Jasmin & Ben – Brighton Portrait Shoot
ByMona Ali November 20, 2014November 20, 2014
Jasmin & Ben won a portrait shoot with me from a competition last winter and we decided to wait for some summer sunshine to meet up as they were keen to do an outdoors shoot on the beach. So we did our Brighton Portrait shoot in July on a perfectly gorgeous summer’s day. Jasmin & Ben met through their mutual love of breakdancing and…

Goodwood Wedding Photography
ByMona Ali October 10, 2014January 4, 2017
Denise & Stuart’s summer wedding took me to The Kennels at Goodwood for the first time where they had opted for a small intimate wedding at this very stylish and quirky venue that’s ideal for smaller celebrations. Set in the beautiful rolling Sussex downs and part of the larger Goodwood Estate, the 3rd Duke of Richmond built a grand kennel…

Planning your wedding photography – the engagement or pre wedding shoot
ByMona Ali October 8, 2014
Planning your wedding photography – the engagement or pre wedding shoot – I really enjoy meeting and getting to know couples that have booked me for their weddings on their engagement or pre-wedding shoot.

ByMona Ali September 30, 2014March 6, 2017
Lee-Anne & Damien were planning a 1920’s inspired party for their Worthing wedding – they married quietly at the registry office the day before, so for them, it was all about the party! A big party really for their nearest and dearest and they chose a big field in Kinsgswood Stables, Findon to host it! Their inspiration came from…

Confetti. To have or not?
ByMona Ali September 16, 2014October 8, 2014
Confetti. To have or not? So why a post about such a humble small part of a wedding day? Well, I LOVE the confetti throw it’s as simple as that. The tradition seems to stem from an ancient pagan rite of showering the happy couple with grain for a fruitful marriage. And the Italian nobility…
