Carlisle Wedding Photographer Cumbria One of the many places I end up travelling to for my wedding photography is Cumbria. It's easily one of the most gorgeous and scenic locations to visit in the UK! It's always a pleasure to get many weddings based in this area. Carlisle is one of my most popular locations for my portrait photography, as I get many family photo shoots based in the area. Despite the popularity for families, it's also been a popular area for weddings as well. I've had the pleasure of photographing weddings all over England, Scotland, Wales, Italy and Spain. I tend...

I Don't Want My Pictures on Social Media or Online, is That Possible? A number of times over the years, just once in a while, I get a request to keep a potential client's photos off social media and my blog. How do I, as the photographer, feel about this? I completely and utterly understand not wanting photos online! Especially when it comes to your children, you may not want to have those photos in plain sight for just anyone to see. Also your privacy is very important, and you may simply wish not to have your photos online. I always work along with a client - if they prefer to keep...

Lancashire Wedding Photographer Near Me Often people come across my website by Googling "wedding photographer near me". It's definitely a huge plus if a photographer has been to your wedding venue before, but personally I find myself travelling all across the UK - and I've even photographed weddings in Italy and Spain! So if a photographer hasn't been to your wedding venue before but you love their work, what can you do? I usually have a trial run of the wedding venue(s) before the big day. You just never know if that little place in the country isn't recognised by Google Maps, or if the timings...

Emma's Whinfell Forest Family Photography Meet Emma and her gorgeous little family! I had the privilege of joining them last weekend at Whinfell Forest Center Parcs in Cumbria. We had a nice stroll together, making the most of the lush greenery of the trees for their photos. The main wildlife to be seen were the friendly ducks, no doubt hoping for some free handouts! The weather was overcast, but yet bright enough to provide some nice light for Emma's photos. As pretty as sunshine can be, working with diffused overcast light is much more flattering. Less harsh shadows and no squinting subjects!...

Maternity Photographer Preston Lancashire It's such a privilege to be able to capture such precious and huge milestones in the lives of my clients! I don't only work as a wedding photographer, I also offer engagement shoots, maternity, baby and family photo shoots too. I clover the whole of the UK and the beauty of working at different locations is a client can choose where to have their shoot. I don't sit them down in a studio, we get to explore and make the most of nature around us. The most natural photos possible! Photographing an expectant mother is always exciting. We get to have...

Ross & Family Whinfell Forest Photography Meet Ross and family! I had the pleasure of meeting them at Center Parcs in Whinfell Forest. This shoot was so much fun as there were lots of lovely kids in their family to photograph. Kids always bring life and adventure to any photos! This can also be a challenge, although these parents were excellent at coming up with ways to get their attention. The kids were little superstars and we got all the shots requested - success! After the main part of the shoot finished we headed over to the large play park where the kids got to run free and I captured...

Louise & Ryan | The Barn at Wayside Wedding Photographer Shropshire Oh where do I start with this one?! Louise and Ryan were married at the gorgeous and unique The Barn at Wayside in Shropshire. From start to finish the day was super relaxed, and I can honestly say I've never met a more chilled groom! Not long before the ceremony he was in a t-shirt getting things set up and ready to go. Louise and Ryan had planned this all along- a relaxed and fun day for their guests on the campsite / barn conversion which must have been so much fun for their guests to stay on site with them! Louise...

The day was one full of so much sunshine, love and laughter. Catherine was very organised and had planned some beautiful personal touches.

They clearly put a lot of thought and planning into all of the little details, from Harshana's bride prep at the iconic...
