Nicola & David | Pre Wedding Photographer Preston Lancashire I met up with my third couple of the year for their pre wedding shoot in a beautiful park in Preston, Lancashire. The weather was sadly once again not on our side, but I found myself with another beautifully smiley couple very much in love. This certainly made up for the rain,  wind and dull day! Despite battling a case of wind swept hair, an umbrella that spent half the time inside out, and at times heavy rain, we walked around the park and managed to find enough shelter to ditch the umbrellas temporarily. Dave and Nicola...

Business Photo Shoot | Lancashire Lifestyle Photographer Something I love about my job is the variety. Yes, 90% of my work can be weddings especially in the Summer, but mixed in with the weddings I get the pleasure of shooting baby and family photo shoots. Recently I met the lovely Lynsey who was after some pictures for her professional website. She helps women who have worked in a corporate or other professional environment create their own successful businesses, and she needed some shots of herself to personalise the website. Here are a few shots of the gorgeous Lynsey, she braved the cold...

Lauren & Tom | Pre Wedding Photography Cumbria Fell Foot Park I met up with Lauren and Tom for their pre wedding shoot at Fell Foot park in Cumbria, right next to Lake Windermere. Unfortunately it was one of those days. You know the ones. Where's it's chucking it down, and the wind is pounding you. As Lauren and Tom live in Edenburgh but were down in Cumbria visiting family our time to meet was short so we decided to go ahead. Despite the weather, I'm sure you'll agree from looking at the pictures that it didn't dampen their spirits! We all had a fun time together and they were a true pleasure...

Winner of Picture of the Month | The Wedding Community It is with much excitement and surprise that I once again find myself the winner of 'Picture of the Month' on The Wedding Community! I had the privilege of winning July 2012 with another picture, then going on to win the whole competition 'Picture of the Year' January 2013. I decided to lay low for a year, but I soon received emails from both Kim and David from The Wedding Community asking if they can feature my picture of the beautiful Amelia as Picture of the Day. Of course I couldn't say no, so here I find myself back at 'Picture of the Month'! I...

Emma & Tim | Pre Wedding Photography Preston I met up with Emma and Tim at a beautiful local park for their pre wedding shoot. This is always an exciting time, as we get the chance to chat about the plans for their wedding which makes it all feel more real. Engagement shoots are also useful for a couple to get to see how I work with the camera, so they feel extra relaxed on their wedding day as I will feel more like a friend than a stranger. The actual day was gloriously sunny, which made a nice change to the horrendous stormy weather we had been experiencing for days before! The park...

Kirsty & Marcus | Pre Wedding Photography The Continental I met up with one of my wedding couples for their pre wedding shoot at The Continental pub in Preston. It was a bit of a different photo shoot for me, as Kirsty and Marcus requested we take the pictures inside the pub instead of the park as it was more their style. I was all for it, it's refreshing doing something different! The day we met up, the pub was absolutely packed. Despite this, we still managed to use what we had to capture a few shots. I think it's obvious how in love they both are, that was easy to capture! I'm looking...

Wedding Photography on USB | Lancashire Wedding Photography It's time for change. Having always used discs to present couples with their wedding images, it is with much excitement that I announce that all wedding photographs I provide will now come on USB in a beautiful presentation case. I've finally taken the plunge, after a couple of recent disc problems, it gave me that extra push I needed to try something new. Besides looking nicer and more modern, they are said to be more reliable, which is incredibly important when providing precious memories for my couples. The last thing I'd want is for their...
