Kayley and James' pre-wedding shoot at Botany Bay

The phrase ‘it is a small world’ is really suited for how I met Kayley and James; Kayley previously taught my son’s dance lessons and shortly afterwards, I photographed her mum’s wedding!

Following this, Kayley and James booked me to capture their special day, which is planned for St. Augustines in spring 2023. In advance of their big day, I met up with them at Botany Bay for a pre-wedding shoot.

Being mid-September, and given the fact it had rained relentlessly all week, I was a bit apprenhensive on the prospects of a late summer golden hour but we were absolutely blessed with the weather!

We spent an hour or so with them along the Kent coastline, capturing some really relaxed portraits as the sun started to set.

I can’t wait to see these guys next April for their special day, but in the meantime, here are a few of my favourites from this session!
