Emily & David | Pre Wedding Photographer Wirral Country Park Meet the lovely Emily and David! We met up the other day for their pre wedding shoot at a location of their choice, the fabulous Wirral Country Park. It has special meaning for Emily who used to live nearby, and I can see why she recommended it! We took a stroll down onto the beach, then up through some woods and along the cliff side. We were even greeted by a friendly dog running past who decided to be a part of the shoot! The weather couldn't have been kinder on us, it was a perfect day and location. Emily and David, I can't...

Kerry & Lee | Pre Wedding Photographer Cumbria Meet Kerry and Lee! This fun couple will soon be getting married at the gorgeous Linthwaite House Hotel in Cumbria. We met up there for their pre wedding shoot, and managed to even find a bit of sunshine before the rain came! It's always so nice meeting couples before the wedding day so we can chat about their plans for the day, and if they have  a pre wedding shoot they can see how I work and no doubt this will make them more relaxed about the wedding as they'll see that the photos will be laid back and relaxed, no awkward cheesy posing. Kerry...

Gemma & Michael | Armathwaite Hall Wedding Photographer The gorgeous Gemma and Michael were married at Armathwaite Hall in Cumbria on Friday. Writing a little review about their day is proving difficult, as my words can't match their expressions of pure joy and happiness! But to sum it up, the weather was stunning, letting us fully enjoy the view over the Lake. Everyone was so incredibly friendly, and clearly enjoyed themselves. And Gemma and Michael were obviously in perfect happiness, from the first time they set eyes on each other at the ceremony until I finished after their first dance....

Ranall & Wade | Pre Wedding Photographer Lancashire Meet Ranall and Wade! This lovely couple met up with me for their pre wedding shoot on one of the prettiest Spring days we've had so far this year. We had such a nice time, they were so perfectly relaxed and happy together, and a joy to photograph! I love shoots like this, Wade and Ranall certainly made my job an easy one. And they seemed to enjoy it as much as I did! It was made even more surreal by the man mixing in the middle of the grass. It certainly added to the almost Summer feel of the sunshine! Ranall and Wade, thanks for asking...

Joanne & Kel | Wedding Photographer West Tower The gorgeous Joanne and Kel got married at West Tower wedding venue in Liverpool. It's not often I come across one photo that I feel is an appropriate sneak peek on its own, but this one certainly is! From start to finish the atmosphere was fantastic, their friends and family were all up for a party from the start. Add to it this gorgeous venue, beautiful sunshine and lots of fun, once Joanne and Kel made their entrance onto the dance floor in the evening for their first dance the mood was electric. Joanne and Kel, thanks very much for asking...

Gemma & Michael | Pre Wedding Photographer Preston Meet Gemma and Michael! I had the pleasure of photographing this lovely couple the other day for their pre wedding shoot. The day was incredibly wet, but we had a break in the rain for their shoot which was ideal. We had a lovely chat about all of their plans and how they've come together. I always recommend a pre wedding shoot for couples, as it helps them relax and see how it will feel to have their bride and groom portraits on their wedding day. Always keeping posing to a minimum, you can get lost in each others company and have a giggle...

Noah | Baby Photographer Preston Lancashire I'm afraid this blog post should come with a warning label:  Open at your own risk, broodiness likely! Meet Noah, perhaps one of the cutest boys around. When we first met he greeted me with the biggest smile, and even a chuckle. I knew from the start that he was going to be a total pleasure to work with! At only three months old he is constantly smiling and laughing, he was simply adorable. From start to finish Noah was a joy to be around and photograph, he was so patient and smiley. He only got upset very briefly, and was back to being a lovely...
