Hayley & Gareth | Pre Wedding Photography Preston
I had the absolute pleasure of meeting up with Hayley and Gareth the other day for their pre wedding shoot in Preston. They are one of those couples that are very much in love, and it was nice to see that they enjoyed themselves for their shoot! Hayley was a natural in front of the camera, despite feeling a tad apprehensive beforehand. I always aim to keep engagement shoots simple, fun and fresh, to put a couple as much at ease as possible. After all, it's a great trial run for their big day, seeing how it will feel to be the stars of the show!

Michelle & Rob | Criccieth Wedding Photography Wales
I think whatever I say is simply not going to be enough to describe Michelle & Rob's amazing wedding day! I first got an email from Rob a month ago, his wedding photographer had cancelled last minute and they were desperate to find someone. Surprisingly I was free (unusual this time of year!) and I jumped at the chance to join them both in the stunning town of Criccieth in Wales. I had recently worked at the beautiful Portmeirion which is very close to Criccieth, so was over the moon to get invited back to Wales so soon after my last...
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...
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...
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...
Jade & Chris - Statham Lodge Wedding Photography Cheshire
I joined Chris and Jade at the stunning Statham Lodge in Cheshire for their big day. I first heard from Chris a few months ago, when he enquired about a last minute wedding. Their wedding was a bit rushed as he will soon be deployed as he works for the Navy. Once I'd met up with them for their pre wedding shoot, I was over the moon that I happened to be free! Statham Lodge is a stunning wedding venue, like no other that I've worked at before. Not to mention that Chris and Jade are a beautiful couple, inside and out. This made working...
I had the privilege of joining the lovely Jenna Carpenter Photography in capturing the Cumbria wedding photography of Catriona and Tristan. She had asked me to help photograph their day, and I was more than happy to accept! I have worked with Jenna a couple of times before, and we always have a wonderful time. The morning was a very relaxed one, starting off with a delicious looking breakfast of salmon and bagels in the family home. The house is simply gorgeous, set in the beautiful Lake District. The family are very musical and run a company from their own home. Music was very much a strong theme...
I recently had the pleasure of working at Statham Lodge Country House Hotel in Cheshire for a pre wedding shoot for one of my couples. This year I am going to be working as their wedding photographer, which I'm really excited about! I've enjoyed capturing Cheshire wedding photography before, but I had never been to this wedding venue.
The building itself is absolutely stunning, a Georgian manor house hotel. It gives a beautiful backdrop for any day, but is especially gorgeous for a wedding. Set in landscaped gardens, and surrounded by fields, this wedding venue has lovely views of Cheshire...
Chris and Jade are going to be my first wedding this year, so it was exciting meeting them at Statham Lodge for their pre wedding photography. It was a gloriously sunny day as I made my way to Statham, but typically about five minutes after I arrived it clouded over. Needless to say it didn't ruin our engagement shoot! I love being able to meet with couples at the actual venue where they will be getting married. As we had a look around the gardens, we were able to explore all of the options we will have on the day for their photographs. We were also kindly allowed to have a peek inside the rooms...
