The web forwarding is used to point your 'naked' domain (doublebarrelphotography.co.uk) to the www version of your site (www.doublebarrelphotography.co.uk). This part is to ensure your domain can be accessed, whether or not the end user types in the www part. So, what you'd need to do is to forward your domain to www.doublebarrelphotography.co.uk (with the www part), and select the option "refresh to forwarding URL", like this:
Once you've done that, you should be able to enter in www.doublebarrelphotography.co.uk in your SmugMug Account Settings to complete the domain setup.
