Lindsay & Ian | Skitby Wedding Photographer Carlisle It was such a gorgeous and sunny day when I first joined Lindsay for her bride prep at the well known Smith's Hotel in Gretna Green. She was getting ready in the Thistle Suite which had a beautiful balcony overlooking Gretna. Ian and Lindsay were married in Lockerbie, and went on to have their wedding reception at the gorgeous Skitby in Carlisle. The room had a pretty and rustic look with open beams, bunting and a cute travel theme that Lindsay had clearly put a lot of thought into - and lots of amazing cakes! For their wedding breakfast...

Caroline and Gordon were up to some pictures in the rain which was very brave but really helped to capture the day - even if the weather wasn't quite cooperating! The scenery...

Matt and Sarah were able to go outside and enjoy the grounds of the venue for both photographs and time together...

This lovely couple were married a few days ago at Linthwaite House Hotel, Cumbria. Every so often I get a booking for a small wedding, and Amanda and Tim decided they only wanted Amanda's Mum to join in on their day.  The date was very important to them all, and had great significance and meaning. These weddings always feel so incredibly special to capture. It's great working with brides and grooms who know exactly what they'd like for their wedding day. Celebrating with a few loved ones is just as important as a bigger...

Emily & Andrew | Wedding Photography Low Wood Bay Hotel The stunning Emily and Andrew were married last weekend at the gorgeous Low Wood Bay Hotel in Cumbria.

Although the weather was a very wet and dark, it certainly didn't dampen anyone's spirits and the venue itself was perfect with large windows and neutral backgrounds. One thing that is so adorable about Andrew and Emily is how in love they are!...

He is doing very well. He's such a sweet and handsome chilled out little chap. Much like his Daddy! This year has been such a joy, and to meet so many kind and wonderful people is, as always,...

It was such a beautiful day from start to finish, and although the weather was typically Cumbrian we had the perfect two hour window of sunshine for the photos before it started to pour down again along with thunder and lightening. We couldn't have wished for a better outcome with the weather as Emily had set up some lawn games outside for their guests to enjoy, including tandem space hoppers to use for a race! It was clear how much...
