Out of Africa - Personal Work

Recently I was lucky enough to spend a few weeks in Africa, specifically in Botswana and Namibia.  Our trip covered 3000 km  which we covered in self drive pick ups with roof top tents (we also stayed in some beautiful Safari Lodges, so didn't rough it every night!).

Our African Transport & Tent (bigger than it looks!)

I fell head over heels for Africa, the scenery, the people and the animals were quite simply incredible and of course a photographers dream!  I thought I would share some of my favourite images from the trip, hope you like them.

Clandon Park Wedding Photography - Alex & Nick's Pre Wedding Shoot

Alex and Nick are getting married later this month at the fabulous Clandon Park, where we are very happy to be recommended wedding photographers. Alex was pretty nervous about being photographed, so their pre wedding shoot was an ideal opportunity to break the ice!
