“With all the decisions and constant changes we had to make to our wedding plans in 2020, the best decision we made was to choose Taylor & Porter to document our micro wedding. Louise really took the time upfront to get to know us, our story and our style. In the run up to the special day, we really valued her input with her extensive experience and structured approach to preparing for the day. On the day, she struck the perfect balance between being patient with us and directive, always having a plan B if the weather turned. Behind the camera, she's a magician, capturing beautiful and intimate moments we couldn't even have imagined could be photographed.” - Christine & Clement
A London Micro Wedding at The Old Marylebone Town Hall /
Oana & Ryan travelled to London for a simple and chic micro wedding. They stayed in the comfortable surroundings of Flemings Hotel, Mayfair, (who also managed to accommodate their little dog Pablo), took a taxi to Marylebone Town Hall then finished their day with champagne and dinner at Wild Honey in St. James. The day was a very English winter’s day with a lot of rain but even the dark clouds couldn’t stop the obvious love that these two have for each other shining through.
“We are SO IN LOVE with every moment you captured on our day. Having seen your work previously we obviously knew how talented you were, but when you see those photos of yourself it's just different... you made us feel so comfortable and at ease. London, grey, rainy - but we wouldn't have it any other way. We will cherish these photos forever and we cannot wait to show our future children. We don't know what more to say apart from thank you for the most beautiful, artistic, and timeless photographs we could only have dreamed of, for capturing our love and happiness and for reminding us that we made the perfect decision in eloping and having you and your team there.” - Ryan & Oana

Yosemite Super 8mm /
In Autumn 2019 we travelled to California for work. During some down time we managed to visit Yosemite National Park. It was extraordinarily beautiful and I made this little film of my assistant Maddison and her fiancé Kaas exploring all it’s wonderfulness.

Santa Fe Adobe House Home Tour /
I had the great pleasure of staying with an old friend of mine Emily Factor recently in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Emily is a Textile Designer and Founder of Sixteen Cyprus. We met years back in London when we both attended the University Of The Arts. Emily’s traditional Adobe home in Santa Fe, owned by Chris Richter & Todd Davies had been remodelled and designed - using mainly up-cycled materials & furnishings found locally by Melody Weir and we spent a happy day photographing all the details and design.

I am a professional wedding planner and my wedding photography was of the utmost importance. Louise has an amazing ability of making everyone feel at ease, and we loved the way that she let the event dictate the photo rather than the other way around. She has a calming presence, she worked quickly, took full advantage of our venue, and captured some amazing moments in photography and videography that we will cherish forever. In the months leading up to the wedding, Louise was responsive, insightful and very easy to work and communicate with. We absolutely love our wedding photos and videos and couldn't recommend Louise highly enough. - Jenny
Mykonos is meaningful both to Chris’s family and to the couple, so when it came time to choose a location for their wedding the choice was an obvious one for them. It was important for them to have their wedding in Greece to honour Chris’s family’s heritage and also to introduce the bride’s family to this idyllic world that has become so central to the couple’s life together. Chris also proposed in Mykonos atop a scenic view on Profitis Ilias at the peak of their morning hike. Later that trip, the groom’s mother introduced the couple to the wedding venue, a family friend’s farmstead just a few blocks from the groom’s parents’ home. The stunning venue hosts a major annual Panyieri, but Chris and Jenny’s nuptials marked the first time that the venue ever hosted a wedding.
Jenny is an event producer and designer for Bash Please. With much experience in the wedding industry, Jenny could visualise her wedding and knew how to overcome the obstacles of planning a wedding abroad. She wanted the design of the wedding to be an extension of her established light, tonal style. It was important for the wedding to feel understated and special, and for all the design elements to have a purpose that seamlessly integrated with the natural environment. The bride wanted the colour story to align with the colours naturally found on the land, sea and architecture of Mykonos: whites, creams, stone, terracotta, sand, olive, and hints of blue.
The couple wanted to incorporate Jewish and Greek Orthodox traditions: for the bride breaking the glass and dancing the Hora, for the groom donning the Stefana and dancing the Hasapiko. According to Jewish tradition, the groom steps on a glass at the end of the wedding ceremony to represent the idea that the couple’s bond should be as difficult to break as it would be to put back together these pieces of shattered glass. According to Greek Orthodox tradition, the couple wear wedding crowns, or Stefana, to symbolise the glory and honour being bestowed on the couple. These symbolic crowns are joined by a ribbon, which symbolises the unity of the couple.
