Melissa & Adam | Merrydale Manor Wedding Photography Cheshire Meet Melissa, Adam and their gorgeous daughter Lily! This lovely little family were recently married at Merrydale Manor in Knutsford, Cheshire. The wedding venue gives a perfect relaxed Country feel with a touch of class- surrounded by fields it made a pretty backdrop for their wedding day. I had the pleasure of working alongside the talented Sam Wilkinson Videography who had travelled all the way from Essex! We were spoiled for choice during bride prep in the spacious rooms, and the weather was unexpectedly sunny (despite...

This beautiful couple were married in Gretna Green registry office and had their reception at the rather stunning Dalston Hall in Carlisle. Despite a rather wet day, they had planned such a chilled and relaxed wedding that it didn't add any stress.

Louise and Ryan had planned this all along- a relaxed and fun day for their guests on the campsite / barn conversion which must have been so much fun for their guests to stay on site with them!

Isaac & Bryony | Lady Margaret Hall Wedding Photographer Nottinghamshire Meet Isaac and Bryony! Every once in a while I'm asked to photograph a wedding for a friend, and it's such a huge privilege to capture photos for someone I know. My little family and I met Isaac on an epic camping trip where he left quite an impression - from hunting down huge logs to light a fire, warming his feet in the flames but most memorable was his kindness towards everyone there. Meeting Bryony it was easy to see what a perfect match they are - they clearly compliment each other! The evening reception...

Catherine & Marcus | Nunsmere Hall Cheshire Wedding Photographer Meet Catherine, Marcus and their gorgeous daughter, Isabella! I joined them for their wedding at Nunsmere Hall in Cheshire. The day was one full of so much sunshine, love and laughter. Catherine was very organised and had planned some beautiful personal touches. From the bigger things- an old fashioned ice cream cart, the wonderful Sing Along Waiters leaving everyone crying with laughter, the touching violin solos of Craig Owen - down to the tiny details such as the photos of Catherine's loved ones on her bridal bouquet....

Family Photographer Center Parcs | Whinfell Forest Meet Vicki and her gorgeous family! They asked me to join them for a family photo shoot at Center Parcs, Whinfell Forest in Penrith. I love being able to join families on holiday, when they're together perhaps on a rare occasion due to distance or busy lives. We had a glorious day, one of the only nice days for quite some time which was such a big surprise! We took a stroll through the forest together while I picked out pockets of nice light for photos, and it's always easy to find good spots for the kids to have a run, jump and explore...

Lewi & Izzie | The Lodge Mesnes Park Wow! Where do I start with this one?! Meet the gorgeous Izzie and Lewi. They were married at The Lodge at Mesnes Park, Wigan. Their wedding reception took place at Mawdesley Village Hall, West Lancashire. The day started out with a Met Office forecast of thunderstorms and incoming torrential rain. Just in time for the formal group photos! I confess, I very rarely worry about the weather as I can work with some rain but this was looking a bit grim. Instead of storms we were given dry skies and beautiful light to work with - allowing us to take the family...

Center Parcs Photo Shoot | Cumbria Family Photographer Meet Barbara, Jason and their gorgeous family! They asked me to join them in Center Parcs at Whinfell Forest, Cumbria for a family photo shoot. We had the perfect winter backdrop! Under an expanse of fog the ground and forest was frozen with a deep frost. Despite the cold, everyone was in good spirits as we walked to the hidden pond. It was a special location for this December shoot-completely frozen along with all foliage, it was magical. It was so much fun for me to drop in and capture some memories for them enjoying their special...

Emma Family Shoot | Fell Foot Park Photography I photographed this stunning little family about 4 years ago in Fell Foot Park, Cumbria. The lovely Emma got in touch recently to ask if I could take some updated photos of her little crew. I was so excited to see them again, and it honestly felt like catching up with friends rather than work. I always try to keep things fun when photographing children, always choosing large open spaces to give them plenty of room to be themselves in between posing for a few more formal photographs. These four are SO much fun together! They're incredibly...
