Jo & Gary | Pre Wedding Photography Lancashire I met up with the lovely Jo and Gary a few days ago for their  pre weddings shoot. I'd originally met them a while back for a potential client meeting. It struck me how relaxed and chilled they are, and I was pleased when they asked me to be their wedding photographer. On the day of their shoot we met up on a weekday while their gorgeous girls were at school, but I look forward to photographing them too soon at the wedding. The day of the shoot the weather was perfect, beautiful sunshine and it was early enough in the day that the sun wasn't...

Magda & Richard | Linthwaite House Hotel Wedding Photography Cumbria I met up with Richard and Magda the night before their wedding day, as they were having a BBQ at Linthwaite House Hotel with all their wedding guests before tying the knot the next day. I loved meeting all of the guests before the big day, and I can honestly say that at the wedding I felt at home. I've never had so many people talk to me before, it was lovely! I always find wedding write ups difficult as there is so much to say each day, and I can't possibly think of words to describe the day as well as I can capture...

Mitton Hall Sneak Peek | Lancashire Wedding Photography All of my brides are beautiful. Each wedding is unique, and I enjoy every single one. But every so often you get a combo that makes a particular image that lasts in your memory for a long time. This sneak peek of the very beautiful Amelia from one of my weddings last week is certainly that. I chose this image below as Danny and Amelia's sneak peek, as it jumped out at me on their wedding day. Amelia had sat down to have her hair adjusted by her bridesmaid and mother. The bride's stunning elegance blends perfectly with the majestic bedroom...

Amelia & Danny | Pre Wedding Photography Lancashire Introducing the stunning Amelia and Danny. I had the pleasure of photographing their pre-wedding shoot for them the other day in a beautiful park nearby. Sadly the weather was not on our side this time, but we made the most of an interesting disused railway bridge with a bit of flash to give the photographs some atmosphere. I met Amelia and Danny a couple months ago, so it was nice to meet up with them a second time before their big day. They will soon be getting married at the gorgeous Mitton Hall in Clitheroe, I can't wait to join...

Adrian & Elizabeth | Pre Wedding Photography Lancashire I met up with the lovely couple Adrian and Liz the other day for their pre-wedding shoot. They are a friendly, fun couple who brought along their puppy Hattie. She is perhaps the cutest puppy alive! We were blessed with stunning weather as we walked around the park, making the most of the sun as it was going down for the evening. It wasn't quite golden hour, but it was close enough, as the light gave a beautiful glow to the photographs. I will be joining them for their wedding day this September, so it's always exciting finding out how the plans...

Phillipa & Graham | Cumbria Wedding Photography Loweswater Graham and Philippa's day was one filled with so much fun, love and laughter. Never before have I been to a day dedicated to having so much fun. It's difficult to know where to start with this one, as it was jam packed with so many interesting details. Just a few highlights: An outdoors ceremony next to Loweswater, Lake District A walk through woods with wellies on route to the wedding reception Many, many games for all the guests such as Pooh sticks, skimming stones, a swing by the lake, giant garden Jenga... the list goes...

Matty & Lyndsey | Gretna Green Wedding Photography Scotland Recently I had the pleasure of running off to Gretna Green, Scotland to shoot a stunning wedding.  The day was an incredible one, my little family and I enjoyed a weekend away where we were able to join in with the festivities as I was working as their wedding photographer. The day felt like it had so much more meaning as it was a family wedding, I am always attached to my brides and grooms as I get to know them before the big day, but when it's family... it's a whole different level! Despite torrential rain for a majority of the morning...

Paul & Debbie | Portmeirion Wedding Photography Wales Of all the couples that I work for, they all have one thing in common -  they are in love. But for some couples, their love really shines through and is plain for all to see. Debbie and Paul are certainly one of those couples! One interesting fact I found out about Paul early on is that he is a cameraman for ITV, he films on the set of Emmerdale. Among the guests were some of his crew members from ITV. The general atmosphere of the day from all family, friends and workmates was one of joy, fun and laughter. A few memorable moments...

Wedding Photography Lancashire & Cumbria I was back at one of my absolute favourite wedding venues this weekend, the very stunning Linthwaite House Hotel in Cumbria. Overlooking Lake Windermere, it's an amazing location on a normal day, but to be there in the sunshine... it's paradise! I was at Linthwaite a few weeks ago for Richard and Magda's Pre Wedding Shoot, where the trees were still lacking leaves and the flowers were not yet in bloom. We were blessed on Saturday, as the leaves and flowers have now come out giving the gardens and scenery extra beauty. Magda is Polish, as her parents...

Pure Emotion | Documentary Lancashire Wedding Photography Documentary wedding photography, reportage wedding photography, wedding photojournalism... whatever you want to call it, it's a large part of my style and aim as a wedding photographer. I always work to keep posing down to a minimum, allowing more emotion and natural moments to be captured on your big day. Acting as a fly on the wall for a large majority of the day, I let you get on enjoying yourself, and am as unobtrusive as possible. I recently shot a wedding at Gretna Green, Scotland. I was incredibly privileged to witness this...
