Ibiza Wedding Photography Spain | Cathryn & Tom Wow, where do I start with this amazing day! Cathryn first approached me about a month ago asking if I can capture her wedding vow renewal in the perfect location on Ibiza. She wanted to surprise her new hubby Tom, as Ibiza holds a special emotional attachment for them as that's where they've often travelled together, and even got engaged. Of course I was more than happy to join in with the adventure, and even though I was booked for the initial date she suggested we worked out a date we could all do. We started off for their vow renewal...

Sian & Phil | Wedding Photographer Cumbria Sneak Peek I had the pleasure of joining the lovely Sian and Phil for their beautiful and intimate wedding at Linthwaite House Hotel last weekend. There is something truly special about photographing smaller weddings, and even though this wasn't tiny in numbers, it was still cosy and they wanted all natural photos which is always a joy to capture! Everyone had a great time, and I can honestly say that the people there were some of the friendliest I've come across as a wedding. Sian and Phil, thank you both so much for asking me to join you as your...

Joe & Kim | Gretna Green Wedding Photography Teaser Kim and Joe first emailed me a while back and told me they were getting married in beautiful Gretna Green, Scotland. They were after natural, non cheesy photos which excited me as that's what I love best! We had such a beautiful day together, although the weather was typical of Scotland where it was raining one minute and sunny the next, everyone had a lovely day and it was a true pleasure to work with them both and capture their lovely day. In the evening I snuck Joe and Kim off into a field behind The Mill Forge for some photos, it was absolutely...

Baby Luka | New Baby Photographer Preston Meet the gorgeous baby Luka and his three equally gorgeous sisters! This beautiful little family including their Mummy Vicky were a pleasure to meet up with and photograph during Luka's new baby shoot at eight weeks old. Photographing babies and children is always a pleasure, they are often naturals in front of the camera and their expressions can be so relaxed and innocent compared to a self conscious adult. This little family certainly were beautifully natural in front of the lens! And we all managed to have fun which is the most important thing,...

Laura & Mark | Alma Inn Wedding Photography Teaser I honestly don't know where to start with these two! How on earth can you pick just a couple photos, and use just a few words to sum up such an amazing wedding?! Laura and Mark were so much fun, incredibly in love, and their family and friends were a pure delight to be around. Mark is in a band, and during his speech he sang a song he wrote himself and played the guitar serenading Laura.  The weather was glorious, we were able to catch the golden hour in a nearby field to take some pictures of just the two of them. There is so much I want...

Stanley House Hotel Wedding Photographer The amazing Stanley House Hotel is an award winning hotel set in gorgeous Ribble Valley countryside. A very elegant venue it's certainly somewhere you should look at if you're after a venue in Lancashire. It's a 17th century manor house, privately owned and run by the Walker family, as a grade II listed building it has a lovely rustic feeling about it. It has manicured grounds, but also a lovely path passing behind the spa where you can sneak into a field or two for stunning views and beautiful long grass.       For more of my work...

Becki's Family Shoot | Lifestyle Photographer Preston Photographing families is an incredible privilege. Weddings are wonderful, so and engagement shoots, but to capture children and sometimes the older generation is something special. The beautiful Becki and her gorgeous family invited me to their stunning gardens behind their home in Penwortham to photograph them and their little boy enjoying themselves in the stunning Summer sunshine. This certain little man looked a bit suspicious of me at first, I suppose I was the silly lady with the camera and funny walking cast on her leg! But I soon...

Jo & Simon | Engagement Photographer Preston The other day I had the pleasure of meeting up with the lovely Jo and Simon for their pre-wedding engagement shoot. It's always a joy to join couples before their wedding day as we get a change to chat about the wedding in person, and to see that excitement and anticipation on each couple  is lovely! For their shoot we chose a dry Autumn day, enjoying a stroll around the park with the beautiful autumn leaves and colours. Jo and Simon are one of those couples that are clearly very comfortable together, which always looks great in the photos! Jo...

Kay & Steve | Linthwaite House Wedding Photography Cumbria Set at the stunning Linthwaite House Hotel in Cumbria, Kay and Steve's day was a beautiful one. The theme was a vintage style with apples, and the greens really complimented the hotel perfectly. Kay mentioned that she was a huge fan of Pinterest and had found many of her lovely ideas from there, including her absolutely stunning wedding dress which I instantly fell in love with! One thing that's perfect about Linthwaite is the chilled out relaxed atmosphere, every wedding I've ever shot there has been a joy. Steve and Kay's day was no exception....
