Matthias & Dagmar: LOVE shoot... A cosy coffee and mooch around Marylebone, followed by a crisp Autumn walk in Regents Park, London

Oh baby it's cold outside.... Brrrr! Autumn has certainly made it's chilly presence known and it's stunning beauty too. It is such a breathtaking time of year, blessed with a gorgeous quality of light for photography. So perfect for cosy LOVE shoots such as this one featuring cool cats Matthias and Dagmar. It was a real pleasure to mooch about a Marylebone mews or two, chit chatting along the way, discovering little gems of London streets hidden away from the main thoroughfare.  Fuelled by a coffee or three, served in eye catching blue cups from a favourite cafe of Matthias and Dagmar called the Workshop Coffee, we hot footed it around London town. I'm a real old romantic at heart so it's always a treat for me to hear how my couples met. Well it was love at first sight for Dagmar and Matthias whose gaze was held at a Photography Exhibition at The Royal Academy of Arts. With art and colour in mind we designed the shoot around coloured doors and Autumn foliage. Dagmar and I share mint as a favourite colour so we cooed over a fab painted door we had researched and then discovered! We then cavorted around Regents Park in the crisp air as the sun set taking in the Autumn colour. Such a beautiful day setting the scene for a cosy Autumn full of roaring fires, hot chocolate and snuggling up to a loved one. Huge thanks to Dagmar and Matthias for such a fun afternoon and Alice for assisting me. LOVE x
