Self Portraits

We heard the world was going to end so we went to the woods...

Scott and I are outdoors people and if we have time off can often be found exploring The New Forest; it is a magical place. We have foraged before, but never for edible mushrooms; just simply because it's fun! We have always wanted to go mushroom foraging with someone who knows...

Kranjska Gora, Slovenia

The weekend before last we (Scott, my sister and I) woke up in the middle of the night and headed down the winding country lanes to Bristol Airport to catch our flight to Salzburg. Unfortunately we didn't quite make it straight there as due to a technical fault with our...

Looking Back At 2011

What a year 2011 has been! We would like to say a huge Thank You to all the couples we have had the pleasure of working with. We introduced our Engagement Sessions for the first time and got to spend more time with our clients before their wedding day. Our couples...

Our Trip To Barcelona

Scott and I went to Barcelona at the end of August. We have both always wanted to see Gaudi's architecture and of course try some authentic Tapas. It was good to have a break after the peak wedding season (we still have a couple of weddings left this year) and...

Wiltshire Wedding Photography

Hannah & Luke got married on the 16th July in the deep Wiltshire Countryside. Their wedding ceremony was held at the village church in Donhead St.Mary. We had all kinds of weather on the day and unfortunately just as Hannah arrived the heavens opened, so we all made a dash for...

A Walk By The Sea

Last night Scott and I ventured to Canford Cliffs to have a play with a tilt and shift lens and hunt for some pretty beach huts for an upcoming wedding. Love that we are able to head to the beach after work, watch the sun set over Poole Bay, whilst...

A Relaxed Country Wedding

Months ago an old friend from my College days got in touch to ask if I would photograph his wedding; I was delighted to hear his news and replied with a yes straight away! You may remember this couple from their Engagement shoot, which we shot in local Bluebell woods. Their...

Spring Is On It's Way!

Scott and I took a break on Sunday to wonder around Kingston Lacy, Wimborne to see the Snowdrops coming through! Snowdrops have to be one of my favourite flowers (after Bluebells) and they are a happy reminder that Spring is on it's way!

Our Wedding

What an incredible year it has been for us! I went full time to focus on our photography business at the beginning of the year and I am pleased to say it has proved to be the best decision I could have made! We have photographed many beautiful weddings this year...

Blandford Forum In The Snow!

Scott and I ventured into the grounds of Bryanston School at the weekend to take in the snow. It was a winter wonderland down by the river and the light falling in the woods was magical! Merry Christmas from us at Lisa Dawn Photography!

Our Vintage Vacation

Scott and I had always planned to have another break (second half of our honeymoon) once the wedding season had simmered down a little. So after much searching for a romantic short break with a difference-I came across Vintage Vacations on the Isle of Wight. As soon as we saw...

Osborne House Wedding Venue

We visited Osborne House on the Isle of Wight, Queen Victoria's Palace by the sea and wanted to share some of our photographs of this stunning wedding venue with you! No other venue can offer such decadence and your own private beach! "This extensive estate has an exquisitely furnished house and...

Vintage At Goodwood

Scott and I went to the 'Vintage at Goodwood' Festival this year and what a treat it was. Celebrating 5 decades of British cool it truly was a unique festival. We enjoyed everything from dancing to rare groove and electro in an 80's disused warehouse to getting pampered 40's style. Not...
