 – Ceremony @ 17:00
Guess we’re shooting this one in the dark then :/
First ceremony at Goodwood House to take place in the Tapestry Room, with the wedding breakfast in the Egyptian room.
An intimate affair.
The three most precious people in my life. Angela + Freja + Bump
Busy. Moving the Janda Office and decorating in preparation for the arrival of the new Team Janda member in January. Migrating editing from PC to Mac, still have 7 weddings from 2011 to blog, several albums in the production line and a few more weddings to shoot before our last of the year on the 23rd December.
After reading photographer Jonas Petersons Mason Jar Manifesto, thought we’d try to strip it back a little.
Here’s a post with no Photoshop. It’s simply what Angela and I saw on the day.
Goodwood sparkled in the October sunshine. So did James and Andrina.
Here’s the story.
A Scandinavian beauty meets a handsome Italian in Holland. They fall in love and propose marriage in the picturesque village of Limone on the shore of Lake Garda in Italy. Family and friends will travel from Finland and Padova to celebrate with them, and we’ll be there to capture it. Happy days :)
Met up with Marjaana and Matteo over a cappuccino in Carluccios. On our walk around the park we got to know each other better, and took a few relaxed portraits. Next time we meet will be in May 2012 in Malcesine. So excited about this one.
The phone rang.
“Could we photograph a track day at Goodwood motor circuit for the top guys from Moët?”, asked Serena.
Two of our favorite things, fast cars and fine Champagne.
Count us in!
No corn in the field. No water in the river.
But there’s love in the barn. (and space hoppers in the garden :)
Just before Simon and Sophie arrived for their engagement portrait shoot, I was out walking our dog. I met a man walking his dog. He looked some what familiar. We got chatting and he introduced himself as Michael Brandon, an actor who was renting one of our neighbours houses whilst he appeared at Chichester Festival Theatre. Those over a certain age would recognise him as Lt James Dempsey from the 80′s cop series, Dempsey and Makepeace. He mentioned a bicycle that he needed to sell before the move back to London, a Schwinn Tango tandem he’d brought over from the States. I bought it on the spot and used it an hour later in Simon and Sophies shoot. Serendipity.
They say you should try something new everyday. Simon and Sophie were tandem virgins when they arrived, experts when they left. And Sophie, about that smile, what’s not to love ;)
Hey both,
Just a quick thank you for our photo shoot yesterday, I think it will make such a difference on the day and it was SO much fun! The bike was awesome, you guys were awesome! I loved it all! Can’t wait to see the photos!
Hope you get to go out on the bike soon :-)

Seem to be lots of pregnant women around at the moment. Think back 9 months or so, remember all the snow we had? Guess there were lots of couples stuck at home and unable to get into work, having to think of things to do to pass the time ;)
Chrissi and Brad live close to us on the Sussex Riviera and their son, Luca, is the same age as our daughter. Only a few more weeks and he’ll be a big brother. Hope you’re ready Luca!
Engagement portraits are all about getting to know each other. Charlotte never stops smiling / giggling / laughing. Dan, as well as protecting Queen and Country, has the super power ability to see through women’s clothing. Great for him, but on the the face of it not that useful to the rest of us, but I wonder if I give him a camera…get the idea?
Wedding next month at Sandhurst Military Academy.
