The end of the year has arrived and what a fantastic year it has been for Jodie Chapman Photography. 2009 has been the most successful yet in terms of numbers of clients and achieving that elusive dream ~ job satisfaction. I graduated from the Bespoke programme run by the prestigious Annabel Williams studio and was...

~ felix ~ baby shoot ~
On a recent trip to see my brother and his family, I took along my camera and captured some photographs of baby Felix, who has just turned one year old. I photographed my nieces back in March, and this time it was the turn of their baby brother. With those gorgeous big brown eyes, beautiful...
~ Pre-wedding shoot…New York City ~
Last week I had the amazing opportunity to photograph some clients in my favourite city, New York. Emily and Michael are getting married next July and the original plan was to stage the shoot around the City of London, where they both work. However, as Michael and Emily were spending a month in NYC for...
~ back to the city ~
A couple of posts ago, I mentioned how much I wanted to get back to New York. Well, a couple of weeks have passed…and I’m here. It’s been a busy year and G and I haven’t had a proper holiday since California last year, so we decided to bite the bullet and go for a...
~ kate & chris ~ i will ~
When I first met Kate at a wedding fair at the start of the year, I was bowled over by the fact that she had travelled down from London, mainly to meet me and see some more of my work. Apparently she had been reading the blog and saw my post about exhibiting at the...

anne & michael say…{i do}
A couple of months ago I photographed Anne and Michael’s wedding at the gorgeous Allington Castle. Ever since seeing the venue at the engagement shoot, I had known it would make a stunning wedding location. The weather played a part by giving us a beautiful September day, with lots of lovely natural light everywhere.
Here are...
fresh-faced website…all about weddings
When I originally set up my official website a couple of years ago, I filled it with images from some of my earliest weddings and shots from personal travels around the globe. The Personal gallery included photographs I had taken in my brother’s gorgeous Art Deco bathroom in New York, shots in the streets of...
bold & beautiful {cosmo bride}
Once again, it is my privilege to post that Cosmopolitan Bride magazine has featured another client’s wedding! Tom & Thalia’s beautiful reception was held in a marquee crammed with country flowers, hand-made bunting and vintage crockery. Thalia had sourced a lot of the china from charity shops, markets, and friends’ collections, and The Floral Madam...

The first time I saw The Godfather is something I will never forget, and my love for that film was cemented by the badly beaten, original seventies print I was watching. The fact it had been to hell and back made it all the more beautiful. My passion for film and cinema has been in...
