Lidia & Edward // June, 2018 My photographer heart always feel inspired by the beautiful details and raw emotions. Lidia and Edward mastered the wedding planning genre :) They organised everything in less than 3 month - and they did a perfect job! They wanted to share their special day with their families and a handful of friends only, so they had a lovely, intimated day with a heartwarming civil ceremony at Bournemouth Town Hall. After all the official things, we jumped into our cars, ate our yummy vegan sandwiches (made by The Mad Cucumber team), and we went to The New Forest. Lidia and Edward chose an amazing spot there. They set up their all handmade(!) macrame there and took their vows for each other. It was the most beautiful secret we've ever witnessed - and we didn't even hear anything :) This made it more mysterious! We spent only a few hours together on that day - but it was a perfect day! It was a relaxed, carefree wedding with no drama (Lidia left the bouquet at the hotel before the ceremony, but her bridesmaid run back and saved her but that's it) :) They spent real, quality time together and their beloved ones, too. No unnecessary occurrence, no pressure to meet any expectation, just the pure connection, emotion and love. They carefully planned all the meaningful details and worked with amazing suppliers. You can find their list below. I can't be grateful enough for White Chalet Studio for recommending me to them! Lidia, Edward: I wish you as deep and joyful marriage as your wedding was!

This year is a bit different for me - in a really good way.
I've learnt a lot from the past few years - I mean not only about photography, but about myself. My lifestyle is more pure for now - we've started practicing yoga, to make a better connection with myself again, changed my attitude with the food and the objects around me. Everything is more simple, and more meaningful. I'm still so far from where I'd liketo be, but definitely on my way now. I'm trying to give back to the community from where I get the most, so I was thinking about a few different projects. The most important in our head at the moment is the upcoming styled shoot which is all about zero-waste and vegan weddings. The goal is to inspire the couples and the industry as well to create breath-taking weddings, but in an eco-friendly, sustainable way. In the middle of the planning of the styled shoot, Lidia and Edward contacted us to capture their intimated boho-vegan wedding this summer. I was over the Moon! This is something, that really close to my mind and heart. So we jumped into the engagement session as soon as we could - and of course, it was a rainy day :) All of us were a bit unsure what to do, dig in, or postpone the shoot - but at the end, we are beyond grateful with the result :) Lidia, Edward - this is your month, enjoy every single moments of it :) Love, Gabe Save the date, guys, as 11th Febr will the most romantic day of 2018!

We've heard it 18 times in 2017 :) New Years Eve is coming soon, so we think this is the right time to summarize this year and show you the best wedding moments of it.
What is the best means to us? All the natural, honest, raw, emotional and carefree moment is a pleasure to capture for us. So please enjoy the following moments and fill up your soul by them with inspiration :) We wish you all the best for 2018 and see you soon, Szandra&Gabor We were in a cafe one afternoon where after the well-deserved latte, Szaffi started to have fun and I started to take pictures of her.
A couple of minutes later I noticed that two guys at the table behind ours were in a deep conversation — they were handsome and sympathetic. Then, at once they had a cuddle and I instantly felt that I want to know their story, get to know their faces and feelings better. When I made eyecontact with them, their reaction was positive so (I, the Cowardly Lion) asked Gabor (no, not Oz) to ask them if they would be okay with me doing a short session with them some day that week. They have let me take a few portraits in that very moment and they opened up so quickly. That felt pretty good. We could not wait for the seaside session! We woke up for a rainy day — that was the only one the whole week — but it did not wash away our good spirits. As soon as we arrived with Szaffi on my back it felt as if we have always known each other. We spent a few hours together this way with Niels and Stephen. The guys told us their story, and we listened happily. Szaffi kept on explaining stuff to them, waving to them just as she does with anyone else she finds nice. Then it hit me, how many times I heard in "disputes" about homosexual people in Hungary that "okay, let them be, but only if they "do their homosexuality" between their own four walls, because then what will I say to my children?!" And then happiness fell onto my heart, light as a feather, that we don't have to say anything to Szaffi because she sees and feels everything she needs to know. We are grateful for the cameras in our hands for bringing the essence of human relationships so close for us. Szandra The wedding of Claudia and Steve has opened the wedding season for us this year. As usual, we were in a long correspondence with the couple in the last few months in order to understand each other perfectly without words on the day of their wedding. One of the best things is always the conversation about the dress for the stylist in me. When Claudia wrote that she set off to buy the dress with her friend, there was a nice tingling of excitement in the back of head. Then she told me that she had a blue dress in mind for their really intimate and small wedding and my heart started to beat a bit faster. I couldn’t wait to see her in her extraordinary wedding dress. As we were asked to capture the moments of preparations at her house, I was lucky to be amongst the few who saw Claudia first. There were many touching, honest moments we were lucky to experience in that few hours together. We are really grateful for being a part of it. After the ceremony in Bournemouth Town Hall we went on to a beautiful location, Chewton Glen with the newly weds and their family. Picture an elegant, simple venue full of life that provided the perfect place for the sophisticated wedding of Claudia and Steve. It was easy to warm up to them and it was a lovely experience to meet them in person after the wedding and look through their photos together. We wish you lots of happiness in many years coming and we cannot wait to see you again soon, Szandra and Gabor Getting Ready Ceremony |
