Sunset Skateboarding

7/1/2020

0 Comments

 
This is a mix of my two hobbies, skateboarding and photography.  I've been wanting to do a skate related shoot for sometime but was holding off for the right location, setting and ideas.
When I saw this location I was totally inspired and confident I found that perfect spot I had been looking for.  I teamed up with my friend Nacho, who gladly played the role of photo model and together we made some epic shots.

Chelsea & Emerson

Chelsea & Emerson married 8th December, 2019 at St. Matthew's Chapel (Tal-Maqluba) in Qrendi.  This was followed by a reception dinner with family and close friends at Tarragon restaurant in St. Paul's Bay.

December weddings are tricky as you never know what Mother Nature is going to throw at you.  Luckily, on this day we couldn't have asked for better weather.  Blue skies and bright sunshine greeted us making the perfect setting for beautiful pictures.

Some of my favourites from the day can be seen below:

Ceremony & Reception:  Ramla Bay Resort |

Annie & Max were a fun couple who knew how to put on a good party.  They surrounded themselves with similarly lovely family and friends for their super September wedding.

It was difficult to choose favourites but here's a selection from the day...

Secret Elopement in Malta

8/3/2019

0 Comments

 
When you take away all the pomp and circumstance that comes with a wedding  and you strip it down to its bare bones, you're left with an intimate occasion focused only on the couple and  what matters most.

Helenna & Wesley came to Malta from Ireland together with their three boys for a secret elopement.  All the details were carefully put in place by PlannedbyTara.  The ceremony was held at Radisson Golden Sands Resort and this was witnessed by the couples sister and brother-in-law. Jacob Portelli played the violin.

After the ceremony was over I took everyone up the road to Għajn Mixkuka Tower for a photo shoot  in one of my favourite settings.

Ashley is from the USA and she followed a job to Malta.  She's an Astronomy graduate and previously worked for NASA.  She's also got 11 siblings, how interesting is that!
The brief was to shoot in the streets of Valletta in the mid afternoon sun.  We started near Hastings and worked our way across Valletta over to East Street.
The following are some of my favourites from the shoot:

December and twinkling lights.

1/8/2019

It's December. Christmas is round the corner, the air is cool and the streets are abundantly decorated.  A photo shoot plays out in my mind....

I teamed up with Evangeline, an English girl with Maltese roots. She's a talented model and had the perfect look for the shots I had in mind.

Mosta was the location of choice as it offered a good mix of street lighting and variety to pull off a nice, creative shoot.  

Here are some of my favourites:

Creative sparks fly when working with an internationally published, professional model.  We did a fashion, editorial style shoot in the streets of Valletta. 

Hajni is Hungarian but lives in England where she pursues her modelling career. She has been featured in numerous publications and has also worked with some great photographers.

These are a few of my favourites from the shoot:

Allison & Toni Pre Wedding - Engagement Shoot

5/9/2018

0 Comments

 
  "April showers May flowers".....and so the saying goes.  Oh boy did it shower!  It must have rained for a good twelve hours prior to this shoot.  Alison was determined to proceed regardless and good thing we did because as soon as we got out of our cars the skies opened up.

The location for this shoot is the beautiful Milorda Gardens in Sa Maison.  Alison & Toni are a dog loving couple and they chose to bring one of their elder dogs to include him in the memories we created together.

Valletta photo shoot with Sveta.  Originally from Russia and now living in Malta, she's an artist, model and photography student.

A glorious sunset was a bonus on this shoot. A great way to do an end of summer shoot.

​Recently I was very fortunate to be part of a real life fairytale wedding. The location - Masseria Potenti in Puglia, Italy.  
This idyllic Masseria is nestled amongst hectares upon hectares of olive trees and vineyards and a short drive from the historic town of Manduria.

Have a look through my images of this stunning place and equally beautiful couple.

​If you're thinking of planning your wedding at Masseria Potenti feel free to contact me and I'll be more than happy to guide you.  More importantly I hope you consider hiring me to capture your 
perfect day in Puglia.

As your wedding photographer I will capture all the right moments as they happen in a creative and stylish, journalistic fashion.
