Claire's Family Photography Center Parcs Whinfell Forest
Meet Claire and her beautiful family! They got together for a holiday at the Treehouses in Center Parcs, Whinfell Forest in Penrith.
This family were so much fun to photograph! Not taking themselves too seriously, it was perfect for their photos. They came up with a bunch of relaxed and hilarious poses (to go along with the more serious) which added a great variety to their shoot. It's always a pleasure to be asked to photograph bigger families as they often only get together once in a while.
Claire (and family!) it was so nice...
Matt's Family Photography Penrith Cazenovia Hall
Meet Matt and his gorgeous family! They got together for a holiday at the stunning Cazenovia Hall in Penrith, Cumbria. The reason for getting together was a very special occasion as Matt's parents were celebrating their Ruby wedding anniversary. 40 wonderful years together!
We had a lovely time making the most of the gardens at Cazenovia Hall, as well as using the interior for some more natural shots of the family as they enjoyed some time together. Despite a wet start the weather was glorious by afternoon so we were even able to take some...
Geraldine's Maternity Shoot Preston Photographer
Meet the gorgeous Geraldine and her beautiful little family. I had the pleasure of meeting with them for Geraldine's maternity photo shoot in Avenham Park in Preston, Lancashire.
On the day of the shoot there was a rave going on in the park which was certainly a first. It was entertaining to say the least! We also had some lovely sunshine which made for some gorgeous light.
Avenham park is perfect for photo shoots, I've always enjoying going there for engagement, family and maternity sessions. It's a large park filled with trees, hills,...
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...
Beeston Manor Wedding Photographer Preston
One type of wedding venue always excites me - converted barns! Often steeped with so much history, they offer quirky little details that can make your wedding venue unique. Also usually situated in countryside, they are surrounded by gorgeous fields and landscaping that can provide not only a lovely backdrop for your guests to enjoy, but your wedding photos.
There's something special about using wilder scenery for wedding photos - forests, ponds, beach fronts and vast sweeping fields. Your wedding photos are guaranteed to look beautiful.
Beeston...
