Winner of Picture of the Year 2014!
To be quite honest all I can think of to say is eeeeeeekkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!!! But as that's more of a noise and nothing else, I will try harder! Winner of Picture of the Year on the prestigious wedding blog The Wedding Community. Again!? I honestly can't believe it! I've been walking around all day in a blur trying to process the information but it's not quite going in. Once again the incredible support from all friends, family and even people I don't know has been so touching. I mean it when I say that you all have no idea how much it means to me. To see how many...
Venue La Villa | Destination Wedding Photographer Italy
This time of year is lovely. Cosy Winter weddings have a warm feel to them, and snuggling up to a real log fire certainly has its perks. But I'd be lying if I didn't admit that it's this very time of year when I reflect on the previous Summer and the gorgeous weddings I had a pleasure of shooting. Of course one of the biggest highlights was the stunning wedding venue in Piedmont, Italy.
Set with a view of gorgeous Italian hills, nestled in with row upon row of grape vines, La Villa is definitely a venue that I hope of one day having...
Fine Art Wedding Albums | Beautiful Italian Wedding
There's something a bit special about seeing photographs printed in a book, instead of on a computer screen or mobile device. Kayleigh and Simon's wedding in the beautiful Piedmont, Italy certainly came to life in their album. They chose a simple and classy ivory leather for the cover, to fit in perfectly with their bright and sunny Italian wedding. Here's a few sample pages from their album, but obviously to enjoy the true beauty of the albums they must be seen in real life!

India and Matthew, thank you both so much for asking me to be your photographer! It was such a pleasure to join you, and thank you for making me feel so welcome and at home...
Corissa & Martin | Anglesey Wedding Photographer Wales
The beautiful Corissa and Martin celebrated their beautiful day on the island of Anglesey, Wales. It was a stunning wedding from start to finish, but what really struck me was how friendly and fun everyone was to be around! You can have a beautiful wedding, but if the people aren't lovely there's something missing. Corissa and Martin's day was definitely complete! Taking place on the cliff side overlooking the sea, Corissa chose to get ready at her In-law's beautiful house which is also where the evening reception took place in a beautiful...
Jess & Bob | Linthwaite House Wedding Photographer Cumbria
It's hard to know where to start with the write up about this wedding! Jess and Bob. They're one of these couples that you instantly feel at ease with. The level of kindness they showed on the day was incredibly high, which meant a lot. Combine this lovely couple with one of my favourite wedding venues of all time, Linthwaite House Hotel in Cumbria, and you've got yourself a winning combination!
The day was perfect, full of so much laughter and the wonderful laid back atmosphere that Linthwaite is known for. Jess and Bob celebrated...
Ibiza Wedding Photography Spain | Cathryn & Tom
Wow, where do I start with this amazing day! Cathryn first approached me about a month ago asking if I can capture her wedding vow renewal in the perfect location on Ibiza. She wanted to surprise her new hubby Tom, as Ibiza holds a special emotional attachment for them as that's where they've often travelled together, and even got engaged. Of course I was more than happy to join in with the adventure, and even though I was booked for the initial date she suggested we worked out a date we could all do.
We started off for their vow renewal...

Brand New Logo | Karli Harrison Photography
Sometimes it's time for a change. It is crazy how it can feel a bit scary, steering away from what you've grown used to for what seems like such a long time. But it's with much excitement that I reveal the new logo for Karli Harrison Photography. It was created by a very talented lady in America called Kimmy, who has such a wonderful way of working with clients and making sure they are 100% happy with their new design. I originally contacted her with a completely different idea to this one, but when she sent me the mood boards, I saw this and I instantly...
Steph & Chris | Palm House Wedding Photography Sefton Park
It was a perfect Summer's day, and with the sound of distant Reggae music coming from a concert in Sefton Park, it almost felt like we were abroad for a spectacular day! Steph was certainly one chilled out bride when I joined her and her family while they were getting ready. It was such a relaxed and happy wedding from the very beginning, which was made even more special by the location choice for their reception at the incredibly beautiful Sefton Palm House. Being a giant glass house, the Palm House let in the most beautiful evening...
