Why I love my job!

With album season in full flow, this is the time of year when the design side really takes off! No matter how fantastic your photos are, if they are not displayed beautifully, or heaven forbid put away in a drawer, then you are not making the most of your investment in a good photographer...!
It can take 2 or 3 days to design an album, but the results are worth every moment. I know the temptation is to think you can do it yourself, and sometimes it does work, but unless you have the design skills, and the time to put things together properly, you may end up with disappointing results.
Anna & Steve got married at The Elvetham. Alot of fun and friends was the order of the day, with some great group shots, see
for their wedding in full.














Helen & Carl got married at Weybridge registry office, and their reception was at The mandolay in Guildford. I love this photo below where Carl is really concentrating on getting that ring on Helen's finger!





Some interesting stairway shots. Love the graphic lines, and round lights. It's important to have recci'd the venue beforehand, that way I know where the best places are, in all weathers without wasting time on the day.

Gladys and Carlos had their magical day at Albury park. Its the second time I have been there, and is such a gorgeous venue. The weather was somewhat wet, but not that this affected the photos. Trees and specailly chosen paths and places enabled photos to continue outside, without anyone getting wet.

A change of outfit, ready for a blessing in the chapel in Albury's grounds.


All of these weddings, and more, can be found on the online albums page of my website www.schutters.com

Sam & Katie's wedding

Katie & Sam's wedding was held at Wotton House nr Dorking, wow! what a place!
It was a day with a difference, with some unique features including an American style 'reveal' where the bride and groom see each other before the ceremony, and both a civil ceremony inside; followed by a an outdoor blessing in the walled garden.
To top it off a full moon and some night time shots outside, very appropriate as Sam had also propsed by on a full moon. A fabulous day, great couple, and I thoroughly enjoyed it!
The reveal...!
Katie approached and tapped Sam on the shoulder...

Two weddings!

My apologies to my recently neglected blog! What with a house move, and a busy summer, time has been short for blogging. I do think it provides a useful insight into my style and approach though, so will persevere. Not only that but it is an opportunity for me to pick some favourite images from each wedding. The idea is that it is one or two images, but I always seem to have so many, i cannot narrow it down!

The following are from two recent weddings. Ana & Matthews was a spanish/english wedding, with half of the guests not speaking any english. Not a problem! Its amazing what alot of smiling and good humour can overcome!

Eva and Jason's wedding was a very relaxed, beautiful day. They had a marquee in his parents wonderful garden, and a morrocan theme to their marquee, and their menu! Delicious! All beautifully prepared by my husband's catering company!

Check out his catering website on:

Enjoy, I did!..

Wedding Charlotte & Nick

Congratulations Charlotte & Nick! A gorgeous day with only the threat of rain (nice dramatic skies!). The reception was held at The Elvetham. No matter how many times I visit that location ( I am lucky enough to be a wedding photographer recommended by The Elvetham), it never ceases to inspire me! They had a marquee due to the number of guests which was absolutely stunning, first time I have seen it set up for a wedding.


I love this photo, reflections and moody skies, what more could a photographer want! I try to get a real mix of flavours in my photography to include romance, fresh/fashiony type images, pure candids (they are really the story tellers of the day!) and arty. The above falls into the arty, great for wll prints, or stunning as page stoppers in an album!




Thank you Charlotte & Nick for being such a pleasure to photograph!
