London Town was calling!  I did a quick pit stop to London before my trip to France and I caught up with past brides and future brides!

I was looking forward to having this lovely couple in front of my lens in the full swing of Autumn!  What a joke!  England was having one of their best summers and who would have believed that the sun was out and the flowers were still blooming!  All my winter clothes stayed at the bottom of the suitcase!

cute couple in London  Iwan and Leandri are now living and working in London.  Living abroad will test most relationships but this one had strong foundations from the very beginning and they have become a very strong and united partnership.  Their love and respect for one another is obvious to anyone who meets them.

Leandri was absolutely gorgeous on her wedding day but I have to admit, she has matured into an amazing beauty.  She is one of those ladies whose beauty shines from within!  I truly felt as if I had a supermodel in front of my lens!couple outside St Pauls Cathedral in Londoncouple on the steps of St Pauls Cathedral, London couple on the steps of St Pauls Cathedral, London

As anyone who has been to London knows, there are always tourists around and St Pauls Cathedral is probably one of the busiest tourist attraction due to the wedding of Lady Diana Spencer all those years ago. Luckily though, if you walk around St Pauls you will find spots that are not as busy and its easier to do a photoshoot.couple on the steps of St Pauls Cathedral, London couple on the steps of St Pauls Cathedral, London couple on the steps of St Pauls Cathedral, Londoncouple on the steps of St Pauls Cathedral, London couple on the steps of St Pauls Cathedral, London couple on the steps of St Pauls Cathedral, London couple on the steps of St Pauls Cathedral, London couple outside St Pauls Cathedral in London couple outside St Pauls Cathedral in London couple outside St Pauls Cathedral in London couple outside St Pauls Cathedral in London couple outside St Pauls Cathedral in London couple outside St Pauls Cathedral in London couple outside St Pauls Cathedral in London couple in front St Pauls Cathedral, London cute couple in Red Telephone box in Londoncouple in front St Pauls Cathedral, London cute couple ordering an uber in London cute couple walking on Tower Bridge London cute couple in front of London Tower Bridge cute couple in front of London Tower Bridge cute couple in front of London Tower Bridge beautiful girl in Londoncute couple in front of London Tower Bridge cute couple in front of London Tower Bridge cute couple in front of London Tower Bridge cute couple in front of London Tower Bridge cute couple in front of London Tower Bridge autumn in Londoncute couple in front of London Tower Bridge cute couple in front of London Tower Bridge cute couple in London beautiful girl in London

I have always had an amazing time in London.  I can’t believe it was only a year ago that I was last here with my husband and had toured the  Cotswold and Oxford.  Its amazing how much changes in a year.  Last year we were living in Dubai.  We travelled to London and ended up meeting up with Suzanne, my friend from Dubai ….and a year later, we are back in Cape Town and Suzanne is now living in London and graciously hosted my sister and myself during our stay in London.  How small the world has become, and how fortunate I am to have friends around the world!  I count myself very blessed!
