Portmeirion Wedding Photographer Wales Working as a wedding photographer has always been an adventure taking me to many places I never expected to go. I have had the pleasure of shooting weddings abroad twice in both Italy and Spain, and I frequently get to travel up to Scotland and to Wales to join couples for their special day, as well as the whole of the UK. One of my absolute favourite venues to visit is Portmeirion which is a village created to look like a little Italian town. It sits on the hillside next to the sea, and the views are always so beautiful. It's easy to actually feel...

Katy & Andrew | Pre Wedding Photography Lancashire I had the pleasure of meeting up with Katy and Andrew the other day for their pre- wedding shoot at a favourite park in Preston, Lancashire. A pre wedding shoot is always a welcome addition to a wedding package, as it enables a couple to get used to how it will feel to be photographed on their wedding day. It also gives us an opportunity to catch up about the wedding details, which can add to the excitement of the day. It was beautifully sunny for their shoot, which made for some nice light in the park. Here's hoping it's just as nice for...

Bronwyn & Leon | Wedding Photographer Portmeirion Meet Bronwyn and Leon! This amazing couple were married a few days ago at the stunning location of Portmeirion which is in North Wales. Every wedding has a certain feel, and this one was full of such warmth and friendly people, and the bride herself was such a beautiful person inside and out! It's not every day a bride absolutely insists on helping me carry my camera gear. Bronwyn did exactly that, as I was setting up for the evening reception. Portmeirion was made to look like an Italian village, and the quirkiness was the perfect backdrop...

Family Photographer | Cumbria Family Photography Meet this gorgeous family! When my wedding clients Michelle and Dominic contacted me asking if I would do a family photo shoot for them to celebrate Michelle's parents 40th wedding anniversary, I jumped at the chance! We had a lovely time in Cumbria where they were spending some time on holiday. We took a walk down to the pier and despite the weather being cloudy it was perfect light for flattering portraits in more natural surroundings than a studio. The star of the show had to be little Tilly who was super cute! Michelle, Dominic and family...

Kaye & Michael | Wedding Photography Gretna Green Scotland Meet the gorgeous Kaye and Michael and their beautiful little family. They decided to run off to Gretna Green, just the five of them. There is something so special about a small and intimate wedding, with just family members. It was an extra privilege for me as they asked me to be a witness and sign the register along with Kaye's wonderful make up artist. Gretna Green is such a popular location for obvious reasons, but it's exciting to be asked to travel there to capture more natural photographs amid the tourist hot spot. Kaye...

Lauren & Jason | Rowton Castle Wedding Photographer Jason and Lauren had a fairytale wedding at Rowton Castle in Shropshire. It was a perfect location - a stunning castle background from the 17th Century. Their day was a lovely and intimate one, shared by just 13 of their closest family and friends - some who came all the way from America. From start to finish the day was relaxed and fun. Smaller weddings are always a pleasure to photograph - a different atmosphere to a larger day, they are so special in their own right when couples don't want an overwhelming number of guests. Although...

Katie & John | Family Photographer Lancashire Meet Katie & John and their little family. I had the pleasure of photographing them with their gorgeous son a couple years ago, when he was tiny. It was so special for them to invite me back to photograph his new adorable little sister, and the whole family together at their home. There's something touching about seeing clients a few years down the line, when they've started a family, or when their family has expanded! I love doing shoots at houses, often it provides a much more relaxed atmosphere for everyone, especially for the kids when...
