Faves of 2018
Unposed & Joy filled Moments – My Faves of 2018
It’s that time of year when I crack open my memory bank (aka my big daddy hard drive) and take a look back over everything I’ve done over the last twelve months to review what adventures my camera and I have had! I can tell you, it’s been a cracking year, folks. 2018 was good to me; I met some truly lovely, interesting people, visited some amazing places and – to top it off – gave birth to a fabulous baby girl. A new little sister for my son and an entirely new adventure for us as parents. My photography and my family are such proper, genuine sources of joy to me. Bringing a new baby into the house has highlighted this to me all over again – she’s a little one-woman joy machine and I am loving it.
I think joy and the bringing of it sits at the heart of my job above anything else. No matter what a couple is going for on their wedding day, real, unbridled joy is always at the centre of it all. I see it in abundance at every wedding I shoot, in every unposed frame; a dad weeping as his daughter dances with her new husband for the first time, a groom roaring with laughter as his best man tells THAT anecdote from school, a little flower girl’s face when she’s given her special shoes to wear for the first time. Call it what you like: happiness, giddiness, delirium…I call it joy.
As ever, my year has been all about the characters, the fun, the colour (oh my GOSH the colour) and the candid moments that make your wedding days so unmistakably ‘you’. I wanna say a MASSIVE thank you to all my couples. Having your trust and permission to do my thing has been such a blast and something that I never, ever take for granted. We’ve laughed, cried and sweated hard together (how HOT was that summer?!) and, hand on heart, I wish we could do it all over again. Here’s to 2019, let’s hope it’s bursting with as much joy as 2018. It’ll be a tough act to follow.
If you have enjoyed looking through this post and you like the sound of me and my camera coming along to your wedding then do get in touch. I have some availability left for 2019 and my books are open for 2020 too. If you are a couple wanting fab, characterful and real pictures of you having a great time from a laid back and unobtrusive photographer – then I’m your girl!

I don’t think I’ve enjoyed looking through a ‘Best Of’ more! Bursting with humour, personality, colour and good times as always. One heck of a round up Mrs!! Take a bow 🙂
Fanflippintastic! Loved looking at every single frame. So much joy, colour, love and fun.xxx
Love your work Jordanna! Can’t believe you shot a lot of these pregnant! What a great job.
LOVE IT! Pure joy in every frame! If this doesn’t make you want to get married then nothing will!! Bloody great ;O) xx
Clean, Crisp, Colourful and chock full of Joy, Characters and Fun. LOVE how you have kept to 100% colour..its like looking in the window of a sweet shop (except for them B+W striped ones???? cant remember what they are called)
Anyway its great
Bye
i like these + i think you’re good at photography.
Yes cuz love that Colgate flavour. So fresh! So much love for you and all that you do pal. That 2nd to last shot of M of course makes this collection exceptional x
Wow Jordanna! You’re like a fun magnet. So many great moments.
Yes J, I don’t think I have seen one yet with this much energy, colour, love, vibrance and laughter that is so so consistent throughout this collection.
You have a wonderful eye and your timing is absolute class – This collection made me smile throughout!!
Your amazing!!
Damo
What a round up, and what a year! A stunning collection of frames Jord, loved scrolling down and smiling back at the screen!
Wow you always know how to capture the “moments” at weddings and I love that you have such a unique perspective on the wedding day, how you see it really is something else. Super talented lady, loved looking at these. Xx
Amazing!!! I want all of this in my life, all of the time. Fun to a different scaaaaaale. You have smashed 2018, especially with the birth of the newest Marston. So much love xxx
So much fun. Exactly what I’d want if I were getting married again, all the humour, loads of personality, a lovely edit. Superb!!!
Ah what an amazing collection, Jordanna. So many adorable moments,. Your clients are very lucky to have you x
So so love your work Jordanna! I had a blast looking through these. The one with the dropped groomsmen is amazing….all the guys laughing and the girls looking shocked / concerned :-)))
A riot of colour and humour, a real assault on the eyes, in a good way! I love how you see things and the level of energy your photos deliver.
straight up class! so much fun – phenomenal collection. I love the face down groomsmen in the grey suits, images with little context are always my favourite.
